    Snowflake Babies...Are They Life?

    We, as Christians often take the stance that abortion is wrong and killing of the unborn. So.... Here's an unclear problem. Often when a couple is unable to have a normal pregnancy they resort to fertility treatments including using "test tube" babies. Where a fertilized egg...AKA an embryo...

    Doing Wrong With Good Intentions

    Has doing something you know is wrong to do resulted in something truly good as a result that you intended all along. There's a million ways this has been tried before.... IE causing some sort of catastrophe so that people will be more generous and kind?

    Epstein Files...the next Ashley Madison.

    The files are being dripped out to public domain.... And the reporters are having a field day with the names being released. They have tried to get Donald but come up empty. One very unreliable woman claims he was there but the rest refuse to corroborate her claims. In fact just the opposite...

    Legacy and Your Identity

    Everyone has some sort of family legacy for the most part... People from your ancestry that inspire you to form a portion of your personal identity. So my question is how much of it does formulate who you are as a person? If you have a bunch of career criminals in your family tree do you...

    The Seal on the Tomb

    Ok Matthew 27:64 & to the end of the chapter describes what Pilate said and why to the Chief Priests and Pharisees. The tomb had a set of guards of some kind (Roman or Temple) and a seal of some sort. Now I know that people envision a completely flat wall with a big circle stone in front...

    Are The Benefits of Social Media Platforms More than their Detractors?

    Dr. Jordan Peterson on the subject of Social Media.... I'm inclined to agree with him. Where I do like a lot of aspects of social media....the problems that have been created by it are literally earth shaking. And since it is not "All about Me"....I'm not sure if we weren't better off without...

    Ruby Franke and Hildebrand Arrests

    In case somehow you don't know.... A family began posting their lives and family (especially when dealing with their children) on YouTube on a daily basis. They had 2.5 million subscribers. (Millions in ad revenue every year) The channel 8Passengers covered everything dealing with...

    Givers and Takers

    There are those among us who are classified as "givers". They are forever giving something away to someone or being generous somehow. And even in relationships often one of the two people is a giver.... But....then there are the "Takers". These are those always asking for help...always...

    Humility Versus Pride

    What say you as to the definitions of these words and how the scriptures use them? Are they opposites? Related? What does pride look like? What does humility look like? False pride and false humility? True pride and true humility? Humiliation? Miserable? Puffed up?

    I Hate It When That Happens

    Any guesses as to what is in the picture above? There's a difference between makers and DIYers.... We are bred differently I guess....necessity being the mother of all invention....which is exactly how that Yak got Shaved. (You either know what yak shaving is about or you dont) But once again...

    Ring of Fire

    Thursday morning in North America and possibly Russia there will be a lovely solar eclipse in the morning hours. This is the kind where the moon is farther away from the earth enough that when it eclipses the Sun that a ring of the sun is visible...a "Ring of Fire". It's going to be visible...

    Pride Month

    What a JOKE! All kinds of commercials showing men and women engaged in sexually suggestive acts that show some company's pride/endorsement of the LBGTQRSTLMNOP community. And on top of this all kinds of various churches these days seem to be more endorsing of homosexual relationships and...

    Home Dreams

    Most young people dream of owning their own home with a spouse one day. Couple of kids and the white picket fence...(ok...overly trite but close enough) With the pandemic and the insane behavior of so many people around them...a lot of people don't want to live in an apartment any longer inside...

    Almost ready to rejoin the world in face to face style. My wife needs to return to the office one day a week and her car has sat for the whole year. So... jumped it off and there's a problem with the idle and struts...hazard module too. Probably an oil change wouldn't hurt it. I'm thinking...

    China and Taiwan WAR!

    China’s War Against Taiwan Could Come Sooner Rather Than Later These two aren't going to be happy unless they are going at it hammer and tongs. This isn't going to play out well...lots and lots of American and other countries are heavily invested in both countries but especially Taiwan. (most...

    The Lottery

    Moral dilemma come along all the time. And I heard of a new one but in reality it's an old one. Very very old. You are walking along one day and come across a set of railroad tracks and a switch. You see a train coming down the tracks. On one set there are 5-20 people tied to the tracks and...
