The Ark of the Covenant, like many artifacts sought after because of Biblical speculation, is shrouded in mystery. According to the Book of Exodus, God commanded Moses to have the Hebrews build the ark as a communication device between God and Moses (Ex. 25:9-10). Contemporary references such as in Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) […]
We all know the Focus on the Family and the American Family Association have some great scientific evidence that prove that homosexuality is not only sinful via the WORD of GOD, but is also leading to the downfall of humanity. According to Dr. Dobson, there is a homosexual agenda to corrupt the minds of the […]
I just can not pass this one up: Pam over at Pandagon found an article on church ATMs. Yes, they are exactly what you think they are: tithing machines for the new generation. The best part is that SecureGive, the pastor of Stevens Creek Community Church’s for-profit company, is installing these automated ushers at […]
It’s the sense of touch. In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. In L.A., nobody touches you. We’re always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something. - Crash […]
A Buddhist monk kneels peacefully, not unlike he would in the confines of the monastery, beside a typical Vietnamese street.
A child looks on in wonder at the spiritual leader’s odd location for meditation.
Within seconds, the public square erupts in amazement, disbelief, and panic.
The grotesque violence of self-embalmment on display exhibits a paradox in […]
Males writing about feminism should be a study in itself. Those males critical of the feminist movement generally lack credibility and often resort to traditional patriarchal arguments. I, however, criticize the feminist movement for its misguided targeting. Generally speaking, who are the feminists? Without getting into generalizations, one cannot disagree that most feminists are females. […]
What is the connection between family politics and geopolitics, if any? Do they share the same principles? Should they be held to the same values? This weekend I ’stumbled’ back on to Dr. James Dobson’s “Focus on the Family” website. If you do not know who Dr. Dobson is, he is a Christian evangelist who […]
“This civilization is the work of man, who high-handedly and ignorant of the true workings of Nature, has created a world without meaning or foundation, which now threatens to destroy him, for through his behavior and his activities, he, who should be her master, has disturbed Nature’s inherent unity.” -Viktor Schauberger
What will our ignorance cost […]
I had so many great headlines for this story. If it was not so long, ambiguous or condescending I would have stuck with: “Evangelicals Chose God over Democracy in American Politics”. I admit, the title I selected is still a little harsh and maybe a little misleading but it is getting my opinion across about […]
As Khalidmir and I have briefly been discussing the issues surrounding polls, surveys, and statistics themselves, I figured I would end the 9/11 week with some of the odd, and not so odd, numbers of the legacy that is September 11, 2001.
0 - hours of intelligence training provided to FBI agents previous to 9/11
1 - […]
