in this work, the christian commission was directed for preparing soldiers to act upon the christian message. also, the christian commission has been remembered as an agency that distributed bibles and underwritten -- other religious reading material. it did so much more. it also engaged in activities ranging from supplying fresh food to troops, teaching black soldiers, all in an attempt to bring these men to the lord. "'s commission chairman said there is a good deal of religion in warm shirts and a good beef steaks." u.s.or commission of the was formed in the summer of 61 as an organization that attended to complement the army's medical bureau. from its inception, the sanitary commission concerned itself with problems in the army ranging from sanitation, drainage, but also diets and medical care. you probably remember, your readings this week included writings from walt whitman outlining his time as a nurse during the civil war. indid serve as a delegate the christian commission. we also had readings from mary livermore, who worked on behalf of the sanitary commission. although the

like christian dominican, like cushion delegates, christian workers were concerned with the spiritual dimension of their work. the christian commission also promoted education as a means of furthering its evangelistic aims. operating in the shenandoah valley, materials obtained from where constructing a chapel that doubled as a schoolhouse. in the evenings, the soldiers gathered for preaching and prayer meetings. during the day, it became a schoolroom. according to reverend edward p smith, who had become the commission's field secretary, forms and rude desks were on the walls. from morning until night, from 1:00, 100-200 boys in blue set and read and wrote under direction of the professor and assistance. the chaplain parlayed the popularity of his basic lessons into an opportunity for evangelism. when the school day ended, preaching and prayer soon followed. it is important to know that instruction and conversion were not restricted to white soldiers. large numbers of black troops were eager to learn. they encouraged the general in command to propose building schoolhouse facilities fo

maintain the christian commitments and composure. in our christian calling. and as we land the plane now. where jesus have just been crucified. he appears to his disciples. they are afraid. they are in a defensive path says. afraid for their own lives. and jesus appears to them through locked doors and comes to them. as a father has sent me so have i sent you. i will be with you always he declared in a thousand different ways that have the allegiance to any political party or candidate. jesus remains forever. he is the king forever. he was prophetic. he was sacrificial. the cosmic king of the university was willing to minister. and be publicly humiliated and crucified. on our behalf. to save us from our sins and a down payment for the fact that he won't return one day. one party system in which justin's will roll down like the waters. and then finally if we want to be like jesus will be humbly confident. we have a confidence that he will return one day. where humbled because it won't be as who does it. we operate in the humble confidence that christ is king a

you can easily be taking christian for no reason.lso like to touch you can't in turkey really practice your religion freely stop they are in contact with a lot of people who call us accurate say this is what has happened, we need to do something. you say is one of the most powerful stories you've seen regarding someone persevering under religious freedom violations in iraq or the places you have been? >> for example, when isis attacked muzzle in 2014, there were thousands of christians sleeping. christian neighbors, muslim fine,ors, they used to be and when all the dottie declared a caliphate, he spoke in mosul to say we gave christians and non-muslims already eight hours to leave, or you die. the muslim neighbor went to the christian neighbor knocked on the door and said i think you've heard all the dottie, saying you so if you don't flee i have a right to use your house it kill you. christian families didn't believe the neighbor would do that for them though they went back and she went to her husband shocked and said after 24 hours

christian graves dating from the first century. early evidence of a new sect that would rise to become a world religion. x. and p. alpha and omega the first and last letters of the greek alphabet suggest the all encompassing nature of god. ancient writers repeatedly reference christians and christ in their accounts of the great fire. tacitus wrote nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for their abominations called christians by the populace. rome's establishment was incensed by the egalitarian ism of the christian commune. ety were freed men sat a long aristocrats a no go in the hierarchical and class conscious society of age. and credits from delaware is the traditional roman would have looked at a christian community and set i mean i did it because their attacks that quote them and this is an outrageous gathering which permits fishmongers weiss to speak about religion and he ordered press. and credits and so a traditional roman would have found the christian community pretty scandalous

even in syria where there are 2 million christians. -- there were two christians. are less than 1 million. it is a big challenge to be a christian in a middle eastern country or an islamic world country. you cannot say whatever you want or express your faith or whatever you want. because the concept of religious freedom in east and those countries. they think this way: if you grant the plate religious freedom, they think a lot of muslims they think they become christians or atheist or whatever. the people who face blasphemy, they will be accused i hope i this ministerial -- i hope by this ministerial -- in over 80 states, we can get religious freedom improvements in those countries that take place in a rack, jordan, lebanon, and iran specifically, you cannot practice religion. you can easily be taken into the custody and persecuted for no reason. also, in turkey, and some other places, you cannot practice your religion freely. i have friends there. we are in contact with people. they call us and tell us what is happening. they tell us we need to do something. what

even in syria was two million christians and now it is less than one million christian., big challenge to be a christian in the middle eastern countries or islamic world countries. and to be, the say whatever you want or to practice your faith, whatever you want. because the concept of religious freedom in the west is -- differs in middle east or those countries. because they say, they think this way, that if you grant complete religious freedom, they think a lot of muslims, they might convert to christianity, or they become atheist or whatever. so those people will face blasphemy thing, and they will be accused of appositive that city and all those things, and i hope by this ministerial religious freedom event in the state department who brought over 80 states, if they do it simultaneously so we can see some religious freedom improvement in those countries who take place, in iraq, in jordan, in lebanon, all those countries. in iran, specifically, where you can't really practice your religion. you can easily be taking to the custody and questioned for no reason just beca

most of these young players are coptic christians. yes we offers these youngsters the chance to train a chance that's not easy to come by here in egypt. but we still have no idea i tried it three clubs and it's not like anybody told me i had to leave but i was treated very badly even when people heard my name they would be raised eyebrows and exchanged glances because my name is different i didn't feel comfortable i left. the players here are very critical of the clubs who they say discriminate against non muslim players. and i mean i've been diary gives his boys some tips the twenty two year old lives for football but he's own career was over before it had even begun. his former club wanted him to give up his christian sounding name rather than do that he gave up playing football and founded the jets we academy instead. we can cut to kids here and there's the talent but still the clubs refuse to take them on christians don't have the chance to make a career in egypt so i could almost have to say i love what i've been caught up. in th

doing it in part because christian america, the christian right, has come to believe that trump representshe heathen who is nevertheless serving god. this is the cyrus story or nebuchadnezzar, men who use power in favor of in this case the christian right, imperfect vessel who nevertheless did the job and pence is president in waiting. every day inch by inch, robert mueller and other forces bring us closer to trump perhaps leaving office and who do we get? mike pence who could be the longest serving president other than franklin roosevelt in american history. were he to succeed and then get two terms. ten-year mike pence presidency. >> describe his legislative record in the public offices he's held and been elected to. have they been that dramatic in conservative agenda that you outlined and liberals fear? >> he's voted for every conservative bill that comes along. relates to reproductive rights, gun control, taxation, you name it. and 12 years in congress never authored single successful bill with. never that interested in lawmaking but in appealing to the emotions of the christian right.

judy a christian is not a. the way that christians view jesus is that lord and savior the what use you jesus as let's discuss. it's not a historically accurate term because it's not like jews fared well in christian land for centuries. where does it come from? it is a response by civic leaders in the 1930s to the anti-catholic, anti-semitic and anti-black kkk efforts of the 1920s. a group in 1928 form an organization called the ncc jacob the national conference of christians and jews where they say we can't have a kkk nation that is excluding the contribution of catholics and jews, and that is discriminating so violently against them. they not only create a whole set of civic efforts across the country. they also invent the term called judeo-christian nation that has become so part of the national dna that we forget that it wasn't that. so clearly part of what i'm doing in this book is saying at the time of really ugly islamophobia, there's actually in my american optimism present us with an opportunity. does t

like elvis is rock christian rock also moves into more extreme genres such as christian metal. it's now the turn of rock'n'roll to be desecrated by religion which starts using the gloomy magic of heavy metal in spite of its rehabilitation of an old demonic chord from the middle ages the tri tone. the trying to own is a musical interval spanning three whole tones which in classical music was the symbol of the devil that causation was the same boldest when it sounded as many it meant that the demon was coming for instance on stage to do so and heavy metal like that sound for the same reasons it's get out to the can. in the middle ages playing that chord in that church would condemn you to the fires of hell. because the false state is he she is either i mean i'm cold you see all this very melancholy form of harmony frighten people but music itself is never diabolic. sculpts convinced that metal rock has nothing demonic ministers somewhere who as chosen to make it ala turned to call music he founded the metal church which mixes my. mass and concert metal church this is metal church

i think protestant christianity is 80% may be and catholic christianity is 10%, 20% or so. what do you make of this phenomenon? >> i think the chinese are always seeking spirituality. and moral support in the family. and also, because christ's message is very attractive to the culture itself. people are really open to the great message that jesus brings to each of us. especially nowadays. people are materially satisfied but they have a deeper longing in their spiritual life. in their heart, and we are at this next step. where can they find meaning? people want to no what is the next step. that is why a great majority of chinese people, especially young people in college, are very interested in seeking spiritual nourishment. >> it must be that hunger which doesn't die and i think you are right. i am not sure that we in the west appreciate how rapid the growth of the chinese economy has been. we hear about it a lot but truly, a huge middle-class and more and more people who are not in poverty. people who as you say have enough material things but want to no more. -- know more

so hitler was forthrightly in private dismissing christianity, there's a lot of evidence for this. in good-les dier, and him her's die -- diaries -- some people smith the table talks. he inning ling translation no not reliable and that hasp been on the be the case. we have german editions and that's what i repylon. >> what their table talks? >> times when hitler was -- during world war ii, was in his bunker or in other places where he was headquarterses were where we had mon ologs he gave to generals and other of his onentourage that were around and these were recorded be secretaries and now they're published. the english translations are base bind perhaps fraudulent -- not sure -- set of documents so they're not reliable and i don't use those, but the german wants are pretty reliable and there's two editions and if you compare them, which i have, they compare pretty closely word for word in many places. but again you don't have to rely just on those, goerbles kept dies and rosenberg captain diorism used his diary because they were stolen after world war ii. so there's a lot of evi

maybe and catholic christianity is 10%, 20% or so. what do you make of this phenomenon? >> i think the chinese always are seeking spirituality and moral support in the family as a people. also, because christ's message is very attractive to the culture itself. it people are really open to that great message that jesus brings to each of us. especially nowadays when people are materially satisfied. they have a deeper longing in the spiritual life in their heart. we are the where they can find meaning, when probably they were more focused on trying to survive and work for material goods. but now, people have that already. what is the next step? that is why the vast majority of chinese people, especially young people, they are in college and are very interested in seeking spiritual nourishment. >> there must be that hunger which doesn't die and i think you are right, i'm not sure that we in the west appreciate how rapid the growth of the chinese economy has been, we hear about it but truly more and more middle-class, more people not in po

the president went first here, christiane.said, "my brother fred jr. died of alcoholism at the age of 42," and he will say -- he said it again recently. i think the pool spray was there -- press pool was there. he said, "my brother was so handsome. he was so smart. he was the oldest, and it just ruined -- you know, ruined his life and eventually took his life." so, he went first in sharing his story. here at the white house, we have a website, and it's share your story, crisisnextdoor.gov, because we want everybody to know the stigma and the silence that attends to addiction in any form, but, particularly, opioid and drug addiction, needs to be blown away, that people feel like they can come to somebody in their circle of life and share that story. i have experience with the me too movement. long before there was a me too movement, i was put upon, i was victimized, but nobody cares because i work for president trump. >> no, people care. >> oh, i don't know. i said it -- i said after the -- >> what happened to you? >> it doesn'

i want to comment on something that was said about judeo-christian. i built a mosque in bloomfield hills. that was before 9/11. the title of the mosque of the properties they were non- gender john teles, non- gentiles or people of color can build on that property in a mosque stance on it today. that's a huge improvement. however things have gotten worse since 9/11. immediately after they were better but more recently not. so how do you think this religious pluralism which includes the muslim will continue the letter was scored annoyed today? how do you change the trump diehard when you have hundreds of thousands and millions being spent on islamic phobia. all you need to do is read the report, fear inc. and then social media, we live in a difficult time as a muslim. i work every day. i find the neighbors are good, however when the president says islam hates america, how do we counter that? sue mcnamara take maybe two more questions and then who else has questions. >> might be a two-part question. we mentioned examples of different faiths coming togeth

so there is -- a public pronouncement, there were times which he did claim to be a christian. if you look at his private statements though, that wasn't the case. let me give an example. hitler with his right hand men were in prison in 1923 to 24 for their involvement of the. some of the inmates had a conversation about his religion. hitler talks to them and said i have to play a religious hypocrite because of the, not alienate them. hitler was forthrightly in private, dismissing christiani christianity. there is evidence of this. hitler's diaries, some people dismiss the table talk. the english translation is not reliable. that has been shown to be the case. we have a german addition, that's what i relay on. the table talks were times when hitler was, during world war ii was in his bunker or other places where he would be in his headquarters where he had monologues that he gave to generals and others of his entourage that were around him. these were recorded by his secretaries and then later, now we have been published. the english translations are based on a perhaps fraudulen

the previous guidelines also stated that christianity is part of the new sculptural heritage what is surprising is that they really stress it one more time because after my program closed down one religious program after the other has been shut down because chris and it's he and religion in general has not been prioritized with the immigration that the europeans and also the author of the danes has a problem to define their own identity if a culture is very based on its christian foundations and its christian faith it's much easier for this society to integrate other people so i think that's why they want to stress it simply to strengthen the national identity which is very important in our time where there is so much division in the european societies. one polar stimmung has been killed on at least three hundred more injured in the latest on wrist on these really gals a border rallies organized by islamist militant group hamas have been taking place every friday since march allied with an ever bigger it's really military presence to the girls a based journalist who could dory brings

when i was at school, it was christianity, thatis was at school, it was christianity, that is what youisjust the next evolution. i think so. what stu d e nts the next evolution. i think so. what students in my school will talk about is that it is the subject where they get to examine what is going on in the world, a real subject where they learn about what they hear in the news and they learn about the community and society they are going into and they appreciate the complexity that we bring into the complexity that we bring into the subject so it isn't about ticking a box and saying we have done this religion or that religion. we wa nt done this religion or that religion. we want them to understand the diverse nature of religion and different worldviews, so as they become adults and go into the world, they can make sense of it for themselves. it is a fascinating subject. it is history, and you think students are concerned they will be lectured about god when they go intoa will be lectured about god when they go into a lesson? it is exploring attitudes to life, exploring how we live to
