Interview with Obama
Relevant has an interesting interview with Barak Obama that focuses on issues of particular importance to Christians.


Obama the Christian?

New Logo for Walmart
I am totally underwhelmed by Walmart’s new logo. So is everyone else, I suspect.

An article in Spiegel of all places says “There is an unexpected air of normalcy prevailing in Baghdad these days, with consumption flourishing and confidence in the government growing.”


Where are Europe’s Babies?
Dr. Mohler pens an interesting article looking at the phenomenon of incredibly low European birthrates. He says “There are countless issues connected to these questions, but in the end, this represents a spiritual problem.”
