Expectations for the Earning of Respect to Lead
A stronger obligation than ever exists in professional sports today to hire a younger coach, who played himself, and can relate better to the younger players. The consideration behind the thinking is that young players won’t just respect a coach any more. Greater value is put on relating. The coach indulges them if he wants […]
A Mess: The World’s Music and a Different God — Sing! 2019
An at least small tremor erupted within Big Evangelicalism in the last several weeks when celebrity evangelical Josh Harris announced he left the Christian faith. Many other big named evangelicals followed his declaration with an analysis, including Albert Mohler. I think another evangelical, Carl Trueman, makes a more accurate assessment of the relationship of Joshua […]

Is Hell Separation from God?
When I explain the gospel to someone, and I get to the penalty for sin, I talk about death and separation. I have long said that physical death is separation from the body, spiritual death is separation from God because of sin, and that eternal death is separation from God forever in Hell. This week […]
The Falsely So-Called Science, Yet Popular Psychobabble: “Daddy Issues”
Part One Falsely so-called science, and uniquely psychology, really psychobabble, proceeds from a requirement of meaninglessness. When I write, meaninglessness, I know there is meaning, of course, but the pseudo-scientists need a blank canvass for their own lust. They can assign their own meaning to any and every thing, like a rorschach ink blot, so […]
Goodbye Darwin: Three Prominent Scientists Bury Darwinism
Peter Robinson for the Hoover Institute interviews three scientists — David Berlinski, David Gelernter, and Stephen Meyer — and they talk about why Darwinism is false. Berlinski and Meyer have both written books (here, here, here, and here) and Gelernter just announced his own departure in an article in the Claremont Review of Books (here), which […]
Baptist the Dog: A Christian Children’s Story
My wife has written a number of childrens’ stories. While I am doubtless biased, I think they are good, and the children who have read them have enjoyed them. I intend to post them on my website, Lord willing. I have posted one called Baptist, about a doggie that comes to the Roberts’ farm and […]
The Falsely So-Called Science, Yet Popular Psychobabble: Introduction
“Over half of psychology studies fail reproducibility test.” “Scientists replicated 100 psychology studies, and fewer than half got the same results.” “An ambitious effort to replicate 100 research findings in psychology ended last week — and the data look worrying. Results posted online on 24 April, which have not yet been peer-reviewed, suggest that key […]
Art: What Changes?
Part One — “Artists” Our church doesn’t use the following psalter, but it’s available at Psalters Online. I chose, The Book of Psalms in an English Metrical Version, founded on the basis of the Authorized Bible Translation and Compared with the Original Hebrew, by Richard Mant. Here is Psalm 106:11-22 from this psalter, a versification […]
“Artists”
The word “artist” is like the word “culture” — in common usage, its meaning has disappeared. People don’t know what they mean, when they are saying it. The knock-off entertainers sure aren’t artists, no matter how many times someone says they are. God is the prototypical Artist. Art proceeds from the Bible in definition like […]
