Global Warming Debate
I have been thinking more lately about the global warming stuff lately, since the Scientific American podcast has mentioned it nearly every episode for the last couple months, and decided to check out a site I had linked to before: Michael Crichton's Read More...
Creation Day 2007
So, I had proposed a creation day celebration on the Spring Equinox of every year. I believe that my total blog reading population is 1.5 people, so it hasn't really caught on yet. Certain groups suggest a different date , but I don't see the significance Read More...
Happy Pi Day
Celebrate π day - I almost forgot about this if it weren't for a nerdy programmers newsletter. Read More...
Morality - Can we keep up with the times?
Alright, the title is a little misleading... I have been thinking a lot lately about what is morally acceptable today. Many Christians have taken moral positions outside of the Bible's clear teachings. Many more Christians are afraid to speak up for the Read More...
Global Warming - Taking it back
So, this past week my favorite technical website posted several great stories regarding the issue mentioned previously here : Global Warming. I don't have much to say beyond what was said, but feel the need to spread the word through a couple links. This Read More...
I R Smart
Conversation overheard last night at Logan's Roadhouse: Girl 1: "Did you hear that they dropped Pluto as a planet?" Girl 2: "Wow, it's still there, right?" Girl 1: "Yeah, I think it is a star now." Girl 2: "Oh yeah." Right, so I was laughing out loud Read More...
An Inconvenient Truth - because it is a lie...
I wrote a while back about an article explaining the religious aspect of science these days. Now, things are getting worse. With Al Gore's latest entry into the world is ending crazy talk, this religion has moved into politics. Yep, that is much worse. Read More...
The Price of Gasoline
A lot has been said lately about the price of gasoline in the US. I will not be making any friends with this post, but I need to explain why I do not complain about the price of gas. The price of gas is set the same way any product in the US is priced... Read More...
Environmentalism... Article
I came across this essay/speech last week, and felt I had to pass it on. Environmentalism as Religion Alright, you gotta read that one, but in general, I have had lots of these impressions previously, but never had the information to back it up. The article Read More...
Olympic Fever
In case you haven't noticed, it's Olympic time again. I like watching the olympics, but can't stand the hype that surrounds it. The Today show has been promoting it since last year, and I am sure everyone loves the geography lesson that they make of it. Read More...
Introducing Creation Day
The thought crossed my mind tonight that there is no holiday for the creation of the earth. It would seem that that day is pretty important to all of us. The recent controversy of creation vs. evolution has become a mainstream issue, and prompted this Read More...
Filibuster Me
Why is it that we allow our government to behave the way they do? I am not directing this specifically at the democrats or even the filibuster, although I will get there in a moment. Both parties are filled with corruption, and both parties have leaders Read More...
That's what he was thinking...
After watching Pete Hoekstra on TV this morning I feel that I must amend my Previous Post . Pete seemed to make a lot of sense regarding the spying issue. I had not understood before that the congress was so well involved with the whole process. Also, Read More...
NY Transportation
Just a quick note to say "woo hoo". NY, takin' it to the unions. I am thankful that the law held up on this issue. I would like to see the fines go forward, even though this thing is over. It is time that these union leaders pay for the irresponsible Read More...
What was he thinking?
Alright, first some background. I haven't really blogged a whole lot about political views, but I will go on the record as a very conservative Republican. I have always voted straight Republican, and consider the pro-life agenda the most important political Read More...
