Some of you may remember that several years ago I put together “A Brief History of Memorial Day”. In that post, I discussed the calling for a national day “for the purpose of strewing with flowers, or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and […]
“Take every Christian definition you can think of. Then redefine it with a super spiritual metamystigorical definition. There. Now you have New Thought.” — Melissa Dougherty, Happy Lies I hadn’t originally planned on doing another post citing Dougherty’s book this week, but… that’s how it turned out. Funny thing is, this section actually comes from […]
“Nobody can ‘live their truth’ for long. Everyone knows this.” — Melissa Dougherty, Happy Lies I have addressed the issue of relativism in the past. But, it’s always good to have a reminder of the causes and consequences of this faulty mindset. The citation below comes from the new book, Happy Lies, by Melissa Dougherty. […]
I re-read Michael Denton’s Evolution: A Theory in Crisis (1986) recently. When he wrote the book, Denton, an agnostic, was an Australian medical doctor and scientist doing biological research in Sydney. It was one of my favorite books when I was reading a lot on the evolution/creation/ID “debate” back in the 2000s, and I wanted […]
Having already addressed the Genesis 6 issues in “My Take on the Sons of God and Nephilim in Genesis 6” and the awkwardness of Genesis 9 in “My Take on Noah’s Drunken Nakedness and the Sin of Ham in Genesis 9”, it’s now time I finally took a shot at this seemingly out-of-the blue attack […]
“Instead of fiction and fairy tales, archaeology indicates that the Bible preserves an accurate recounting of the history addressed in its pages.” — Titus Kennedy, writer, professor, and professional field archaeologist I bought a new book — Unearthing the Bible, by Dr. Titus Kennedy — that I’ll be reading through soon-ish. I was flipping through […]
“Indirects are just ways for wealthy academic hospitals to pocket money that their investigators won and then create slush for those who are incapable of getting funded on their own. It’s a huge grift and great place for cuts.” — David Whelan, a healthcare consultant and former healthcare writer for Forbes Last week, I wrote […]
“The world’s richest man took $190 million away from kids with cancer.” — MSNBC host Chris Hayes on X (referring to Elon Musk) Instead of ranting about Trump’s tariffs like everyone else this week, I decided to address something else… Lately, I have become aware of certain claims made by some Leftists and other anti-Trumpers, […]
“Until we know all the basic facts about that day, Americans will have no reason to be confident that justice has been served.” — John Daniel Davidson, Senior Editor at The Federalist The events that occurred on Capitol Hill on Jan. 6, 2021, and the question of who is to blame is a divisive and […]
One of the books I’ve been reading lately is Decision Making God’s Way by Gary T. Meadors. It has some good stuff in it and, as usual, I keep an eye out for sections that might make good articles in themselves. So, this week I have an excerpt that talks about, you guessed it, the […]
