Dancing... or drinking through life
I am not even sure that I know how to do a link anymore. I'm giving it a shot though so, three readers, please forgive me if I mess this up.
So Rod Dreher's sister is battling cancer. It is nasty. Their faith is extraordinary. Here's his latest post (I think)
There are 8 comments on it.

Back...
I'm back here at JWalking after a bit of time because I just want someplace to record thoughts from time to time. I doubt that many of the thoughts will be political - there are plenty upon plenty of people offering their opinions on everything political and I doubt that I have much to add that will

Learning to tell a story
For the last ten months or so I've been engaged in a completely different world - the world of screenwriting. It began as a writing project - probably the 21st Century version of a yen to write the great American novel - a shot at a screenplay. I knew that I knew nothing about the art but was inspir

And just one more
I have, I think, just one more round of chemo left.
When I go through my pill popping regimen tomorrow morning it will be the last time for this particular round of drugs. Twenty-three rounds, it seems, is enough.
What comes next? We'll go back to what we did after the surgery. We'll watch and measu

That looks like an interesting debate. It’s a little hard to tell if and where you were the speaker.
The definition of “evangelical” was interesting.

Come on David,
Are you going to let the “evangelical elite” label go unchallenged? Progressives and Liberals literally think they are better than others because they can contemplate abomination in the past tense.
The elitist tone of the article testifies to Left’s superiority ego. In fact, “aristocratic” better suits a Leftist. Pomopus privileged Aristocrat. From Hollywood to Boston, The Left truly believes they know every answer to every question. Though, elitist may no longer fit the bill for Leftists. They proclaim holier than that status. See how the six days of creation is so smugly handled. And of course the gay plug . . . Always the gay thing has to be mentioned by Lefties. Hey educated ones, Evolution doesn’t give homosexuals any support. So why should Christians that went to college?
“Evangelical Elites?”
Typical Leftist political spin. Typical.

Donny, presumably you leave comments here in order to challenge what you see as the lack of conservatism. What’s wrong with David challenging Rosin on her site? Incidentally, David’s answer (up today) starts right about where you’d like him to.

I could be a little absent-minded, but I’m pretty sure the Constitution says something about keeping church and state separate. After all, isn’t that the reason our Founding Fathers made it the 1st on the list?
As a non-Christian, I find it to be a horrifying nightmare to see leaders of this country fighting over who is the better Christian. I’d like someone to name one country, in the history of the world, which actually worked well as a theocracy. The Founding Fathers came here to be rid of religious persecution and yet here we are.
And if I’m not mistaken, Jesus never once tried to force someone to follow him. He even respected the Samaritan woman at the well, kicked the money lenders out of the temple, and, if I remember correctly, someone said that God is not found in a building.
This non-Christian has a high moral and ethical code. I am a person of faith. Just because I am not of yourfaith, doesn’t make me less-than. And so far, I have yet to see one of these so-called Christian leaders follow the path that Jesus himself set down.
Respecfully.
