Add Lightness and Simplicity: Dumb Church Means Dumbing Up Not Dumbing Down
When it comes to the Dumb Church idea that I wrote about...the aim is the same: to add lightness and simplicity. The approach is the same as the racing car. Anything that does not need to be there should not be there.
Did Jesus really say that?
It appears the Sermon on the Mount and other direct teachings of Jesus are the source of intense debate among some who are saying, in effect, that Jesus may believe those things but “he would be wrong.”
Legislating against ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’ is a danger to free speech
In an age of political division, the suggestion that opposition to a specific political figure could be classified as a mental health disorder is deeply concerning. Recently, some Minnesota lawmakers have proposed the formalization of “Trump Derangement Syndrome” as a legitimate mental health condition.
A British backpacker's ordeal in US immigration detention has prompted a warning from her father for travellers to meticulously check visa requirements before embarking on their journeys. Rebecca Burke, a 28-year-old graphic artist from Monmouthshire, endured a harrowing 19-day detention in a US facility.
In the Nicene Creed, we confess that “we believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.” But what do we mean by this confession?

We should not be afraid to pray big prayers. But then again, we should not be afraid to pray small prayers either.
Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. thinks that the bird flu should be allowed to spread unchecked to identify birds that could be immune.

In Russia critics of the regime have been classified as mentally ill and locked away in state psychiatric hospitals. What these legislators are proposing is a step in that direction.‘Traumatic’: British tourist sent home from US in chains after visa error
A British backpacker's ordeal in US immigration detention has prompted a warning from her father for travellers to meticulously check visa requirements before embarking on their journeys. Rebecca Burke, a 28-year-old graphic artist from Monmouthshire, endured a harrowing 19-day detention in a US facility.
