All that's really important to know is that I love God, my family, writing, speaking, and Chinese food—in that order.

Friday/Saturday (07.29/30)
my freedom ends—no, wait, it doesn’t!
Years ago, the rule was “My freedom ends where your nose begins.” In other words,
I’m free to swing my arms—or a baseball bat—any where I’d like except
in your face. Unfortunately today, individuals' freedom goes well beyond society’s nose.

South Carolina new Promised Land?!
Did you see the ABC News piece Monday night on Christian Exodus?

Godspeed Discovery
Wishing the crew a safe liftoff, mission, and landing. (I'd love to join them: 0-1,000 MPH in 60 seconds,
a spectacular view out the office window, and best of all weightlessness—lose a ton of
weight without
diet and exercise.)

does God love some, hate others?
Here's an interesting response to my column on
truth and
grace:
|
God loves everyone? What do these mean?
"As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated" (Romans 9:13).
"The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity" (Psalm 5:5).
"The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God" (Psalm 9:17).

NASA computers discover Bible's lost day?!
It's back! The forwarded-forwarded-fowarded email about NASA computers confirming the biblical story
of the sun standing still to allow time for the Israelites to defeat the Amorites. Sorry, the NASA
story is an urban legend.
