Morning Briefing
For March 26, 2014

Faith and Work
There are moments when I am reminded that there are two Americas. Increasingly those Americas are divided by faith and lack of faith — or at least ignorance of faith. Yesterday was one of those days when a friend emailed me this tweet by Brian Beutler of the left-wing trolling site Salon (though soon to be at the credible left-wing site The New Republic).

Beutler asked, in his tweet, “For what practical reasons might a corporation adopt a religious identity other than to burden employees, customers, competitors etc?” He followed it up later by stating, “Getting lots of derp … but nobody arguing that religious entrepreneurs were harmed all the years they lacked this right.”

Beutler, in two tweets, exposes blinding ignorance, but is a voice respected by the left and who helps shape the opinions of others. . . . please click here for the rest of the post

Tim Cook rebutted him forcefully, and rightly, that if the guy didn’t like Apple’s commitment against climate change the guy could ditch the stock.  . . . please click here for the rest of the post

Yesterday, the West took a small step towards recognizing Russia for what it is: a rogue state that will operate outside international norms to aggrandize power and territory to itself.
