What Do You Mean By Lost?
When I think of someone who is ‘lost,’ I picture a child, alone in the woods who desperately needs to be shown the way out of the trees. My understanding of ‘lost people’ affected the way I read Jesus words in Luke 19, “For the Son of Man came to seek and save what was […]
The Fallacies Are Strong…
When I said that beliefs taught to me by my culture aren’t necessarily wrong, you helpfully offered, “It doesn’t mean they’re right either!” Of course, you’re correct and you should absolutely make your bold assertion whenever somebody foolishly proclaims, “I’m right because I was taught to think this way!” Fools are fond of saying stuff […]
May God Keep Us From Foolishness
(Proverbs 3:31) Do not envy a violent man or choose any of his ways, for the Lord detests a perverse man but takes the upright into his confidence. May God grant comfort and peace to everyone in Nashville who lost loved ones. God understands loss. He knows how to deal with suffering. May His grace […]
Love Over Verses Is Incoherent
An easy way to sell merchandise to simpletons is to use the word, “Love.” It doesn’t matter how you use it. Just stick that word somewhere on whatever you’re trying to sell and it turns your garbage into artwork for dummies. For example, you can use the phrase, “Love Over Verses” to sell T-shirts to […]
The Group Doesn’t Speak For Me
For the record, I’m not a Republican, Conservative, Libertarian, Liberal, Democrat, Progressive, or MAGA Trump Supporter. The reason I don’t wear any of those labels is because many Republicans, Conservatives, Libertarians, Liberals, Democrats, Progressives, and MAGA Trump Supporters are depraved lunatics and I don’t share their views. Do you understand? That means, for the record, […]
Accept Every Wretched Being
Christians: Below is a helpful test you can run on memes like this one to figure out if you should throw it away. Secularists, just go ahead and click the laughing emoji right now. Whenever a godless suppressor of truth suggests that acceptance, compassion, and respect should be extended to a specific group of people, […]
Yeah, Sin Is Humiliating.
We’ve spent decades trying to make the church into a supportive community where everyone belongs, even the people who don’t want to be in the community. Our dogged determination to ‘hate the sin but love the sinner,’ is enormously popular with both sinners and saints because it effectively pushes one of Christianity’s hardest teachings right […]
Agnostics Are Leprechauns
I assume God exists. Self labeled atheists and agnostics laugh at such religious presuppositions. The god-haters chortle, “Hahaha! Your religious bias disqualifies you from serious conversations. Keep your superstitious assumptions to yourself! The public conversation must be separate from religion.” In other words, they assume God doesn’t exist. I know! I know! I can hear […]
Support Is Soooo Easy
Years ago, supporting someone required effort. Not anymore! I can take credit for being a ‘supportive ally’ by just posting stuff on social media. I can bask in lavish applause without taking a risk, breaking a sweat, or spending a dime. Hero status is available for nothing. So…get ready to praise my greatness! I support […]
Ignorance Begets Confidence
A quote from the man who still holds major influence in the scientific community despite his staggering scientific ignorance. Way back when Chuck Darwin was writing all his scientific insights, the consensus among the biological experts was that life could spontaneously generate from non-life. It was accepted science that life just appeared, like magic. I’m […]
