		<description><![CDATA[Like most of you I look out at the political landscape in America and see only “the One” and then the circus of opposition hopefuls, feeding on each other. How did it come to this? The Republican party of my parents – Ike, Rocky, Stassen, even Taft – descended to outrageous irrationality, lies, and sheer [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanksgiving Day has always been my favorite holiday, with its simple focus on a gathering of family, friends, and sometimes strangers for a feast to celebrate God’s abundance. Like the good deed that goes not unpunished it is now engulfed in violent gridiron sports, an obscene scramble for merchandise gnawing at its shrinking stage. As [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week we went over to Cherokee for the 16th Annual Trail of Tears Association Conference at the Cherokee Casino-Hotel. Cherokee is now effectively two towns – the traditional tribal offices, museum, fairgrounds, and craft shops; and the casino-dominated buildings and motels to the east. What echoes in my memory is the cacophony of contradictions [...]]]></description>

Entitled “Re-visioning Justice,” it will be held at Lake Junaluska Conference and Retreat Center here in western North Carolina. Professor Howard Zehr, of Eastern Mennonite University, will be speaking [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’m afraid this poem needs some explanation. In the inspiring uprisings against autocrats, kings, and despots in the Arab world we have seen the renewal of the modern revolutionary effort to replace monarchical rule with popular constitutional government. (See my earlier ethics blog “The Father and the People” of February 7.) Traditional kingship, we often [...]]]></description>

This began with the production of Blessed Be the Bond at the instigation of my friend Richard Hunt (see my earlier blog on this). To this list I am now adding two books on worship.

		<description><![CDATA[It is July 4 – the American summer festival of extravagant patriotism, razzle-dazzle festivities, hot dogs, hamburgers, and (for many) beer. It is also a moment when the punditry and intelligentsia ponder this republic’s founding principles. Since most Americans can’t distinguish the Declaration of Independence (July 4, 1776) from the Constitution (drafted September 17, 1787, [...]]]></description>

First published in 1985, this is its third edition, thanks to the encouragement, labor, and support of Prof. Richard Hunt, a long-time teacher and researcher in this area. This little book seeks to bring together in [...]]]></description>

We walked among the giant live oaks that line the streets, admired the tulips, dusty miller, and pansies in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Out of nowhere, it seems, “the People” in Egypt have risen up against their long-time dictator, successor to a lineage of autocrats stretching back to the ancient pharoaohs. Appeal to “the people” to legitimate political power has a long history, beginning at least with the demos of ancient Greece and the populus of Rome. But [...]]]></description>
