An Honest Basic Assessment of Independent Baptists, pt. 4
The labels or designations for churches could be reduced to something like “the church,” and that would exclude almost no one. “The Church of Christ” denomination makes a big deal about the name, as if not having the right name alone disqualifies a church. If you know Baptist history, you know that “Baptist” isn’t a […]
An Honest Basic Assessment of Independent Baptists, pt. 3
When men stand before God, some might argue, what difference will it make what name or identity they were given on earth? People aren’t going to be called independent Baptist in heaven, so it doesn’t matter what they’re called right now on earth. For the most part, I’ve written, the independent Baptists do represent heaven […]
Questions for Seventh Day Adventists
The following are some (slightly edited) questions I asked a Seventh-Day Adventist with whom I engaged in a significant amount of dialogue. They deal with some of the damnable heresies and grievous errors of the Adventist religion. If, dear reader, you are a Seventh-Day Adventist, these are some of the issues that you really need […]
An Honest Basic Assessment of Independent Baptists, pt. 2
The first post in what is a series of undetermined length laid out some of the setting for this analysis. Who are we talking about when we say, “independent Baptists”? I did somewhat differentiate myself from independent Baptists by calling myself unaffiliated, but based on the most conservative definition, I’m still an independent Baptist. I […]
An Honest Basic Assessment of Independent Baptists, pt. 1
The best shortest designation of me, that would distinguish me more clearly than any other short description with words that the most people could understand, is probably “independent Baptist” (I noticed Wikipedia uses this terminology). However, even as I say that, I prefer to be called an “unaffiliated Baptist,” because I don’t think “independent Baptist” […]

Is It Scriptural To Stereotype Certain Cultures or Ethnicities?
Almost anyone reading this knows at least the left in the United States says it’s wrong to profile or stereotype. I wrote, “says,” because they don’t practice it themselves. The left stereotypes and profiles “fly-over country” and President Obama is famous for profiling small town Pennsylvanians who “cling to their guns and religion.” Now almost […]
Scan of 100,000 Galaxies and No Alien Life: What’s That Supposed to Mean?
A news source that culls the internet for the kind of articles I like to read directed me to “A Scan Of 100,000 Galaxies Shows No Sign Of Alien Mega-Civilizations.” Ouchie for that particular worldview — not saying that it had an iota of hope ever anyway. I ask you to think about all the […]
