Entrepreneurs, Faith And Business: It’s Not Always What You Think
There are those who decry the infusion of faith in business; after all, why should the bakers down the street be able to turn down the account for the gay wedding? But many entrepreneurs – in many industries and with many different beliefs – intertwine their beliefs and their business … and it’s not always what you think. Christ Horst at Values & Capitalism says faith (of many different types) plays a role in business in our country. Whether you...
The Smile Curve and the Future of the Middle Class
The smile curveis an idea came from puter industry, but it applies broadly. It’s a recognition, in graph form, that there is good money to be made (or more value to be added) in research and development, and, at the other end, in marketing and retailing. It’s also a recognition that there is almost no profit to be made, except in high volumes, in the middle areas of manufacturing (assembly or shipping). This has hurt the American middle class because...
Lebanon’s Grand Mufti on Islamic Reformation, Clash of Civilizations
Abdel-Latif DerianJoe Carter put up a very good clarifying post on Wednesday about Western politicians and religious leaders envisioning a moderate Islam that might follow the template of the Protestant Reformation. In “Let’s Stop Asking Islam to Be Christian,” Carter wrote that what Western elites really want is for Muslims “to be like liberal mainline Christianity: all the trappings of the faith without all that pesky doctrine that might stir up trouble.” Indeed, Christians and Muslims hold radically different notions...
Women’s History Month: Mary Wollstonecraft And ‘I Have A Dream’
Most of us associate the words “I have a dream” with the iconic speech of Martin Luther King, Jr. But there was a woman, nearly 200 years earlier, who wrote of her own impassioned dreams of liberty. Mary Wollstonecraft was born in 1759 in England and championed social and educational equality for women. The daughter of a farmer, Wollstonecraft came to debate the likes of Edmund Burke regarding natural law, revolution and individual liberty. What is intriguing about Wollstonecraft is...
Why An Urban Church Abandoned Traditional Charity
In the early 2000s, Broadway United Methodist Church had a series of outreach programs, including a food pantry, after-school program, clothing ministry, and a summer youth program that served up to 250 children per day.Today, these programs pletely absent, and it’s no accident. “They’ve been killed off,” writes Robert King in a fascinating profile of the transformation for Faith and Leadership.“In many cases, they were buried with honors. But those ministries, staples of the urban church, are all gone from...
Bishop Says ‘Climate Denial’ Like Moral Blindness
Katharine Jefferts Schori Your author recalls a time when reasonable people could disagree on all types of issues. Unfortunately, that period’s ing nature of diverse opinions has receded into vitriolic attacks on opponents’ intelligence, funding, research ethics, morality and religious faith. Such is the case with this week’s media coverage of Katharine Jefferts Schori, the woman the Guardian labels a “presiding bishop of the Episcopal church and one of the most powerful women in Christianity.” The bishop explained her highly...
Correcting Misimpressions About Religious Freedom
There is something about religious freedom that causes some folks, including many journalists, to lose all sense of reason and objectivity. Last year Mollie Hemingway wrote a blistering critique of reporting on the issue in which she said, “we have a press that loathes and works actively to suppress this religious liberty, as confident in being on the ‘right side of history’ as they are ignorant of natural rights, history, religion and basic civility.” The recent religious freedom legislation in...
Local Government Can Be Big Government Too
Small-government conservatives often share a regrettable trait with their big-government liberal opponents: they frame the issue almost exclusively in terms of the size and scope of the federal government. Although conservatives sometimes expand their view and include state governments, the focus tends to miss the local governments, city and county municipalities, that can have a considerable impact on an individual’s life. But in Texas they’re beginning to take notice—and are doing something about it: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican,...
