Santy Claus Is Outsourcing! He’s gotta be. How else do we explain those pernicious little twisty ties that bind every toy to the box at the molecular level? Can we attribute this cruel packaging development to good-hearted, jolly ol’ Saint Nick? Doesn’t this seem more on par with some trick of Ol’ Scratch? Can a […]

One of the things I do when I’m not being Sirius is writing on my novel, sci-fi tale with fantasy overtones. The subject or plot of said novel is unimportant to this discussion. Now by all accounts science fiction is a bit of a hard sell for the Christian book market. The reason for this […]
A Christian simply has to acknowledge the UFO enigma. I mean, what are these strange lights in the heavens? Who pilots them, if anyone? And why in the blazes are they in our skies? And who benefits? [More on this in a moment.] Now there are several ways we might account for UFOs. 1. A […]
–Creation Cryptids: Mothman The Mothman of Point[less] Pleasant, West Virginia, is sort of a weird cousin of mine. That is, one legend has it that the Mothman was spawned by the curse that Chief Cornstalk placed upon Point Pleasant as the white men he was trying to save betrayed and then murdered him [and his […]

Cryptozoology, according to Bernard Heuvelmann [the "Father of Cryptozoology"] is “The scientific study of hidden animals, i.e., of still unknown animal forms about which only testimonial and circumstanstial evidence is availbable, or material evidence considered […]
Naturalism. By definition, it is the presupposition that the world came into being, developed [i.e. - evolved] to its present state and is sustained by purely material processes. God is not needed. Or so they hope. I think they’ve mistaken the concept of a God who is not wanted [by them, at any rate] with […]
Evolution been a matter of speculation [read: a vivid imagination] since Darwin first made the theory of atheistic origins popular. He theorized that life had a common descent and had developed from one-celled organisms to soft-bodied invertebrates to athropods to fish to frogs to reptiles to dinosaurs to mammals to man via innumerable small changes […]
I found myself discussing whether ghosts were possible from a Christian POV. Most of our discussion revolved around the phrase, “To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord” and Christ’s words to the repentant thief, “Today, you will be with me in Paradise.” I personally think that ghosts as restless […]
