Hey guys. You know me: ordinarily if I share something that’s incorrect I’ll admit error, correct in the article, so everybody can see. However, today I shared this bit about the Michigan legislature passing an anti-anal sex bill. While there were some parts of it that were true, most of it was really stretched. Sadly, even some usually trustworthy sources picked it up too. Not only did I find that out, I had a typo in the headline saying 80,000... Read more
It’s been a busy week here in JT land. First I was on Unbelievers Radio talking about mental illness: Then I was on No Religion Required just having a grand old time: Read more
When I was younger I thought that I needed to comment every time a person was wrong on the internet. Those were the days when I really paid attention to what Dwight D. Longenecker of the Patheos Catholic channel had to say. I don’t do that anymore. Sometimes you just have to trust that most people will be able to see when somebody’s flagrantly full of shit, accept that there are a lot of slow people in the world, and... Read more
Texas has been trying as hard as it can to deny Syrian refugees, even though the federal government has decided to take a small number of them. They recently sued the federal government over this and, predictably, have lost: Texas hit a major setback on Monday after a federal judge rejected its efforts to block Syrian refugees from resettling in the Lone Star State. U.S. District Court Judge David Godbey of Dallas ruled on Monday that it was not up... Read more
Ok so the Barna Group, at the behest of Josh McDowell Ministries, has done a study on porn use and teens/young adults. It turns out that young people (big surprise) are more sexually liberated than the previous generation (just like with every generation before them): When they talk about pornography with friends, 90% of teens, and 96% of young adults say they do so in an either neutral, accepting, or encouraging way Only one in 20 young adults and one in 10...

I’m in the middle of working on my first post of the day while keeping my eye on twitter for anything developing. I saw a link to this video on ESPN that made me smile all over the place. It’s a high school basketball game where one team has an equipment manager with Down Syndrome. It’s Senior Night and he’s a senior, so they put him into the game. Toward the end he splashes a three pointer, which is smile-inducing... Read more

The other day Marco Rubio went on ABC News with host George Stephanopoulos. The topic turned to Rubio’s opposition to exceptions in anti-abortion measure in the case of rape. Stephanopoulos asked a very simple question of Rubio: “What do you say to that mom when you look her in the eye?” the ABC host wondered. And Rubio, with pretenses to showing how compassionate he is, gave about the coldest answer imaginable: “It’s a terrible situation,” Rubio replied. “I mean, a crisis... Read more
It should be noted before I get into this post that I would love to see a first female President. However, I support Bernie because I think he’d be a better leader. However, if Clinton gets the nomination (which I think she will), I’ll likely vote for her since she’ll then be the best realistically available candidate. But it all comes down to who I think the best candidate is. Even though I’d like to see a woman become President,... Read more
