Nietzsche and Why It’s OK to Eat Your Neighbor
I bet you never thought cannibalism and Nietzsche would go together, but they do, quite nicely. I might never have put those two together, but I heard Gary DeMar discuss his book, Why It Might Be OK to Eat Your Neighbor, on his podcast. This subtitle gives us the...
The Importance of Both the Inner and Outer Body for the Christian
Since I got active on Twitter in early 2024, I often come across comments like this as people debate spirituality and physical fitness: From by what I can gathered and have observed by those who predominantly post about masculinity, not all but some, focus more on...
Eschatological Assumptions and AD70
From early in my Christian life I knew Jerusalem was completely destroyed, decimated, by the Romans in AD70. However, before I embraced postmillennialism in August 2022, I didn’t realize the significance of that event both eschatologically and theologically. I also...

KORN Guitarist’s ‘Loud Krazy Love’ Documentary: Powerful
God saves sinners. That thought keep ringing in my brain as we recently watched a new documentary about the Brian Welch, the lead guitarist of a heavy metal band called Korn. Loud Krazy Love, is not for the faint of heart (or children), or those sensitive to F-bombs....
Acts 2:37-41 – Repent and Be Baptized: “The promise is for you and your children . . .”
At my other blog I'm writing my way through the Bible, one of the best things I've ever done, and something I highly recomend for anyone who loves Scripture and likes to write. The last couple mornings I've been focused on this passage in Acts, and I make the case...
Lessons from the Life, and Death, of Rachel Held Evans
Since everyone else it seems has commented on the unfortunate and untimely death of Ms. Evans, I figured I would as well because there are important lessons to be learned from her short time on this earth. In case you are not familiar with Evans, she was an author,...

Science is Becoming God’s Best Friend
We live in a secular age, at least in the West, in which the dominion of science for all the good it has done has essentially replaced God for many people who find religion untenable. If "Science" says it, people believe it, few questions asked. In a little discussion...
Notable Quotation
[T]he disciples of scientism had a material explanation for the universe that they thought was rock solid. Now that explanation has collapsed, and we have the discovery of fine tuning pointing toward intelligent design strongly enough that it has convinced several...
#ShoutYourAbortion
The Planned Parenthood videos (see a "Quick and Easy Guide" to them at the Federalist) have put the pro-abortion movement on the defensive unlike at any time in the sordid history of legal abortion in America. Of course many abortion defenders have just attacked the...

Historical Aberations – Secularism and the Berlin Wall, Part 2
As I stated in my last post, The Berlin Wall is a great metaphor for the current reigning worldview in the West, secularism. My thesis: Secularism is a deeply flawed and weak explanation for the nature of reality. Correctly understood, we don’t need to fear secularism...
Secularism – The Modern Berlin Wall, Part 1
On the evening the title of this post came to mind, I'd been interacting with a possible publisher for the book. They have a concern with what appears my excessive confidence that we, Christians, can keep our kids Christian. Having read just the first few chapters...
The More Secular a Society, The Fewer Children Will Be Born
When I was growing up in the 60s and 70s, the big concern and among fear-mongering apocalyptics was over-population. One best-seller at the time, published in 1968 by Stanford University Professor Paul Ehrlich, was subtly titled The Population Bomb. It predicted that...

“Risen” Trailer Available
I learned about this movie called "Risen" coming out next spring, obviously around Easter. It looks very promising, with a big name lead, Joseph Fiennes, and obviously excellent production values. From the piece at Empire: Kevin Reynolds’ film, which he co-wrote with...
Notable Quotation
[M]oral relativism implies that neither cultures (if conventionalism is in view) nor individuals (if subjectivism is in view) can improve their moral code. The only thing they can do is change it. Why? Consider any change in code from believing, say, racism is right...
