  • Commentary on the commentary!

    Hello boys, Thanks for the entertaining, verbal ping-pong match on the book The Year of Living Biblically by Mr. A.J. Jacobs. Mr. Jacobs: You have written a hilariously funny book on a profoundly-important topic. As a born-again, spirit-filled, charismatic Catholic whose little brother is a Lubavitch Jew, I have a few opinions of my own ...

  • Re: Give Stewart and Bible credit

    I've seen the phone-book rippers. It merits pointing out that the purpose of that group is to show that being religious/faithful/christian, does not automatically mean being weak. Their goal is to show that very strong people are also christians. It is a continuation of the pop culture message, that you can be a good christian and still rock, ...

  • Sex in Christ

    I'm curious about the reference to the advice site offering a Christian justification for strap-ons and bondage. If Radosh is talking about the site http://sexinchrist.com, he seems to have misread its satirical bent.

  • Re: LDS Texas Children

    i'm not mormon. not even close but i hope everyone who values their freedom to worship will take a look around in their own lives and how their own beliefs have been scrutinized and tested. how far off do you all think we are from facing the same fate. this nation is moving from “a land under God” to one that puts believer’s out on the ...

  • Does Anyone Converse in Everyday American English?

    The article was terse, well-considered set of comments as to why Hillary's comments were just matter of conversation and reasonable. Simply consider the normal American English use of the phrase ''God Bless Them...'' in the context of a conversation that specifically has no religious context. The phrase is most often used to refer to people or ...

  • Take a Lawyer to Church?

    How could such a ridiculous and all-encompassing contract be legally enforcible, when at the point of signing, people don't know what they're agreeing to, and are asked to sign away their rights to pursue recourse ever, in perpetuity, of anything the church does, even if the church itself is in breach of ''ordinary care''. There is no contract in ...

  • Orthodoxy

    The author states that the increase in American Jews who keep kosher from 15 to 21 percent is largely a result of more Reform Jews keeping kosher but provides no evidence to back up this claim. What does exist is evidence that Orthodox Judaism has more than doubled in size in the United States in the last 20 years as a percentage of American ...

  • Michael Sean Winters is correct

    As a former (nonabusing) priest educated at the Pontifical College Josephinum (1953-1963), as a schoolmate for six years with Bernard Cardinal Law of Boston who engineered the shocking US molestation cover-up, and as the analytical gay author of many queer books including ''What They Did to the Kid: Confessions of an Altar Boy,'' I can attest as ...

  • obama's comments

    Obama's comments about people who are losing out in Bush's America are not what many people clain them to be. They ring true, not false. Why is it false to assert, as he did, that when people are down and out they tend to blame those who have even less (the immigrants) or cling to religion or their guns? Obama is a religious person, so his point ...
