Really Right

“If I profess with the loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the truth of God except that little point which the world and the Devil are at that moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Christ. Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved, and to be steady on all the battlefield besides is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point.” — Martin Luther

I recently made a statement that being transgender simultaneously violates about five of the Ten Commandments. In this post, I would like to see if I can prove the statement. I will use the approach of the Westminster Catechism. Each of the Commandments simultaneously prohibits something and encourages its opposite. Being transgender violates the First…

  • Review: Palermo Restaurant

    Review: Palermo Restaurant

    Palermo has been around for forever in my hometown.  I never think about it when it comes to Italian food, even though I have been there 3 times prior.  It is a family-owned restaurant that clams to make Italian food from scratch.  Let’s get to the review! Blogger Note: on this trip we were in…

  • I told my girl that I wanted a burger and a beer. I’m not much of a drinker but it just sounded good. We hopped in the car and drove for about 20 minutes to somewhere I’d never been before. We parked next to a McDonald’s—not a good omen—and then went for a walk. We…

  • I’m about ten days into this trip. Here are a few observations thus far. Getting a visa extension to stay here was easy. The hardest part was the demand that payment be made in cash. The cost was just north of 4,000 pesos ($66). I needed to complete a form, pay a fee, and then…

  • I haven’t written about my wife’s struggle with cancer lately. I wanted to provide an update for at least two reasons, first, it’s been over a year since her diagnosis and secondly, she just spent a week in the hospital because of cancer related reasons. At the end of August, the wife and I went…

  • Avoid.  That’s the one and only word.  Your humble correspondent has not and will not visit after hearing and seeing several trusted sources review our new shiny casino.  Sky River is a brand-new casino that opened in the same town as this blog’s world headquarters.  We have always been skeptical as this is a small…

  • Fentanyl is affecting hundreds of thousands a year, in all our communities.  How and why is this happening? Well really its simple, we are a country of addicts. We do not want to believe or hear this but allow me to lay out my reasoning.  In this country we are a nation of addicts, be…

  • If you live in California you are used to hearing stupid, moronic, dumb, depressing things.  It reached a new low this past week.  The same week Governor Newsom and his merry band of idiots announced new gas powered car sales will cease in a decade, he also reminded us due to a heat wave not…

  • Now I say this, that each of you says, “I am of Paul,” or “I am of Apollos,” or “I am of Cephas,” or “I am of Christ.” Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? 1 Corinthians 1:12–13 Even if you don’t recognize all the…

  • I was wrong, I’ll admit I was wrong.  I apologize to the family of Kiely Rodni.  Rodni was discovered by a dive team the other day.  In her car, which was found upside down in Prosser Reservoir.   I said I would retract my comments if I was wrong and I am a blogger of my…
