Peter Hitchens’ next chapter was profound and moving. Entitled “Britain’s Pseudo-Religion and the Cult of Winston Churchill,” he makes the brave move of identifying the carnage of the two great wars of the 20th century as a massive blood sacrifice to false gods. He does this on the basis of the meaning that was assigned …
Today Show, NatGeo, and Netflix
Busy, busy. And Collision is now availabwoool, as they say, on Netflix. This film is not rated, but no animals were harmed in the making of it. Except for our dinners.
Opportunity in Moscow
Over the years, we have had the good fortune to have a number of people move here to Moscow for Logos, NSA or other reasons. But one of the challenges in a small community like ours is finding a significant business opportunity to facilitate a move to our community. With that in mind, I am …
That Parishioner on the Go
I heard somewhere that American football is shown in the UK (when it is shown) in an interesting way. They show all the plays being run, but eliminate the huddles and the standing around. This causes them to miss one aspect of the game, which is the fact that football games are actually, as one …
No Profit
“At thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (Ps. 16: 11) Food and Drink #9 “Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein” (Heb. 13:9). The author …
Utter Irrelevance
Here is Bruce Waltke, on why Christians should believe in evolution. HT: Joe Rigney. There are (at least) five confusions here. First, he wants to say that if we believe that the Lord is the Giver and Creator of all life, and we do so in a way that is not approved by our secularist …
Tattered Magnificence
Peter’ next chapter is a brief one, and I will be even more brief. It is more explicitly autobiographical, and concerns the tattered magnificence of an England that was clearly visible when Peter was a boy, and which is now almost entirely gone. It is important to note that this chapter is not Peter giving …
A Pointy Hat With Stars and Crescent Moons
In his next chapter, Peter Hitchens writes about the Christian education he received, and the reasons it didn’t “take.” The main reason is that the Christianity, what there was of it, was on autopilot. He learned the same content his fathers had learned, including the missionary journeys of Paul, but what was taught to him …
Same Old Content
I am pleased to mention the re-release of Angels in the Architecture, newly re-typeset, with a new cover, and with the same old subversive content. For those who want to learn about the basics of Christian cultural engagement, this book enables you to progress without becoming progressive, and to be the kind of conservative who …
And Then the Darkness Falls
I am pleased to introduce the extended trailer for the The Rage Against God to you. There are some potent moments in here. Fine work by Gorilla Poet Productions.
