I&#8217;ve been having some odd thoughts about de facto succession of leadership and participation in the church. I feel, lately, that I have seen a pattern emerge from time to time: Apparently doctrinally-orthodox [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dan Savage&#8217;s column has always been a sometimes-entertaining example of pandering to one&#8217;s audience and earning revenue through controversy. Now, however, Savage seems to have made the leap from occasionally funny sexual entertainment shockster to ideological Doberman. Sure, his narrow-minded bias is employed for only the best of motivations, but isn&#8217;t that always the case? [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I was getting frustrated with partisan rhetoric about taxes and income. Yes, talking about percentages and rates and proportions and whatnot can often increase clarity with complex data, but sometimes these are also used to conceal or distort some aspect of the information. I decided to make my own graph of 2008 incomes by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Look, I argue about Arizona&#8217;s immigration law, and about people&#8217;s response to illegal immigration in general, but it&#8217;s not because (as the rabid anti-immigrant crowd is wont to insist when anyone doesn&#8217;t toe their particular line) I think illegal immigration is laudable. Of course it&#8217;s not. It is, however, a question of costs, benefits, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This article (worded in predictably bellicose HuffPo prose) talks about a poll last week on the healthcare reform debate. Poll numbers like these are regularly cited on the right side of the fence to support the idea that the American people do not want healthcare reform.
