On Fri\u00addays I share articles\/resources about broad cul\u00adtur\u00adal, soci\u00adetal and the\u00ado\u00adlog\u00adi\u00adcal issues. Be sure to see the expla\u00adna\u00adtion and dis\u00adclaimers at the bot\u00adtom. I wel\u00adcome your sug\u00adges\u00adtions. If you read some\u00adthing fas\u00adci\u00adnat\u00ading please pass it my way.<\/p>\n

This week was espe\u00adcial\u00adly hard for me to put togeth\u00ader. I stum\u00adbled upon so much insight\u00adful writ\u00ading this week! I had to ruth\u00adless\u00adly elim\u00adi\u00adnate some that I real\u00adly liked, so I hope you enjoy these gems that sur\u00advived my ruth\u00adless win\u00adnow\u00ading process.<\/p>\n

  1. Slain mis\u00adsion\u00adary John Chau pre\u00adpared much more than we thought, but are mis\u00adsion\u00adar\u00adies still fools?<\/a> (Ed Stet\u00adzer, Wash\u00ading\u00adton Post): \u201c\u2026Mary Ho, who leads All Nations (the agency that sent Chau on mis\u00adsions), indi\u00adcat\u00aded that he was heav\u00adi\u00adly vac\u00adci\u00adnat\u00aded and even quar\u00adan\u00adtined before going on the mis\u00adsion. The Wash\u00ading\u00adton Post report\u00aded Tues\u00adday night that Chau also under\u00adtook lin\u00adguis\u00adtic and med\u00adical train\u00ading to pre\u00adpare for the out\u00adreach. These new reports at a min\u00adi\u00admum chal\u00adlenge the sim\u00adplis\u00adtic image of an adven\u00adture-seek\u00ading zealot will\u00ading to reck\u00adless\u00adly risk the lives of a remote group of islanders.\u201d By far the best arti\u00adcle I\u2019ve read on this sub\u00adject.<\/li>\n
  2. Lib\u00ader\u00adal Par\u00adents, Rad\u00adi\u00adcal Chil\u00addren<\/a> (David Brooks, New York Times): \u201cIn the age of social media, virtue is not defined by how com\u00adpas\u00adsion\u00adate\u00adly you act. Virtue is defined by how vehe\u00adment\u00adly you react to that which you find offen\u00adsive. Virtue involves the self-dis\u00adplay of a cer\u00adtain indig\u00adnant sen\u00adsi\u00adbil\u00adi\u00adty, and any\u00adbody who doesn\u2019t dis\u00adplay that sen\u00adsi\u00adbil\u00adi\u00adty is moral\u00adly sus\u00adpect.\u201d An insight\u00adful col\u00adumn \u2014 this excerpt does not do it jus\u00adtice.\n
