		<description><![CDATA[He knew things he wasn&#8217;t allowed to talk about. Bound now by a law of silence he lived with the memory of being caught up into what he called &#8220;the third heaven&#8221; where he says he heard things that a man is not allowed to repeat.

Remember seeing an upscale Singapore condominium complex advertised as &#8220;Heaven on Earth&#8221;.

		<description><![CDATA[In the February 2 issue of Newsweek magazine&#8217;s &#8220;Beliefwatch&#8221;, Lisa Miller, writes, &#8220;You likely believe that when you die, you&#8217;re going to heaven. More than 80 percent of Americans do. 
But in what form? Are you &#8220;you&#8221;? If so, are you old or young, fat or thin? If not, what are you? An angel? A [...]]]></description>

In this Olympic and election year, I&#8217;ve been thinking again about the way competition surfaces in every area of our lives. It shows up not only in sports, but in education, business, and science. Media networks compete for ratings, religious groups for our minds and hearts, politicians for our votes, and companies for our money.

		<description><![CDATA[We endure application forms for credit cards, employment, life insurance, and driver&#8217;s licenses. We fill them out when applying for tax credits, college entrance, and passports. Sometimes they are required when applying for church membership.
So let&#8217;s push the idea of applications to another level. Think about what it might mean to fill out papers for [...]]]></description>
