I have a tendency at times to start noting coorelations between disparate matters. It may be that I am seeing things that aren’t really there, but I don’t think so. I have been accused of confusing correlation with causation before, and will try not to make that error, if indeed…

Ray Nickel
I just ran across something my mother wrote, I believe in 2009, for my uncle’s funeral. This is the same uncle who wrote A Hatched Egg And A Planted Potato and who I wrote about in my post The House Of Mourning And Of Feasting. Ray Nickel was the oldest…
AiG Roadtrip Day 2: The Ark Encounter
We got up bright and early on Thursday to go see the lifesize reproduction of the Ark of Noah. Much like the Creation Museum, you see a few signs to point you in the right direction, but when you get there, the entrance sign almost comes as a surprise. You…
AiG Roadtrip Day 1: The Creation Museum
We returned yesterday from a trip to northern Kentucky, just south of Cincinnati. Where have you heard that before? Well if you subscribe to the one-minute-per-day podcast of Ken Ham, he mentions the location of their facilities regularly. We had eleven in our group, including my parents and my sister…

2 Peter 3 This is now the second letter that I am writing to you, beloved. In both of them I am stirring up your sincere mind by way of reminder, that you should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through…
Testosterone

About last night
I realize I have not yet released my next installment in the study of “Supernatural” by Michael Heiser. Life happens, busy days come, you get it. I am no longer a “once a day” blogger, nor am I one that has an overriding need to remain in a theme until…
Uh… Jocko?
Call it a hunch, but I bet Jocko here has just as much reliable intel about the current situation in Ukraine as I do. Perhaps he understands the people involved better, but some of the insinuations that have come up are ones he likely is just as surprised by as…
The Book of Enoch
I wrote recently about how the book of Enoch contradicts the Bible. Here’s a pretty good summary about it: Why do I point this out in this category? Because Michael Heiser relies on the myths of Enoch, a book not even written by Enoch, for the foundation of his claims.…
Divine Rebellions: Part 2 “The Nephilim”
My original intent for this series was to take each chapter and write a blog post. I did not break this one into two posts because of its length or its extensive references. I did so because I was disappointed in the general lack of scholarship in the first part…
