Believe All Sinister People
Just a quick reminder that when sinister people tell you their sinister plans, you should believe them. For instance, when LGBTQ people congregate in public and chant, “We’re coming for your children!” it is wise to assume they are coming for your children. This isn’t even a little bit surprising. Anyone with more common sense […]
Technology To Get Rid of Technology
Michael Knowles posted a statistic that claimed 77% of middle-aged (34-54 years old) Americans want to return to a time before society was always “plugged-in.” They would like to go back to the time before cell phones were in our pockets and emails were constantly piling up in our inbox. Gosh! It would be great […]
Congrats. You won.
Mercifully, ‘Pride Month’ is now behind us for another year. I’d like to celebrate the end of that egregious holiday by posing a question which I expect to be answered with vitriolic personal attacks, off-topic memes, and deranged non-sequiturs. When is Team Pride going to declare victory? In America, members of the LGBTQ community are […]
Think Like A Billionaire
“John, you jerk! Why are you defending those selfish billionaires?!! They spent $250,000 to ride in a submarine!!!! That money could have helped a lot of poor people!!!!” Before we tear into those selfish billionaires for the way they spend their money, let’s crunch some numbers. A little perspective might help you be more content […]
Every Religion Should Not Get A Fair Share
Somebody recently said these words to me: “You can’t have it both ways, and if you do want Christianity in schools, you’d have to be okay with every other religion getting its fair and equal share, too.” This would be a strong, compelling argument if it wasn’t utterly absurd. Don’t believe me? Let’s apply the logic […]
Thank God for Good Groomers
A godless rebel told me that I had been ‘groomed’ by the church and I want to admit that’s right. When I was a child, my parents often placed me among adults who indoctrinated me with their beliefs. I didn’t ask for this. It was done to me against my will. Without my consent, the […]
I’ll Impose My Religion On You If You Insist
I’ve never thought the Great Commission was an order to force, coerce, manipulate, oppress, intimidate or otherwise impose Christianity on people who prefer eternal darkness to eternal life with God. “John, you jerk! Then why did you say the Great Commission was Jesus telling us to IMPOSE OUR RELIGION?!!!” I’m just using the language of […]
Avoiding Evil Is On Point For Christians
“People going from “love your neighbor as yourself” to “boycott rainbow t-shirts,” is the greatest case of mission drift in the history of the planet.” – John Pavlovitz Actually, JP, a greater example of mission drift is using “love your neighbor as yourself” to vilify your neighbors for following their consciences. It is not love […]
Divorce Ain’t Lightning
Quick reminder to my friends posting about their divorce(s) that getting hit by lightning is different from getting divorced. You talk about your divorce(s) like it’s something totally outside your control. To hear you describe it, broken marriage flashed down from the sky without warning. You were living life, loving generously, selflessly pouring into your […]
I’ll Answer My Own Question
During the month of June I have traditionally and repeatedly asked the Pride celebrants, “What are you proud about?” I have received many angry responses but so far, not a single answer. I’ve been told that asking about the specific reasons for this national celebration is bigoted, hateful and un-Christian. So I’m not going to […]
