Counting Moral Indiscretions Is Not a Movie Review

Last updated on: October 10, 2012 at 3:19 pm By Brad Williams

My frustration with a recent movie review of Paranorman actually began a few months ago. I was preparing for a ministry trip to Tanzania; it’s a long flight, and I needed some stuff to read. A friend recommended Anansi Boys. (I have Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman series on my “one day I’m going to read that” list because I do not currently have a graphic novel budget.) This considerably cheaper book would be a good start for reading Gaiman. I... Read more

Is It OK to Fake a Disability to Skip Airport Lines?

Last updated on: October 10, 2012 at 7:03 am By Erin Straza

Rules are a part of living life in a civilized society. These rules keep our society in order, giving us a construct by which we can live life without a paralyzing amount of fear or distrust. For example, we trust that other drivers are obeying the traffic signals, making it possible for us to enter intersections with confidence when we have a green light. At some point, however, each of us has encountered a rule or two that we find... Read more

Thirty Years of the Compact Disc

Last updated on: October 10, 2012 at 3:56 pm By Nick Rynerson

On October 1st, 1982 the first CD player was released to the public. And despite what some may think of this supposed archaic music-transmitting device, it is still being used today at the premier physical musical playing device (besides of course, the computer). Sure we have, as a society, moved away from objects carrying our tunes and digitalized literally everything. But that is not to say that the CD does not have another thirty years ahead of it! As Megan Garber... Read more

Pulpit Freedom Sunday was Kind of Dumb

Last updated on: October 9, 2012 at 7:50 am By Brad Williams

Did you know that last Sunday was “Pulpit Freedom Sunday”? I heard stirrings a couple of weeks ago about a protest from evangelical leaders over the “Johnson Amendment”. Today, I read this little article by David Sessions in “The Daily Beast” that I pretty much completely agreed with. In short, the Johnson Amendment is what keeps non-profit organizations from officially endorsing candidates without endangering their tax-free status. It’s been on the books since 1954, and I would be surprised if... Read more
