However you spell it and whatever you call it, seems to me some people still get it all mixed around or even backwards. In any case, even though the Thanksgiving turkey is yet to be carved, Merry Christmas!
So what’s tickled my mind today? An article online (hardly a “news” story) about Humanists and their campaign [...]

To Be, Or Not to Be…

A Parable of Trebord
The doctor says that the patient has an illness which is always fatal if left untreated. The problem is that the patient’s family has been through this before. They saw the pain caused to loved ones when a misdiagnosis led to unneccessary treatment—and that patient died. No-one wants to be responsible for [...]

The following was shared with me recently and I wanted to share it with all of you as well:
Why Can’t I Own a Canadian?
October 2002
Dr. Laura Schlessinger is a radio personality who dispenses advice to people who call in to her radio show. Recently, she said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination [...]

This article was sent to me from a friend who knows of my rant against many churches today where money is a more frequent topic of discussion than is salvation!
DONNIE MCCLURKIN GOES OFF ON THE CHURCH!!!
Perfecting Church, Freeport , New York
This past week, popular preacher, recording artist and pastor, Donnie McClurkin, went on record to [...]
Have We Really Evolved?

What many look at in nature to support evolution is actually adaptation and specialization. What scientists have looked for over the decades has been proof of true evolution—that is, evidence of a mid-stage in a species or between species. Specifically, we can find eggs, pupae, nymphs, and adults in insects, depending on the insect and [...]
Is This Your Pastor?

Is this your pastor? OK, so maybe your church leader is a different gender or race, but this could still be your leader. What do I mean? Simply this—the church in America is under a gag order instituted by the IRS and out of fear of losing their tax-exempt status, church leaders toe the line.
Now, [...]
Why are Church Leaders Paid?
Posted in Faith, tagged Bible, Church, Gospel, Leader, Minister, money, Pastor, Pay, Priest, Tithe on August 22, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Why do they receive a paycheck out of what is given by the congregation? Can the leadership not make a living any other way? Do they really serve in such a capacity as they cannot sustain themselves or their families any other way?
Perhaps it’s because of the number of hours a day they make themselves [...]
Steve McNair

While I think I’ve heard just about enough on Michael Jackson, hearing the news about Steve McNair was not the
change I would’ve hoped for. With the latest information, it sounds as if a girlfriend who found out her lover was not getting a divorce and would not be taking care of her as his new [...]
And We’re NOT an Agricultural Nation?
Posted in Faith, tagged Control, Khapra Beetle, Pest, Scripture, Titihe on June 17, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Supporters of a monetary tithe almost invariably point to how the US is no longer an agrarian society. They contend that we as a society no longer produce from the ground and therefore are to tithe on our income. Some take it further and say it should be on our “increase”, whether that be income, [...]

My wife and I were discussing tithing again yesterday and we counted off the various categories we could think of:
Those who don’t give anything to a church
Those who give something from time to time as an “offering”
Those who “tithe” but don’t adhere to a 10%-definition for it’
Those who “tithe” 10% on their net income
Those who [...]
