I’m a bit behind on this, but a group of citizens in Louisiana have formed the Louisiana Coalition for Science, which is responding to similar legislative efforts to the one that died at the end of the legislative session here in Florida this year. Both personally and as a board member of Florida Citizens for…
I will probably have to repent for posting this, but I can’t resist. Post in haste, repent at leisure–probably much leisure.
I received the following comment on YouTube responding to my video Why I Hate the KJV.
Whoda thunk it? The Supreme Court has ruled 5-4 that the detainees have constitutional rights and can appeal to civilian courts, according to this MSNBC story. While I believe that extraordinary measures may be needed in war, there are several reasons why I don’t think that is the case here. 1) This has gone on…
I called to congratulate a friend and former student who was just ordained a full elder in the United Methodist Church at annual conference, and he said, tongue-in-cheek, “Yes, I feel much more powerful now!” So since some of the comments here (from PamBG [her comment], Diane R.

[cue trumpet fanfare, imaginary like the multitudes] The site has finally been moved to the new server, thus…
Dave Faulkner has commented here on posts about the Lakeland Revival, and he has a new article looking at some of the healing and even resurrection claims. He hasn’t come to sweeping conclusions, but is certainly asking the right questions. It’s worth a read, if you’re interested in the topic.
Despite the broad and pretentious title, this is going to be short and simple. James Poulos wrote today about politicians who commit adultery (HT: evangelical outpost), and said: …What Im angling for here is simple: a basic public consensus that if you sleep around on your spouse you are a bad person, and to hell…
Last Saturday I attended church with my mother, who is a Seventh-day Adventist. I was visiting for her 90th birthday.
