Throwing Money at Education Isn’t Working
Why is it that a stay at home mother who pays $1000 or less for a curriculum’s worth of books, $15 to join an area group for sports, recreation and activities, and spends $100 for a sport and then pays school taxes for services that they can’t take advantage of (instead of getting paid by [...]
5 Things People Believe Indicate the End of the World
I’m not sure that a generation has gone by since Christ returned to Heaven that hasn’t believed that Christ return would happen in their lifetime. My grandparents both believed that they would live to see the Rapture, and yet they both died and did not see it. However, that doesn’t stop many people from around [...]
Television and Christianity
On a recent episode of Friday Night Lights, there were some elements that bring up an interesting discussion about children, Christianity and television.
Mortgaging Tomorrow for What?
Why is it that the people that we elect to office just don’t get it? It seems like a brilliant plan: Let’s reward people who buy homes1 with money back if they buy in a specific time period—that’ll lower the cost of buying a house now, so more people will buy houses, and that’ll boost [...]
What To Do With an Old Used Car
It’s hard to know what to do with a car that you no longer have a use for. Some people attempt to sell theirs, only to find it is a hassle to deal with people coming to see it and they are unsure how to price it. Some try to trade their vehicle in toward [...]
We Must Do Something Now—Why?
On Tuesday night, President Obama urged the country to do something about slowing climate change. Why? Ann Althouse suggests: You see why this is absolutely necessary, don’t you? What if nothing is done and global warming… doesn’t happen? What a disaster! But if disastrously extreme measures are taken and then global warming doesn’t happen? What [...]
US Supreme Court on Religion and Marriage
We live in a very interesting time—a time when the very moral foundation of this country is being challenged. The general American feeling of “live and let live” has come directly up against a culture and morality that would have been foreign to the founders—and those very founders are being trotted out as accepting and [...]
Are Humans Inherently Good?
One of the most difficult things for me, as a Christian, to process is that there seem to be “good things” that people do apart from Christianity. Why is this a problem? Because the Bible states quite clearly that only those that are in Christ can do good. Rationally, this poses a problem. If the [...]
The More Things Change
It seems that my life is now coming around in ways that I wouldn’t have expected. Some of you know that a little over a year and a half ago I was let go from the company for which I had worked for 10 years, and that I found a different job an hour away. [...]
