7 Ways Not to Be the Religious People Who Turned Out the Jews
No one in religious circles today would fail to find fault with Germany’s religious community, which was complicit in the Nazi machine that liquidated 10 million people, including 6 million European Jews.

Homeschooling That Isn’t so Christian – 6 ways it can be Christian
After a year and a half of being a vendor at homeschool conventions around the country—twelve shows—I am aghast by many things I’ve observed.

Enter Comenius’s Labyrinth
The first five chapters of Comenius’s epic story are a mere 14 pages in this new edition. One could read this section in a mere 20 minutes—even if you were one of the slowest readers in the world. There is nothing fancy about them, yet they are laden with sinister clues, intrigue, and a level…

A Man Beyond Religion
The word “religious” is a term in many circles can make part of our anatomy cinch up so tight; were we sitting on a piece of coal it’d quickly turn into a diamond. Religiousness is as synonymous in practical reality with control, manipulation, and corruption as it is might be with…
