“It’s Time To Go On The Offensive”– Solas
“We’ve believed that Christianity is declining. It isn’t. We’ve assumed Christianity can’t stand up in the university. It can. Too many of us think Christianity is threatened by diversity. It never has been. And too few of us think Christian sexual ethics are sustainable in the modern world. They are.

But how was that software created?”
“‘The Situation is Very Vulnerable’: Iran-Backed militias Ethnically Cleansing Northern Iraq”– The Telegraph
“Those who can are getting out. Those who stay are preparing themselves for more violence. ‘Things are bad more than any other time,’ Fr Behnam Benoka tells me at his church in Bartella, a ghost town protected, if that’s the right word, by soldiers with Kalashnikovs. ‘It’s harder even than before Isil.'”
