I’m listening to the Democratic prez debate in NH right now. Nobody is talking about the separation of church and state. What can we do to make this more of an issue in a time where international issues are so pressing?BTW, My sis and bro-in-law were in he audience. They look good. Blurry, but good.

Man was not an accident and reflects an image and likeness unique in the created order. Those aspects of evolutionary theory compatible with this truth are a welcome addition to human knowledge. Aspects of these theories that undermine this truth, however, should be firmly rejected as an atheistic theology posing as science.

Senator Brownback, on his claim that he does not believe in Evolution. Kinda sounds like “X = Y, and any proof that this is not correct must be ignored. Any proof that X = Y is OK. This is Science”No, senator, it’s mythology.

Last night I sat down with my daughter to watch Happy Feet, a wonderful kids movie that’s on payPerView now.Minor Spoiler!Happy Feet is about a group of penguins that are facing famine. The elders organize the group to sing in order to please their god “Gwin”, so that the god will end the famine.The protagonist “Happy Feet” is a baby penguin that prefers to dance. The elders banish him, saying that his dancing is displeasing to the god, and is therefore causing the famine. Happy Feet asks how his dancing would cause a famine, to which the vulture-like elder penguins reply “Of course it is — How else?”Happy Feet leaves, finds the real reason (hint: it had nothing to do with a god), and saves the tribe. Had he stayed and followed the order to serve the elders’ god, they would all have starved.What a wonderful message!
