Blinded by Binaries: Why We Don’t See the Infinite Dignity of Two-Spirit People

There is much to learn from and praise in “Dignitas Infinita” (infinite dignity), the April 8 Vatican declaration. But its understanding of human dignity is wedded to binary opposites. This view puts the Vatican in an unholy alliance with Idaho’s legislature, which in order to wipe out the rights of transgender people has declared that there only two sexes, male and female.

The Ease of AI Making Decisions for Us Risks Losing the Skills to Do that Ourselves

In a world where what and how people think is already under siege thanks to the algorithms of social media, we risk putting ourselves in an even more perilous position if we allow AI to reach a level of sophistication where it can make all kinds of decisions on our behalf.

Spring brings new life and a deepening sense of wonder and awe at God’s creation. For those in Spokane, it also brings the Spokane Guilds School Penny Drive.

I have found that supporting the Spokane Guild School is more than a way of saying thank you for all they have done for our community, and especially my family and son, but a deep form of prayer. Jesus, on the night before he was executed on the cross, laid down the foundation for following him.

When we love one another, we find that we are fully alive. Every time my family has help, as we will again this weekend (at the corner of Sullivan and Sprague) we have found that Spokane open its heart and supports the children of the Guild School. I understand the way of Jesus, the way of love, and know that it is the most powerful way.  Come by with your pennies and regardless of your beliefs, know that here you can experience love in the eyes of the volunteers, the young people engaged and in the very lives of the kids the Guild School has helped.
