Confession

I am an addict.  Yes, my body needs caffeine.  No, not to wake up.  When I try to go cold turkey, which I did a few weeks ago- serious migraines.
So, this isn’t the type of addiction that is really an idolatrous desire to seek life apart from Jesus- like food, alcohol, TV, music, sex etc.  [...]

Christian Hope for Society #1a: What Can We Hope For?

I came across a small, book from the 50’s collecting a series of articles from some Neo-orthodox professors on this subject.  I’ll be slowly working through the book.  Today’s chapter was written by John C. Bennett.

Bennett believes that there are 3 forms of [...]

IRS & Income Redistribution, Or I Don’t Get Paid Enough

For quite some time my income has been such that I’ve usually gotten a total refund.  Such is life as a pastor.

Global Warming?

The whole global warming hysteria amuses me.  I remember flying back to FL back in the late 90’s, and reading a Boston Globe article on how the data is not conclusive.  The Boston Globe, not some right-wing rag.  The Globe leans far to the left in matters political.
Now, a bunch of evangelical leaders have jumped [...]

Go Green

It has been a long, long, long season for the Celtics.  Finally, it looks like it might have been worth it.  They have been playing much better lately.  The trade with Minnesota got rid of the bad apples, namely Blount, Banks and Davis.  One bad apple came back- Kandi man- but he will be gone [...]

Manny Being Moronic

I really appreciate Manny Rameriz’s skill with a bat.  He has brought me great joy as a member of the Boston Red Sox.  He is a pure hitting machine.  I’m glad he’s a Red Sox, and hope he continues to be one.
But… his antics are getting old.  Manny should have known what to expect playing [...]

Welcome to My World

You can never be sure what you will find here.  Nearly anything is free game, and discussion is a good thing.  Well, as long as people continue to treat each other with respect.  Enjoy yourself, perhaps think about things differently and come on back now, ya hear!
