Steve Jobs: The Secular Prophet (Andy Crouch, Wall Street Journal)
An interesting and important take on Jobs. He notes that the second incarnation of Jobs at Apple corresponded with the 911 era, and many of us rooted for Apple the way we rooted for sports teams - "Passion without consequence," as Rush puts it. But when we do, we are rooting for progress as a secular objective, and not a spiritual one. Jobs was a Buddhist, and not a Christian.

Jobs was a Buddhist, and not a Christian.

I pray that he became a Christian at last. I was praying for him up to the end.
