A neat story mined with patches of chloroform

In my review of the comic book, I forgot to mention how weird it was to get “thought bubbles” of text bubbling from Buffy’s head.
You virtually never had that in the TV show. Maybe one episode started with Buffy reading Jack London as a voice-over narration to events, but that was the exception. And you […]

The quick obligatory recession post

I found enough coins to treat myself to some coffee across the intersection at Panera Bread Company.  When I reached the counter I saw a nice sign standing there with the Panera Bread company logo, colors, and 2008 copyright notice.  I tried to take a picture, but my phone’s camera isn’t good and I don’t […]

A brief personal statement about B. B. Warfield and inerrancy when I really need to be getting some work done

Warfield’s historical and theological analysis of Calvinism contains a great deal of fantasy (making the “immediacy” of the operations of the Spirit on the human soul the essence of calvinism, or claiming that there were two opposing theologies in Augustine–his soteriology and his ecclesiology at war with each other). Nevertheless, his Biblical studies on […]

Not the best PR statement

In order to provide the entire Westminster community with a more complete understanding of the Board’s decision and to offer an opportunity for questions and dialogue, the Chairman and Secretary of the Board will join the President on campus for a special chapel on Tuesday, April 1 at 10:30 am.
If you are dealing with a […]

Awakening (#1 of Chasing Yesterday)

I can’t vouch for all of the writer’s other series–just in case anyone searches Amazon or uses some other search engine (I’ve decided to stop using Google as a verb). I’m also hoping the next two books in the trilogy don’t do anything to make me regret this recommendation. With those caveats in […]

One of my favorite political books is coming back into print–actually, my only favorite for American politics

A few blurbs:
Review
“When I was deciding whether or not to run for President as a Republican, I re-read Justin Raimondo’s Reclaiming the American Right and it gave me hope—that the anti-interventionist, pro-liberty Old Right, which had once dominated the party, could and would rise again. Here is living history: the story of an intellectual and […]

Public order doesn’t require the punishment of aggressors; it only requires the punishment of people who demand public order

Judging by school records, at least one official seems to think Billy contributes to the trouble that swirls around him.
This is totally predictable.  Just like everyone knows about homosexual rape in prison and doesn’t care, everyone knows that typically school officials are going to want to silence the complainer rather than actually manning up and […]

Today is Good Friday

From the Gospel according to Matthew:
Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit […]

On qualifications to the ministry

There are churches where the pastor doesn’t know any Greek or Hebrew and his church history knowledge is woefully short (perhaps he is shocked to learn that Luther baptized babies when one of the church’s youths returns for Christmas break from college). There are churches where the structure of choosing officers is a real […]

God and man at Google

Or, more literally, Pastor Tim Keller at Google.  I’m pretty impressed with both Dr. Keller and with Google.

Heb 12.1-3

Whatever Jesus accomplished on the cross and through it, his primary mindset could not have been, “I’ve got to win God’s blessings through my efforts.” Otherwise, his attitude in obedience unto death could never be used as the example for the Christian life. But it is used that way all the time. […]
