Let’s call this a discussion on the meaning of life. My friend and debating partner led to this discussion with his skeptical questions regarding my biblical worldview. He also outlined his own value system, one that relies neither on God nor Marx, today’s favorite philosopher. Standards I cannot alter God’s standard to suit myself. It stands aboveContinue reading “The Search for Meaning: 1989 vs 2024”

The Poison Ivy League
How far must we go down the rabbit hole of depravity before sleeping Americans cry uncle? Three college presidents testified to Congress this week, and yet again I shook my head at the spectacle. Actually, it was more than a head shaker; it was disgusting. When will this insanity end? I never expect push backContinue reading “The Poison Ivy League”
Ignoring the Evil of Nashville
In my last post, I asked why one-channel media ignored the crime and the manifesto of the Nashville shooter, a member of an “oppressed” group, and failed to blame the usual suspects (guns, Christians, conservatives). A friend of mine called me paranoid: There seems to be a bit of paranoia with your statement. How wouldContinue reading “Ignoring the Evil of Nashville”
The Nashville Shooter’s Manifesto Exposed
Eight months ago, a Nashville shooter killed six in a shooting spree in a Tennessee Christian school. guns-and-transgenderism-it-is-all-about-the-narrative. The shooter was transgender and the targets were Christians, a narrative difficult to spin.

Of Climate Change, Trump, and the Nature of Debate
True debate leads to discovery and truth, but that debate has been re-defined, basically bastardized, by those who don’t understand its true nature (as nearly everything today has been bastardized). I focus on political debate today. If you want your guy to win the next election in this Alice-in-wonderland environment, please understand the new tactics.Continue reading “Of Climate Change, Trump, and the Nature of Debate”
How Many More Wars?
A month into the latest Israeli/Palestinian conflict, a majority of Americans still support Israel’s actions. Nevertheless, a significant percentage of Americans are leery of any further Israeli retaliation; the impact of the media, the UN, dishonest politicians, and clueless academics are taking a toll. This shouldn’t be so hard. Without a consistent worldview, people struggleContinue reading “How Many More Wars?”
The (Essential) Church was Made for Moments Like These
“The church was made for moments like these,” Pastor John McArthur’s said referring to the chaos surrounding the COVID pandemic (from the movie “The Essential Church”). The Church is definitely needed during such crises: to tend to the sick, to support those who have lost loved ones, to provide hope, to reach out to thoseContinue reading “The (Essential) Church was Made for Moments Like These”

War in the Middle East: Who is Actually Spreading Misinformation?
In January 1968, the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese Army launched a massive surprise attack which overwhelmed the superior American forces in Vietnam. An American counter offensive immediately pushed them out of their temporary gains and inflicted considerable harm on their forces. The Tet Offensive did not end the war and the South VietnameseContinue reading “War in the Middle East: Who is Actually Spreading Misinformation?”
Tell Me Again: Why Should the Border be Open?
Earlier this year, Comedian Louis C.K. told Joe Rogan the border should be open because “It shouldn’t be so great here in America.” https://www.foxnews.com/media/louis-ck-calls-open-borders-end-global-inequality-shouldnt-great-here-america “My feeling is they should open it-the border, let everybody pour in, and then the answer which is ‘well then there will be all these problems.’ Yes, there should be,” heContinue reading “Tell Me Again: Why Should the Border be Open?”
