  • Long Journey Of
    Photography by Brent Mykytyshyn The long journey of by Marcello Di Cintio Decades after he fled his childhood home and church, the son of America’s most controversial preacher has found a life—if not all the answers—in Calgary. God hates fags. According to the Westboro Baptist Church in To- peka, Kansas, God also hates America, Canada, and Islam. God hates Barack Obama—who, as it turns out, is the Antichrist. He hates Paul McCartney and Justin Timberlake (“The fags love him, and he them. His filth justifies their filth,” says the WBC). But God hates fags most of all. God also hates Nathan Phelps. At least that is what Nate thought on his 18th birthday in 1976, back when he still believed that God exists. At the stroke of midnight—the precise moment he legally became an adult and couldn’t be dragged back—Nate stepped out the door of his family’s Topeka compound and left the Westboro Baptist Church behind. Nate loaded a few belongings into the old Rambler he’d bought secretly for $350 and drove away. “I left there believ- ing with the same certainty that the sun is going to rise in the east that around the year 2000 Christ would come and I was going to hell,” Nate said. “I knew I would suffer for an eternity.” Nate had already suffered. For the first 18 years of his life, Nate cowered under the tyranny of his father, Fred Phelps, the extremist Calvinist preacher and disbarred lawyer who founded Westboro Baptist Church in 1955.

  • Living Prayerfully
    a year of Living Prayerfully How a Curious Traveler Met the Pope, Walked on Coals, Danced with Rabbis, and REVIVED HIS PRAYER LIFE jared brock year_of_living_prayerfully_a.indd 3 11/25/2014 11:40:41 AM Seven Ways to Pray here are a few prayer ideas to get you started. Remember: prayer is about relationship, not routine. It doesn’t have to be boring! 1. Shalom If you watch the news, witness a conflict, or hear of a tough situation, pray for peace. You can also say hello or good-bye or sign your e-mails with this powerful, one-word prayer. 2. Bible verses If you read a verse that sounds like it could be a prayer for a certain situation, tailor it accordingly and pray it out loud. 3. Silence As the Rule of Taizé encourages, “maintain inner silence in all things so as to dwell with Christ.” Practice stillness in order to commune with Jesus. 4. Move Attach physicality to spirituality, whether it’s through breathing, walking, running, eating, bathing, or driving. Get creative! 5. Hold in the light Have you run out of words to pray? Picture someone in the light of God’s grace. Hold them there, and ask God to do what only He can do. 319 year_of_living_prayerfully_a.indd 319 11/25/2014 11:41:20 AM A Year of Living Prayerfully 6. Prevail Write down a list of everyone you know who is far from God who you’d like to be filled with life in Christ. Speak their names out loud every day.

  • Liberalism and Multiculturalism
    Liberalism and Multiculturalism: Heterosexist Injustices within Minorities Luís Carlos Rodrigues PhD University of York School of Politics, Economics and Philosophy January 2014 Abstract My key question is whether granting rights to minority cultural groups can undermine the interests of lesbian, gay and bisexual individuals (LGBs) within those groups. Put differently, this thesis is an investigation about whether the interests of LGBs within minorities are damaged by granting rights to minority cultural groups. I argue that LGBs have the following interests; in family life, sexual freedom, basic civil and political rights, participation in cultural and political life, bodily and psychological integrity, employment equality and equal access to welfare. In order to answer to this question, I engage with the contemporary political philosophy of multiculturalism and I approach the research by critically analysing five different accounts, which can be categorised as: multicultural citizenship, liberal feminism, negative universalism, deliberation and dialogue, and joint governance. My contribution to the debate is by making a variety of critical and positive claims. I make critical claims about the approaches taken by some authors by affirming that they may not fully protect LGBs within minorities from heterosexism. I make positive claims by suggesting innovative policy alternatives for tackling heterosexism within minorities. Three of the positive claims stand out. First, in order to tackle heterosexism it is important to eliminate stereotypes about LGBs. Second, it is possible to have a set of criteria in favour of group rights that does not imply the reinforcement and/or the facilitation of heterosexism within minorities. Third, the oppression of LGBs within minorities is not the logical extension of engaging in multicultural policies.

It’s liberating to recognize that supernatural beings are human creations … that there’s no such thing as “spirit” … that people are undesigned, unintended, and responsible for themselves. But what’s next? Atheism and agnosticism are silent on larger questions of values and meaning. If Meaning in life is not ordained from on high, what small-m meanings can we work out among ourselves? If eternal life is an illusion, how can we make the most of our only lives? As social beings sharing a godless world, how should we coexist? For the questions that remain unanswered after we’ve cleared our minds of gods and souls and spirits, many atheists, agnostics, skeptics, and freethinkers turn to secular humanism. Secular. “Pertaining to the world or things not spiritual or sacred.” Humanism. “Any system of thought or action concerned with the interests or ideals of people … the intellectual and cultural movement … characterized by an emphasis on human interests rather than … religion.” — Webster’s Dictionary Secular humanism is a comprehensive, nonreligious life stance incorporating: A naturalistic philosophy A cosmic outlook rooted in science, and A consequentialist ethical system in which acts are judged not by their conformance to preselected norms but by their consequences for men and women in the world.
