Scripture, Tradition, and Ecumenical Councils, part 02
Yesterday I gave examples of how Tradition has vetoed Papal bulls, Roman Catholic Councils, and Ecumenical Councils. In each case, there are still many who would insist that those pronouncements are valid and to be obeyed, even while there is significant disobedience to the pronouncements. That is, Tradition is not a static set of statements […]
Scripture, Tradition, and Ecumenical Councils, part 01
On Sarx a question came up about that made me think about the relationship between Scripture, Tradition, and Ecumenical Councils. And, not surprisingly, my conclusion is that the relationship is a complex interaction that does not boil itself down to a set of easily memorizable doctrinal statements. I can, however, perhaps give some generalized thoughts […]
Frank Schaeffer for Obama
In yesterday’s Huffington Post, Frank Schaeffer, the son of Francis Schaeffer, one of the more famous co-founders of the Religious Right wrote an editorial supporting the candidacy of Sen. Obama for the Presidency of the United States. And, what an incredible journey it has been for Mr. Francis Schaeffer! From the son of one of […]
Latino McCain, ¡Olé!

McCain is not a foreigner, part 1
Judge says McCain is a ‘natural born citizen’ from Associated Press
Roots of Mysticism, post 01
As Huw comments on his blog, the first sentence of the book says that Christianity’s beginnings are Oriental and mystical. It is crucial to understand that in order to have a proper view of Christianity’s beginnings. At the same time, I wish to explore mysticism as it relates to my Latino background. I claim that […]
Saturday Night Live
So, I watched the take-off of Gov. Sarah Palin and Sen. Hillary Clinton done by Saturday Night Live. I can see why it has become such a popular clip. The humor was almost slapstick without being rude, and the comic timing was faultless. If they can keep this up, they may very well take over […]
