ELSEWHERE: Government Gone Wild!

Last updated on: May 15, 2013 at 1:30 pm   By S. L. Whitesell

Seizing media phone records! Using the IRS to target political enemies! Dithering while your ambassador is under attack! Times are tough in Columbia, even for our aristocrat overlords. Best part in this otherwise frightening barrage of executive malfeasance (or incompetence, your choice)? Tie between a de-mustached Axelrod conceding the entire case for conservatism, senior democrats confused about which scandal is being discussed, or the president losing Charlie Rangle, of all people. Read more

The IRS Targeted the Tea Party; Benghazi Cover Up

Last updated on: May 15, 2013 at 11:59 am   By Brad Williams

This scandal of the IRS targeting conservative organizations for audit is making conspiracy theorists seem less kooky. Combine that with John McCain talking about Benghazi today and trust in government may come to an all-time low. Which is pretty low already, right? Can we fall off the floor? Read more

Once upon a Time and the Redemption of Fairy Tales

Last updated on: May 15, 2013 at 9:07 am   By Geoffrey Reiter

On Sunday, ABC aired the second-season finale of its popular series Once upon a Time, with a third season confirmed for Fall 2013.  Capitalizing on the recent vogue for updated fairy tale treatments, Once upon a Time is set in the quaint town of Storybrooke, Maine, a town with a curious secret: it is populated by residents of other fantastic realms who were transplanted into our world as part of a curse by the wicked queen, who rules the town... Read more

Mad Men Recap 6.7: Are Good Deeds Ever Just Good Deeds?

Last updated on: May 15, 2013 at 6:43 am   By Nick Olson

Bob Benson always seems to be around. Whether conspicuously eavesdropping, or dropping in at opportune times, Bob has been something less than a full fledged character–more a recurring bit of odd comic relief. If you’re like me, you may be asking yourself over the course of this season: who is Bob Benson. If so, know that we’re not the only ones. It’s not just that Bob’s always around, but that he’s often always available to help. Whether he’s serving up... Read more

ELSEWHERE: We Know Less About Science and Religion Than Ever Before

Last updated on: May 14, 2013 at 1:10 pm   By Christopher Hutton

If the reports that writer Robert Joustra found are accurate, Christians know less about world religions and science than ever before.  Why? Joustra believes it is an issue of a break of trust.  I’m not sure if I agree with that conclusion or not, but Joustra’s reports are scary and reflective of the current interest in knowledge among Evangelicals. Read more

ELSEWHERE: Ayn Rand Really, Really, Really Disliked C.S. Lewis

Last updated on: May 14, 2013 at 11:22 am   By Jason Morehead

First Things recently posted a few excerpts from Ayn Rand’s marginal notes on C.S. Lewis’ Abolition of Man, and let’s just say that she didn’t hold back her disagreement… not one bit. For example, “abysmal scum” is one of the gentler descriptions of Lewis that she employs. Read more

Music Matters: Sweetly Singing over the Pain in Iron & Wine’s ‘Ghost on Ghost’

Last updated on: May 14, 2013 at 8:15 am   By Matthew Linder

Each Tuesday in Music Matters, Matthew Linder explores the intersections of music, culture, and faith. Iron & Wine’s new album explores pain and vulnerability within the context of a relationship’s many stages. Listen to the entire album on Spotify here. Listening to Iron & Wine is like wrapping yourself in a warm, soft, and cuddly blanket and drinking espresso while a poet recites stories of love from a coffee-shop stage. Reminiscent of the lush and intricately crafted soft rock of bands like The Carpenters and Air Supply, Iron & Wine’s Ghost... Read more
