  • Race to Indifference: Election Day

    I voted this morning. It took an hour and a half to cast a ballot and I wonder if it meant anything at all. Most of our state and local races were uncontested, so there was no real decision to be made in any of them. In the Presidential election, which I have written about…

  • The Point of Evil

    I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil. I am Jehovah, that doeth all these things. Isaiah 45:7 (ASV) Why would God create evil? Some translations of Isaiah say calamity or disaster, but either way, what would be the point? The answer is not as difficult as it might appear.…

  • Boredom CAN be Entertaining

    I responded to one of the Nigerian Spammers over the summer and wrote them as if we were new pen pals. I offered her (or him) a cat, rambled on in jabberwocky fashion, used a pen name (Bay Tobin), made up words and overly familiar inappropriate nicknames, and provoked them for no reason. Such fun.…

  • Methuselah vs Beelzebub (aka Campaign 2008)

    I have my own political blog, which is neglected even more than this blog. I haven’t written on Campaign 2008 – the March to Indifference yet. The election is less than a month away, so here are my thoughts. Is it my imagination, or did leaders in the past actually inspire people? We have a…

  • Coffee Flavored Coffee

    I love coffee. I am sure I have mentioned this before, but it is worth repeating. I love coffee so much that I have sought help from paramedics for caffeine related anxiety attacks that have resulted in forced moderation. I love coffee so much that I eat chocolate dipped espresso beans for fun. My doctor…

  • Five Thoughts for Friday

    1 If modern fundamentalists claim there are no female angels, who are the flying women messengers in Zechariah 5:9? 2 Bill Gates retired yesterday. Now he has something in common with Vista – neither works. C If we are supposed to turn the other cheek, why is mooning so wrong? 4 Gas prices would drop…

  • Before You Go to Sleep, Say a Little Prayer

    Before You Go to Sleep, Say a Little Prayer

    I haven’t written in a while, so it is a good thing I am not using blogging as an example of spiritual discipline. In my previous post, I wrote about a church missing the point of who the church should be going after. Here’s another example. Those of you who know me know that I…

  • A Point Well Missed

    I was sitting around last week discussing ways to spread the word about the Celebrate Recovery program at my church when the conversation took an unexpected turn. We were trying to think of new ways to tell people about the ministry and focus on the fact that it is for anyone who has any “hurt,…

  • Five Thoughts for Friday

    1. If a sports radio host says he goes to the best steak house in town and orders the petite filet, is he really appealing to his target audience? 2. School should be year round. 3. If you are disappointed by the quality of candidates for President, feel free to write me in – I…
