We will remember

June 16th, 2009

I believe this will be an image that we will look back on and remember the way many remember Tiananmen, twenty years later.

The revolution will be twittered

June 14th, 2009

In case you are not aware, there has been a vast amount of immediate coverage of Iran's election on Twitter the last couple of days.

We tortured.

April 20th, 2009

In the last couple of weeks, it has been officially revealed beyond doubt, first from the Red Cross, and then from the Bush Torture Memos, that we tortured.

GM, Rick Wagoner, and the bailout

March 29th, 2009

There is a bit of discussion about the fact that the White House has asked Rick Wagoner to step down as General Motors CEO.

The irrelevance of the far right

March 5th, 2009

There is a growing irrelevance that the far right is experiencing in this country, and many believe that it is entering what will be an extended loss of influence due to a failure to recognize that people in the United States have moved away from its mannerisms. Interestingly, this is an area in which the church is proceeding at the same pace as, or actually faster than, the rest of culture: as the lords of the political Right flail for the remnants of their influence, the lords of the Religious Right do so as well.

President Barack Obama

January 20th, 2009

Welcome to President Barack Hussein Obama. I've never watched much of an inauguration before. Before the primaries of 2008, I had never voted before.

On marriage and the State

December 14th, 2008

In the last month or so, much has been made about marriage and its relationship to the State.

Decomposition of Christian power

December 7th, 2008

To finish my series, I want to put the things I've looked at together a bit more. I've tried to show how the problems in how historical problems in how the church has looked at politics, culture, and pneumatology have led, in some ways, to current trends in American evangelicalism.

Congratulations to Barack Obama

November 5th, 2008

Major congratulations to Barack Obama, to the United States, and to the world. We have seen an historic moment and a significant one. I feel like there is an incredible potential for good change.

Decomposition of Christian politics

October 25th, 2008

Continuing my series concerning the death and decomposition of movements in the church, I want to look at the ebbs and flows of Christian engagement in politics.
