G.K. Chesterton’s philosophical opponent, George Bernard Shaw is quoted as saying, “Youth is wasted on the Young.” This is one of many ideas that came to mind while reading the latest missive from Jess Winton. Another is a quote that some have attributed to Charles Darwin; “I was a young man with unformed ideas.” Winton…

Futurism: Seven Years and Other Thoughts
Folks, the short version is this: the phrase “seven years” is never mentioned in the New Testament. Not ever. Never once. But somehow, it’s a doctrine in the minds of most modern evangelicals. Ditto for lots of other proclaimed doctrines. Amongst these are: A rebuilt temple in Jerusalem—never mentioned in the New Testament. Jesus said…

Yep. It’s about unanimous that my immediate family (and a few others) are unsupportive of me. Somehow, I’m expected to be miserable for the rest of my life and must continue to pine over my deceased wife until I too wind up in the grave. I’ve gone from irritated to just plain done with the…

Good Grief!! No wonder things in our culture are so upside-down. I was warned this was futility, but I insisted on trying anyway. I have joined two online Christian dating websites.

Editor’s Note: I was sent this blog post just before it was announced that Trump authorized bombing Iranian nuclear sites. In wake of the Ukraine/Russia war and Isreal/Iran war, a lot has been made of “far left and far right” isolationism. Most of the media talking heads are shoveling a lot of bull shoot about…

It was going so well. The deportations, DOGE, law and order returning, no involvement in foreign wars, inflation cooling down, and the Democrat Party reeling like a swimmer drowning in a lake (or a passenger in the car with Teddy Kennedy). Then Trump nuked it all. To be very honest I am not sure why. …

Folks, you all likely remember Colin “Iraq has WMD’s and we have proof” Powell. He made those comments to the United Nations. Then like the chameleon, he is changed his stripes to keep a job with the Obama administration. This blog is going to point out that the action Israel is taking is no different…

You may have seen the footage from over the weekend and bleeding into the work week about anti-ICE rioting in the Los Angeles area. It’s a sad situation but again the democrats continue to screw up. Folks, Trump is by no means perfect, and I do have some issues with the deportations he is doing. …
