Ms. Parker, Happy Labor Day! What follows may seem harsh. I am a man of faith; not of religion. Having read your Sunday Post column on evangelicals, I offer what follows. I left a company in 1993 as one of its vice presidents to enter theology school/seminary. At that time I was 48 years old. […]

Good Sunday to each of you. The GOP’s quiet resignation over the Trumpian tyranny against our Republic speaks volumes about their complicity in this moment of historical treachery.

Right around Memorial Day weekend of that year, I met the man who would become my first partner. We remained in our relationship for eight years; bonded as close friends until […]
