On the October 8, 2015 Michael Medved Show, at the end of the broadcast, two callers were very critical of Benjamin Carson. One caller stated “Ben Carson is a lunatic, a sociopathic lunatic.” Another caller disagreed that Carson is sociopathic, but stated “Benjamin Carson is deluded” because Carson does not believe in evolution (meaning the General Theory of Evolution). He went on about how Carson believed Darwin was “evil” and believed there is a “conspiracy” to teach evolution.1 Medved defended Carson,…..
Recently, I was watching the documentary The 12 Biggest Lies. On “Lie #5 A Fetus isn’t human,” they showed a “pro-choice” lady holding up a sign that said “A MESSAGE TO OUR LEADERS: ROW vs. WADE OR YOU WON’T GET LAID.” I am not sure if this lady really, really thought about the statement that she was making. But she was actually affirming a point that I have made for a long time. It has been my contention that a…..
Genesis 5:1-2 states “This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God. He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created.”1 This is a short text. But what a person believes about this text will affect their world view entirely. First and foremost, the text tells us that we are not evolved from some apelike…..
On August 28, 2015, a Harris County Deputy Sheriff was shot multiple times in the back. The “Black Lives Matter” campaign is being blamed for much of the recent violence against police.1 From what I have been able to ascertain, the accused murderer, Shannon J. Miles, a 30-year old man, lived at home with his mother.2 Evidently his father was not a part of the picture. Once again, I can see how our problems as a society would mostly go…..
My wife wanted me to watch The Incredible Hulk with her. I am not one to watch fictional movies. But I did want to please my wife so I agreed to watch it with her. This led to her getting mad at me. At a certain point in the movie, when Bruce Banner “hulked out,” I told my wife to pause the movie. I am an engineer. So of course, as an engineer, I was compelled to explain to my…..
Planned Parenthood is once again in the news – this time for selling baby body parts from abortions. And of course the Obama administration is siding with Planned Parenthood. Many people are outraged, as they should be. I find it interesting that something in the “fish stage” or a “blob of tissue” could have human body parts. But all of this is to be expected once you know the common thread of Planned Parenthood and Nazi Germany – which…..
To truly understand the U.S. Supreme Court decision on what a “marriage” is, you need to understand that our country has rejected the Bible as truth and why this has happened. “Science” has been taken over by materialistic philosophy. Materialistic philosophy (otherwise known as naturalism) is the belief that matter and energy are all that exist – no afterlife, no angels and certainly no God. It goes hand in hand with atheism. It also forms a basis for secular humanism…..
Dan Quayle never really was given much of a chance. I will admit during the 1988 Vice-Presidential debate, he did not handle the question of what he would do as president very well. He should have just answered the question – saying he would work on cutting spending, promoting free trade, working out an arms deal with the Soviets, or whatever his agenda would be. He instead kept explaining why he was qualified to be president. Then there was…..
There are several reasons why we lost the Vietnam War. There is a legitimate discussion about getting ourselves into the war in the first place. During the Korean War, we would push up into North Korea, putting the Communists on the defensive; whereas the Vietnam War was fought more defensively. The Vietnamese had a history of being treated badly by foreigners – the Chinese, the French, and the Japanese. And to many Vietnamese who did not know about political-economic systems,…..
In my posting “Ireland? This is what I have been talking about!” I warned about Justice Kennedy casting the deciding vote on the future of our country. I explained that we are in this situation because of the failings of church leadership to teach Christians that they really can believe the Bible! Now it has happened. We know what side of the bed that Justice Kennedy woke up on. Justice Kennedy sided with Sonia Sotomayor and Elana Kegan (two…..
