In Which our author argues from nature and Valentine’s razor: If the thing is everywhere the same, then it’s probably true. One can worship nature, or one’s self, or one’s tribe, or the ideology of historical progression towards the new post Soviet man or post human. Those who say they are atheist still acknowledge a […]
It is true that the law of Moses was good and true and it inspired by God. Hebrews does not deny it. But that law was a covenant, with penalty clauses. One that none of us were able to keep. We cannot be holy. We cannot even fulfil regulations based on righteousness, which is the […]
For those who have had fire and flood, some classic Stuff. But, for the sake of all that his holy, do not drink DB. A Pub With No Beer Oh it’s-a lonesome away from your kindred and all By the campfire at night we’ll hear the wild dingoes call But there’s-a nothing so lonesome, morbid […]
Today we were invited to a Golden Wedding Anniversary. These events are getting more rare as time goes on. Our marriage rate is imploding, and the amount of dysfunction and despair among both children and parents is increasing.

I have used Youtube to find music for the blog — I don’t for listening. But they make their money out of advertisements, and that is a problem. I […]
We got to church today for a bit of a storming sermon. About what we come to church for: to meet our needs or to serve others. At the end of the service the alter call went something like this. “I was one of those guys he’s talking about. I was in year 12 and […]
We may not be in Lent, yet, but Hopkins found that the season of psychological torment did not follow the churchly calendar. He calls despair comforting. To give up. To let the disciplines of your commitment fall apart. Instead he takes up his cross, splinters in his shoulder, and marches on. Carrion Comfort Not, I’ll […]
The law of Moses was a law of life, and this is now despised, because many of our elite hate life and hate our species and our nations and our tribes.
