Borella VC - Territory Hero of the Great War by Dr Tom Lewis OAM
5:15pm Thursday 12 March (To include reflections on the Borella Ride)
Who was Albert Borella? Melbourne fireman, militia soldier, adventurer to the Outback interior, he was working around Tennant Creek when he made the journey to Darwin to enlist in the First World War. He made his way walking, by horse, mail cart and rail. Borella then had to travel to Townsville by boat to enlist in the Army. Once in Europe he served in Gallipoli with the 26th Battalion; transferred with it to the Western Front, was promoted three times, wounded, commissioned as an officer, and decorated three times - finally with the VC for an infantry action where he led from the front.
Borella survived the war and returned to Australia, he raised a family, and served with Home Forces when once again duty called in the Second World War.
Free event, open to the public. Booking preferred
2015 NT Literary Awards Opening Soon
Pens at the ready…
The Northern Territory Library is accepting entries for the 2015 Northern Territory Literary Awards from Monday 23 March.
We are proud to act as custodian of these awards which acknowledge written works of outstanding literary merit and reward the achievements of Northern Territory writers.
The Awards offer Northern Territory residents the opportunity to win generous cash prizes and gain valuable exposure for themselves and their literary works.
Borella's War : the making of a legend
Monday 2 February – Sunday 31 May
Albert Borella came to the Northern Territory in 1913 to try his luck on the agricultural fields of the Daly River. Just over a year later he journeyed back to Darwin by foot, on horseback and finally by train, determined to enlist for service in the First World War.
Borella served at Gallipoli and on the Western Front with great distinction. Showcasing rare photographic material, this impressive exhibition locates Albert Borella's remarkable personal story within the broader story of Northern Territory development and the significant contribution made by Territorians to the First World War.
Find out more about Albert Borella at The Borella Ride, the Northern Territory Government's flagship Anzac Centenary activity.
Paintings by Judy Cassab
Judy Cassab was born in Austria in 1920 to Hungarian parents. She is one of Australia's best known portrait artists, twice winning the prestigious Archibald Prize. Cassab is also a distinguished landscape artist, drawing on her European aesthetic and training to produce stunning works of the Australian landscape. The Central Australian landscape captivated her and was the subject of many of her artworks.
Cassab wished to see more of her Northern Territory landscapes in public collections in the Territory and, through her son and fellow artist John Seed, arranged in 2014 to gift three of her works to the Northern Territory Library: Early Morning Rainbow Valley, 1985, Lagoon Ormiston, 1992 and Blue Night Rainbow Valley, 2004. We thank Judy for her wonderful gift.

To make up for the difference between the calendar year and the actual time that the earth rotates around the sun or the actual time that the moon rotates around the earth, a leap year has a different number of days from a standard calendar year. Each Calendar implementation defines leap years differently.

''And I want to get a win. That would just start the team up and build confidence for everybody.''Watkins has shown glimpses of why the Bills regarded him so highly in the draft. Buffalo gambled by trading its 2015 first-round pick to Cleveland and moved up five spots to select the Clemson player at No. 4.He's shown breakaway speed by making numerous deep catches along the sideline, eliciting huge cheers from the stands.Watkins became a YouTube and Twitter sensation after videos showed him stumbling and nearly falling before recovering to make a one-handed catch in the end zone.Despite a slim, 6-foot-1, 211-pound frame, he's proven fearless in making catches in traffic. That was apparent during a full-team drill on the second day of camp.Quarterback EJ Manuel's pass was tipped at the line of scrimmage and fluttered high into the air. Watkins raced back to make a leaping grab amid three defenders and came down with the ball in a pile of players. He also got poked in the eye.''There are two things I can do: I can wait for it to get picked off, or I can go make a play on it,'' Watkins said. ''My first reaction was the ball was in the air, go make a play on it.''Center Eric Wood is among Bills veterans impressed by Watkins.''At this point, it wasn't like shocking. I almost expected it,'' Wood said, referring to Watkins' one-handed catch. ''He is exactly what you'd hope for given what we gave up to get him and how we took him.''That's an encouraging step for a Manuel-led passing attack that lacked consistency and big-play ability during the quarterback's rookie season last year and contributed to the Bills' 6-10 finish.''As a coach, you have expectations, but he's performed better than I would've expected,'' coach Doug Marrone said of Watkins. ''I think a lot of people are excited.''Giants safety Stevie Brown is looking forward to a closer view of Watkins.''He was definitely deserving to be the top receiver taken,'' Brown said. ''He can jump over you and then take it 20 yards more. He's got the ability to make tough catches. If he catches the ball, I can never let up on getting after him.''The Giants will unveil a new offensive style under new coordinator Ben McAdoo. They're introducing a quick-paced, no-huddle attack to help take the pressure off quarterback Eli Manning, who threw a career-worst 27 interceptions last season.''I think we are going to put us right to the test and see how well we know the offense, know how well this thing can perform at a high level,'' receiver Victor Cruz said.Cruz returns as Manning's top threat, and third-year receiver Rueben Randle has moved into the No. 2 spot after the Giants lost Hakeem Nicks in free agency.The Giants also used a first-round draft pick on a receiver, selecting Odell Beckham Jr. with the 12th pick. However, Beckham hasn't participated fully in practice since hurting his hamstring on the first day of camp.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Promoted Stories Comments More NFL

COCOA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Nineteen surfing Santas brought some cheer to beach-goers as they hit the waves on Florida's Space Coast.
Water temperatures were in the 60s when the group gathered with their boards Christmas Eve, but they were undeterred. They wore red suits and beards. One surfer had a board covered in wrapping paper. Another donned a life preserver — for safety, sure, but also for a nice Santa belly. There was even a Mrs. Claus among the lot.
It's the second year surfer George Trosset has held the event. The Rockledge, Fla., resident is hoping to convince folk at Guinness World Records to create a category for "Santa surfing."

Roberto Mancini believes his Manchester City players need to dig deep if they are to avoid exiting the Champions League at the group stage for the second consecutive season, the BBC has reported.
Mancini watched on as City were held at home to a draw by Borussia Dortmund, the champions of Germany. It took a last minute Mario Balotelli penalty to deliver even a point after Marco Reus put the visitors in front shortly after the hour mark.
In their first match in this season's competition City were on the other end of a late goal, beaten by Real Madrid despite having led the fixture 2-1 with only minutes to go, but two goals, the last from Cristiano Ronaldo, turned the score line on its head.
Mancini said after the match on Wednesday evening that City need to find something more than ability if they are to make anything of themselves in the Champions League this season. He added: "We have to run and fight. It's not enough to just pass. Champions League is another situation - different from the championship. It's not enough to just have quality."

US 6957492 B1 Abstract A cooking implement is disclosed which is comprised of a hollow sheath and a utensil, wherein the utensil can be stored within the hollow sheath. The utensil can be a fork, knife, spoon, skewer or any myriad of other types of utensils. The sheath serves as both a storage compartment for the utensil, and when coupled to the end of the utensil, serves as an elongate handle which allows the user to stand back a safe distance while manipulating food items over flames and smoke. When the utensil is stored within the hollow sheath, the implement is very compact and can fit easily in a portable cooler or the like for later use at a barbeque, camping event or any other outdoor cooking venue. The implement also has a hanger to allow it to be hung at any desired cooking location by the user.
Claims(2) 1. A cooking implement, comprising:
a hollow sheath, said sheath being closed at a first end and having an opposite female end, said female end opening into an expanded section comprising a larger inside diameter than the remainder of said sheath;
a utensil comprising a utensil end for interacting with a food item and an opposite male portion for inserting into said female end of said sheath;
said expanded section being diametrically and longitudinally sized to snugly receive said male portion in a friction fit and upon joining said male portion to said female end, said sheath forming an elongate handle for grasping by a user to manipulate said utensil end;
said male portion further comprising a rounded end and an opposite end, wherein upon inserting said utensil end into said hollow sheath, said opposite end of said male portion seats within said expanded section with a friction fit to fully enclose said utensil end within said sheath.
2. The cooking implement as recited in
Description This invention relates to the field of cooking implements, and more specifically to cooking implements which can be safely used in a cooking environment of heat and flames. Many cooking environments produce an abundance of heat, smoke and flames Indoor and outdoor grills, camp fires, gas and charcoal barbeques all have the potential for producing heat, smoke and flames. In flame-up situations especially, the chef must act quickly to move a food item outside of the flames or else the food item will become burned beyond recognition. To assist in manipulating food items in these environments, a variety of long-handled cooking implements have been devised. Long forks, tongs, knives, and the like have been developed to allow a chef to safely stand away from the heat and flames and manipulate food items to a safer location on the cooking surface. While useful, these long implements cannot be easily broken down to a more manageable size for placing in a small portable cooler, for example, so that the implement can be transported and re-assembled at another cooking location. Along with the lack of portability, it is a given that cooking implements introduced into an environment of smoke and flames become greasy and dirty. Transporting the presently available long implements requires that they be washed thoroughly, and/or wrapped to avoid contacting and contaminating clothing or automobile upholstery, for example. As such, present long implements are best suited to remain at a single cooking location, due to their impracticality in transporting to other locations in a dirt free manner. Also having sharp utensil ends exposed can be a source for injury as a user reaches for an implement. Exposed fork ends or knife blades of an implement placed in a bag or cooler during transport create a real possibility for injury when a user reaches into the bag or cooler to retrieve the implement for use at another location. It is best if the implements incorporate a sheath or cover over the exposed sharp edges to lend to a safer cooking implement. U.S. Pat. No. 604, 965 issued to Cartwright discloses a combination potato masher, kettle cleaner and fork. Of interest in this patent is that a hollow sheath serves as a basis for attaching a potato masher and further as a storage device for the fork. Here, the fork is kept free from contact with other surfaces while being stored within the sheath, however, the potato masher implement remains exposed, and is bulky, creating both potential for contamination and creating difficulty in transport due to its ungainly structure. A potato masher is not an implement that is used for manipulating food items in smoke and flames and removing the potato masher from the sheath exposes the fork to the outside environment, thereby reintroducing the potential for contamination from the fork. Therefore, a needs exists for a long implement that is practical for manipulating food items in heat, smoke and flames and that can additionally be broken down to a manageable size for transporting to other cooking environments without the potential for contaminating clothing, upholstery and the like. The inventive apparatus is a cooking implement comprised of a hollow sheath and a utensil. The hollow sheath is closed at a first end and open at an opposite, female end. The utensil has a male portion coupled to a utensil end which can be a fork or a knife blade, for example. The male portion couples with the open female end of the sheath Upon joining the female end of the sheath with the male portion of the utensil, the sheath forms an elongated handle for grasping by a user and also for manipulating the end of the utensil which contacts a food item being cooked. The hollow sheath of the inventive cooking implement is sized to allow the utensil to be stored therein, and the male portion of the utensil forms a cap or closure of the hollow cavity of the sheath. In the stored configuration, the sheathed utensil portion of the cooking implement is entirely sealed off from outside air or light thereby preventing contamination of clothes or upholstery from occurring, and also covering all sharp utensil edges. These features allow the device to be safely transported in a compact and manageable manner to different cooking locations, including outdoor barbeques, campsites, and the like. Accordingly, the following objects and advantages of the invention apply: It is an object of this invention to provide an inventive cooking implement that when assembled, provides a long implement having a length sufficient for safe cooking in the presence of heat and flames. It is an object of this invention to provide an inventive cooking implement which can be broken down into a compact format. It is still another object of this invention to provide an inventive cooking implement which provides a sheath for covering sharp utensil edges during its stored configuration. It is another object of this invention to provide an inventive cooking implement wherein the food contacting utensil can be easily stored and sealed off from light and air so as to avoid contamination of clothes, upholstery and the like. Further objects and advantages of the invention will be brought out in the following portions of the specification, wherein the detailed description is for the purpose of fully disclosing preferred embodiments of the invention, without placing limitations thereon. The invention will be more fully understood by reference to the following drawings which are for illustrative purposes only: Referring to Finally, although the description above contains many specificities, these should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention but as merely providing illustrations of some of the presently preferred embodiments of this invention. This invention may be altered and rearranged in numerous ways by one skilled in the art without departing from the coverage of any patent claims which are supported by this specification.

The annual art show at Gutenberg College highlights the performing and visual art of students from Gutenberg College. Performance begins at 7:00 pm. Limited seating is first-come, first-served. A gallery reception follows. A donation of $3.00 for admission is requested but not required. All donations help support the arts at Gutenberg College.
I came across the following quote from the philosopher Richard Rorty. I think it is one of the scariest things I have ever read. It is a precise picture of the anti-Gutenberg, which just shows the need for the Gutenbergs of the world to exist as an alternative.
]]>It seems to me that the regulative idea that we … heirs of the Enlightenment, we Socratists, most frequently use to criticize the conduct of various conversational partners is that of "needing education in order to outgrow their primitive fears, hatreds, and superstitions"…. It is a concept which I, like most Americans who teach humanities or social science in colleges and universities, invoke when we try to arrange things so that students who enter as bigoted, homophobic, religious fundamentalists will leave college with views more like our own….
The fundamentalist parents of our fundamentalist students think that the entire "American liberal Establishment" is engaged in a conspiracy…. These parents have a point. Their point is that we liberal teachers no more feel in a symmetrical communication situation when we talk with bigots than do kindergarten teachers talking with their students…. When we American college teachers encounter religious fundamentalists, we do not consider the possibility of reformulating our own practices of justification so as to give more weight to the authority of the Christian scriptures. Instead, we do our best to convince these students of the benefits of secularization. We assign first-person accounts of growing up homosexual to our homophobic students for the same reasons that German schoolteachers in the postwar period assigned The Diary of Anne Frank….
You have to be educated in order to be a citizen of our society, a participant in our conversation, someone with whom we can envisage merging our horizons. So we are going to go right on trying to discredit you in the eyes of your children, trying to strip your fundamentalist religious community of dignity, trying to make your views seem silly rather than discussable. We are not so inclusivist as to tolerate intolerance such as yours….
I don't see anything herrschaftsfrei [domination free] about my handling of my fundamentalist students. Rather, I think those students are lucky to find themselves under the benevolent Herrschaft [domination] of people like me, and to have escaped the grip of their frightening, vicious, dangerous parents…. It seems to me that I am just as provincial and contextualist as the Nazi teachers who made their students read Der Sturmer; the only difference is that I serve a better cause.
["Universality and Truth," in Robert B. Brandom (ed.), Rorty and His Critics (Oxford: Blackwell, 2000), pp. 21-22.]
…Everyone wants to live in a world in which evil can still be recognized, have meaning, and require a response.
When this desire takes the form of an effort to get back the sense of evil in ways that have been superseded by history, it can't succeed. Sin and sexuality, for instance, will never be reconnected as they once were, because the original linkage doubtless arose as a means of establishing social stability at a time when sex could not be separated from pregnancy. Morals do not have genealogies, and like an infertile family, a particular moral idea can reach a point where the linage comes to an end. For most of human history, uncontrolled female sexuality was deemed sinful because it had a calculable social cost. It was incompatible with the patrilinear family and, later, with the whole social organization of bourgeois society. It was taboo, or sin, whose rationality needed no defense. But when the technology of modern contraception broke this chain of cause and effect between sex, pregnancy, and morality, it broke it permanently. To try to get back this shattered ideal of chastity as virtue, as some well-meaning people are trying to do, is to tinker with the fragments that cannot be reassembled into their old integrity. Our understanding of evil needs to be renewed, not restored. (The Death of Satan: How American's Have Lost the Sense of Evil. Farrar, Straus and Giroux, New York, New York 1995, p.16.)
In the second way of understanding Delbanco's argument, a consequentialist theory of morals and ethics is assumed to be true, but it is not the individual that believes it; rather, it is the culture that believes it. In other words, the specific argument is this: if the culture assumes a modern consequentialist theory, then an individual or a group cannot succeed in redefining a concept like evil as it was defined using a different theory of ethics at a different point in history. For instance, Delbanco claims that it is wrong for an individual or a group to try to impose the early Puritan definition of evil in modern America. To define uncontrolled female sexuality as evil using the Puritan concept of sin and evil will never be accepted by modern culture because it has accepted a consequentialist theory of ethics and technology has removed the consequence—the risk of pregnancy. So rather than try to restore the Puritan concept of sin and evil, a more successful strategy would be to start the dialogue from where we are now and try to develop a new theory of evil.
I agree that it is highly unlikely that America would ever return to a Puritan perspective on sin and evil as long as the majority of the culture accepts the modern concept of sin and evil, and a strategy to restore it is unlikely to succeed. There would be too much resistance to defining those concepts in our modern language. Furthermore, even if a duty-based theory of morals and ethics is true, if the culture at large accepts a consequentialist theory, it is unwise to try to impose the true theory by trying to change the language. Starting where we are now, however, and initiating a dialog to redefine evil and sin does seem like a reasonable strategy. If this is the substance of Delbanco's argument, then I agree with him—with two caveats.
First caveat: I am not saying that Christians have no obligation to communicate the Gospel and its understanding of sin and evil to individuals in the culture. All Christians have that obligation, but that obligation is to the individual, not to the culture at large. It is not the case that all Christians ought to be working to impose a Christian understanding of sin and evil on the vocabulary of modern American culture. I believe that the trajectory of American language and concepts is in God's hands, not ours.
Second caveat: I am not saying that God may not give some people the job of influencing the culture at large. He may grant some individuals—writers, for example—a unique platform to directly influence the concepts and meanings of words in the culture. God may call them to use this platform to communicate biblical concepts, such as sin and evil, to the culture in words not commonly understood. In most cases, however, their task is not to impose their concepts and word meanings on the culture but to bring these concepts and meanings to cultural consciousness. I would not absolutely rule out the possibility that God might call such a "prophet" to confront the culture with a biblical concept of sin and evil; however, I do not see this scenario as one that God has commonly used in America recently.
In summary, Delbanco's line of reasoning can be understood two ways. I analyzed the first in my News and Views article. With the exception of my two caveats, I largely agree with the second way of understanding his argument, namely that in a culture which accepts a consequentialist theory of morals and ethics, it would be unwise for a minority to think that they could impose concepts of "sin" and "evil" on the culture at large by trying to define those words within their own language and not the culture's.
Caps Program Disciplines:
The idea of happiness has had a long history. Aristotle, for instance, thought of happiness as the fulfillment of a human being's goal in life. He distinguished man from all other creatures in the world by man's rationality and social life. Since these qualities make man unique, then his goal or purpose must be wrapped up in these qualities. Aristotle equated happiness with outstanding moral and intellectual activity in the affairs of the city state. Thomas Aquinas took a similar view, except that for him the goal of human life differed. Aquinas saw the ultimate goal of existence in eternal life. Life on earth, then, could never bring complete happiness (i.e., completion of one's goal as a human), only partial.
These ideas framed the concepts of John Locke. He wrote,
The necessity of pursuing happiness [is] the foundation of liberty. As therefore the highest perfection of intellectual nature lies in a careful and constant pursuit of true and solid happiness; so the care of ourselves, that we mistake not imaginary for real happiness, is the necessary foundation of our liberty. The stronger ties we have to an unalterable pursuit of happiness in general, which is our greatest good, and which, as such, our desires always follow, the more are we free from any necessary determination of our will to any particular action… (Essay Concerning Human Understanding)
Here Locke seems to relate happiness with the "highest perfection of the intellectual nature" and "our greatest good." This idea is clearly reminiscent of Aristotle and Aquinas. What Locke does not mean is that the pursuit of happiness is the license to please our worldly desires.
Jefferson, who immortalized the words "pursuit of happiness," was drawing directly from Locke. In this context, then, it is obvious that the pursuit of happiness belongs with life and liberty in significance.
Today the pursuit of happiness has been reinterpreted to mean the right to go after worldly benefits. We have demeaned the original intent so much that it has become diabolical. The idea that God has somehow granted us the inalienable right to obtain worldly goods is about as antithetical to the biblical picture as you can get. One cannot serve both God and mammon. And yet if a person, organization, or government places restrictions on our ability to pursue our base desires, we feel our rights have been trampled on. How dare anyone prevent us from polluting our minds with pornography!
This demeaned view of happiness is fraught with danger. We live in a culture that has imbibed this view; it is all around us, and it is difficult not to conform to it. This view of happiness is particularly heinous in that it invites us to see that which is evil as noble. We are taught that rights are good and that infringements of rights are bad. Then we are taught that we have the right to follow our base desires. It is not stated in such stark terms because we would reject it. But it is subtly implied in all that we do and hear and see.
An example of this is the battle over sex and nudity in broadcast television. The perception is that the TV censors are infringing on our rights to watch what we want. The freedom to take mind-altering drugs is also becoming a right; it makes us happy. We have a right to health care because health is a part of our pursuit of happiness. The list could go on and on.
The pursuit of happiness as it was originally conceived is noble. We should strive to become the best human beings that we can. What makes us human is bound up with our moral and intellectual gifts. To debase this excellent sentiment by making it a pursuit of money, fame, and physical gratification is a tragedy—and dangerous to our souls.
Series Conclusion
Culture is a powerful force. I think we all recognize that at some level. But knowing we are affected and recognizing how we are affected are very different things. I think the juxtaposition of cultures side by side can sometimes help to open our eyes. It is instructive to have an insightful outsider like Solzhenitsyn look into our failings as a society. It is instructive to compare the thinking of the writers of the Federalist Papers with current thought. Even so, we can never escape the danger of an intensely seductive culture. We live in it; we breath it. We conform to this world despite the warnings of Paul. And it is at this exact spot where the danger lies. We are frogs in a pot of water in need of a thermometer. Ultimately, it is the juxtaposition of our culture with God's values expressed in the Bible that provides the thermometer. But unlike frogs, we cannot jump out of the pot. We must find a path in the midst of the hot water. We must pray, as Jesus did, that God will sanctify us in the truth of His word (John 17:17).
(Part 1: Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Speech)
(Part 2: Separation of Church and State)
In the United States, it was important to have the laws clearly spelled out and inviolable. No one was above the law. Everyone was subject to it. The system of checks and balances was included specifically to prescribe the laws for the people at the top.
But every set of laws, no matter how well written, is incomplete. It cannot take into consideration every method by which people can take advantage of others. For every new law enacted to clamp down on damaging or deceitful activity, other new ways can be invented. The laws of the United States relied heavily on the character of the people. The laws specified the minimum standards of behavior, not the expectations of how people will behave outside of the law.
Over the last two centuries, the internal constraints on bad behavior have eroded. Social pressure and expectations had been the primary means to maintain decency. But we have slowly freed ourselves from those norms, and in their stead has come an increasingly bloated set of laws. What has developed is a kind of Phariseeism. We have come to think more and more that whatever is legal is right. The rule of law then becomes a game. Instead of a fixture designed to prevent the injustice of the crown or the aristocracy, the rule of law has become a game in which winners and losers are chosen not according to justice but according to cleverness and availability of resources. Clearly, there have always been those who will manipulate and steer the law to their will. But the prevalence of that attitude has increased.
This trend can easily be seen in the business world. As an example, there was a practice in Wall Street in which traders had figured out how to intercept "buy and sell" orders milliseconds prior to an exchange. Because of their physical proximity and the superior speed of their internet connection, traders could place an order microseconds prior to the intercepted transaction. By this means, they were able to legally skim profits off all transactions they intercepted. This was clearly a fraudulent activity. However, since the practice was new and undetected, it was not yet illegal and thus considered fair game.
Another obvious example of legalism is in the press, as I mentioned in a part one of this series. The press has a great deal of freedom to publish as it desires. Because of the nature of the laws, outrageous injustices can and are perpetrated by the press, all within a strictly legal framework. Individuals lacking internal constraints feel justified in their actions, especially if it brings greater income or prestige.
The legal system itself is a perfect example of the legalism that has developed. I am not directly involved with the law system, so my observations are perhaps not the most accurate. However, it sure seems as if justice takes second place to technical considerations. For instance, if a suspect confesses without the Miranda rights being first administered, the suspect can be acquitted of the charge.
The cumulative effect of legalism is to discourage internal moral constraint. To the extent that the law is seen as the criterion for right and wrong, immoral but legal behavior becomes normalized, accepted. This sort of cultural attitude is toxic to our souls. We need to encourage each other to take morality seriously. We need to have standards other than just the law. The rule of law is good, so long as it does not replace a morality based on a transcendent reality.
(Part 1: Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Speech)
(Part 2: Separation of Church and State)
Since that time, however, the separation of church and state has been reinterpreted as a separation of religion and state. This has since devolved into a prohibition against any acknowledgement of the spiritual in any governmental entity. Clearly this was not the intention of the original founders. If that were the case, then there would be no mention of God in the founding documents. Appeals to God were, in fact, common in the founding of this country.
This change is primarily a response to the growth of a politically powerful atheistic segment in society. The growth of this segment is the result of the slow but steady increase in materialistic and naturalistic philosophy in the West—basically a denial of spiritual realities.
Many of the touch points where this battle is being fought are, for the most part, not particularly significant: for example, debates on who can pray in school and when; debates on what sorts of documents can be publicly displayed; and so on. How these particular issues play out do not seem to be too significant for our cultural life, but the general trend and the drive behind the battles are very damaging.
Effectively, separation of church and state has restricted the kinds of issues that can be raised in public discourse. Only issues that deal with worldly material needs are allowed. We constantly harangue over taxes and budgets. We debate about fair labor laws and immigration. National security is contrasted with civil liberties. All of these aspects of our public life deal with our mundane interests and needs. Missing is any discussion of the fact that man is not just a material being. Instead, that man is purely material is assumed without debate in the public sphere. The assumption tacitly implies that the things of importance are material: the types of problems that we have are purely material; solutions to problems are to be accomplished through purely material means. The idea that our deepest and most profound problems are spiritual is not even on the table.
I am not suggesting that material needs are not in the purview of public life. Nor am I advocating a "Christian political agenda" as a solution to our problems. Instead, I am pointing out how the trends in our culture have devalued and marginalized many of the most important aspects of public discourse. This is perhaps dangerous to our society. But more importantly, to our great loss, it encourages us to devalue the significance of our spiritual nature.
One of the main ways that this reinterpretation of church and state has affected our culture is in education. Our goal in education is to pass on the ideas, values, and skills that will help our children live the best lives they can. Spiritual questions—such as right and wrong, what it means to be a human, and whether there is a supreme being—are central to this task. But in the current system, to raise these questions is, in fact, illegal! This sort of restriction on education surely never darkened the worst nightmares of the writers of the Constitution.
Another important consequence of this reinterpretation of church and state has to do with how society approaches social services. Federal and state social services can only consider the material well being of those in need. All analyses and researches into our social problems are purposely blind to our most important problems, spiritual problems. Such an approach is bound to lessen the success of these services. The need for the spiritual in social services can be seen in Alcoholics Anonymous. My understanding is that AA promotes the idea of a higher being in its treatment. If AA were restricted from encouraging the attendees to consider a higher power, the program would be significantly less effective, both socially and individually.
Man is a spiritual being, and everyone recognizes this whether or not they admit to it. All feel the need for purpose. All feel the need for connection and love. All feel the call to the transcendent. The idea that we should eliminate this aspect of our lives from the public sphere is self-defeating at best and malicious at worst.
(Part 1: Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Speech)
I recently had the privilege to lead discussions on two vastly different works. The first was the Federalist Papers, a series of articles written in the 1780s by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay designed to convince the voters of New York to approve the proposed Constitution of the United States. The second work, "A World Split Apart," is the transcript of a 1978 commencement address given at Harvard University by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Solzhenitsyn was famous for writing about the abuses in Soviet Russia during the Stalinist era, but this address did not critique Eastern failings; it critiqued the failings of the West.
Read together, the two works give an interesting perspective on how our culture has changed over the last two centuries. The meaning and intention of some of the most noble sentiments of the Constitution have been reinterpreted in a way that they have become dangerous to our faith. These ideas are freedom of speech, the separation of church and state, the rule of law, and the pursuit of happiness.
My intention in this series of four posts is not to write about politics. I am not offering political solutions or critiquing political problems. I am discussing social and cultural beliefs, beliefs that have become so ingrained in our cultural psyche that we cannot see them for what they are. This subtle infiltration into our consciousness is what makes them dangerous to our faith.
Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Speech
In the first amendment to the Constitution, we are guaranteed the freedom of speech and freedom of the press. The intention of this amendment was to prevent the government from clamping down on political dissention and criticism. It was assumed that the press, for instance, would act as a watchdog on corrupt or bad behavior on the part of the government. The press was also to be a source of information through which the electorate could make informed decisions. But the goal of maintaining an informed electorate by insuring a free press has not been accomplished. Instead the press reports only on what is fashionable.
This change has occurred largely due to the economic nature of public discourse. The press and the entertainment industry are subject to the economic pressure of financial success. Thus they do not write or show anything that their base subscribers or viewers dislike. If they alienate those subscribers, then the subscribers will stop watching, and revenues will go down. Thus public discourse is subject to fashion. It can inform the electorate only of what the electorate wants to hear. Unfashionable scandals are not scandals at all.
An example of the impact of fashion can be found in the news items selected by NPR. Most of the stories, except those dealing with breaking news, fall into an "oppressor vs. oppressed" narrative: some powerful, bad person or organization is causing harm to some powerless, good person or organization. We like to hear these stories because we feel for the underdog and the oppressed. These stories stir our moral outrage and draw us into action. But the world is not like that. Sure, there are powerful entities in the world that abuse their status and should be exposed. But are there not many more of the powerless and disenfranchised who do horrible things? We all know Walmart is supposed to be evil, but how many stories do you hear about people who shoplift from Walmart? I believe that such a story would not be well received. No one wants to hear about that. A powerful man who is racist is news. But a poor person who cheats on his taxes is not. Why do we care about the racist remark but not the tax evasion? I would suggest it is due to the fashion of the times.
The censorship provided by such a scheme is much more complete and pervasive than any governmental restriction of speech could ever create. It works on our ideas from the bottom up, not on our words from the top down.
Granted, there are voices that can and do offer critiques and alternative views. The impact of these voices on the culture at large, however, is minimal. On the one hand, if the views offered are completely out of fashion, then only a very small sector of the population can or will be willing to listen. Thus the effect will be marginal on society as a whole. On the other hand, some alternative views may be embraced by a large segment of the population, but these represent only a competing fashion. They will only offer debate and dissent on issues over which there is competition, which is of course healthy, but it masks the underlying similarity of opinion on other issues. We feel as if there is free discourse because of the difference of opinion, but we forget that much more is not being discussed because it is not a subject of ideological competition. The left and the right are at each other's throats, but they both seduce their supporters into accepting ideas on which they agree. How often, for instance, does the press report on the bias of its own economic orientation? How often do you see stories questioning whether higher education is primarily for job preparation? Where are the in-depth stories examining whether high tech helps or hurts society? There is little to no debate on these issues between the left and the right.
The development of a fashion in the media blinds us into thinking that we are bravely taking on the most important issues of our times. But instead, our horizons are narrowed to the most fashionable issues of our times. Our ability as a culture to interact in successful ways is limited to those sorts of solutions fashion allows. More importantly, the fashion of our media envelopes us as individuals to such an extent that it is far more difficult to discern God's view of good and evil.
An issue related to the freedom of the press is freedom of speech. Here the danger is even greater since the impact is more pervasive. As with freedom of the press, freedom of speech was designed to ensure political freedom. But the types of speech now included under the rubric of free speech has expanded well beyond freedom of political speech on issues of public concern. Freedom of speech has been reinterpreted as a ticket to spew abuse and verbally manipulate any statement without repercussion. Freedom of speech is now freedom from just about any and all restraint in speech.
As a result of our "free for all" speech, modern publications, radio, and video cater to many of our basest human desires in order to continue to titillate and excite the emotions. The strategy is to have the widest possible appeal and to keep the maximum number of readers and watchers engaged. All sorts of damaging ideas and images are thus thrust mercilessly on us, especially on our youth who are least able to resist. But if anyone tries to restrict this onslaught, "freedom of speech" is invoked to silence the naysayers.
Not only does free speech degrade our moral sensibilities, it also promotes a base form of legalism. The media, in recognizing the economic advantage of engaging our passions, constantly pushes the limits of the law in that direction. It has substituted internal restraints of goodness with external restraints of legality. Our culture now believes that it is morally acceptable to engage in character assassination, spreading of rumor, distortion of meaning, damaging innuendo, sexual exploitation, and misrepresentation—so long as it does not exceed the legal limits of such behavior. And if those people damaged by such behavior push back, the media reverts to the sacred dictum of the freedom of the press.
The danger here comes from the way the culture has demeaned kindness and decency. In the name of political freedom, we have allowed ourselves to believe that evil is OK. We have normalized unkindness in our speech. To the extent that we adopt these perspectives, we have debased ourselves and lost our way.
A Sand County Almanac (1949) by Aldo Leopold discusses the ethical relationship between man and nature. He likens it to the relationship of a master over property. Leopold wants that ethical relationship to change from a master over property to a relationship between equal citizens. Although the book has many insights, Leopold's ethics are both enlightening and frightening.
The origins of the naturalist, or "green," movement can be traced back to Leopold, whose love and respect for nature flows through the tradition of the movement. But while the naturalists took the torch of ecological awareness from Leopold, they deviated significantly from his ethics. Two terms describe the difference: citizenship and pestilence. Leopold makes man an equal to nature, while the naturalists view man as a blight on nature. The naturalists went further than Leopold originally intended, but their evolution from Leopold makes sense. They morphed Leopold's ethics, in which man is no longer a conqueror of nature but an equal citizen, into radial extremism.
The naturalist movement diverted from Leopold's line of succession, which passed instead to bio-ethical philosopher Peter Singer. Singer fleshed out Leopold's ethics and followed it to its logical conclusion. Arguing for a change of ethics similar to Leopold's, Singer proposes to end "speciesism"—that is, not to favor one living being over another purely based on its species. In a FAQ page from the Princeton University website, Singer wrote that, under the right conditions, it would be morally right to save a mouse instead of a human being if both were in a burning building and only one could be saved.
Now, some would argue that both the naturalists and Singer went further than Leopold intended. True, the naturalist's ethics are more dehumanizing than Leopold's. Singer's ethics, on the other hand, are similar to Leopold's—only more clearly articulated. So then, two views confront us: the radial naturalist's view that man is a blight on nature and Leopold's and Singer's view that man is an equal citizen with nature. Which do we follow? Either way, both ethical systems are willing to sacrifice not only man's position in nature but human lives if need be.
The two options, if followed consistently, will protect nature—but at the price of risking endangering human life. Is protecting nature so important that it justifies dehumanizing man and risking his place in the world? If the answer is yes, then society has lost sight of what's truly important.

Excited kids tug their parents' hands, pleading their parents to hurry; the parents can barely contain their children as they dash into the movie theater. The young kids finally sit in the shadowy room with their large popcorn and soda, twitching with eagerness. About fifteen minutes later, the kids are ensnared; minutes later, they are shocked and some start crying. Some kids leave the theater before the movie ends. Angry mothers write letters to producers for what they did in that movie. One dismayed kid locks himself in his room for two weeks. You may be thinking, "Why am I talking about the reaction to Bambi?" But this is the way people reacted to 1986's The Transformers: the Movie.
The reaction to Transformers: the Movie was surprising to say the least. What happened that elicited such extreme reactions from the audiences? In a shocking death scene, shocking especially for a kids' movie, the Autobots' (the good Transformers') leader, Optimus Prime, died.
I sympathize with the belief that this reaction was ridiculous. However, I have read several articles that explain why this dramatic event so affected the children who witnessed it. They did not just react to a movie character dying but to the demise of a beloved substitute-father role model. Most of the writers agreed that the movie affected their generation, the latchkey kids.
The latchkey kids were a generation from broken homes. A writer of this generation claims that all generations have a defining question; her generation's question is "When did your parents get divorced?" Since their parents were absent, particularly the fathers, kids lacked a role model to imitate and learn from. A parent-shaped vacuum developed in these children. They searched for other role-models, and since they were home alone most of the time, this source was cartoons. Kids scrutinized Saturday morning cartoons for more stable and heroic examples to follow instead of their parents. For those who watched Transformers, Optimus was a prime choice for a role model.
Three attributes of Optimus's character provided an appealing role model: stability, virtue, and humanity. In a chaotic household resulting from poor familial relationships, Optimus Prime delivered an opportunity for kids to feel secure once a day; kids knew that Optimus always overcame any obstacle or situation. Furthermore, Optimus was a simple character who embodied virtue; he protected the weak and never tolerated evil. Finally, Optimus Prime acted like a human in the series: he criticized himself when he failed; he played games with his human friends; and he expressed anger when evil won. Optimus demonstrated to kids that anyone could be a masculine hero and still display emotions.
The reaction of children to the seemingly trivial movie scene in The Transformers: the Movie revealed the non-trivial brokenness of the latchkey-kid generation. The latchkey kids had no parents to model themselves after. Optimus Prime filled that parent-shaped vacuum.

In a tour de force of electronic nose technology, Electronic Sensor Technology, LP, announced that its electronic nose, called the zNose(TM), rivals the experts at detecting TCA in cork, wine, even the air. Finally, an electronic nose has demonstrated that it can detect 2,4,6-trichloroanisole (TCA) in wine aroma at part-per-trillion (ppt) levels in 10 seconds! While other electronic noses called eNoses have quoted sensitivities in the part-per-thousand range, the zNose(TM) raises the bar by more than a billion by achieving the same performance level as human wine experts. Details of the discovery and how it was tested are described in a paper just released entitled, "Detecting 2,4,6 TCA in corks and Wine Using the zNose(TM)." The paper is available at
