Captain Ed has some good commentary on the Gospel of Judas:
Gnosticism has always been a seductive force, and not just in Christianity. For some reason, a large percentage of people want to believe that real truth can never be easily understood. Humans appear to have a deep-seated need to be part of a secret, inner […]
Well, I read Dan Brown’s Angels and Demons (the book before The Da Vinci Code). Basically the story is a race against time to decipher historical clues and track down the Illuminati, who have stolen a significant amount of antimatter from CERN and planted it somewhere in the Vatican as a time bomb, while […]
MFH brought home The Da Vinci Code, on loan from his boss, but he wanted to read the preceding book first. So I read it. It was entertaining, but the theology was so horribly wrong that I suspect the author of being on the payroll of Satan’s Propaganda Department. Read the Old […]
Not from morning sickness, this time. Ilyka Damen is doing a “Blog Against the Strawfeminist” week. Whatever that means. Personally, I do most of my feminist-watching at Feminist Blogs, which I can skim through quickly without getting too riled up. There are plenty of examples there of feminists that are far-left, […]
I’ve been thinking about this passage a bit lately, especially with the recent anniversary of Roe v. Wade:
I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse; therefore choose life, that you and your descendants may live, loving the Lord your God, […]
…is to not have to do anything for it but go to church. I’m holiday-celebrationed out already.
1 Corinthians 12 says that the Body of Christ has many parts, and that all Christians have a place in it. I can’t help thinking that the writers at Slice of Laodicea must be somewhere in the frown lines. I do agree with them that the Gospel is the main message that Christians […]
I’m very pleased that the Ladies Against Feminism are actively posting articles again! Don’t miss this one, especially, which comments on some of the recent debates about feminism, including the infamous Linda Hirshman article (that I wrote about here):
Amazing, isn’t it? Echoes Vivian Gornick, who wrote 24 years ago, “Being a housewife is an […]
Two Talent Living has been running a Blogs of Beauty contest, to honor female bloggers who “bring beauty to the world of blogdom” (strongly slanted toward the Christian view of beauty). The lists of nominees and finalists are here. Voting runs until this evening, I think, but the best thing is to just […]
I found this article by Linda Hirshman through Joanne Jacobs, and it’s a real feminist stinker. It’s long, so you might as well go and read the whole thing first.
The blurb that goes with it is:
“Choice feminism” claims that staying home with the kids is just one more feminist option. Funny that most men […]
