The Enlightenment of Nothingness
January 14th, 2008
I found this video over at The Right Side of Wisconsin:
I love that Bill Maher can state his opinion. I love that he can say things that may offend folks, yet not be imprisoned for saying them. I love my freedom, and because of that, I have to look at this as an example of […]
American Crosscut: Christianity & Politics
January 7th, 2008
This Crosscut between Charlie Quimby and I was about politics and religion; namely, Christianity.
I’m a Christian, Charlie’s an Atheist, but as you’ll see, we both take issue with the over-involvement of religion in the American political system.
Charlie: We’ve both written about the injection of religion into this presidential campaign, and neither one of […]
Christianity and Politics
January 2nd, 2008
Is it the job of Christian politicians to bring people to Christ through their political power and public platform? Some of my Christian brothers and sisters would say “yes”. While I would agree with them that living our lives as examples of Christ’s love while in the public spotlight is important, I tend to […]
Quote of the Day
December 26th, 2007
“All I want for Christmas is for Christians to listen to what Mike Huckabee says, rather than what the media say about him. The mainstream media keep flogging Huckabee for being a Christian, apparently unaware that this “God” fellow is testing through the roof in focus groups.
Huckabee is a “compassionate conservative” only in the […]
Where’s Baby Jesus?
December 12th, 2007
I stopped by my parents’ house this past weekend, and noticed that my mom had her nativity scene displayed on the beautiful sideboard that I have always admired.
I had never seen this set before. The figures were much bigger than any set she’d displayed over the years. The scene took up the entire sideboard, […]
Why Huckabee is Bad for America - Part 2
November 26th, 2007
There was an interesting article in Real Clear Politics today about Mike Huckabee, and his nanny-state, tax-and-spend, global warming platforms. Here’s an excerpt:
There is no doubt about Huckabee’s record during a decade in Little Rock as governor. He was regarded by fellow Republican governors as a compulsive tax increaser and spender. He increased the […]
The Golden Compass: My Thoughts
November 12th, 2007
I was just made aware of a new movie being released on December 9, called “The Golden Compass”. The movie is based upon the writings of Phillip Pullman (His Dark Materials). Nicole Kidman stars. Since I don’t watch TV, I haven’t seen a trailer, yet.
Apparently, the movie involves two children, a boy and a girl, […]
The Unfounded Fear of Hate
November 3rd, 2007
Call me a crazy Christian, but I really don’t see widespread evidence of this supposed ‘hate’ that my brothers and sisters have for homosexuals. No church that I know of, within a 60 mile radius of me, makes a habit of protesting Gay Rights parades or showing up at the funerals of soldiers carrying signs […]
