The Bible is just a book. What matters is what you do with it. If you choose to interpret it in such a way that requires you you treat women as second-class citizens, or to be a bigot when it comes to gay and trans people, that’s not the book. That’s YOU.

If universities *really* want to prepare young people for the modern corporate world, they should be assigned more than they can possibly complete, and tests should cover material that wasn’t taught.

Appeals to humanity or empathy in public policy don’t work on people who view morality as authority-based.
This is a stark example of why Christianity is so toxic in the political realm.

MAGA voters, when you talk about America being “great” again, what exactly does that mean to you?
What criteria will you use to determine when America is “great” again? What does that look like to you? What specifically will you expect to see to deem Trump a successful president?
Just curious.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.
It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

I’m sick and tired of the social media moguls cashing in on the outrage culture they cultivated.
It’s not some tragic accident.
It’s deliberate.
It’s unethical.
It’s unraveling the social fabric.
It’s only getting worse.
It has to stop, and only we can stop it.

We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today.
We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life & history, there is such a thing as being too late.
This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action.
