I am looking for suggestions on what we can do about extremists within our own society. They cannot be ignored.

As we consider the causes of depression, those of us in the church must face the ways we might be responsible for creating it.

Conservatives are people who worship at the graves of dead radicals. Stop to think about that. The people who started this country, George Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton, these were not conservatives; these were the radicals of the time. In fact, conservatives always look back on people who they despised and make them into heroes. If you were to listen to the religious right today, they would make you believe that Martin Luther King was one of their flock. In reality, they hated him and did everything they could to destroy him.
