Both of these statements haven't been received well, for reasons that are relatively obvious. They should scare the bejabbers out of anyone who wants America not to emulate the dynamics of Afghan culture. And yet there's truth in both of them. Not the truth Mr.

Santorum thinks is in them, but truth nonetheless.

Let's look at college education. For Candidate Santorum, the issue with going to college is that The more you engage with the great thoughts of humankind, the more you study physics and biology, heck, the more you study religion and how it came to be, well, the less likely you are to share Santorum's belief system. It doesn't mean you can't be deeply faithful, mind you.

But it does diminish the odds of you being radically, rigidly ultraconservative. He's totally wrong about the value of education. And yet, hidden under all the crazy, he's right. He may not know it, but he's right. As I've suggested before , that college is increasingly the only goal of our secondary education system is a problem.

A variety of reasons. College just isn't for everyone. Not everyone's vocation requires the engagement with the sorts of things you get as part of a liberal arts degree. I've known some bright, successful, capable human beings who didn't go to college, and chose instead to focus on developing their skills in their chosen field.

Like, say, a guy I know who is a highly competent mechanic. He was as driven and as called to that field as any teacher or lawyer. A four year degree for him just would not have made a lick of sense.

If it was something you could do without incurring a huge debt? Then, sure. Give it a go. But that is not where we are. It would be pointless, if you are a young adult with a clear sense of what you want to do in life, to start your adult life tens of thousands of dollars in debt for an education that didn't prepare you for that life. And the idea that such a human being has less value? And though I'd like to say it isn't, assuming that an absence of higher education means less valuable is a real feature of our society.

And as for religion in the public sphere? Well, Candidate Santorum shows here that he has no clue, none, why the separation of faith and state is so vital.

If the integrity of our republic is to stand, no one belief system can ever be permitted to use the power of the state to enforce its doctrines or teachings. That would, rather obviously, impinge on the Constitutional liberties of all those who do not share that particular tradition. It would also betray the essence of Christian faith. Santorum does not get this. Nor, frankly, does he understand that when you step into the public sphere as a person of faith, you need to be able to articulate your faith in ways that resonate with those who do not share it. Neuhaus was Catholic, and conservative, but he understood the necessity of recognizing the dynamics of faith in a democratic culture.

But Rick may not have read that one, because, you know, it says the word "Naked. People of faith who are not hypocrites bring their faith into every action they undertake.

If we are citizens of a democratic republic and Christian, then the teachings of Jesus will inform our actions as citizens. It will govern how we vote, how we speak, and our positions on social issues. In so far as that is true, we are full participants in the public square. We may also publicly declare that foundation, should we so choose.

But if our intent is to persuade others who do not share our faith of the validity of our position, then we must do so in ways that step outside of the language of our faith. This is something that fundamentalists and ideologues do rather badly. Labels: college , education , faith , liberal , politics , public square , rick santorum , separation of church and state.

Monday, February 27, Thieves, Dust, and Ashes. But this weekend, as I ran a quick errand, someone broke into my van. The bag they took contained not only the laptop I'd been using to write, but also And the almost-finished last paper for my D. And my sermon. The sermon was rewritten. The hardware can be replaced. But six months and 25, words vanish. What strikes me, in reflecting on it, is how utterly they're gone. I remember what I wrote, more or less. Yet those words as they were can now be shared with no-one. The images, the reflections, the concepts?

They simply no longer exist. That book will not come to be, not even on Kindle and Nook.

It has flown forgotten as a dream, as the old hymn goes. Like tears in rain , as the Apostle Roy Batty put it. And so, like Sisyphus on a day the gods were in a hurry, I stand only halfway up the mountain, the ashes of my labors crumbling chaos-blasted in my hands. Shouldn't I be gnashing my teeth, storming around, weeping and rending my clothing? I'd spent the whole first week of Lent reflecting on the need to be prepared for the reality of our mortal existence, and so it just My dear little church was most supportive, and I appreciated that.

If our faith provides anything, though, it is the understanding that while as mortal beings we cannot control what happens beyond the span of our own flesh, we can choose how we respond to what we face. I'll just begin again, once I've re-written that paper.

And it was fun to write the first time, so I'll just find joy the process of writing it again. Labels: chaos , faith , fate , mortality. Poolesville Presbyterian Church Creation Story.

Why the Little Church turned Red. A Fable for Children of All Ages. In the morning of the dawn of all things, rain fell on the green Western mountains. It danced down and snaked to the east, seeking the sea. At one place, it turned for a moment, confused, then turned again and moved towards the smell of far off sea. In that one place, that crook in the river, ages passed, and trees rose and fell and rose again. The footprints of men and deer speckled the ground in the wooded places, but the woods were silent except for the cry of the hawks, the nattering of the squirrels, and the soft talk of men on the hunt.

Then other folk came, louder folk, and the trees fell, and the loud folk cast seeds upon the ground. Up sprouted wheat and tobacco and corn. One of those seeds was different, and that seed grew into a church. And so it sat there thinking, small and peaceful-like, in that place in the crook of the river. It sang a thoughtful little Jesus song, and got to laughing to itself now and again at the stuff it thought up.

Soon after the little church had sprung from the earth, the Great Harvester rose and walked the land.

It was the season of the harvest of men, and men rose like wheat from the earth, row upon row by the tens of thousands.
