Every senseless death is a tragedy. This being said, depending on one's perspective, rationale can be offered as to why one death is more tragic than another. Recent headlines mourn the unfortunate death of Savita Halappanavar, a 31 year-old woman who died apparently because she was denied an … [Read more...]
A culture of disrespect
November 20, 2012 by 3 Comments
Let's all play a guessing game. The first person to correctly guess which political party this woman, identified as Lindsey Stone, is affiliated with, wins a thumbs up! But seriously, do we need more than one guess even given our two party system? … [Read more...]
Christianity is not a conglomerate
November 20, 2012 by 31 Comments
I have noticed with regularity that Christianity is burdened with the negatives displayed by other religious faith systems on the part of skeptics. I don't think this is my personal bias talking either. It seems like I am regularly saddled with the task of having to set the record straight. It … [Read more...]
Should we seek diversity?
November 19, 2012 by 42 Comments
How do you feel about diversity? Is it a good thing? Should it be a goal? I ask these questions because it seems like diversity, which is often times left open as a definition and left even more vague when it is actively sought. The idea of multiple racial, ethnic, gender, and social statuses … [Read more...]
Liberal diversity plans

___________________________________ OK, so without doing any research I will presume this video is a parody. However, it does a great job of summarizing the problem with the left's obsession with race and how their visions of social engineering are utter failures. So joke or not, it's spot … [Read more...]
Get to work: Retail workers threaten walk-outs in response to Black Friday
November 16, 2012 by 3 Comments
Workers at retail stores such as Wal-Mart are planning a walk-out in protest of being required to work on Thanksgiving. On one hand I can sympathize with the workers who, by and large, want to spend time with their families like everyone else. Their claim is that people shouldn't be kept from … [Read more...]
Why liberals will never be pro-life, Part 2
November 15, 2012 by 3 Comments
Not long ago I offered why I believe liberals will never be pro-life.

According to the Qur’an, the Qur’an is false
November 13, 2012 by 1 Comment
Inevitably when in discussions with people who reject religious convictions, I will be told that that all religious systems have roughly the same evidence for and against it being true. I can't even begin to count the number of times it has been implied that my being a Christian is one of … [Read more...]

Liberals and free speech
November 12, 2012 by 9 Comments
Recently Ann Coulter was uninvited to speak at Fordham University after pressure from the University president. This unfortunately, is nothing new. More often than not, when a speaker is protested and shouted from a venue it is a conservative message that is being stifled. It doesn't seem to be … [Read more...]
Atheist Marionettes Dance At Behest of Christian Puppeteers
November 9, 2012 by
I love irony in all its forms, even when it's at my expense, but I prefer it's at someone else's. It was visiting another blog where I encountered this post's inspiration. The entire post consisted of but two sentences: "I’ll be out in the world actually volunteering my time to make the word a … [Read more...]

OK, so after some time to let the dust settle and having dismantled the noose from my basement rafters, I think we can see some good news and bad news about the next four years.

November 6, 2012 by 8 Comments
Above is my electoral map for today's Presidential election via RCP. I think Obama can and may win some of the states I have designated as a toss-up, but as you can see, it doesn't matter a whole lot. What's correct, what's incorrect? What would you change? Create your own … [Read more...]
Barack Obama does not deserve your vote
November 6, 2012 by 12 Comments
Thinking back over the past few months of this year's campaign season, I am amazed at the number of people willing to support President Obama for a second term based on his effort. Much like in my previous post on effort vs. results, there are folks out there willing to re-elect Obama because he … [Read more...]

November 5, 2012 by 4 Comments
__________________________________________________ Isn't it something how history has a way of repeating itself over time? All it took was about thirty years or so for us to need a modern version of Ronald Reagan to save us from a modern version of Jimmah Carter. Listening to Reagan's recount … [Read more...]
