Em que acreditam os muçulmanos? Um curso intensivo sobre o Islã

As principais lições que tirei da Conferência “Mulheres na Apologética”

Personagem do Genderbread – Parte 3: Sexo biológico
Nothing summarizes our discussion more today than the famous scene from Kindergarten Cop where a little boy respectfully raises his hand to speak and waits to be called upon. His words of wisdom for the class that he so ardently and patiently waited to share? “Boys...
Personagem do Genderbread – Parte 2: Expressão de gênero (E talvez como chegamos até aqui?)
In our previous blog, we introduced you to the Genderbread curriculum, a teaching guide that tells kids as young as kindergarten how to think of sex and gender as a really confusing, multi-variable continuum which are mostly unrelated to one another. While I want to...
Como o livro *Outgrowing God*, de Dawkins, tira proveito da incapacidade de nossa cultura de pensar criticamente

Ensinar nossos filhos a identificar afirmações vazias
O John e eu fomos à Feira Estadual de Iowa neste fim de semana. (Meu marido adora todas as comidas fritas. As calorias na feira não contam, certo?) Entre as paradas que tínhamos programado, queríamos ver uma banda que se anunciava como uma mistura de Stomp com a cappella. Parece legal, né? Nós...
4 coisas boas que se tornam ruins quando são idolatradas
A internet está em polvorosa com o anúncio de Joshua Harris de que ele e sua esposa estão se separando E de que ele não é mais cristão. Caso você tenha perdido toda a febre do livro *I Kissed Dating Goodbye* no final dos anos 1990, deixe-me resumir: Joshua Harris era um proeminente...

Cultura da Pureza, parte 2: As 5 piores lições da Cultura da Pureza
