You think your life involves an uphill climb.  Try this one.  Below is the Frio river deep in the heart of Texas.  I do not do these sorts of climbs any more.  Climbing up Mt. Zion or even Mt. Carmel is a piece of cake compared to this climb.  But I digress.  There are sure a lot of verses in the Scriptures about mountains and climbing them, even though the Holy Land has nothing like the Alps, and the largest... Read more

Am-Bushed Minding the flocks he had Not looking for surprise. He looked up And saw a bush, That blazed before his eyes.   Weirder still there was a voice That came from in this thing It caused him to draw close And hush It had a familiar ring,   ‘Moses I’m sending you Back from where you came, It’s time to free the slaves. Don’t think you can turn this down Excuses are quite lame.’   ‘ Who shall I... Read more

SHORTCOMINGS ‘A  frank response to Frank, who said, “regrets I’ve had a few, But far too few to mention… I did it my way” —- Shortcomings just like snowflakes, Are always piling up, A life time of the little things Filling up life’s cup.   Then some day, and in some way They have their full impact On family, friends or foes alike, Too late to then retract.   Too late to start anew that day Too late for quick... Read more

In the non-Christian catacombs in Rome there is a famous graffito (see above) ridiculing Christian belief in a crucified God.  Several points of importance need to be stressed: 1) clearly enough even outsiders in the first century and afterwards knew Jesus was crucified on a cross, not impaled on a stake. This is confirmed not only in the New Testament but also by Tacitus the Roman historian, and by this graffito;  2) the gist of this graffito is ridiculing the... Read more

There are many many caves and sinkholes in Kentucky.  Mammoth Cave is in Kentucky, and not far from there a giant sinkhole opened up and swallowed a whole bunch of vintage Corvettes at the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green. I even went to see the hole in the floor of the museum and see the car a good 30 down below the floor of the museum. Yikes!  So this recent story by Jeannie Moos (who is a veteran in dealing... Read more

With protests still going on all over the U.S. over the overturning of Roe v. Wade, one despairs of having a reasonable conversation about abortion in such a heated environment.   And there is no doubt that the issue is complex.   Many of the arguments both pro and con are specious.   For example, the notion that an unborn child is simply another part of a woman’s body and she should be able to do with it as she likes, as if... Read more
