[H/T MOHIB EBRAHIM] -- FAITHWIRE.COM -- For devout Catholic Mark Wahlberg, "Father Stu" seems to mark the start of a new chapter in his life, one less focused on worldly success and more on leaving a legacy of faith. Wahlberg was struck by Stuart Long's story and credits God as the reason it translated so well into a movie. The film touches on a host of issues, from finding purpose in suffering and trusting God with the unknown to practicing humility and leaving space for redemption -- a neglected practice in today's culture which Wahlberg believes could benefit from more grace and forgiveness. Wahlberg said part of why cancel culture is so toxic is it causes people to "lose hope and have no faith. People are so quick to turn their backs ...

GOOGLE.COM -- It is customary for a new magazine to publish its policy. Let us then put down today, in a few words, our aims and objects. The great reformer poet of the Indo-Pakistan continent, the late Maulana Hali, once said: "Let the reformers remember this, if they wish to remove a blot from the cloth they are welcome to wash it, but let them not rub and rub the cloth so much that at the end they destroy the fabric itself". The policy, therefore, will be to only publish constructive suggestions and criticisms. We also invite the writers to criticize US and tell us what they like about the Ismailia Association [now ITREB] and what they do not. Next, the major part of this magazine will be devoted to the promotion of research. Another serious aspect is ...

BROWNSTONE.ORG -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: Hazar Imam, 1987: "Professional standards and assumptions can provide a form of intolerance, pride and myopia as intractable as the rigidities of traditional societies."] ARTICLE: Once upon a time, a man could brandish his doubt in public with a certain degree of dignity and honor. Being unsure was a mark of an inquiring mind, open to fresh evidence and new horizons. But, in this modern era, there is little room for old fashioned doubt and skepticism. In this Age of Certainty, of 140-character zingers and bumper-sticker morality, silence isn't a sign of humility: silence is violence. So, to keep pace with the flood of subjects, the modern man turns to the "Expert Class" for blind guidance. And blind guidance is what he gets. Indeed, on the Grand Subjects, these lodestars of knowledge are rarely in doubt and as confident as they are myopic. The experts are ...
