england: dnalgne
An MHP Interview with Lee Snelling
Being English (or some prefer British) isn’t what it use to be. You would think that a country that has such a rich history would be more proud of it. Growing up in English schools we were taught about English history and how proud we should be of it. If you expressed that sense of pride these days you are deemed a nationalist, a troublemaker, anti-immigration/xenophobic.

horton meets stein
by Zach Kincaid
An animated elephant and a foil named Ben Stein. One finds a spec, the other play on hype. Both get ridiculed but only one holds a truth worth dying for and that’s Horton... who hears a Who. ...According to Stein, the universe is ordered and purposed, aka a creator made it. But there’s a problem. A standing army of white intelligentsia has sent this idea and its carefully boxed god over the cliff to rot with Gadarene pigs.

if a man has two wives
An MHP Interview with David Petersen
Among them are several depictions of what it means to be human. Diversity in gender is one hallmark of the priestly account (Gen 1:27) whereas the notion of “the man and his wife” feature in the non-priestly account (Gen 2:25). The latter text is surely an etiology for marriage, but not a legal text.

outspoken demands: xv by king’s x
by Rupert M. Loydell
I’ve never really been one for heavy metal, nor much “christian” music. Combine the two and I conjure up the nightmare of bands like Jerusalem and their kith and kin from the 1980s: lumbering coiffured dinosaurs chanting invitations to be born again over the already clichéd riffs.

a progressive friendship: shaw & gkc
by Zach Kincaid
The century on-hand will likely offer violence that invades the territories of people much more than maps, guising technology in usefulness and medicine in necessity. Natural human functions will not provide stimuli enough for you to either live comfortably nor accomplish the demands wrought by society.
