According to the article, a man essentially "slipped" his mistress the drug RU-486 that caused her to have at least 2 miscarriages. In Wisconsin, where this took place, there is a law … Continue reading Abortion and the Inconsistent U.S. Position

More “Golden Compass” Movie info…
As I've stated before, we don't need to cause a great financial windfall for Pullman's hopeful future films by publicly boycotting The Golden Compass.

Shaming the “Wise”
I was sent an article recently that should not have confounded me as much as it did. I should not be surprised at that folly of this world.

What I’m Thinkin’…
Well, I've been in my bed off and on for 3 days. The back injury (whatever it is) is getting mildly better and has left me with an inordinate amount of time to think.

One is the joy of preaching the whole counsel of God to a body of believers who are willing to listen to even more difficult doctrines like election as articulated in John 6. Another is a sense of wasted time. … Continue reading What Motivates Us?
