There Is Nothing New Under The Sun.

In America, Now, Let Us - Christian, Jew, Muslim, Agnostic, Atheist, Wiccan, Whatever - Fight Nativism With The Same Strength And Conviction That We Fight Terrorism. My Faith Calls On Its Followers To Love One's Enemies. A Tall Order, That - Perhaps The Tallest Of All.

The Middle Class, One Of The Great Achievements In History, Is Becoming More Of A Relic Than A Reality.

Whenever There Is News Of A Terrible Shooting, I Wonder Why America Has So Miserably Failed To Enact Even Common-sense Gun Legislation.

It Is True That Traditional Christianity Is Losing Some Of Its Appeal Among Americans, But That Is A Religious, Not Political, Matter. It Is Worth Remembering That The Jeffersonian 'wall Of Separation' Between Church And State Has Always Been Intended To Protect The Church From The State As Much As The State From The Church.

If Heaven Is Understood More As God's Space On Earth Than As An Ethereal Region Apart From The Essential Reality We Know, Then What Happens On Earth Matters Even More Than We Think, For The Christian Life Becomes A Continuation Of The Unfolding Work Of Jesus, Who Will One Day Return To Set The World To Rights.
