Canada, Camps and Cancer
Posted on 17/09 11:23
If you read my blogs, you know this is the first entry in quite a while. It’s all because of Canada, camps and cancer.
Our summer vacation commenced in Canada. We went to Vancouver, BC several days ahead of our family-wide Alaskan cruise, celebrating my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary.
I could have stayed in Vancouver two weeks. The weather, the stunning beauty of the land and seascapes, the endless variety of food and activities...

Playing with Fire: George Tiller and Carrie PreJean
Posted on 02/06 11:22
I know, this is the oddest of comparisons. But here’s the connection: God has warned both of these people. George apparently did not heed the warnings. Carrie, for the time being, apparently has.
George Tiller was directly responsible, by his own hands or the hands of those who worked for him, for some 60,000 abortions. It’s hard to believe every one of those abortions was a deformed child that endangered the life of his or her mother. In fact, I don’t know one single person in my...

Taxing Abortion
Posted on 20/05 09:36
2009 may well be recalled as the year of the unending tax increases. Pennies here, dollars there, pretty soon it adds up to real money. And these tax proposals are getting personal: someone wants to raise taxes on my beloved Diet Pepsi!

Read this article...I hate to sound like a freaky conspiracy theorist, but the sudden spike then plunge in oil prices last year suggests to me, maybe more than anything else that's happened economically, that larger forces are controlling the markets and politics of our world.

Be Careful: Baby Killing is Contagious!
Posted on 06/05 11:26
It was one of those news reports I couldn’t read. The headline said enough.
“Man Throws Baby From Car.”
My body reacts physically to incredible evil. Something happens when knowledge of the unspeakable hits my temporal lobe, the place where we all experience God in our brains.
A sensation not unlike electric shock shot down the back left side of my skull, just reading the headline. Later in the day, I heard someone on television say that the three-month old baby boy died.
A wasted life, literally thrown away.
Social commentators will spend some time analyzing why and how this happened, but the truth is that baby killing is contagious.
Nonsense, you may think. But is it really? I contend that baby killing is just as contagious as swine flu.
Malcolm Gladwell talked about what causes...

Didya ever wonder why….
…our government stops the torture of our mortal enemies yet permits the torture of unborn babies?
…our government is on the cusp of granting fabricated rights to an extremely vocal minority while silencing the legitimate free-speech rights…and sincere religious beliefs…of the majority?
…our government prevents prayer and restricts the Bible and religious after-school clubs in public schools, but many formerly-Communist states do not?
…our government is digging deep into debt when the first thing you do with your own money in times of crisis is to save?
…our government is raising taxes, nationalizing banks and car companies and reducing prosperity when countries we consider inconsequential have enacted flat taxes and are rejoicing in their new jobs, wealth and productivity?
The answer to all these questions is (drumroll...

What would you do if you knew the Anti-Christ?
Posted on 27/04 14:15
Okay, now I’m firmly in whacko territory. No one really believes all that stuff about the anti-Christ and apocalypse and angels breaking seals, right? Well, count me in the same camp as Carrie PreJean, Miss California-USA. I actually DO believe the Bible, and have spent a substantial chunk of my life learning its obvious lessons and the ones less-so.
What if the cultural changes in our lifetimes have been a portent of the appearance of Mr. Evil? Hang with me for a minute and think about what has happened since, say 1950, the second half of the 20th century.
Our country led the way and the entire world followed...

Midnight on the Clock of Eternity
Posted on 23/04 17:43
Daily the news reveals a seemingly never-ending litany of encroaching violations on individual liberty. From corporations semi-seized by the government (the government structuring corporate bankruptcies…isn’t that up to the management and shareholders?) to the philosophy of limitation by taxation, no commoner is safe from the clutches of the soulless monolith we call our government.
Seems we’re all kind of scratching our heads these days, wondering how this happened.
The answers are historical, simple, butterfly-effect in action. One little step in Washington can make significant waves in the local ponds in which we swim.
But even if we can answer the how, can we answer the why? Are our current economic woes the result of stupidity and greed, or something more sinister? I contend these are not the right questions...

Tasteless TEAbag Tirades
Posted on 17/04 11:38
By now most of you have heard of the hijinks at several major news outlets regarding the TEA party dissent on April 15. The sexual innuendo was so perverse that only major networks and media darlings could get away with it. That’s right…only the chosen few (Anderson Cooper, cough cough) could sandbag sodomy so succinctly, without severe sanctions.
Seems that when it comes to tasteless talk, commentators with a head for hedonism do it best.
Perversion used to be kept properly in the dark, but that was before 500 television channels and 24-hour news cycles. Now, we have grown so sophisticated and free from religious restraints that we can say nearly anything, anytime, anywhere, as long as it is offensive to the righteous.
But there is nothing new under the sun. After studying on these sophomoric seminal rants, I was reminded, quite appropriately, of Sodom.

National TEA Party Day
Posted on 15/04 06:00
Happy TEA party day! As you enjoy paying your tax money today, remember that our taxes fund things like (1) national and international abortions (2) public education that produces cities filled with illiterate children (can you spell Detroit?) (3) bail-outs for businesses that are run like casinos and (4)frivolous projects that would be the first thing to go if this money were your personal money.
Here's a link to a 6-minute video that reminds us why and how this country was founded: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeYscnFpEyA
As mentioned in an earlier blog, John Adams explicity stated that the American form of government can only succeed if it is in use by a godly and moral people. So American Church, the greatness of our nation rests on our shoulders. Second Chronicles 7:11 - 8:6 call to mind a time when governance worked. People, including the appointed leader, were humble before God. They followed God's commands, and the country was rebuilt. Stores and supplies and riches accumulated in this time. Christian America, it's not too late to learn this lesson from our spiritual history!
