I love searching around on the internet for other folks like me who blog about politics, philosophy, and religion. It makes me feel good that I'm not the only one who's blogging about it, and also, I think it's a good idea to find contrary opinions so that my orthodoxy doesn't become narrow or uninformed.

That said, today I want to point you toward four of my blogging peers. I read each post that these guys write and I truly believe that each of the, add really great words to the conversation surrounding the intersection of philosophy, politics, and religion. Go check them out, subscribe, and enjoy!

Micah Tillman: http://micahtillman.com
Micah Tillman is a Lecturer in the School of Philosophy at the Catholic University of America and I recently found his blog when I did a google search for philosophy, politics, and religion. He's got a lot of really great posts, usually leaning toward religion more than politics and philosophy. I really enjoy reading his blog because he usually brings up points that I've thought of in the past, but articulates them better than I.

Richard Dahlstrom:

Richard Dahlstrom is the pastor of Bethany Community Church in Seattle, WA where I attended while we lived there. He is smart, funny, and provocative. I absolutely LOVE sitting under his teaching and reading his ideas in print. I find that I disagree with him often on matters of philosophy and politics, but we agree almost 100% on religious matters and, in fact, he's causing me to rethink a lot of the praxis of my beliefs.

William Bradley: http://ethicalexhibitionist.blogspot.com/
William Bradley, the self-proclaimed Ethical Exhibitionist, teaches at an unknown Florida college and blogs prolifically about ethics, politics, philosophy, and writing. I began reading his blog during the election. He is an ardent Obama fan and it kept me grounded in the reality that there are those who are passionate about the same things- yet end up with different belief systems.

Christopher Cocca: http://christophercocca.wordpress.com/
Chris and I were elementary school and middle school chums. We've stayed in contact through the years and recently I've begun reading his blog religiously. He's a brilliant writer, he's got a lot of stellar ideas about the role of the church, the politics of Jesus, and the practical applications of Christian Philosophy. He's probably going to be the next Ernest Hemingway because, let's face it, his poetry and short stories are worth reading over and over again.
