War in the Middle East: Who is Actually Spreading Misinformation?

If Her Daddy’s Poor (and You’re a Liberal) Just Do What You Feel
Why do so many pretend what is politically expedient is the truth and most logical course of action? It’s a constant in politics, but still the thing I hate most about politics.

Are there new, exotic blends of COVID? Or is this another power play by sinister politicians? At this point, I see no evidenceContinue reading “COVID Panic Resurfaces, Something Related to the Election?”
Discussion: Can We Find God? Yes, of course, We can.
Recently, I wrote of a Maui church remarkably untouched by the awful “fire hurricane” (the term used by Hawaii’s Governor Josh Green). It seemed miraculous to me, but my interest was further sparked by skeptics who insisted nothing unusual had occurred. show-me-a-Hawaiian-miracle-and-I-will-believe The skeptics protective instinct is to invoke the term “science”, as if theContinue reading “Discussion: Can We Find God?
