Jack French Kemp 1935-2009 May 04, 2009 :: Filed in: Today's Blog
'Kemp' means warrior, and he was the most joyous warrior of our generation. He was generous, happy, ebullient--I never saw a mean note in his heart. He was a great, enthusiastic teacher. He was the one who first showed me the openness and joy in economics--in seizing opportunity, in building a better life for one's family and community. Every time he joined Ronald Reagan on the campaign trail in 1980, you could see the Gipper's face light up. They were magic, those two.

The Dialogue Continues February 20, 2009 :: Filed in: Today's Blog
After reading No One Sees God, a reader sent me the following e-mail that poses a very tough question. I will post my response to his question in the coming days.
In my experience, Christians of all denominations uniformly misconstrue the most important atheist objection, casting it as "Why does God let bad things happen to good people?" Mr. Novak does this as well. It is a weak form of the objection and misses the point. In fact, the really divisive question is about authority and mystery -- the passages in the Bible where God actually orders good people to do bad things. . .
