Election in the B – I – B – L – E (proved from Westminster)

Saturday, January 31st, 2009

does God call a reprobate person elect to the extent and duration that he is a member of the visible body, or, for that matter, does God call a reprobate person elect to any extent or duration at all?
via Election in the New Testament – Part 1 « Green Baggins.
What follows is rather selective evidence

I want to say this is profound but I’m not exactly sure what it means.

Friday, January 30th, 2009

It seems that most Christians assume that a Biblical worldview necessarily includes being a Luddite.
That assumption gives away the show.

Inflation or deflation?

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

Since I’ve posted and linked many videos of Peter Schiff, I feel obligated to post this link to “Peter Schiff was wrong.”
I’ve always associated inflation with an increase in the money supply.  But what if “money” is not only cash?  What if it includes easy credit.  If everything has been priced on the assumption that [...]

Because protectionism worked so well during the last Depression

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

The stimulus bill passed by the House last night contains a controversial provision that would mostly bar foreign steel and iron from the infrastructure projects laid out by the $819 billion economic package.
A Senate version, yet to be acted upon, goes further, requiring, with few exceptions, that all stimulus funded projects use only American-made equipment [...]

Pravda for the UltraPork Bill

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

An unusual aspect of the recent debate in Washington is the lengths that supporters have gone to marginalize anyone who questions the so-called stimulus plan.
Robert Reich, Bill Clinton’s labor secretary and member of President Obama’s transition team, claims “almost every economist will tell you the stimulus has to be massive.” Nobel laureate and New York [...]

Atheist kitsch

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009

In case you missed my friendfeed entry, make sure you read Takin’ it to the streets! at Femina.  It is about the bus ads claiming, “there’s probably no god.”
It brings up a point that is slightly serious.  How many modern atheists actually read Nietszche or Voltaire?  I have to wonder.  Would Nietszche even be that [...]

By any logical measure, Angele – a strikingly attractive woman in her thirties with long hair and a model’s cheekbones – should have been on the sidelines, protesting against the marchers. After all, the divorced mother of two had been raped and subsequently exercised her choice to have a mid-trimester abortion. But things didn’t [...]

Stimulating Big Brother

Sunday, January 25th, 2009

The Institute for Health Freedom (IHF) warns that the economic stimulus bill mandates electronic health records for every citizen without providing for opt-out or patient consent provisions. “Without those protections, Americans’ electronic health records could be shared — without their consent — with over 600,000 covered entities through the forthcoming nationally linked electronic health-records network,” [...]

Anarchy from Middle Earth
