Infectious anger

March 14—Pauline Marie Ferrill on Facebook

Perhaps the fact that other countries are tired of China hiding outbreaks and stealing intellectual property might help the Chinese people secure for themselves a more democratic government.

March 14—John Kloosterman on Facebook

This seems to have distracted attention from Hong Kong protesters. We can hope China will capitulate there just to focus on the new problem.

Shadow groups within shadow groups

It is sad to know of Iranian brothers and sisters in Christ who are being abused in this way. Thank you for this vital information that is not available elsewhere.

The right feminism

March 14—Christine Best Lister on Facebook

I’ve dug deeper into myself as a mother more than I ever did as a childless woman. My children’s honesty keeps me real. The ugly within me is just as powerful as the magnificent, and I saw neither fully without my children.

A socialist future?

Border blowback

Magical thinking all around us

Dreaming is so much easier than planning and hard work, and when the dreams don’t work out, I can always say that I had good intentions.

Peanut protection

March 14—Shari Smith on Facebook

I have a friend whose daughter was severely allergic to peanuts and is halfway through oral immunotherapy. She can now, for the first time in years, safely eat without worrying about cross-contamination.
