Happy First Day

This morning a new semester gets underway. For some of you, it will be at a new school as a first-year or transfer student. Some of you might be returning after some time off or starting a graduate degree. Some are returning to see old friends and make new friends. I am sure all of […]

Equality

Yesterday was an important and historic day for equality in marriage rights for thousands of North Carolinians, and for many families who have been unable to enjoy the same legal recognition and protection of other families.  With the Supreme Court’s refusal to take up the issue of the circuit courts decision, the way in paved […]

However, in the drafting of my long discussion of metaphysics, ethics and moral […]

Advent […]
