I once had a bad experience being a moderator. No one ever listens and nothing ever gets done. This, despite so many leadership trainings. I don't know whether I should accept bad luck or blame, despite what I know...
So this is why I gave up on forums, until I returned back here. :)
The other day I wrote about the fact that there is no sure-fire way of determining what is God's will. Well, last night when I went to check my e-mail there was an article on the news section that talked about a 4-year-old boy who had been abandoned on a lonely Texas highway in the middle of...
It was my wish to be the moderator in another forum for Asian audiences. I hope to brng in a few supportive members around Asia (Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia etc) and i wished I can be the head of a relatively large faction in another forum, influential enough to warrant Mr Plank a visit to...
We've all heard a lot about failure; now I am going to write about the consequences of success.
Ten years ago I entered a statewide writing contest without thinking about what would happen if I won. I knew up front that there would be no prize money involved, just publication in an...
It seems our little band of missionaries has a problem. They are in Turkey (only it wasn't called that back then of course), and every time they want to go somewhere, it seems the Lord is blocking their way. They can't go north, and they can't go south. Finally Paul has a dream in which a man...
For the last few weeks I have been blogging about my journey through the Book of Acts with a local church, so I've been doing some heavy thinking about where I stand regarding religion and science, and why. (It also helps that my job, while requiring concentration and attention to detail...
Ok, here is the long-awaited answer (for anyone who really cares) about why Paul went and had Timothy circumcised at the beginning of Acts 16 when the Jerusalem Council said that new converts did not need to undergo this ritual. It's kind of ironic because right after he and Timothy go to the...
I am thinking back to the conversation I had last Sunday with the assistant pastor regarding evolution. His father, who was also part of this conversation, was very insistent that atheists are using evolution as a way of infiltrating and imposing their views on society. That's news to me, but...
As those of you who have been following this blog know, a few weeks ago I started going to church. I initially went to hear a co-worker preach, but ended up getting caught up in their study of the Book of Acts. Like playwright Oscar Wilde, who was asked to read just a paragraph for his Greek...
Well, folks, I have been outed. The assistant pastor found out that there is--gasp!--a Darwinist in their midst. He was rather taken aback but didn't make a big deal of it. I'm still welcome to join them at worship; but I suspect that if I formally applied for membership then it would become...
Talk about suspense! I thought for sure we would be done with Chapter 15 of Acts and move on to the big question of why Paul had Timothy circumcised, but no. At this rate it will take forever to get through this book. He said that they had been studying it for over a year before I joined them...
We've all heard about how law enforcement agencies use psychics to solve crimes, right? Well, twenty years ago, I got to see how that worked, sort of. If the circumstances hadn't been so tragic, it might have even been a comedy of errors. Because it certainly didn't work out the way it does...
Well, it looks like I am going to have to wait until next week to find out why Paul had Timothy circumcised as Pastor is still preaching from Acts 15. I actually am starting to feel a bit better about this church. Mind you, I am still agnostic, I haven't answered the "altar call" and don't...
One of the things I have noticed about physicists is that they get paid an awful lot of money for just sitting around thinking of weird things the rest of us don't. Recently I came across Maxwell's Demon, which apparently is one of the most famous thought experiments in modern physics.
James...
Once again I am reading ahead just to see what next Sunday's sermon is about. A lot is happening in Chapter 16.
First of all, Paul has acquired a new partner, Timothy, who is half Jewish and half Greek. Now there's a story right there, how Timothy's parents met and married seeing the two...
Yesterday the pastor started off his sermon on Acts 15 along the same lines as the blog I wrote the other day. He spoke of the Jerusalem Council and how councils decided matters of doctrine (at least for the first 3 or 4 centuries). But then he stopped and switched gears. Go on, go on, I...
Once again I decided to read ahead to see what material we will be covering this Sunday. We are now up to Chapter 15. Our heroes are back in Antioch in Syria when they get word that some rival preachers are in town and are going around telling the male Gentile converts they have to be...
I see that Harold Camping has said that he miscalculated the date of the Last Judgment and Rapture and that it is now for sure going to be October 21. Myself, I think it is either going to be February 30 or 31. You can pick the year.
According to the New Testament, one of the signs of the...
The most influential person in my life was someone I never met. I didn't even know his name until I reached high school and had to read his novel Walden Two. I am talking about B. F. Skinner.
B. F. Skinner was a behavioralist in the grand tradition of Ivan Pavlov. You know, the guy who rang...
