As the saying goes, when your neighbor loses his job, it’s a recession, but when you lose yours, it’s a depression. When Debbie Wasserman-Schultz got a new job as chair of the Democratic National Committee, it became an 'economic turnaround.' And when the RNC saw how Wasserman-Schultz handled herself in the media, it became boom times indeed for the GOP. Yesterday the Republican Party issued another in its series of ads featuring the ridiculous claims of economic turnaround while unemployment has gone up rather than down the last two months, economic indicators are all declining, and Wall Street has its arms wrapped firmly around its capital waiting for the regulatory storm to abate. Heck, not even David Gregory bought this line

In 1991, Nancy Andreasen began a long-running study of first-episode schizophrenia patients, which involved periodically measuring their brain volumes with magnetic resonance scans. In articles published in 2003 and 2005, she reported finding 'progressive brain volume reductions' in her patients, and that this shrinkage was associated with a worsening of negative symptoms, functional impairment and cognitive decline. But the implication was that this shrinkage was due to the disease, and that the drugs simply failed to stop it.

Andrew Marin’s book, Love Is an Orientation: Elevating the Conversation with the Gay Community (2009), has been gaining some traction in evangelical circles. Having just finished reading the book I am stunned that an evangelical press like InterVarsity would publish such a fatally flawed work—and that persons such as Scot McKnight (a New Testament professor at an evangelical university, North Park) and a certain Michelle Strombeck of Moody Broadcasting Network (a conservative evangelical organization) would provide endorsements for it. (A foreword by Brian McLaren is not surprising since McLaren had already surrendered to a homosexualist view. The same applies to Tony Campolo, whose enthusiastic video endorsement is posted on Marin’s site.)

My Friend Hector Garcia Gets Married
By: CULTURESHOCKTV.COM on 9/27/2010 at 2:06am EST
By Timothy Jack Ward-But I don't for one minute think that my discomfort is God whispering to me about Hector. Rather, when you dig down deep and allow yourself to have Big Thoughts, I think my discomfort might be God whispering to me about having the slightest hint of jealousy, envy, of this example of two people who have obviously done a much better job, the hard work and perseverance, of Hanging In There, for richer and for poorer, than I've even been able to accomplish and enjoy with One Someone. I'm glad Dumbarton United Methodist Church in Georgetown embraced Hector and Craig the way their friends from Dallas have. So I will offer a virtual toast from out in the social media sphere of the Intertube, congratulating Hector and Craig, and in their names hoping that soon none of our college friends will have to travel half-way across the country to make commitments and claim their rights.

WORD ALONE MINISTRIES

There are those of you who have ears to hear the Truth of God’s Word, eyes to see His creation through a Biblical worldview and a conscience truly captive to His Word not the sinful self. You, like a growing number of other Christians-some of them Lutheran-know what it means to be in this world but not of it. More than ever before, you don’t seem to 'fit.' The post-modern understanding that there is no absolute truth outside of the self is not understandable to you. You struggle with yourself wondering if it is just you that thinks things have radically changed and not for the better. You may be among those who don’t recognize the message of your 'church' as anything like what you grew up with. You don’t understand what happened to the basic fabric of society that seemed to be common sense and good order. You don’t have any trust in your leaders in church and society. You wonder why nobody says or does anything to push the proverbial pendulum back at least for the sake of the children who must navigate themselves through all this relativity, plurality and uncertainty. To even note your concern out loud would make you some sort of negative, judgmental, fundamentalist, fanatic fuddy-duddy. You would be labeled a sexist, racist, hate filled, homophobic, name calling 'Pharisee' or worse. You are left wondering why you, the one being called the names, the one being judged, the one being put down are accused of what you are experiencing at the hands of the loving, tolerant, accepting, non-judgmental Christians. The irony of the repeated experience confirms that you are out of sync.

For over a decade, WordAlone has assumed the role of the loyal opposition in relationship to the ELCA. We clearly voiced opposition to prevailing trends, but always with the intention of getting the ELCA back on a faithful track with a future. However, we see in the watershed events surrounding the August 2009 churchwide assembly the ELCA’s irrevocable change of direction. The actions of the Church Council, the rejection of Biblical authority by the delegates, the weak-kneed response by the bishops, and the increasingly strong-arm tactics of the church to repress critique make it clear that it is not a church body whose direction can be changed by a loyal opposition. Therefore, the “loyal” in the equation is now over. While our 'loyalty' has always been to our one Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, our attempts to oppose gently and charitably have expired.

A 2008 survey of 591 psychologists in private practice found that they rely more on their own and colleagues' experience than on science when deciding how to treat a patient.

'Secular': Describing America's promise as a 'secular country that is respectful of religious freedom,' as Obama did last April, is an act of willful historical revisionism. The United States was founded as an intensely religious country that believes our rights come from God, including the right to worship as our conscience dictates. The Founding Fathers forbade the establishment of a national religion to protect individual rights of conscience but understood that public life would reflect the religious nature of the American people. This understanding of America's promise is far more tolerant of religion in the public square than the secular purge that we have seen since the Supreme Court outlawed school prayer in 1963.

The psychology of the election and inauguration of Barack Obama

By: CULTURESHOCKTV.COM on 1/21/2010 at 11:05am EST
PSYCHOLOGY TODAY

First, Obama is able to hold apparently conflicting positions, opposites, also called dualities, without becoming polarized. What are polarities? Think republican vs. democrat, white vs. black, rich vs. poor, corporate interest vs. labor. Now, look at his cabinet appointees. How is it that many conservatives are so pleased? Is that simply political expediency? Look at his dinner with John McCain the night before his inaugural. Is this just the politics of a very smart man? If so, why did he meet with him after the election on two other occasions? Listen to his speeches. Go back and listen to his reaction to breaking news of the financial crisis, in November. John McCain suspended his campaign. Very reactive. Obama, remained calm and reasoned. That seems to be when the polls opened up. Americans instinctively recognized the steady hand of Obama.

After the botched Christmas Day attack on Northwest 253, fingers began pointing at American intel organizations over the lack of dot-connecting that allowed Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab to board the plane, even apart from the failure to detect his suicide underwear. The blame has largely settled on the CIA and the NCTC for mishandling the information that should have led the US to cancel Abdulmutallab’s visa.

Why let a holiday season come between the White House and making some political statements? The White House pegged controversial designer Simon Doonan to oversee the Christmas decorations for the White House. Mr. Doonan, who is creative director of Barney’s New York has often caused a stir with his design choices. Like his naughty yuletide window display of Margaret Thatcher as a dowdy dominatrix and Dan Quayle as a ventriloquist’s dummy. For this year’s White House, he didn’t disappoint.

Just like the original 2,032-page, government-run health care plan from Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) and the last version of Senator Reid’s 2,074-page bill, this latest 383-page amendment levies an abortion premium and does not fix the problem of government funds being used to subsidize elective abortions.

No inspector general can unearth corruption without access to his office, computer or staff. An 'administrative leave' putting an IG in that position has the same effect, for all intents and purposes, as an immediate firing. That's the basic logic behind former Inspector General Gerald Walpin's lawsuit demanding at least temporary reinstatement to his job as watchdog at the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS). New revelations about the case from two lawmakers indicate that there is good reason to suspect duplicity from those who helped force Mr. Walpin's overnight removal in June.

Stories Behind the Music: 'O Holy Night'

ERA OF EXCELLENCE

Christmas Eve 1906, Reginald Fessenden, a 33-year-old university professor and former chief chemist for Thomas Edison, did something long thought impossible. Using a new type of generator, Fessenden spoke into a microphone and, for the first time in history, a man's voice was broadcast over the airwaves: 'And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed' ...

Fessenden was probably unaware of the sensation he was causing on ships and in offices; he couldn't have known that men and women were rushing to their wireless units to catch this Christmas Eve miracle. After finishing his recitation of the birth of Christ, Fessenden picked up his violin and played 'O Holy Night,' the first song ever sent through the air via radio waves. When the carol ended, Fessenden read another selection from the book of Luke: 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men of good will.' The Christmas program was picked up as far south as Norfolk...

Six months ago, Charlie Crist looked like he could do no wrong. He had built a remarkable job-approval rating as Florida’s governor and looked like a shoo-in to hold the state in the red column. Then Crist decided to run for the Senate instead, hoping to replace the retiring Mel Martinez (R), and got an endorsement from the NRSC within hours even though conservative Marco Rubio had already filed to run for the nomination. Six months later, Crist suddenly looks vulnerable, and as Politico reports, he only has himself to blame

Last week was a milestone in modern American political history. The election results (New Jersey and Virginia gubernatorial races) and the battle over healthcare show that the nation’s interest in social issues has not waned. New coalitions are forming around the pivotal legislative concerns of our day. From my vantage point, I am noticing a passion among individual citizens to engage in the political process – whether the topic is the economy, healthcare, or gay marriage. The average citizen not only wants to express their opinion, but also has become savvy in engaging the powers that be. The insight of these new activists is shown in their ability to organize and get results. Over 20,000 people came to DC last week to voice their concerns about healthcare.

Twenty years ago today, the most reviled symbol of Communist oppression got torn down by both the people it oppressed and the people it was intended to intimidate as the era of Soviet domination in Eastern Europe came to an abrupt and obvious end. Cheering throngs filled the streets as the Berlin Wall fell, with East Germany’s soldiers reduced to the role of spectators as their state, for all intents and purposes, ceased to exist entirely. It was easily the climax of decades of Cold War — and a moment of undeniable victory for the US and Western Europe

Well … yes, that’s true, if you think anything short of Hasan sitting up in his hospital bed and declaring 'why, indeed, religion was a factor at Fort Hood' amounts to irresponsible speculation. But here’s what we’ve got so far, according to eyewitnesses, colleagues, and friends. He considered the war on terror a 'war on Islam' and himself a Muslim first and an American second; he thought Muslims had the right to stand up to the 'aggressor' in the Middle East and is suspected of posting things online about the selfless heroism of jihadist suicide bombers; he was placed on probation for proselytizing about Islam to patients and colleagues and was sufficiently devout that he refused to have his picture taken with women; he once used a lecture at a medical conference as an opportunity to discuss how the Koran orders decapitation for infidels; and, oh yes, he yelled 'Allahu Akbar' before opening fire.

If ubiquity were the measure of a presidency, Barack Obama would already be grinning at us from Mount Rushmore. But of course it is not. Despite his many words and television appearances, our elegant and eloquent president remains more an emblem of change than an agent of it. He's a man with an endless, worthy to-do list—health care, climate change, bank reform, global capital regulation, AfPak, the Middle East, you name it—but, as yet, no boxes checked 'done.' This is a problem that style will not fix. Unless Obama learns to rely less on charm, rhetoric, and good intentions and more on picking his spots and winning in political combat, he's not going to be reelected, let alone enshrined in South Dakota.

It is critical that the church in America understands the times and what needs to be done now. The natural things speak of the invisible. Natural happenings on the earth are revealing something that is going on in the spiritual realm. There is a great spiritual conflict with a rising tide of Islamic boldness being manifested. Several happenings are converging this week. First of all, our President has recently proclaimed, honored, encouraged the Muslim holy days of prayer and fasting called Ramadan. He was very silent on the National Day of Prayer but very vocal on the support of Ramadan. Interestingly at the same time a major Christian leader of the Emergent Church called for forty days of fasting and prayer in the same Ramadan period with the goal that the church will better understand our Muslim friends. We are all for understanding but we must have spiritual discernment as to the spiritual dark powers that are being invoked into our nation.
