Passionately Against The Passover

By Vaughn Klingenberg | Published: April 1, 2010
In the March 2010 edition of The Edge, Lenni Garin gives a highly suspect rendition of the judicial murder of Jesus as orchestrated by the Jewish religious establishment in ancient Jerusalem. Lenni doesn't necessarily object to the murder of Jesus (at least she doesn't say she does), just to the unpleasant way it is portrayed in the (largely [...]

Jesus

By Deepak Chopra | Published: January 1, 2009
An excerpt from the HarperCollins book, from part one: Seeker A horse!" the temple lad cried as he ran in panting for breath. "Quick, come and see.""Why?" I asked without looking up.

A Christmas Message

By Deepak Chopra | Published: December 1, 2008
At this time of year many people remember the birth and life of Jesus. Was the world he was born into really that much different from our own? Was there not the same need for peace and stability then as now? What does Jesus's life truly represent to the world today? What if Jesus wanted his followers - and us [...]
