Theology That Bites Back
Paula Misses the Point: Regarding your snotty article that strangely still seems all too ready to shame people for rightly being horrified and indignant about the sexual sin and predation in the church . . . Steven Sitler. Maybe sackcloth and ashes would suit you better. Paula Paula, the point being made there was not …
Introduction: A couple years ago, I wrote a post entitled The 9 Pitfalls of Homeschooling. At that time, in a fine display of even-handedness, I promised that there would be a follow up post outlining the pitfalls of Christian schools. I said: “Please allow me to say that there will be a follow-up and parallel …
You Say You Want a Revolution I apologize that this comment is somewhat removed from the article to which it is attached, but I have been considering a related question since Cuomo signed this atrocity. You may recall that toward the end of Lewis’ Perelandra, Ransom comes to the revelation that his possessed enemy, Weston, …
Introduction: We have now stumbled into our third in a series of four lectures, I trust somewhat happily.

Trump, Pence and Compromise I think the part about Obama not having any sex scandals was intended to convey that whatever your disagreements with him on abortion and gay marriage, there’s never been any suggestion that Obama is personally anything other than a faithful, loving husband and father, unlike the current occupant of the White …
Introduction: Some might wonder why I am not writing about Martin Luther King today. It is actually one of my initial forays into intersectionality. I do need to grant at the outset that Karen Pence has done a great deal to bring on the enmity that is currently being aimed at her. After all, she …
Introduction: Gillette has decided to join the ranks of all the wokescold corporations, and they did this by rolling out an ad campaign admonishing men to do better. Be better. C’mon, guys. And a few days before that, the American Psychological Association determined that traditional masculinity, on the whole, was a net minus, and that …
Emeth and All: I once listened to a liberal preacher from a liberal denomination expound on John 14:6 and point to the “conclusion” that we cannot say Jesus meant belief involving conscious awareness is required to come to the Father through Him.
