Great debate/ must see tv
It’s great because it’s civil while having two strong opponents. Prof. Lennox is as seasoned as they come; a great mind using and following the trails of logic. Usually in these talks, there are massive insults hurled ala Hitchens, who … Continue reading

A filthy word
I am starting to despise the word ‘science.’ Actually, I have loathed it for years, ever since the high priests such as Degrasse and Nye, Harris, etc, all have hijacked it, the same way the word ‘rainbow’ has been profaned … Continue reading

Why Paul? Why not you?
A topic/question deserving more attention than a passing comment elsewhere: Why did the apostle Paul receive an invitation so unusual to see the risen Lord? A common complaint shared by they who say ‘there is no God,’ or that the … Continue reading
Sober thought for the day
Hospitals are filling space with masked patients who….wait for it: are having problems accelerated by the inability to breathe fresh air, and are inhaling their own toxic poisons. Fact. The govts of the world have aided and abetted the present … Continue reading

I predict….
No Tkx needed in advance/ nor does it take a genius to cite the obvious- even though it did not yet occur. When President Harris and Biden are sworn in…. there will be a gush the likes that you have … Continue reading

Who dares to challenge the goodness of God?
Beauty and goodness comes in many flavors. Here is a song that should make believers happy, and while it may even excite the auditory canals of the atheist, a greater question should be asked: Why does something please me that … Continue reading

Love this burial
Don’t you so tire of hearing the age old charge that Christianity is the root of hatred and ‘death to the Jews?’ I do. I believe that narrow minds are responsible for the perpetuating of such an idea. Not that … Continue reading
Thanks a bundle
During December, people across the world generally heap upon others good words of cheer and simple good will; to every thing there is a season I suppose, so I too would like to join all comrades far and wide, and … Continue reading
The Dagger that slices
Here is a thought that will surely rattle the cages of the so-called intellectual who pretends to know more than God. Yeah, there’s an idea, mere mortals ‘knowing’ more than God. Anyway: The study of scripture is the most demanding … Continue reading
Cold and scattering
(Cold) Other than the obvious conclusion that a sober mind must make when considering creation, that God has the copyrights alone to His handiwork, that is, that the property of rocks, water, (including oceans, lakes, rivers, streams, clouds) minerals, leather, … Continue reading
The math of God
I am so glad God is absolute, that He can be relied upon, that His precisions are firm, steadfast, sure, resolute, and predictable. After all, He created the exact SCIENCE of arithmetic doncha know. Time which is measured by seconds, … Continue reading
Watch this
I enjoy the concept of time, the monitoring of the minutes, hours, days, months, years, decades, millenia, and who cannot appreciate the mildest expression of this through a simple wristwatch. Oops. did I say simple? All those pieces, the intertwining … Continue reading

THE most dangerous man…
(This is a copied post from 2014, with a few additions to make it current) A casual poll was taken recently at a lecture regarding ‘THE most dangerous man’ of our times. Suggestions were asked for and the usual suspects made the … Continue reading

Now that’s a croc
Was watching a nature doc on the world’s most dangerous animals, specifically of the Asian variety. Monkeys, scorpions, tigers, elephants, pan bears, honey badgers, mosquitoes, cobras, and many more were all represented as just plain all around bad news- especially … Continue reading
