...Those who listen to their iPod every second traveling to and from somewhere are missing out on precious sounds. The New England wind, for example, especially at this time of year, can create symphonies not available on iTunes. We rarely close our eyes to the bustling, vibrant city we inhabit, but seemingly all the time we close our ears to it. This year, resolve to be a better listener, to your friends and to your world.

Despite their near-constant presence in newsprint and political media, evangelical Christians constitute only 26.3 percent of religious adults in America. Yet, if Bill Maher’s recent film “Religulous” and a wave of secularist polemics are any indication, extreme religious views are being used...
