Google never ceases to amaze - Mere Orthodoxy | Christianity, Politics, and Culture

A new little feature, the recently upgraded Google Toolbar, now allows for instant translation, spell-checking, and instant image search. I’m a fan.

What about Google’s privacy policies? Any opinions out there? From the little reading I did, I do not feel violated by their policies, but I’d be curious to hear from someone who has thought this through (who is also not paranoid or angry.)

From our readers.

I'm very grateful for the work of Mere Orthodoxy. It has been a genuine companion on my spiritual journey.

Thank you for offering thoughtful, reasonable and decent commentary. It is a boon to my sanity at this stage of my life in this cultural moment.

I used to be a campus minister with a parachurch organization. In finding Mere Orthodoxy, it has felt like a little more balance in perspectives like I had when I worked for the ministry. Appreciate your work as it grows my faith.

Mere Orthodoxy is (for me) a counterpoint to social media, a place of depth and critical thought.

I love Mere Orthodoxy! One of the best protestant publications out there!
