I am new to social media and recently "liked" Anne Lamott, the Christian author. She posted something recently that included what she described as an old joke. I'd never heard it before, but it is quite apropos of the new direction of this blog. The joke asks, "what is the difference between us and God? I encourage us all to remember that. Whenever we fee...

Christianity and the Law Blog. This is a blog exploring the intersection of Christianity and the American legal system. Wednesday, November 23, 2011. I am a fan of local community newspapers for a variety of reasons. I have a lot of respect for people who work hard to serve their communities in any capacity. Journalists for small local newspapers certainly aren’t in it for the big bucks. You can access that editorial below. Http:/ westvalleyview.com/main.asp?

I like to listen to the radio when I work in the kitchen. Yesterday I had the radio on while I prepared dinner. I heard an interview with author Leah Hager Cohen, who discussed her book. I Don't Know: In Praise of Admitting Ignorance (Except When You Shouldn't). Do I think I know and understand that absolute truth?

Nonetheless, I have never known all that much about one of the most famous and beloved Catholics of the twentieth century: Mother Teresa. But until recently I had never read anything by or about her.

Christianity and the Law Blog. This is a blog exploring the intersection of Christianity and the American legal system. Friday, December 6, 2013. Professor Bart D.
