• I'm a teetotaler!

    No thanks! I don’t like the bitter taste of alcohol. And remember, if a Christian imbibes it must be only if the following two conditions hold: One drinks in moderation (never drunk). You don’t drink around a weaker brother if it will cause him to stumble.

  • Wild Ones

    Besides Farmville, the other Flash-based Facebook game I love playing is Wild Ones: My character is a rabbit and recently I acquired the coveted samurai outfit which will give me -15% damage reduction! As you can see, I have a pet reindeer, he picks up health and gift boxes for me 🙂

  • Terrible Parenting

    My reaction to this arrogant, narcissistic, superficial piece in the WSJ by Amy Chua, “Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior”. Amy Chua you are a very poor journalist and a failure as a mother in my view. The article is ridiculously biased and ones-sided as it portrays the stern Chinese parenting as GOOD and the Western…

  • Stop the Comedic Jihad Against Christians!

    Christians are the #1 target of comedians in the US, such as Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart, and I’m sick of it. They don’t DARE go after Muslims. It is quite the opposite it is climate of PC and everyone is taught to respect Muslims and revile Christians in the public schools. The comedians are AFRAID…

  • faith and reason

    Posted a comment on Darlene Egelhoff’s blog Wonderful blog post Darlene! I studied physics at Carnegie Mellon University (before my mental illness struck) and I *love* science. The great lie of the so-called New Atheists (people like the insufferably arrogant and condescending Richard Dawkins!) is that one must reject theism to be accepted as a…

  • The lie of materialism

    I grew up poor but we were very happy so I never made a false link between money and happiness as, unfortunately, so many seem to do now. I never wanted to be rich, but as a kid there were certain things I thought it would be cool or fun to hav.e someday. The older…
