    Reading early church fathers

    The Church Fathers are difficult for the modern Christian too understand because they are gentiles who have largely rejected the Jewish roots of Christianity and whose thought processes are rooted in Greek philosophy. It doesn't mean that they are so much as that they are irrelevant today.

    What If I Was Born Dishonest?

    I do not read the Genesis myth as a fall from an original state of perfection into sin and death. The first couple were completely innocent and naive creatures. They were certainly capable of making a mistake but, without knowing good from evil, they lacked even the ability to sin. That ability...

    getting covid vaccine

    The Pfizer vaccine has already been tested on 42,000 volunteers over the past several months and has been found effective and free of any serious short term side effects. The incidence of long term effects will take years to determine. Canada is actually setting up just such a long term study...

    Pro Life?

    Pro-Life, The American Myth of Republican Christianity By John Pavlovitz Pro-Life. They keep using those words, but I’m pretty sure those words don’t mean what they think they mean. I’m almost positive pro-life Republicans aren’t pro-life, in any way that actually—you know, protects actual...

    Election Challenges

    Trump unfortunately regards almost everything in a transactional way, ie. "if I scratch your back, you are obligated to scratch mine". I suggest that he felt 'if I can just get a case into the Supreme Court they are obligated to judge my way.' They refused to even hear the case with no...

    " When in Rome.." St. Ambrose of Milan

    Any bishop who would burn a synagogue for whatever reason thoroughly deserved to be rebuked. Why would Ambrose do this?

    Election Challenges

    Over the past several weeks Trump and/or the Republicans have initiated almost three dozen challenges in various courts in an attempt to overthrow the presidential election. All but one have failed. The one that didn't forced a recount in one state. IIRC that recount confirmed a Biden win. Today...

    Happy Thanksgiving

    In a world full of hatred, fear and violence we give thanks for our safety. In a world full of loneliness and despair we give thanks for our family and friends. In a world full of poverty and hunger we give thanks for our plenty. May we always strive to act in such a way that every human being...

    Nit-picky election question

    It is really quite simple, Biden received more votes both nationally and in enough states to secure a majority of electoral votes. A president-elect also needs time to establish himself and his cabinet and get up to speed on issues of national security. It is not sudden or intense, just standard...
