President Obama’s Humiliation of Israel
Here is a great article by London Telegraph writer Nile Gardiner. This guy is fast becoming a favorite read of mine. He indicates how President Obama treated the Prime Minister of Israel. It’s an embarrassment and intolerable to me.
Fundamentalist Seminary Attacks Centrality of the Church
I’ve not read anything this blatant, but I’ve got to appreciate the clarity. Most, it seems, try to be ambiguous today, so that you can’t quite figure out what they mean. Not in this case. Here, Jeff Straub, on behalf of Central Baptist Theological Seminary, says that the church is not central (no pun intended). […]

I’ve written a new article at Jackhammer that I don’t want my regular readers here to miss. So please click on this link, and read it all. I think it is vitally important. If you don’t like commenting at Jackhammer or just prefer to comment here, then please do comment here.

Health Care Insurance for Dummies part three

My wife and I traveled to New York to West Point for the plebe-parent weekend this last Thursday to Monday. While we were on the grounds of the U. S. Military Academy on Friday, I met and talked to another parent whose son and my son were acquaintance. I’m being purposefully ambiguous as to his […]
