Parties and Cannibals
Unavoided Consequences
Not many decades ago, Democrats tried to force silly ideas on the silent majority in America. Irritated, the majority voted just enough to put Republicans in power. Now, Republicans are doing the same thing the Democrats did—going against the obvious will of the majority, only this time, that majority isn’t so silent.
Six years ago, the adult kids, fed up with unexplained rules, voted opposite their parents. Now, elections are teaching young and old about consequences. Back and forth politics have made the nation so dizzy that a third party is not only possible—it’s about to become unavoidable. · · · →
Termite Wisdom
Looking for Truth
I get questions and comments once and a while like, “How can you be sure that the Bible is legitimate? How can we know what Jesus actually said? How can the earth be created in only 6 days? The Bible has wisdom, for sure, but I just can’t believe the factual claims.”
I’m giving a very simple answer to this. Questions deserve answers and evidence demands respect.
Firstly, for anyone who asks these questions seriously, who is interested in these ideas—not just looking for a fast excuse to invent personal religion—you need to familiarize yourself with two books: The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel and The Evolution Handbook. That should be a good enough start to decide whatever you want.
Responsible research means hearing from credible sources in favor of a belief—not only credible opposition, not only ignorant believers either! There are a lot of Christian idiots out there. · · · →
