Journalism and Objectivity
It’s pretty fashionable to complain about the main stream media, especially on blogs. We bloggers are, to hear us tell it, the answer to MSM bias. Now I do think that blogging has a positive impact by allowing expression of a greater variety of viewpoints. Often bloggers are quality journalists as well. (I don’t count…

Happy Thanksgiving!
Well, that pretty much says it. I will be having fun with friends and family, though I’ve already done a bit of casual blogging in the early morning hours. Blessings to all. If you’d like a thanksgiving post, try this one that I wrote for my wife’s devotional list.

The God in question must be one who rewards and punishes in…

MBWR #137 + My Highlights
MBWR #135 has been posted. As I’ve been trying to do more frequently, I’m giving a few highlights from each of the carnivals and roundups I read. There is so much good in these, and of course the person who does the complete roundup can’t really rank them all that much, so I think it’s…

PSA: An Unbalanced and Ineffective View of the Atonement
I want to warn those who expect a certain amount of conciliatory tone in my posts on doctrinal issues that I intend to speak more harshly in this post. If that offends you, try reading a different one. I don’t mean to dismiss you, but I feel the need to make some points very strongly…
