Today this little blog o’ mine (I’m gonna let it shine!) passed a significant milestone. The January just passed was the first month where I averaged over 4,000 visitors a day. Great to have you all here.
All We Need to Know
I have been following the outbreak of hostilities in Israel and Lebanon, but thus far have refrained from writing about it. On one level the subject is enormously complex and anything less than ten volumes, researched for twenty years, would fail to do the situation any kind of justice. At the same time, on another …
Hospitality and Immigration
So the issue of the day is immigration. And our first reaction as Christians should always be “what does Scripture say about it?” A summary of biblical teaching is that immigration of a certain kind is a blessing, and is fruitful, both to the immigrant and the land to which he comes. Immigration of another …
Let My People Go
Six million African Muslims leave Islam every year. Check this out. The global violence of radical Islam is born, not of raw aggression, but of defensive and insecure panic. HT: David Field
Sali Forth
For those Idaho residents interested in the upcoming primary election, I would encourage you to check out Bill Sali’s web site here. Bill is an old friend, and it is good to see him out there giving liberals heartburn. Bill would be my nominee for “Least Likely to Go Native If He Makes It to …
Islam or Death?
An Afghan man, Abdul Rahman, is on trial in Afghanistan for converting to Christianity. He faces the death penalty for leaving Islam, and you can read about his plight here. Contact your congressman about it. Whatever our views on the war generally, we sure don’t want our troops there supporting a government that would allow …
Evolution Sunday
A nice little send-up of Evolution Sunday, which just passed apparently, and which is not a joke, although it is a joke, as this send-up illustrates, and the apostle Paul used run-on sentences also, in Scripture, can be found here.
South Dakota and Pro Life Incrementalism
Many political observers, I think rightly, say that Roe is going to die the death of a thousand qualifications. Overall, the pro-life movement has taken an incrementalist approach, which I think wise and prudent. Way to go. But they appear to have lost sight of a little strategic something in the process. I believe we …
Well, Then. Have At It.
I am glad to announce a new feature of this blog, which is that it is actually becoming a blog. Up to this point, it has been more of a web site, without the capacity for you all to respond or comment. But as of this morning, you should notice at the bottom of each …
That Wall of Separation
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has vetoed the bill just out of the California legislature, a bill authorizing homosexual marriage in that state. He did this in spite of the fact that he actually supports the right of homosexuals to marry. Let’s try to translate it into terms we all understand. In other words, he is “personally …
