ELSEWHERE: Warner Brothers Helps Pastors Preach The Gospel According To Superman

Last updated on: June 17, 2013 at 9:54 am By Jason Morehead

Are you a pastor who is stuck for material for an upcoming sermon? Well, you might have heard that there’s a new Superman movie out. Warner Brothers has kindly gone through the trouble of preparing a handy-dandy sermon guide based on it. Now you can take the rest of the week off. (Obviously, this is, in no way, a crude marketing ploy just to get churchgoers to see the Man of Steel trailer.) Read more

How to Write a Hugely-Popular Piece for Huffington Post Religion

Last updated on: June 17, 2013 at 11:47 am By Derek Rishmawy

For theological and religious types, Huffington Post Religion (HuffPo) happens to be one of the more predominant avenues toward becoming involved in the online religious discussion. They typically feature big-name scholars and established bloggers, many of whom can be thought-provoking and helpful. But no one cares about that. The real traffic goes to another type of religion piece. As I’ve read and followed their posts over the past few years, I’ve noticed a few tried and true themes and threads... Read more

Last updated on: June 14, 2013 at 8:59 am By S. L. Whitesell

Round about when the College of Cardinals was selecting an Argentinian priest as the next bishop of Rome, Justin Welby was installed as the 105th Archbishop of Canterbury. The former you know as Pope Francis. The latter is the leader of the worldwide communion of Anglicans (after, of course, Her Majesty). The two will meet for the first time in their new posts on Friday. Like Francis, Welby has called the nations to righteousness. May the unity and purity of... Read more

Why Women Need Better Fairy Tales

Last updated on: June 14, 2013 at 7:34 am By Amy Lepine Peterson

Over at The Hairpin, Renee Lupica lists “Six Fairy Tales for the Modern Woman.” In her fairy tales, women live fulfilling lives even when they remain single or childless; they are free from violence, successful in their work, fulfill lifelong dreams, and learn to be content with their bodies. For example, Fairy Tale IV: Once upon a time a woman was very good at her job, and she knew she had added value to the company she worked for, so... Read more

Mad Men Recap 6.10 & 11: “Be Slick, Be Glib, Be You!” But Don Has Children, Too

Last updated on: June 14, 2013 at 7:06 am By Nick Olson

Mad Men Recap 6.10: “Be slick, be glib, be you!” Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce Cutler Gleason and Chaough have an identity crisis. “SCDPCGC” is the unofficial seven letter branding, but few people know it, and fewer still get it precisely right. Near the beginning of “A Tale of Two Cities,” the partners of the newly merged firm convene for a brief meeting in the boardroom, and Jim Cutler complains that they received mail addressed to Sterling Gleason and Pryce. “From...

ELSEWHERE: Russia Becoming the Rightwing Dictatorship That Never Was

Last updated on: June 13, 2013 at 1:20 pm By S. L. Whitesell

Most of the villains of the 20th century were animated by – or were cynical manipulators of – rational progressive ideologies, a phenomenon of the left. The Russian legislature, the State Duma, just passed some pretty strict measures that ban “propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations.” That would empty the newsstands in this country. This comes on the heels of a law that makes it illegal to offend religious feelings. Read more
