Why Can’t Christians Play Nice? I was recently in a conversation with an acquaintance who had the audacity to claim that he is a Christian Anarchist—an impossible merger of worldviews in my opinion. (I still don’t understand how one can reconcile the constant employment of kingship metaphors throughout both testaments with the concepts of anarchy? ... But I digress.) In retrospect, this is greatly disconcerting—and indicative of conversations many Christians have every day in the workplace, in the church or on comment boards. "I Know I am Right!" I am still convinced my acquaintance was very wrong in his convictions. In his book Uncommon Decency, Richard Mouw suggests that the real challenge is to come up with a convicted civility. Or does He? The Posture of Convicted Civility Jesus’ convicted civility is most clearly on display in His radical inclusiveness and exclusiveness. Mouw suggests a basic rule of thumb for the posture of civility: “Concentrate on your own sinfulness and on the other person’s humanness.”

11 Things to Know at 25(ish) When you’re 25-ish, you’re old enough to know what kind of music you love, regardless of what your last boyfriend or roommate always used to play. You know how to walk in heels, how to tie a necktie, how to give a good toast at a wedding and how to make something for dinner. You don’t have to think much about skin care, home ownership or your retirement plan. Your life can look a lot of different ways when you’re 25: single, dating, engaged, married. You are working in dream jobs, pay-the-bills jobs and downright horrible jobs. Now is the time to figure out what kind of work you love to do. When I was 25, I was in my third job in as many years—all in the same area at a church, but the responsibilities were different each time. Part of being a healthy, mature adult is learning to live within your means all the time, even if that means going without things you think you need, or doing work you don’t love for a while to be responsible financially.

J.A's Deal With Devil (I. Shamir) In Part One of my report last weekend here on the CounterPunch site I showed that the US was secretly funnelling money into Belarus to fund the unelected opposition. Previously, the claim had been routinely denied. Now we have sterling proof. It is engraved in a confidential cable from a US Embassy to the State Department. That is, if you found the cable and were able to understand it. And you happened to understand the political background of the cable. The cables are raw data. The main job of a newspaper or news website is to process raw data and transmit it to a reader. That is why Julian Assange chose to partner with a few important Western liberal newspapers of the mainstream media. For instance, if they plan to attack Afghanistan, the hardline Fox News would simply demand a high-profile strike against the sand rats, while the liberal Guardian would publish a Polly Toynbee piece bewailing the bitter fate of Afghani women. This will be done in two ways. The Israeli Angle
