Over the past decade the word âfearâ has become all too familiar. After 9/11 critics of the war on terror called it fear-mongering. After the financial crash of 2008, living in a climate of fear became the lot of millions of people who lost their jobs, retirement accounts, and homes. But what about the most basic fear, which undermines society itself, the...

Every senseless, horrific act of violence brings up the question of good versus evil, and when you read that children have died by violence - a common thread linking the Newtown shootings and the Boston Marathon bombing - there's even more reason to shudder and doubt. Â In fearful times maintaining the most minimal idea of "God is good" becomes harder. Â If it is blasphemy for believers to think God isn't good, it betrays humanity to let God get away with turning his back while innocents die in...

One of modern science's great strengths is that any questionable finding dies a quick death if it's invalid. The safeguards are mainly two: Your new finding must be repeatable when other researchers run the same experiments, and peer review by qualified scientists subjects every new finding to microscopic scrutiny. So it surprised the millions of admirers of TED,...
Every country has a national character that it taught to children from a young age and then becomes part of everyone's story. In the case of America, "opportunity" is a theme known worldwide and constantly referred to when we talk about what this country means. In the same category are freedom, power, innovation - and decency. We look upon ourselves as the good guys, and we expect to be seen that way by others.
Analysts warn us that American opportunity is flagging, especially if you are poor...

When they think of India, many people still have the shining image of it as a rising economy, one of the four most promising in the world, in fact. As one of the BRIC countries, along with Russia, Brazil and China, India's rise from a long history of poverty raised hope for the rest of the developing world. So it's startling when Fareed Zakaria recently asked on CNN, "Is...
