Two Futures: Nukes or No?
A couple years ago, I ran across Tyler Wigg-Stevenson in an article he wrote, "A Merciful White Flash." Tyler recounted the amazing story of his post-grad years, living under the shadow of the Golden Gate Bridge (hilariously, living under his desk) and working for an advocacy group committed to the elimination of nuclear weapons. Tyler was not religious by any means, far from it. But the evil he encountered - and the dire prospects for a world binging on nuclear weaponry - led Tyler to faith....

From Death to Life
You've got to give yourself to something in order to truly experience it. You can't truly know the deep ocean waters unless you dive in - not even the BBC's Planet Earth (good as it is) allows you to taste the salty sea or get that short panicky sensation when a high wave envelops you in crashing, rushing, drowning water.
For weeks, we've remembered death, via lent. And we haven't watched it from afar; we've submerged ourselves in it. We've tasted our sadness and sat with our sorrows. We've...

Here's a teaser:
The older I get the less certain I become and the more bewildered I am by the unshakable convictions of both strident believers and atheists.
However, I am certain that I have little time for those who hold believers in contempt. And I have begun to suspect...
