The storm ahead

An enlightening column from the Jerusalem Post on the widening gap between American Jews and Israel. Daniel Gordis points out the essential element of US support for the Jewish national expression of statehood in the Holy Land. I mused on the Christian obligation to the Jewish state (click here to read it) in trying to explore whether or not there are religious grounds that should compel the west to support Israel. This column looks at the same relationship between the west and Israel through the lens of the Diaspora. It makes for interesting reading.

All good things must come to an end

Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p.
