It has been pointed out that darkness is not a “thing” in itself, but the absence of a “thing”: light. Likewise, evil is not so much an entity of its own as a reaction to good. So both darkness and evil could be described as reactive. In contrast, good and light are proactive; they are… Continue reading»
This post was inspired by a PDF article entitled Language by Robert Bradshaw in 1997. I’d like to try and summarize it along with commentary of my own, including a few minor disagreements. I’ll list each fallacy with examples. Root fallacy– a word is interpreted to equal the sum of its parts English example: “butterfly”… Continue reading»
There’s a phrase I heard thirty years ago that I like to use: Those who know all the answers haven’t heard all the questions. It’s a good one to remember when it comes to things we take for granted, sometimes for our entire lives, until someone else brings it up. And there isn’t anything about… Continue reading»
This year has started with a bang, both globally and personally. The speed with which Bible prophecies are falling into place is incredible, and the whole world seems to be losing its mind at times. Lots of times. And increasingly so. But events the last few weeks have been intense for me personally, on a… Continue reading»

Most people who are familiar with Orwell’s Animal Farm quote the phrase, “Some animals are more equal than others” and rightly so. But the biggest message is how that phrase came to be. Throughout the book, the reader notices a steady but subtle change of “truth”. Statements and phrases are continually changed just a little,… Continue reading»
I just wanted to highlight a link I just added, called What Is the Hegelian Dialectic?. I see this tactic played out constantly, in all spheres of modern life, especially in the churches. Many think it’s the Holy Spirit behind movements such as the Purpose Driven courses, but holy has nothing to do with it.… Continue reading»
When even Christians start believing the Bible is just a book of fables, you know the end is near. I read this comment in another blog: Unfortunately… a lot of Baptists, maybe most, do interpret The Book of Revelation literally… “Unfortunately”? Since when is it considered unfortunate that Christians, regardless of denomination, should take prophecy… Continue reading»
When Galileo proposed that it was the sun, not the earth, that was the center of the solar system, the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) vehemently opposed the idea. Looking back on this, some now say that because “the church” has been wrong in the past about some scientific issues, then either (a) Christianity is anti-science,… Continue reading»
