Archbishop John Dew: Outrage over dirty tricks healthy
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/opinion/news/article.cfm?c_id=466&objectid=11319165
The Greek philosopher Aristotle referred to teaching and politics as
the "noble professions". There would still be general agreement among
most New Zealanders about the former, but less so about the latter,
particularly in the wake of the Dirty Politics revelations, and the
political debate that has swirled around them ...

The role faith plays in the lives of Taranaki people has changed
through the years. In 2013, more than 10,000
around the region chose not to identify with any religion at all. What
is being done around the region to turn this trend around and does it
even matter?

Teacher Joe Hughes was a physical education specialist and devised for
youngsters programmes that put them into competition not with others,
but with themselves. The class fat boy (or girl) never missed out – if
they put the effort in they, too, could be winners.

In less than a morning a building that had stood for over 90 years was
brought to the ground when the St Peter Chanel Catholic Church in Ward
was demolished on Friday.

Hard questions we're not asking Pope Francis
http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2014/09/02/hard-questions-were-not-asking-pope-francis/
Pope Francis is an undeniably attractive figure whose concern for
people at society's margins can be awesome to behold. As a result,
it's almost impossible sometimes not to go soft on the man. Yet
precisely because there's so much to like, Francis sometimes gets a
free pass on the sort of legitimate questions any other leader would
attract. At least four hard questions we should be asking more often
come to mind...
