Some personal thoughts on the Boston tragedy.
Some thoughts on Boston: 1. No matter who the culprits are don’t let them curtail more liberties in the interest of “security”. All we get are grannies being groped by TSA agents. 2. If Muslims are involved let’s not jump on the “war wagon”. Let’s just try…

Christ Crucified is True Wisdom
Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we… View Post

If you haven’t read this, you need to. Living the “radical” life is not all there is to christianity.
Some quotes from the book:
Our hearts burn for our deeds to be noticed and celebrated. We want to do something big and have it thrust into cyberspace for all to see. Those who follow the man of no reputation pine for one, resumes ready. (p. 13)

Ignorance of the Constitution
It continually amazes me the ignorance that people have on the founding document of law in this country. Do they not teach civics in school anymore? All it takes is a reading of it to get a basic grasp of how amendments are proposed or ratified. Read it people! It is what all other law in the country is based on. I know you may hate America and the American dream, but ignorance of the law of the...
