A Master of Words, Including Some You Can’t Use in a Headline By CHARLES McGRATH http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/24/arts/24appr.html?th&emc=th Published: June 24, 2008 Stand-up comedy in America is not, for the most part, a long-lived profession. Comics burn out, go stale, lose their edge. Some, like Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor, almost literally consume themselves.Are parents TOO preachy?

Christianity's Image Problem
Written by: Davie Van Biema
It used to be, says David Kinnaman, that Christianity was both big and beloved in the U.S. — even among its non-adherents. Back in 1996, a poll taken by Kinnaman's organization, the Barna Group, found that 83% of Americans identified themselves as Christians, and that fewer than 20% of non-Christians held an unfavorable view of Christianity.
Why Islamic Law Is The Antithesis of Equal Justice
If there is one thing that is innate to the functioning of a democratic society, it is that every person is legally equal under the law. It is also why Islamic Law or Sharia, is incompatible with a democratic society, because Islamic law presumes the inequality of everyone who is not a Muslim male as a given.
There can be no middle ground of compromise between Islamic law and civil law, because Sharia is not legal, it is religious.
