Extractions: by Jan Shipps If stereotypes were glass, the ice-covered floor of the stadium where the closing ceremonies of the 2002 Winter Olympics were held would have been littered with shards. Shattered were the images of Mormonism as a peculiar faith tradition ensconced in the intermountain region of the American West, and of members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as spooky clean-cut zealots whose main goal is making converts. Rather than being pestered to convert to their faith, most visitors to Salt Lake City encountered Latter-day Saints who were simply doing their best to be, as the church put it, "gracious hosts." Youthful and attractive "lady missionaries" were eager to answer religious questions, but only on historic Temple Square. Elsewhere the Saints were just there to be helpful and, no less significantly, to join in the fun.

Extractions: Listen to your father who begot you, and do not despise your mother when she is old. -Proverbs 23:22 Main While reading Augustine's City of God, I find a number of things striking, particularly the constant scorn Augustine heaps on the Roman pagans for their decadent pursuit of the pleasure of the stage. Augustine wrote The City of God in defense of the Christian God, Jesus Christ, and the Christians who worshipped Him. Rome had just been sacked by the Barbarians and the Romans said Christians were responsible for this defeat because they refused to worship the Roman gods. According to the Romans, their gods had been offended by the Christians' refusal to honor them so they abandoned Rome to her enemies and she was overthrown. About as politically incorrect as a man could be, Augustine refuses to acknowledge the Roman gods as any gods at all, but rather calls them demons, devils, and no gods at all. Pointing out that when the Barbarians were destroying Rome they acknowledged the Christian houses of worship as safe houses and didn't harm anyone gathered there, Augustine reminds the Romans that the Barbarians extended no such respect to the temples of the Roman gods. Why were the Roman gods so impotent, he asks? And isn't it even more humiliating to the Roman gods that those who worshipped them joined with Christians in fleeing into Christian houses of worship for safety, acting as if they were Christians to save their skin? Augustine moves on to compare the character of Romans with that of Christians, and the principal evidence he cites of the Romans' moral lassitude and effeminate degeneracy is their love of all forms of amusementparticularly the amusement Christians saw as the depth of depravity, the theater.

Extractions: Main In response to complaints stemming from our recent article , the German Embassy in Washington, D.C. has been sending out the following standardized email on Ambassador Ischinger's comments regarding Central and Eastern Europe as quoted in the current May 30, 2005 edition of "The New Yorker": Thank you very much for your response to the article in The New Yorker which quotes the German Ambassador Wolfgang Ischinger on transformation in Europe. The Ambassador has asked me to convey to you the following: My statement that "the region in this world that has seen the most transformation and change is Central and Eastern Europe" should have continued "since 1990". My unfortunate omission may have created the impression that I was not specifically referring to the peaceful transformational change since the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Soviet Union, - the last 15 years. I am, of course, totally aware of the horrible history of bloodshed, terror and repression that characterized much of Europe in the first half of the 20th century and, in certain parts of Europe, well beyond 1945."

Extractions: But I soon gave up all attempts at keeping a seat in one of these cars. It became my practice to sit down on the outside iron rail behind, and as the conductor generally sat in my lap I was in a measure protected. As for the inside of these vehicles the women of New York were, I must confess, too much for me. I would no sooner place myself on a seat, than I would be called on by a mute, unexpressive, but still impressive stare into my face, to surrender my place. From cowardice if not from gallantry I would always obey; and as this led to discomfort and an irritated spirit, I preferred nursing the conductor on the hard bar in the rear. In attempting to describe this difference in the political action of the two countries, I am very far from taking all praise for England or throwing any reproach on the States. The political action of the States is undoubtedly the more logical and the clearer. That, indeed, of England is so illogical and so little clear that it would be quite impossible for any other nation to assume it, merely by resolving to do so. Whereas the political action of the States might be assumed by any nation tomorrow, and all its strength might be carried across the water in a few written rules as are the prescriptions of a physician or the regulations of an infirmary. With us the thing has grown of habit, has been fostered by tradition, has crept up uncared for, and in some parts unnoticed. It can be written in no book, can be described in no words, can be copied by no statesmen, and I almost believe can be understood by no people but that to whose peculiar uses it has been adapted.

Extractions: September 2000 vol. 55 no. 3 Back to Table of Contents Audio version of the manifesto (mp3, 10.2mb) Prairie religion William Least Heat-Moon in his book PrairyErth (p. 586) tells about a talk he had with Jesse, the grandson of a Kansa Indian chief. They were talking and through the open door Heat-Moon hears a peculiar wavering sound. He asks what sort of bird that is. Jesse says, "Isn't a birdit's wind hung up in the fence wire." Great plains-style religion is that contentious but also pragmatic religious sensibility that came with the settlers when European cultures moved west. It is a Mennonite sensibility, and my own history. The Kansa Indian Jesse's phrase was "Wind hung up in a fence wire". It's a good name for prairie religion. Peter Steinharts writes that "The Jews, Arabs, Romans, Greeks, and Aztecs all took their word for spirit from the word for wind." (Quoted in PrairyErth , p. 25) Religion often tries to capture that Spiritruns fence wire to hang up the wind. Much prairie religion was about being right, and having others be wrong. In between was a fence, and the Spirit wind got hung up on it. This fierce settler religion divided and divided. Among Baptists there were these congregations: Hard Shell, Free Will, Particular, Seceder, Seventh-day, Six-Principle and Two-Seeds-in-the-Spirit Predestinarian. (Mennonites need to learn to be more creative with church-names when we split up.)

Extractions: By Alphabet : Encyclopedia A-Z B Related Category: Protestant Denominations Brethren, German Baptist religious group. They were popularly known as Dunkards, Dunkers, or Tunkers, from the German for "to dip," referring to their method of baptizing. The Brethren evolved from the Pietist movement in Germany. The first congregation was organized there in 1708 by Alexander Mack. Persecution drove them to America where, under Peter Becker, they settled (1719) in Germantown, Pa. From that and other settlements in Pennsylvania they spread westward and into Canada. The Brethren oppose war and advocate temperance, the simple life, plain dress, and "obedience to Christ rather than obedience to creeds and cults." The original group, at present the largest in the United States, is the Church of the Brethren (Conservative Dunkers); the local churches are united by an annual conference that elects a general board to supervise the national church program. From the Church of the Brethren there have been separations into the Seventh-Day Baptists, German Baptists (1728; see Beissel, Johann Conrad

Hallandale Beach Boulevard turns more mundane and suburban just before it crosses I-95 into a world of Scarlett's, Mattress Giant, and Circle K. It's the tiny, mobile-home ville of Pembroke Park. The drab, littered parking lot of another strip club, the Booby Trap, is slowly coming to life this afternoon. Then, somehow, Hallandale Beach Boulevard is Miramar Parkway. In the space of a few blocks, the terrain gradually shifts to include patty shops and a hair-braiding parlor or two. There're more tricked-out cars over here, more yellow-frilled green, gold, and black JA flags swinging from visors.
