Beyond bias: 3 strikes on the New York Times

Parents: peace is not the absence of conflict
While it isn’t always possible to be free of conflict, we can show our children how peace can still be had.
Has bioluminescence evolved 40-50 times?
Bioluminescence is the light that comes from living things, and it can be found in creatures as diverse as spiders, fish, fireflies, squid, and even mushrooms. This is a problem for evolution, where common traits are often presented as evidence of common descent – creatures who share a trait are thought to have descended from a common ancestor, maybe millions of years ago, who first had that trait. But no one thinks mushrooms and squids had a common glowing ancestor. So does that mean bioluminescence evolved many times over? That would be remarkable!
Meanwhile, creationists see common traits as indicators of a common Designer who knows what works, and thus uses these traits repeatedly.
Is Social Justice just?
In this book review, Denny Burk shares how social justice practitioners have:
“…left behind a liberal ideal of justice for the illiberal ideal of retributive and distributive justice. Retributive justice involves punitive social action against historically privileged groups while distributive justice requires redistribution of goods and capital to historically oppressed groups.”
In contrast to this group-focused social justice, Christian justice involves treating people not as groups, but individually, without partiality for rich or poor, black or white, man or woman, etc (Lev. 19:15, Deut. 1:16-17, Gal. 3:28).
