“What’s hell like?” my oldest child asked me, pretty much destroying every cheery thought I’d been having as I drove the road to home. Kids are full of questions. I answered as simply as I could, which [fortunately] is a habit for me. “It’s a bad place. It’s full of flames, because it’s a place of punishment;…

On the Compatibility of Christian Faith & Evolution: Which Atheist is Lying To Us?
This weekend, atheist Dr. Michael Zimmerman is once again encouraging churches to preach Darwin from their pulpits. He claims that his Clergy Letter Project, signed by over 12,000 members of predominantly liberal clergy, shows that evolution and Christianity are compatible so long as we define religious truth as dealing with doctrine and morality and scientific…

Christmas & the Archko Library
Every Christmas and Easter, I get tons of hits on The Archko Volume, or Archko Library by the Rev. W. D. Mahan. Proponents of this work of pseudo-apocrypha, including televangelist Benny Hinn, claim that the Archko Volue is an authentic historical work recovered from the Vatican Library which authenticates many of the events of the…

Why I Didn’t Need to Call NASA To KNow the World Isn’t Going To End on December 21, 2012
Yes, I’m still offering Johnny Came Home free on Kindle today. No, that’s not what this post is about. I’m writing this post because I found out that NASA was/is being flooded with calls and emails from folks wanting to know if Doomsday is here. The Mayan Long Calendar ends on today, December 21, 2012….
2012, the Mayan Calendar & the Free Kindle Book at the End of the World
The Mayan Long Calendar ends on December 21, 2012 and everyone’s seeing that as a sign of an impending Apocalypse. Well, not everyone. The Mayans were actually looking forward to it as something of a Golden Age per some scholars. In any case, Christians need not fear this hocus pocus. Jesus adamantly stated even He didn’t know the…
What Christmas Means and Why I Hope Bart Ehrman Gets It Someday
A recent Newsweek cover [Dec. 17, 2012] pictures the Nativity and claims that Bart Ehrman will answer such questions as “Who was Jesus? Did he have a wife? How many wise men were there? Why Bethlemhem? In a manger or a cave?” Unfortunately, the cover is referring to an article inside called “The Myths of Jesus.” In…

Serving Up Dependence? Are We Teaching Kids To Depend on Government Handouts?
While I’m a homeschooler, I don’t often blog on the subject. Recently, I had an experience that made me think, We’re doing something wrong here in America. A table of boys in a grade school cafeteria asked me a question that I get from time to time from kids: “Why are you a janitor?” I…
Objections to Young Earth Creationism Often Reveal A Basic Misunderstanding of Science
Recently, I ran across a few comments about this image on a site called atheistthinktank.net. I really don’t expect fans on these sites, but I was surprised to see that their basic objections reveal a fundamental misunderstanding of the debate. For example, take this comment by someone who sadly identifies themself as nogodsforme: “What the eff? I…
