    USA Reflecting on the nation ...

    To refuse the obligations of international leadership and our duty to remain ‘the last best hope of earth’ for the sake of some half-baked, spurious nationalism cooked up by people who would rather find scapegoats than solve problems is as unpatriotic as an attachment to any other tired dogma of...

    Misreading the bible

    When you read the holy scriptures how do you do it; what stand, what ground, do you hold as you read? There are difficult passages. Passages about taking pleasure in the destruction of one's enemies infant children (Psalm 137). Passages about genocide (1 Samuel 15 onward). Passages about rape...

    "I don't need a saviour"

    Some in the world and a few who profess Christianity hold views that amount to saying "I do not need a saviour" and they do not need a saviour because they can, by their own efforts, overcome sin, Satan, and the world. That view is wrong. It is wrong for all sorts of reasons. Thinking about...

    Loving God means ...

    Does loving God mean anything about how you treat other people and how you think about the things you buy what they cost and what consequences there will be if you buy from the cheapest but almost wholly automated supplier?

    Alas for the old days ...

    I remember - when I was a child - the days when train stations had station masters and suburban trains had conductors and security guards as well as a train driver. Hundreds of jobs all gone now. The same was true of buses. They had a driver and a conductor. Now there is just a driver and the...

    USA Guns, gun control, and rights.

    Okay, the USA is not likely to pass any significant gun control laws in the foreseeable future. It doesn't matter why that is so, it just is. But that raises a question. After more than 200 mass shootings in 2017 and the killing of 59 people in Law Vegas a few days ago what can be done to reduce...

    Faith hope and charity

    Faith is about belief, hope is about what one longs for and acts as a motive, love (also called charity) is about ... what exactly? Catholics think of faith as intellectual assent. Hope we know from what Paul says, it is what saves us. It is also about something we do not yet possess. He says...

    In the USA 71% of Evangelical Christians - a group usually associated with "moral values" in their voting - voted for Donald Trump. A man divorced and remarried several times, alleged to have made unwelcome and improper sexual advances to numerous women, who concealed his tax status both prior...

    Moral questions and legan fiat

    Moral questions and legal fiat I posted in my reply to the Australian Same Sex Marriage Postal Survey (that's the official name) on Saturday. I answered "yes" to the question "Should the law be changed to allow same-sex couples to marry?". My archbishop wrote a letter advocating a "No" answer...

    Can you afford your phone? Really?

    I buy cheap android phones instead of "flagship" phones because it's really only a phone. It isn't a computer. It doesn't replace my desktop or laptop. It does sms and makes/receives phone calls and I use it for weather checking sometimes and as a flashlight sometimes and as a camera...
