Letter Writing Builds Character
Letter to the Editor: Some say that Karl Marx's statement "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!" sounds similar to Acts 4:34-35. How do you respond to ...
The Demonization Gun
“What I am rejecting is demonization. And to simply go along with what they are currently demanding is to help establish their authority to demonize. I don’t want to accede control of that process to them. I don’t want them to have the demonization gun—I know where they are going to point it next.”
