  • It is times like these that it is absolutely clear that Trump has no understanding of how our government works.

    I think we can all agree that it is comical to think that there is enough support in congress to propose and state legislatures to ratify a constitutional amendment to change the interpretation of plainly and clearly written text and over 100 years of legal precedent.

    Next, please.

  • Saddened to read one of my favorite tech writers of all time has passed away way too soon. I first discovered Om Malik through Business 2.0 magazine and then followed his blog-turned-empire GigaOm and eventually his most recent blog On my Om.

    Om had this way of making really complex business and technology topics understandable and actually fun to read. I will miss reading his insights, and my feed reader will feel a bit less optimistic without him.

  • And this, my friends, is why Missouri and American politics are in the state they are right now. Ms. Lueck’s instinct to bring religion into a conversation about No Kings is, of course, ridiculous and ill informed, but it is also not isolated to her.

    To the editor:

    Once again, there were those that proclaimed that they have no king.

    Well, I would like to share my king with all of you. His promise is sure. His goodness is limitless. His grace is sufficient. His reign is righteous. His mercy is everlasting. His yoke is easy and his burden is light. He guards and he guides. He heals the sick. He forgives the sinner, and he does so much more. He is the king of kings. His name is Jesus.

    A political system rooted in religion is bound to ultimately fail as history has shown us time and time again. And let’s be honest with ourselves. A government based on the many Christian religions is no better and no more righteous than a government based on Judaism or Islam. They just use different words and use different rules to control people.

    It is well past time that we make our American government religion-agnostic like it was intended. No more “In god we trust” on our money and in our government buildings. No more “under god” in our Pledge. No more “god bless America” at the end of every speech. It is time to recognize how irrelevant and, in some cases, offensive these words are to a large portion of our citizens. We can do and be better.
