  1. The Exper\u00adi\u00adment Exper\u00adi\u00adment<\/span><\/a> (Plan\u00adet Mon\u00adey): a con\u00adsis\u00adtent\u00adly excel\u00adlent pod\u00adcast. This episode is the best expla\u00adna\u00adtion I\u2019ve heard about the repli\u00adca\u00adtion cri\u00adsis that plagues many dis\u00adci\u00adplines.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. The Faith\u00adful: Ren\u00e9 and Juan Car\u00adlos set out to con\u00advert their Colom\u00adbian megachurch to Ortho\u00addox Judaism. This is what hap\u00adpened.<\/span><\/a> (Gra\u00adciela Mochkof\u00adsky, The Cal\u00adi\u00adfor\u00adnia Sun\u00adday Mag\u00ada\u00adzine): this is a very sad sto\u00adry. The temp\u00adta\u00adtions Paul warned the Gala\u00adtians about are real.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. A Con\u00adfes\u00adsion of Lib\u00ader\u00adal Intol\u00ader\u00adance<\/span><\/a> (Nicholas Kristof, NY Times): \u201cThis bias on cam\u00adpus\u00ades cre\u00adates lib\u00ader\u00adal priv\u00adi\u00adlege. A friend is study\u00ading for the Law School Admis\u00adsion Test, and the test prepa\u00adra\u00adtion com\u00adpa\u00adny she is using offers test-tak\u00aders a tip: Read\u00ading com\u00adpre\u00adhen\u00adsion ques\u00adtions will typ\u00adi\u00adcal\u00adly have a lib\u00ader\u00adal slant and a lib\u00ader\u00adal answr.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Face\u00adbook is going to get more polit\u00adi\u00adcal\u00adly biased, not less<\/span><\/a> (Ezra Klein, Vox): \u201cThe bad press Face\u00adbook has received for polit\u00adi\u00adcal bias in recent days is like\u00adly to push it away from human cura\u00adtion and toward yet more algo\u00adrith\u00admic cura\u00adtion. The irony is that will make Face\u00adbook more of an echo cham\u00adber, not less of one. Face\u00adbook\u2019s human cura\u00adtors are under pres\u00adsure to present both sides, but its algo\u00adrith\u00admic cura\u00adtors are not.\u201d The arti\u00adcle Klein is respond\u00ading to is <\/span>For\u00admer Face\u00adbook Work\u00aders: We Rou\u00adtine\u00adly Sup\u00adpressed Con\u00adser\u00adv\u00ada\u00adtive News<\/span><\/a> (Michael Nunez, Giz\u00admo\u00addo).<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. World Hunger Is At Its Low\u00adest Point In 25 Years. Thank Democ\u00adra\u00adcy.<\/span><\/a> (Lib\u00adby Nel\u00adson, Vox): and as I nev\u00ader tire of point\u00ading out, for wide\u00adspread democ\u00adra\u00adcy <\/span>thank Bible-believ\u00ading Chris\u00adtians<\/span><\/a>. You\u2019re wel\u00adcome.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Ravi Zacharias On The Chris\u00adt\u00adian View Of Homo\u00adsex\u00adu\u00adal\u00adi\u00adty<\/span><\/a> (YouTube): the clip is 11 min\u00adutes long.<\/span><\/li>\n
  7. Where John Piper and Oth\u00ader Evan\u00adgel\u00adi\u00adcals Stand on Black Lives Mat\u00adter<\/span><\/a> (Mor\u00adgan Lee, Chris\u00adtian\u00adi\u00adty Today): \u201cPiper also encour\u00adaged white evan\u00adgel\u00adi\u00adcals to \u2018pause\u2019 before say\u00ading any\u00adthing like, \u2018All lives mat\u00adter.\u2019 \u2018Because if you quick\u00adly add that, it sounds like a rebuke,\u2019 he said. \u2018It sounds like a min\u00adi\u00admiz\u00ading of what was just said. It sounds like the point that was try\u00ading to be made isn\u2019t worth being made,\u2019 he said. \u2018\u2026 Of course that is true, all lives mat\u00adter, but oh how tim\u00ading mat\u00adters and how con\u00adtext mat\u00adters.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  8. How Bath\u00adrooms Became the New Legal Bat\u00adtle\u00adground of the Reli\u00adgious Right <\/span><\/a>(Michelle Gold\u00adberg, Slate): Very slant\u00aded but inter\u00adest\u00ading piece. \u201cPolls sug\u00adgest that a slight plu\u00adral\u00adi\u00adty of Amer\u00adi\u00adcans believe peo\u00adple should have to use the bath\u00adrooms that match the sex on their birth cer\u00adtifi\u00adcate. To a lib\u00ader\u00adal, this is evi\u00addence that more edu\u00adca\u00adtion is need\u00aded. To a con\u00adser\u00adv\u00ada\u00adtive, it\u2019s proof that aver\u00adage people\u2019s pref\u00ader\u00adences are being tram\u00adpled on.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  9. Amus\u00ading:<\/span>\n
