Idol Chatter

A Burn or Burn profile of Mute Math almost writes itself. This is a band whose lead singer once fronted Earthsuit, a band with crystal clear Christian credentials. This is also a band who sued its label, Warner, when the label’s Christian division marketed their music. And this is a band who–to their credit–has talked…

This summer, Wednesday night is reality TV night for my digital video recorder, committing to memory both “So You Think You Can Dance” and “Top Chef” for my later consumption. Usually “Top Chef” serves up the drama with the delicious dishes its participants create, but last week’s “Dance” produced far more drama than even the…

Just when it seemed there could not be any more bizarre headlines to be made regarding O.J. Simpson and the unsolved murder of his ex-wife, Nicole, and her friend Ron Goldman, a court order has allowed the Goldman family to acquire the majority of the publishing rights to the manuscript for “If I Did It,”…

Did the double whammy of the latest Harry Potter movie (“Order of the Phoenix”) and the last Harry Potter book being released in the same 10-day span crush Christian opposition to J.K. Rowling’s wizardry? With the final installment of the Potter saga on the shelves, evangelicals and other conservative Christians seem to be cooling their…

Are there any Stryper fans out there? Or ex-Stryper fans? I’ll bet there are very few new Stryper fans, but I think I’m one of ’em, and you will be too if you pick up their new release, “Stryper—The Roxx Regime Demos.” Stryper, if you’ve never heard of them, was one of the most pioneering…

And it’s not about penguin migration as narrated by Morgan Freeman. Instead, we get two other animal protagonists, not animated in the comic-drawn sense: Seela, a walrus…

I tuned into the encore of F/X’s “Damages” premiere last night, hoping for a new slice of great material at the crossroads of faith and culture. I love law shows, and in this one Glenn Close plays Patricia Hewes, founder of the powerful Hewes & Associates litigation firm. Rose Byrne (“28 Weeks Later,” “The Dead…

Beliefnet recently interviewed Bishop E. Bernard Jordan, a self-described prophet whose book “The Laws of Thinking: 20 Secrets to Using the Divine Power of Your Mind to Manifest Prosperity” develops the think-and-grow-rich ideas also found in “The Secret.” Bishop Jordan believes that God’s description of himself in Exodus as “I AM” paves the way for…

Did Mister Rogers create a generation of slackers? Fred Rogers spent his life telling kids they were special. By telling children that he liked them, the theory goes, he freed them to like themselves. But a recent column in the Wall St. Journal has taken the host of “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” to task for giving…
