The god of the gaps
A person who commented on yesterday’s post had some things to say with which I agree, even though s/he meant them as a criticism. Nevertheless, it does allow me to make a couple of points. Speaking of religious scientists s/he said: There’s only a problem when they invoke god, also known as magic, to solve […]
Current cosmology and the Church
As I commented yesterday, the Church has often had a hard time knowing how to respond to advances in cosmology. There has been a tendency to go to one of two extremes. One extreme is that most often cited by the news media, the Galileo trial and the Scopes trial, one by the Roman Catholic […]
Current cosmology and God
Today, atoms make up about 5% of the universe; dark matter makes up about 23%; and what is very strange is that 72% is made up of this dark energy. — David Spurgo, Ph.D. In the last century we have come up from thinking that the entire universe was within our own Milky Way to knowing […]

The injunction means that, at least for now, police are prevented from questioning people’s […]
Bethel Confession of the Confessing Church and government
Germany in the years immediately preceding World War II and into the beginning of the “Reich” was a terrible place. In fact, Europe was a terrible place during this time. Statism in both its left and right wing forms was winning the day. In every country in Europe and in the USA, racism and xenophobia […]
Military service with honor
Yesterday evening the Air Force notified my brother-in-law and his wife that their son, our nephew, had been killed. At this point we do not know the details. We do know that the whole family is heart sore over the news. My brother-in-law and his wife have another son in the military. He is in […]
