Good food vs. social Puritanism  

1 day ago by Cleary Squared

I've never been to the South Street Diner - at any hour - but as far as I know, it's open 24 hours a day.

1 day ago by The TOQ Classics Corner

Benjamin Franklin, 1706 - 1790 The Perfectibility of Man! Ah heaven, what a dreary theme! The perfectibility of the Ford car! The perfectibility of which man? I am many men.

Religious Zealotry and Mental Illness  

2 days ago by beatdown

Maybe people were crazier back in the day, or at least a lot more gullible, but if someone today came around talking about a burning bush and having spoken to God, how credible would be that person? Would anyone believe them? Anyone who isn’t already drunk on the “word” and thumping their own bible ...

On Puritanism  

5 days ago by missivesfrommarx

The best definition of Puritanism I’ve ever heard was this: Puritanism is the fear that someone, somewhere, might be enjoying themselves. Does anyone know who said this?

6 days ago by Joyce

A storm rocks the boat carrying Puritans to America. But young Susannah Hutchins huddles into the safety of her mother's arms. The family expects to find freedom of religion in this new land. What they find instead, is a classic religious battle between grace and law. The reader feels the tension ea ...

The Real Christ-Like Christians are often the ones to be Un-appreciated.  

7 days ago by Crazy Calvinist

When he was about to speak before the Diet of Worms is one such example. John Foxe in his Acts and Mo ...
