Vulnerability Isn’t A Virtue
You’re a big fan of vulnerability, huh? I’m going to guess that you used to be a ‘Christian’ but you left the church because it was full of bigots. I’ll bet you repeatedly opened your heart and those church folks judged you. They made you feel guilty and shameful. They made you feel unsafe. Right? […]
God Feeds Birds and Poor People
You’ve doubtless been unable to sleep wondering about the results of my experiment so I won’t keep you in suspense any longer! I asked for an interpretation of Psalm 145:15 (and 16 for you sticklers) which says: The eyes of all look to you, and you give them their food in due season. You open […]
Who Will Give Me What I Deserve?
Somebody said, “There’s not a single thing you need to do to deserve food. You deserve food because you are an alive person.” This was great news because it was lunchtime and I was hungry so I asked, “Where do I pick up my much deserved food?” I received LOTS of answers. Below are responses […]
Impurity Culture Is Worse
The ‘Shiny Happy People’ documentary on Netflix (which I haven’t seen because I don’t subscribe to Netflix) is helping quite a few Christian people escape the shame they felt for nursing bitter grudges against fellow Christ followers. Dozens of alleged Bible believers are climbing onto their social media platforms to tell the world that they […]
Addiction To Flattery Will Cost You
Your addiction to flattery will cost you a lot. An insatiable hunger for affirmation puts you on an endless quest for compliments. You’ll take approval from anyone who gives it and diabolical people will happily profit from your emotional weakness. “John, you jerk!! Everyone needs encouragement!!! That is NOT EMOTIONAL WEAKNESS!!!” Flattery is not encouragement. […]
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 […]
