(ABP) -- I have decided that it is not my place as one offering Christian moral witness to endorse any nation’s wars, including my own. This is a change for me. In previous times I have weighed in either for (Afghanistan, 2001), or against (Iraq, 2003) America’s decisions to go to war. But I have concluded that for me, joining the nation’s punditocracy in evaluating the nation’s wars within the framework of the nation’s interests, even if layered over with some just-war theory, manifests a confusion of loyalties and calling.

(ABP) -- From a Christian perspective aiming to advance human dignity at every stage of life, the version of the health-care bill that passed in the House Nov. 7 was a remarkable public-policy victory. It is stronger than the version that passed the Senate Finance Committee, and dwarfs in impact the Republican alternative offered in the House by Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio).
