America the Beautiful Paradox?

The above is a good read by the gifted Mr. Clancy, though I do not want to focus so much on the plot of the book.
One of Clancy’s characters, deposed Japanese Prime Minister Koga, describes America,
They have the most violent culture in the world, yet they worship justice. They venerate making money, but their [...]

Kansas State does Texas, Again

What is it with Texas not being able to get over on Kansas State? For the second year in a row, Kansas State has beaten the Texas Longhorns. Except this time it was by 20 points (41-21) and in Austin.  Of some consolation is that at least this year, the ‘Horns have no [...]

Fred Phelps at Columbia University?

Two of a kind and working on a full house
I wonder if Columbia University would give Fred Phelps a forum to share his misguided, self-righteous and hate-filled views.
One would assume so, since they let President Mahmoud “In Iran, we don’t have homosexuals, like in your country” Ahmadinejad hold court there.
Based on the hatred which [...]

LZ Granderson looks into the Reaction to Kitna’s Miracle

The Bible condemns this, despite racists’ twisted interpretations of certain texts.
Jesus commands us to love our neighbor as ourselves, how racism [...]

Gary Kubiak’s Finger-Crossing Prayer

While the hometown Houston Texans did not pull the upset (falling 30-24) against the defending Super Bowl Champion Indianapolis Colts, the team played gallantly (again, within the context of the game).
The Texans were playing without Andre Johnson, their biggest play maker on offense, and lost several key players as the game progressed. That they [...]

My Theological Worldview: Reformed Evangelical

What’s your theological worldview?

You scored as a Reformed Evangelical

You are a Reformed Evangelical. You take the Bible very seriously because it is God’s Word. You most likely hold to TULIP and are sceptical about the possibilities of universal atonement or resistible grace. The most important thing the Church can do is make sure people hear [...]

Thought Provoking Bright Eyes Lyric

As we reach adulthood, the music of one’s youth is still prevalent in our lives. This happened in previous generations, hence the existence of “oldies” stations on the FM dial. I am no exception, the majority of the music in the iPod is from the ’90s.
The onus to keep us afresh of current [...]
