I sincerely wish each and every one of you a wonderful Christmas Season. May we all take time to reflect upon the profound gift of the One who was so great that He emptied Himself (kenosis) of all His regal glory and power in order to be our earthly High Priest, able to fully [...]

The Bush administration was under court order not to discard evidence of detainee torture and abuse months before the CIA destroyed videotapes that revealed some of its harshest interrogation tactics.

Drash: Each generation has its own sins… Everyone has a share in the mess. And it really doesn’t do a lot of good to indulge in exercises of finger pointing. But what a blight the “hippie generation” has been to America! Since the 1960′s they have led this country to ruin and depravity…. Bill Clinton (spit) is [...]

Better late than never? No, in my mind it’s just a Pavlovian response to a situation that has already been consigned to the [...]
“Real isn’t how you are made,” said the Skin Horse. “It’s a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with but REALLY loves you, then you become Real. It doesn’t happen all at once. You become. It takes a long time.
