2007-10-13 05:06 Chapter 4: Everybody Dies
Chapter 4: Everybody Dies Six years before Jacob Mallow was a bright young man, the interviewer decided. His eyes were wide and always searching, so he looked lost, but he would probably contribute to some graduate program in bioengineering just not this one. The interviewer glanced at Jacob s folder and knew he wouldn t get in. His test scores and grades were as exceptional as those of any plausible candidate. Hell, he hadn t even heard of the St. Louis college Jacob had attended. On the …

2007-10-08 22:38 Who would Jesus kill
A year ago, Ben Witherington weighed in on the Amish massacre: http://benwitherington.blogspot.com/2006/10/lessons-from-amish-power-of-pacifism.html I m afraid Witherington reminds me of the parties which the Bernsteins used to throw for the Black Panthers immortalized by Tom Wolfe s satirical prose. This friends is real Christianity. Christians do not retaliate. They do not seek revenge, for the Bible says that vengeance should be left in the hands of the Lord. In fact they do quite the opposi …

2007-10-05 21:16 Snake Oil and Vouchers
A few years ago, my Ward went on a journey to Green River and Goblin Valley State Parks. I left about 12 hours before everyone else and took the scenic route to get there. ALong this journey, I discovered that there are old uranium mines in Capitol Reef National Park. Most of them date back to before we used uranium for weapons. SO, what was uranium used for Well, according to a sign in the park, it was used as a topical ointment for many ailments, from arthritis to gangrene. As the sign said, t …

The kid cried and Nanny Benny was quick to wipe off the tears and say, "everything will be allright." Only problem in the current Fed fairy tale: Both parties involved have forgotten about the burning house! Jim Cramer can uncork a bubbly. His outcry on tout TV was answered swiftly and generously by the Fed. Forget about $81 crude oil and fiscal philandering, let's keep the markets party going at truly all costs. Today's 50bp rate cut to a Fed funds rate of 4.75%, the first in 4 years, will back …

Some of the worst music of modern times has arisen from The Charity Single - facile, lowest-common-denominator pop for the masses. Or worse, novelty records by 'comedians' that are marginally less funny than gangrene. We thought it was about time someone produced some challenging, uncompromising and uncommercial music for a good cause. The conceptual twist is that all the tracks on Crania Draft Massif are remixes, reworkings or covers of existing charity songs. We've taken songs intended to appe …

Today was Daniel's 26th birthday. We didn't get to do anything special though and he didn't get a gift because we were pretty broke. But he messed up and blew the money that was going toward his birthday so he understood. Still, it made me feel bad because I always make a big deal out of his birthday. Daniel, Dillan and I hung out at home all day and this evening grilled some steaks that I had in the freezer. It was a good lazy day though, just nothing spectacularly birthday-ish. We spent Friday …

2007-09-03 22:59 Anniversary: Abortion tourism kills mother, too
After California legalized abortion on demand in 1970, a Texas company began selling abortion referrals and air fare. Twenty-year-old Katherine Morse was one customer. Katherine was admitted to Bel Air Memorial Hospital in LA County on September 1, 1972. (Until Roe v. Wade, California abortions were performed in hospitals, and many hospitals opened specializing in abortion.) John Dupont initiated a saline abortion on Katherine. Katherine dveloped a 102 degree fever, then expelled the dead baby j …

2007-08-31 08:05 Another Problem For Baseball
Earlier this week Giants reliever Vinny Chulk went on the DL for what was believed to be a blood clot in his hand. Tests later revealed that there was no blood clot, and doctors now believe Chulk has a circulatory problem called Buerger's disease. The disease has caused a cold sensation in his right hand and some discoloration in one of his fingers. If it goes untreated the disease can lead to gangrene in fingers and toes. Here's the important part. Buerger's disease is associated with tobacco u …

The single greatest message I have ever heard or read on 2 Tim. 4:1-5 is by John MacArthur. This is what sets John apart from the rest of the pack in evangelicalism today who are mostly consumed by the expedient syncretistic moorings of their own imaginings; baptized in the postmodern ecumencial egalitarianism of pragmatism that is more concerned about being "liked" rather than being concerned for the truth. John's undying dedication and preaching of God's Word for close to four decades now is a …

an object lesson with possibly gross pictures Suppose that you've been knitting socks all summer. And then, one week, you're just all socked out. So you knit something else for a while. But then, one night as you're watching your Psych dvds, you say to yourself, "I WANT TO KNIT A SOCK." So you pull out your needles and yarn and set to, generating about an inch of a toe before heading to bed. You toss the project to the floor as you stretch and yawn, and you go upstairs and have a good night's sl …

INTRODUCTION (Titus 3:1-15) God calls for strong churches that proclaim and live the reality of the transforming gospel so that it is attractive to the lost. Testimonies like these are built on sanctified relationships. As we have already seen, God has dealt with the churches on Crete by explaining the relationship of believers in the church with the Lord of the church, as exemplified by its leadership. Chapter two deals with believer s relationships with each other; and the first half of chapte …

I'm often asked where I get myinspiration from, and I have to admit I'm an idea slut - I'll take 'em wherever I can get 'em. But sometimes, books are launched by the sheer hunger to know more about a subject, bythe drama of something so significant in the course of human events that you just want to bring it to the page.
