Worry About Yourself
“Mom! He’s not doing what you told him to do!” When we were kids, my brother and I took turns tattling on each other. When my brother ratted me out it was because he didn’t understand that I was perfect. When I informed our mother of my brother’s wrong doing, it was because I had […]
Here’s A Useless Blessing
To you self described “non-religious” people who see no benefit to religious beliefs. To you who are ‘good without God,’ and evolved beyond the need for faith in a higher power. To you who ridicule religion as regressive superstitions. To my intellectual superiors who have rejected Christianity for a more enlightened worldview… Your ‘Holiday Greeting’ […]
Your Brain Is A Sandwich
Have you lived long enough to know everything? Some people have! I’ve met them. They use their own perfect wisdom to measure the truthfulness of my ideas. You may know a person who knows everything or perhaps you ARE such a person. People who know everything quickly identify themselves with the statement, “I’ve never heard […]
Don’t Tell Me Not To Research
Promise me that you’ll laugh and point at me if I ever suggest that ‘common sense’ is all you need in order to see that I’m right. Promise me! Appealing to ‘common sense’ is a lazy way to argue. It requires no communication skills. It requires no data. Ironically, it doesn’t even require any common […]
Go Ahead and Research
Promise me that you’ll laugh and point at me if I ever suggest that ‘common sense’ is all you need in order to see that I’m right. Promise me! Appealing to ‘common sense’ is a lazy way to argue.

Nothing Wrong With Being Right
I wrote a story for everyone who scolds me for needing to be right all the time. There was a girl with an enormous ego who was right about everything. It was her parents’ fault. From the moment she was born, they poisoned her young mind to value correctness. They punished her for telling lies. […]
Keep Praying for Kyle
More than 15 minutes ago somebody said that everyone gets 15 minutes of fame. When your moment of fame is over you need to get off the stage so someone else can have their 15 minutes in the spotlight. So, even though I’ll be called a ‘fascist’ and a ‘snowflake’ and a ‘hater of liberty’ […]
What You Get From Godlessness
Today, I am going to do what I’ve been told is impossible. I’m going to say something more offensive and stupid than my standard commentary. Many people have insisted that “everything I say” is unkind, offensive, thoughtless, and ignorant. If you’re a person who thinks I’ve already sunk to the lowest level achievable by a […]
You Are Not A Salmon
If you’re stuck in a horrible job at a horrible company controlled by horrible people who do horrible things, I have wonderful news! You are not a salmon. Salmon are programmed by God to live a horrible life. When mating season rolls around, Salmon swim thousands of miles to their place of birth. They swim […]
New Year Every Day
…Another reason I don’t like New Year’s resolutions is they overemphasize the importance of a ‘new year.’ The ritual makes it seem like a fresh start happens once every three hundred and sixty five days. According to scripture, we can get a fresh start anytime. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just […]
