Climategate Summary and Update
Climategate Summary and Update
Aug 13, 2026 7:48 PM

If you’re looking to catch up on the Climategate scandal, one of our interviewees from The Effective Stewardship DVD church curriculum, Steven Hayward, has an excellent summary and analysis here at The Weekly Standard.

Also, our friend Jay Richards has a good piece at today’s Enterprise Blog, which explains why attempts to settle the global warming debate by appeals to scientific consensus merely increase public skepticism.

And looking ahead, Paul Mirengoff of Powerline explains why the global warming lobby won’t need Congress in order to heavily regulate our economy’s energy sector. Hint: Oligarchy of Five

Redemptive entrepreneurship: In a globalized economy, who is our neighbor?
In our globalized and interconnected world, we inhabit vast networks of creative exchange with widely dispersed neighbors. This leads to real and munities far and wide—a great and mysterious collaboration. But as we continue to strengthen those social bonds across economic life, how do we stay faithful and attentive to our more munity spheres? It’s a challenge for creators and workers across the economic order—to use our economic freedom to meet human needs, but do so through a healthy and...
The 7 best Super Bowl commercials about vocation and stewardship
Contrary to the trite assertion made every year by people who don’t know how to appreciate football, it is not really true that mercials are the best thing about the Super Bowl (at least not always). Sure, it may seem that way because the television viewer is mercials than actual game play (in an average game, theratio mercials to playing time is seven to one). The reality, though, is that most of mercials aren’t all that memorable. Only a few...
People who are religiously active are happier, more civically engaged
People who are active in religious congregations tend to be happier and more civically engaged than either religiously unaffiliated adults or inactive members of religious groups, according to a new study by Pew Research Center. The findings were taken from survey data from the United States and more than two dozen other Christian-majority nations. Pew finds that in the U.S. and many other countries around the world, regular participation in a munity clearly is linked with higher levels of happiness...
Social science and the evidence for virtue
“Christians have nothing to fear and everything to gain from good social science,” says Paul D. Miller. “It provides a way to talk normatively about human flourishing in terms that are intelligible, legitimate, and persuasive to those outside munity of faith.” How can Christians make arguments that are persuasive to those who do not share their most basic presuppositions? That is the quandary in which Christians—and Jews and Muslims—find themselves as public discourse is increasingly framed, mediated, and policed by...
Climate change: Regulations vs. results
Christians believe we should be good stewards of the earth, and for some the issue has taken on apocalyptic dimensions. Yet faith leaders, including the leaders of multiple worldwide munions, have ignored the most effective method for reducing carbon emissions while praising counterproductive policies. There is no doubt about the extent of concern. A recent Gallup poll found that 70 percentof young Americans worry about climate change, and people aged 18 to 34 are the first generation in which a...
Unemployment as economic-spiritual indicator — January 2019 report
Series Note: Jobs are one of the most important aspects of a morally functioning economy. They help us serve the needs of our neighbors and lead to human flourishing both for the individual and munities. Conversely, not having a job can adversely affect spiritual and psychological well-being of individuals and families. Because unemployment is a spiritual problem, Christians in America need to understand and be aware of the monthly data on employment. Each month highlight thelatest numberswe need to know...
When red tape hits the homeless: San Diego charity closes due to new restrictions
For the past four years, Deliverance San Diego has been delivering hot meals to the city’s homeless population every Friday, averaging 200 donated meals on any given evening. Now, due to new guidelines passed by the State Legislature of California, the non-profit is ceasing operations and will dissolve by the end of the month. Through their existing model, hot meals were prepared in volunteer homes and distributed on the streets. “Volunteers from various churches gather at 17th and Commercial downtown...
Nanny-state nationalism is a threat to parental rights
On a recent episode of this Fox News show,Tucker Carlson called on Congress to ban smartphones for children. Those who assume Carlson is still a conservative might be confused by his abandonment of limited government and his embrace of a nanny-state policy. But this latest call for government to intervene in the lives of Americans is in keeping with Carlson’s drift from conservatism to nationalism—a shift that is ing mon on the right side of the political spectrum. Because it...
9 big questions about democratic socialism
Democratic socialism is hot in the United States right now. Both the American media and young people seem to be enamored of the thought of steeply progressive, redistributive tax rates designed to achieve some vision of justice. As with most public policy ideas, we tend to get pretty far down the road before we ask basic questions related to the project. In other words, we imagine a result that appeals to us before we’ve really considered whether other effects are...
Venezuela’s ‘man-made failure’: A view from the UK and the U.S.
As Venezuela collapses, so do the dreams of countless Western socialists, who hailed the Bolivarian model as “twenty-first century socialism.” A number of prominent think tank leaders, including Acton Institute co-founder Fr. Robert Sirico, mented on the ongoing turbulence inside the increasingly repressive and authoritarian regime of Nicolás Maduro. To this end, they have produced a number of videos and podcasts discussing the uprisings and implosion of what was once one of South America’s most prosperous nations. Each performs a...
