My latest spate of links reminded me that I have been remiss in linking to the blogs of fellow Christians to whom I have been meaning to link for many weeks now, which task I have been putting off for some distraction or another. The omission has been rectified, with the addition of presbytermark, barlowfarms, […]
An Afghan-American speaks, showing us the real situation of Taliban-ruled Afghanistan: “starved, exhausted, damaged, and incapacitated.” New bombs would only stir the rubble of earlier bombs. Would they at least get the Taliban? Not likely. In today’s Afghanistan, only the Taliban eat, only they have the means to move around. They’d slip away and hide. […]
Is World War III just around the corner? It’s hard to tell right now, but the fact that all born-again Christians haven’t disappeared from the face of the earth yet can mean only one of two things: (1) this isn’t it just yet, or (2) the “Left Behind” Rapture pretribulationists are wrong. (So go hoot […]
Oh my God, what a disastrous day it has been on the opposite end of the world. I have just watched, on TV, the unthinkably catastrophic scene of two hijacked passenger airliners crashing into the World Trade Center, utterly destroying both towers. In Washington DC, and possibly elsewhere, similar attacks have occurred or are occurring. […]
Before I retire for the night, I wish to address a small techie pet peeve: the difference between a BLOGGER, and a BLOG. I’ve seen a few people saying on discussion boards, “Oh, I have a blogger on my website,” and that’s terminologically incorrect! The webpage is the blog (or weblog), and the person updating […]
Those of you who’ve met me in real life have probably noticed that, because of poor childhood posture, I stand with a severe stoop, shoulders hunched and head pushed forward like a vulture’s. Continued slouching can lead to a condition called Dowager’s Hump, so I’m now taking measures to correct my slouch, with these exercises […]
I don’t have much time to blog lately. Lots of work, lots to do. Yesterday was a long, eventful Friday. Lunch was spent with ******* and Ada from PEX, the three of us talking about the nitty-gritties of witnessing and testimony. A few tough questions were answered, and some interesting insights reaffirmed over a yummy […]
Just returned from watching Planet of the Apes, and I was disappointed at being left hanging with a blatant segue-to-sequel ending, without sufficient background to explain why, if Earth has suddenly been overrun by apes, their civilization’s monuments so closely resemble our own. And it’ll take a rather large leap of plot logic to get […]
Inevitably, there will be skeptics who will point out a connection between the Kaycee-Nicole affair and evangelical Christianity’s belief in a Savior whose existence and deity are derived from the text of Scripture. “See,” goes the online skeptic’s sentiment. “Kaycee touched us with her stories and her love, but in the end, even though our […]
I had lunch with Tiff in her office today. Only two out of four elevators were working, each with an impenetrable crowd of people already gathered around the doors. So, I went and took the stairs. Right up to the 23rd floor at a run. Oog. This doesn’t refer to me: Paulo Loves Eva. I […]
