Time for another post wherein Tim Barnett (Mr. B) of Red Pen Logic (RPL) responds to some atheist/ skeptic/progressive’s claims about some point of contention, usually socio-political and/or theological/philosophical in nature. Reflecting a conservative Christian approach, Barnett uses facts and reason — and certainly a better understanding of Scripture — to boldly yet irenically explain […]
“We’re in the eye of the hurricane. But the storm is passing, and it’s going to be very advantageous for the United States in the next decade.” — Victor Davis Hanson I read an interesting commentary — broadcast transcript, actually — by Victor Davis Hanson the other day.

(It was a follow-up to earlier posts in which I shared vignettes from Parts 4 & 5 in the series.) In this post, Greg Koukl clearly addresses another question (from Part 1) often posed […]
“A Michigan flip here almost guarantees the GOP will retain control of the Senate.” — Matt Vespa, Towhhall This past Tuesday, Progressive candidate Abdul El-Sayed got roughly 1% of the vote more than centrist Democrat Rep. Haley Stevens, thereby securing the Democrat nomination for Michigan’s Senate seat. He will go on to face Republican Rep. […]

He has held positions at the National Bureau of Economic Research, the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research, the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies, and the Standford […]
I figured I was “due” to share something involving Christian theology or apologetics this week, but I didn’t have anything in the works and was growing short on time.
