Props to Jew School for this story, but they linked to WND for the background which is, generally, about as trustworthy as a fishwife on crack withdrawal. So I googled for the story and found a real live newspaper version of the story at the Dayton Daily News. They’ve even got pictures.

What does it mean, in today’s world, to be a follower of God in the way of Jesus?
What does it mean to be a faith community engaged in the holistic, integral mission of God in our world today?
How do we, as individuals and faith communities, respond faithfully to the crises facing our world?
What is our [...]

Interesting article over at Street Prophets, responding to one pointed out by Rod Dreher.
This other article makes a clear point and one that I rightly agree with.
The only hope of resisting the partisans of secular intolerance is to clean up the Christian Right (Catholic and Protestant), to purge it of jingoism, anti-intellectualism, and end-of-the world [...]

One Million Blogs for Peace (of which Sarx is a member - are you?) has launched their Tuesday Topics: which will be a series of questions or blogging topics on Tuesdays… I’m game. Here’s this week’s offering:
Think back four years ago, to when you first heard that the Iraq War had started.
Were you [...]

Interesting. A Baptist scholar (president of an SBC seminary) says Homosexuality may be based on biology, and (rightly, I think for one who believes as he does) goes on to say that doesn’t justify it. But then says we can treat this in utero. Which last seems to me to be just [...]

Catholic World News (CWN) posts a story on HIV/AIDS that shows the two sides of life in Catholicdom (or Dumber, maybe). Archbishop Wilton Gregory speaks in compassion and love. The semi-anonymous commentary is another matter entirely.
There is also this story showing something of the kinder face.

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, and they are these: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, quarreling, rivalry, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envying, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such like. About these things I tell you again, as I have also told you in times past, that those who do such things shall [...]

Props to the folks over at Street Prophets for this story. Preaching Revolution. It’s an article that gives me a lot of hope for the Megachurch/Housechurch movement… just gimme one of these that is also Sacramental! Why are Christians divided that way? Grrf.
This new generation of Christian Revolutionaries most [...]

Rabbi Brant shares with us a resolution for Peace from the Reconstructionist Rabbis. Reconstructionism takes another step forward in being one of the coolest religious expressions out there! Considering the recent discussions in which progressive Jews are considered by conservatives to be anti-Semitic, I think this represents a brave risk for truth.
Whereas war [...]
