Lock Her Up?: There were a cluster of letters on this same theme, which I will try to answer at the end. Thank you so much for the gift of your writing. One question in regards to your post on “the fragility of order.” I am a conservative first and foremost. I tend to vote …
Letters from Lots, Lots of Letters
The MEMO: In regards to your delightfully understated post “A Dumpster Full of Grease Fire,” I could not help but do a little further reading. Thank you for the links to the “FISA Memo” as well as the commentary from the Federalist which were included in your post; anyone who did not take the time …
So Sorry for Posting Late. Kinda Busy. Leave Me Alone.
Housekeeping: Greetings, Not addressing any particular post, rather a technical question—in my quest to get away from social media I’ve started using an RSS reader to keep up with sites that I follow. I distinctly recall seeing an RSS feed for this site in the past but cannot find it at this time; is the …
Letters and Letters Galore and More
Theocracy n’Stuff: Well put, Pastor Doug, especially your conclusion: “God is being kind to us, and He is doing it in such a way as to preclude boasting on our part.” The word picture you created in your prior post along these same lines about no conservative Christian wanting to be photographed with Pres Trump …
People Love Writing Tomes About Theocracy
Russell Moore & Theocracy: Sir, I read Russell Moore’s article regarding theocracy that you linked to, and I am a bit aghast. How can anyone who has read the Bible make any such blanket and universal condemnation against theocracy in any and every form (i.e., his critique “also is true of every theocracy.”)? Does Mr. …
Letters From All Over Tarnation
The Bitterness Juke: Sometimes we preach the thing we most need to hear. And how often we think it’s ‘just the other guy!’ In a recent post you mention bitterness. I wholeheartedly agree that it’s important to be free from bitterness. But here’s my concern: it seems that some of this ‘bitterness’ talk in our circles is, …
Lotsa Letters
Flags Out Front: This brief reply has to do with the novel Flags Out Front. What an excellent concept for a novel. I have proclaimed for years that the US flag has no authority over the Christian flag to fly above it, let alone fly in the sanctuary of the Lord, as these flags represent …
Today is Tuesday. You Know What That Means.
The Eternal State: Re: “The New Jerusalem” This is compelling. If Revelation 21-22 explain what the bride of Christ looks like, does the Bible explain what things will look like after the return of Christ? Sure, God desires righteousness and justice, and the new heavens and earth would look like that, but it does seem …
Open Thread Tuesday. Not Troll Tuesday at All.
Alabama Senate Race: Re: Hot take on the Alabama Senate election of Dec. 12. You are making the child molestation allegations against Roy Moore the center of the issue. They are nothing of the kind. The allegations should have played exactly the same role in this election as the Access Hollywood tape played in the …
Troll Tuesday
So here we are. Below are some of the letters I have received, along with my responses. Pardon our dust and all that. The comments are enabled for this post only, and so feel free to interact. Consider this Open Thread Tuesday, with perhaps the occasional Troll Tuesday. But please mind your Ps and Qs, …
