The Resurrection Story was Good for the World, Which Begs a Question
Have Christ and Christianity exerted a positive influence on the development of civilization? Eric Chabot summarizes the evidence that it has, touching on everything from slavery to economics to Medieval church music, and concludes his essay by pointing to an atheist scholar who agrees. What’s the upshot if Chabot is right? Something can be useful and still false, so it wouldn’t prove Christianity true. But recognizing that the Judeo-Christian tradition has benefited civilization, and to a degree unrivaled by any...
The Confusing State Of Religious Liberty In America

Peter Lawler is confused as well, and he shares his confusion at The Federalist. Of course, everyone agrees that church and state should be separate, says Lawler,...

Poverty Is Expensive

The poor find it hard to pay for housing which leads to having a harder time saving money even by cooking. The poor have a hard time using a bank or even cashing a check without high fees.

Casualty Call: A Marine’s Reflections on Good Friday
This month marks ten years since I left the Marine Corps. Although I love being a Marine I can honestly say that I don’t miss active duty. In fifteen years of service I sat on the sidelines during three separate wars, and like most Marines, being away from the action drove me insane. Although I had it easy, for some of rades, being on the supporting end back in the U.S. was almost as stressful and emotionally draining as being...

The people of Hong Kong have long enjoyed economic freedom, often ranking at the top of the Heritage Foundation’sIndex of Economic Freedom. Since moving from British to Chinese rule in 1997, Hong Kong has maintained much...
The Cross of Christ and Moving Beyond Ourselves
Holy Week gives us an excellent opportunity to simply take time to look beyond ourselves. When I was little kid, lying in bed at night, I would sometimes e terrified and overwhelmed with the idea of death. I was so petrified of the notion that after death I would be snuffed out of existence for eternity. I’d turn on all the lights and desperately try to distract myself from my deepest thoughts. It didn’t help much that the first dream...
