The op-ed in the Washington Post entitled Five Myths About Jesus is simply this and nothing more: A blatant denial of the Biblical account. Here are the five “myths”: Jesus was not born in Bethlehem Jesus was an only child Jesus only had twelve disciples Jesus had a trial before Pilate Jesus was buried in […]

News reports are saying that President Obama has now decided to arm certain rebel groups in Syria in retaliation for the Assad regime’s use of chemical weapons in its civil war. I would say first that if either side has used chemical weapons it is morally reprehensible. There should be some sort of retribution, either […]

The New York Times published this fascinating article on the benefits of going to church. That’s right, the Times. This is an encouraging development for the people like me who have usually in the past virtually always took the opposite tack on things published in the Old Gray Lady. This article actually has a paragraph […]

I checked my calendar and discovered that Wednesday (actually Tuesday night immediately after sunset) was Yom Kippur. I started to not bring it up. But if I blog, I blog for God! As followers of Christ, we owe a tremendous debt to the Jewish people. Christianity came out of Judaism and we believe that Jesus […]

I doubt my position on gay marriage will push the Romney VP question out the news door this weekend BUT I felt it is time to speak out. Am I for gay marriage? Well, no and yes. I am for removing the word “marriage” from the state codes and replacing it with “civil union” and […]

I was more amused than offended by the “offer” made to find someone who has slept with Tim Tebow. Here’s the article and here’s the highlight reel for it: The problem is that the whole game is flawed. Let’s just go ahead and lead with the obvious: Christians are hypocrites.

Nickelodeon is a children and teen TV network that is blatantly into Obama-worship and environmental wackoism. Several weeks ago, at the Kid’s Choice Awards, the First Lady showed up and was also a recent star of the show on one of the most popular tween shows: iCarly. That would be fine except for the fact […]

When many think of a French Film Festival, thoughts of a steamy movie with an exotic, attractive young lady and a handsome young man come to mind. (And it better not stay there! Unholiness alert!) But the schedule of the Film Symposium and French Film Festival this year did have my idea of a steamy […]

I enjoyed the article by Michael Brown in Townhall, especially the part about Richard Dawkins. Dawkins: On the Origin of Species…Uh…With, oh, God, On the Origin of Species.

W. James Antle, III at the American Conservative has a intriguing article on what if the Tea Party turns anti-war. Antle features Rand Paul, the GOP candidate for the US Senate in Kentucky, and his clear non-interventionist position.

I used to get so much grief over my support of Cong. Paul from my own people: Fellow believers in Christ. They were against Paul’s foreign policy (they thought noininterventionism was isolationism and vaguely disloyal) and some thought he was not a consistent social conservative. Some also felt that Paul was against Israel and not […]
