Getting to Know You

October 6, 2020

wo Fake Christians. There is no need to explain how Trump displays his complete disassociation with Christianity. We know him. However, Amy Coney Barrett is a new arrival on the scene for most Americans. Permit me to introduce this judicial nightmare. As Trump might say, she’s a doozy. It’s just not in the way he […]

The Trump era, uh Error

September 26, 2020

rump doesn’t care about Roe v. Wade. Trump doesn’t care the actual job of president. Trump doesn’t care about America. Trump just cares about the perks and prestige of the office — at least the prestige it used to have.

Mote in the Eye

July 30, 2019

rump’s favorite quotation from the Bible is Matthew (5:38-42) in the New Testament. All he takes from it is the phrase, “An eye for an eye.” Jesus repudiates even that notion. Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, […]

Accepting America

October 18, 2016

merica is in jeopardy. I survived the 8 years of a total incompetent W and his personal Rasputin. I considered becoming an expatriate but, though I had traveled the world for nearly 20 years, America is my home. Things have changed. We again have a total incompetent running for the presidency but this one is […]

Seth Rogan Is Right

July 5, 2014

eth called the Hobby Lobby people and those supporting them assholes. I would have been somewhat more nuanced than Seth. I see them as ignorant, pretentious assholes. The conservative “brain bust trust” on the Supreme Court of Wall Street will need to add several like-minded noggins to the mix to reach the double-digit range for […]

They Shoot People, Don’t They?

April 19, 2014

he patsies of the gun manufacturers, largely superposable with the members of the National Rifle Association (NRA), have substituted firearms for their genitalia and gun lobbyists’ cant for thinking. They consider their right to their manufactured machismo more important than the lives of tens of thousands of men, women and kindergarteners. They are too intellectually […]

Fake Ducks

December 23, 2013

f it quacks like Duck Dynasty, it must be hypocrisy. “Reality shows” are as realistic as Michael Jackson’s face was or Fox “News” is. That doesn’t diminish the devotion of their audiences of Americans that refuse to think. In fact, that’s the appeal.

What Is Marriage?

May 16, 2012

ell, it’s time to get back to work. I got out of the hospital yesterday. Now my illness is primarily from watching the news. I just saw a clergyman claim that god defined marriage for us. It may make him feel good to spout such nonsense, but it’s still nonsense. It amazes me that people […]

What Hath God Wrought?

October 27, 2008

Perhaps I should begin with an apology to Samuel Morse for using his famous quotation as the title of this post. I really can’t blame God for the yo-yo to the left. All of my copies of the Bible contain a short, simple, easily understood statement. It can be found at 1 John 4:8. it […]

Starting the Sacred & Secular Category

June 23, 2008

My mother intended for me to be a missionary. That didn’t quite work out the way she planned. The one year that I did study to become a missionary wasn’t a total loss. It helped propel my interest in religion. My primary take has always been: why don’t Christians behave at least a little as […]
