  • Gnostic Myths for $500, Alex

    By now, you've certainly heard about the fourth-century papyrus fragment in which Jesus purportedly refers to "my wife."

Scholars hate it when people draw this kind of connection, but in some sense it's their own fault.

  • Cheating at Harvard: Let's Be Honest About Ourselves

    The disciplinary board at Harvard recently announced that it was investigating allegations of cheating that were described as "unprecedented in anyone's living memory." If the students are found guilty of cheating, they could be suspended for one year and receive other sanctions.

  • Lifeway and 'The Blind Side:' Another Side to the Story

    There are always two (or more) sides to a story. And that's the case with Lifeway bookstores and the "Blind Side." A friend of mine has shown me there's a bigger issue surrounding the story, and in fairness, I think it's important that you hear about it.

  • Squawking Over Chick-fil-A

    Since 2000, the Episcopal Church has lost 23 percent of its members. At this rate, there will be no Episcopalians in 26 years.
