Our Mother, Which Aren't in Heaven . . .
August 08, 2011 - In Defense of the Faith
There is a popular new theory circulating that argues that God is really a "She" rather than a "He." At first blush, that seems like a distinction without a difference. Who cares whether God is a "He" or a "She?" Well, maybe God does. It would matter to me but I am a real person. And so is God.

Coming Ice Age

J.L. Robb
And if you believe that, I would like to sell you the London Bridge. But just 35 years ago, the coming ice age was the big concern. I was taking an oceanography course at N.C. State in 1973, and the ice age theory was getting government-granted all over the country. Environmental scientists at major and non-major universities received tax paid funding to “prove” this new theory to be correct. It’s amazing what scientists can “prove” if they are funded to do so. Free money for the researchers, at our expense.

Anyone who has daughters knows the pains of when they first start becoming interested in boys. It’s like nothing else in the world matters. All of the sudden, their interest is in a certain boy. Morning, noon and night, that’s all they talk about. They talk on the phone constantly; or nowadays, communicate via text or Facebook. Blah, blah, blah, blah!
