Is a Progressive Tax Code Constitutional?
I’m preparing to write substantive, spiritual, biblical posts, continuing the series that I’ve already started (I don’t know how many exactly I’ve got going, but I know of a few at least). I like to do that, but right now I’ve got extra stuff, more than normal, in the way of a new, old house […]

Cult-Like Tendency in Modern Evangelicalism and Fundamentalism, part three
I think the word “cult” gets thrown around too easily, but I’m still using it in this series (part one, part two).
