Taking issue

What the bottom of the page of the magazine tells me is that William T. McClay is the G.T. and Libby Blankenship Chair in the History of Liberty at the University of Oklahoma. That's impressive stuff. I haven't a clue exactly what discipline "the History of Liberty" is cataloged under, but I'm sure, somewhere along the line, Professor McClay, via his acute observations, earned the right to occupy the G. T. and Libby Blankenship Chair in its eminent domain. Seriously.Still, I think one day last month or last year, he just woke up cranky. In the latest issue of The Hedgehog Review, he takes issue,...

Get Ebook The Angel and the Beehive: THE MORMON STRUGGLE WITH ASSIMILATION

"The past few decades have witnessed an increasing reaction of the Mormons against their own successful assimilation, " Armand Mauss writes in The Angel and the Beehive, "as though trying to recover some of the cultural tension and special identity associated with their earlier 'sect-like' history." This retrenchment among Mormons is the main theme of Mauss's book, which analyzes the last forty years of Mormon history from a sociological perspective. At the official ecclesiastical level, Mauss f...Search Result :Category List of Titles - Utah Lighthouse MinistryAbuse. Occultic Ritual Abuse - Fact...

Remembering Frederick Manfred--1912-1994 (vi)

Frederick Manfred remembered me from that second seemingly invisible visit, perhaps because he thought it was good of me to bring that beret-ed old aficionado up to meet him just months before the oxygen tank was retired. From that visit, Fred remembered me. Besides, he knew I taught literature at Dordt College. Frederick Manfred stood 6’9”. In the late 20s, the basketball coach at Calvin saw this huge presence show up on campus and almost immediately recruited him to play ball, even though Feik had not played a quarter of high school ball at Western Academy. Back then, competitive athletics...

Spring wigglin'

Last night, headlights ablazin', our neighbor seeded the field just this side of the river, trying to get it all in before the rain, which came, as prophesied, sometime after midnight. Spring is late this year, after what folks from eastern Colorado to wherever--Ohio? Pennsylvania?--call the longest winter on record.  We didn't have the snow that so much of the Midwest had, but winter, like a bitter old man, just would not find the door.A late spring makes farmers more earnest than ever because they've got to the get the corn in. I went in for a blood test last week, sat in the waiting room...

Sunday Morning Meds--The Meek

“But the meek will inherit the land and enjoy great peace.” Psalm 37Christian piety is, by the standards of traditional orthodoxy, never good enough. “Give all that you have to the poor and follow me,” Jesus told a rich young CEO. The guy, Harvard-trained, turned tail back to the office. Some claim Christ himself was being more than a bit hyperbolic. I think that’s true. The injunction to righteousness can be crippling, in a way, because the heart-felt desire to do good is, in plain fact, never good enough anyway, as Luther himself observed on bloody knees. We’re saved by grace, not...
