from Conciliar Post
It’s unfortunate to see that so many firmly believe that racism is, for the most part, a bygone part of American history. “Sure”, you might say, “there are still racists. But systemic racism? That went away with Jim Crow.” Those who adopt this belief then chastise people who bring race into the conversation, claiming that they are just “race baiting,” “racemongerers,” or “playing the race card.” But behind this belief is a misunderstanding of sin and an unloving posture toward non-white Americans.

The Trick Lawmakers Use to Hide Their Wasteful Spending
The Congressional Budget Act of 1974 requires the legislative and the executive branches to agree upon a dozen different appropriations bills before the end of the fiscal year, Sept. 30. And year after year, they have failed to meet this deadline. So, Congress often turns to a short-term patch, known as a continuing resolution, to fund the government until reconvening in January. And just as frequently, these continuing resolution bills not only fail to address wasteful spending, but break through existing spending caps, put our government on an unsustainable course, and help repeat the cycle next year.

Looking back on his ordeal, Lossky explains what he learned from it and why he clings to it. On June 13, 1940, Vladimir Lossky left Paris to enlist in the French army. His destination kept retreating from him as he went. Directed to one town after another, and misdirected along the way, it finally became clear that there was no army waiting to receive him. What began as his march to war would end as a “path homewards”.

In a new twist, the presidential nominees from both major political parties have fallen for (or hope that the voters have fallen for) a time-worn fallacy, and have proposed government spending on infrastructure “to grow the economy and create jobs.” As David Stockman has shown, infrastructure in the United States is not “crumbling,” nor is spending on infrastructure disappearing.

YOUNG TRADITIONALISTS IN A PROGRESSIVE CHURCH: SEARCHING AND REMAINING FOR SALVATION
As a young seminarian I entered into a strange mix of ideas. On the one hand I was drawn to that ill-defined and misused notion of theological comprehensiveness or inclusiveness. Anglicanism’s tradition of theological modesty, some say agnosticism, has made it possible for peoples of diverse times, places, and convictions to gather together around the gospel proclaimed in the Scriptures and the Creeds. We all know now that theological modesty and comprehensiveness is a razor’s edge: the very thing that has attracted young people like me can easily divide and alienate.
