Robert Mueller Testifying Recalls Oral Tradition Versus Written Tradition

Last updated on: June 28, 2019 at 7:12 pm By Kermit Zarley

U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller–a man of very high integrity, a decorated Viet Nam War hero, and a former Director of the FBI for about twelve years–has agreed this week to testify in open hearings on July 17th before two House committees about his findings in his so-called Mueller Report regarding his two-year investigation into possible Russian government meddling in our 2016 presidential election and President Donal Trump’s possible obstruction of that investigation. Mr. Mueller is a Republican who has... Read more

Talking About the Doctrine of the Trinity

As many people who read my blog know, I was a Trinitarian for twenty-two years. The church doctrine of the Trinity means that God is one essence existing as three co-equal and co-eternal Persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. I then read myself out of this in the Bible, entered into a deep investigation of the matter over the next 25+ years, and self-published a 600-page book about it in 2008 entitled The Restitution of...

Did Donald Trump Say He Is Glad John McCain Is Dead or also in Hell?

Last updated on: June 28, 2019 at 12:44 pm By Kermit Zarley

Today, President Donald Trump gave a rambling, one-hour plus speech to the Faith & Freedom Coalition. It’s supposedly a Christian organization that gets people to vote Republican. Trump even got theological in his speech. He mentioned the “war on Christmas” and insinuated that one of his political enemies, a man of his own political party, may be in hell. Trump also said he’s “very happy” that John McCain, a man of Trump’s Republican Party, is “gone.” This cannot be taken... Read more

Did Taylor University President Resign Due to Mike Pence?

Last updated on: June 25, 2019 at 2:33 pm By Kermit Zarley

Interdenominational Taylor University of Upland, Indiana, founded in 1846, is one of America’s oldest evangelical colleges. In 2017, U.S. News and World Report ranked it #1 among America’s Best Colleges in the Midwest Region, thus not only Christian colleges but secular colleges as well. Taylor’s student body is about 2,500. I’ve had friends who have graduated from Taylor University, and they have spoken highly of it. U.S. Vice President Mike Pence is an evangelical Christian from Indiana. He gave the... Read more

Trump-Kushner Peace Plan Will Be DOA Next Week

Last updated on: June 24, 2019 at 11:37 am By Kermit Zarley

As I have blogged before, the Trump-Kushner U.S. peace plan for solving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will be DOA–Dead On Arrival. It will happen next week at a conference in Bahrain. But neither the leadership of Israel nor Palestinians will attend. Israel was told to stay home, and Palestinian leaders are boycotting it. Some expected participants reportedly are getting cold feet about it. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said it “will not pass because it ends the Palestinian cause.” Most Arab heads...

Creep Trump BBB

Last updated on: June 22, 2019 at 6:55 pm By Kermit Zarley

BBB=Belongs Behind Bars. One more woman–making it twenty-two now–who has come forward alleging that Donald Trump, who is the president of the United States of America, sexually assaulted her many years ago, in this case it being rape. I cannot believe that such a creep occupies the White House instead of the Big House. E. Jean Carroll is not a porn star (Stormy Daniels) or a Playboy model (Karen McDougall), but a famous New York journalist and advice columnist. Her... Read more

Mitch McConnell Appears to Be a Racist and the USA Needs to Do Reparations

Last updated on: June 19, 2019 at 9:28 am By Kermit Zarley

Republican Mitch McConnell, the U.S. Senate Majority Leader, told reporters at a media conference yesterday regarding America’s history of slavery, “I don’t think reparations for something that happened 150 years ago, for whom none of us currently living are responsible, is a good idea.” McConnell gave three reasons for his assertion: civil war, civil rights legislation, and the election of a black as president–Barak Obama. Baloney, McConnell! That 150 years just shows how far overdue reparations is. I’ll give you an... Read more

Will Evangelicals Vote Even More for Trump in 2020?

Last updated on: June 19, 2019 at 1:03 pm By Kermit Zarley

The Pew Research Center claimed that 81 per cent of Evangelicals who voted in the last presidential election voted for Donald Trump. For many, it had to do with abortion, same-sex marriage, and and other social issues. I am sympathetic to that. But I don’t think that is worth putting somebody in White House like Donald Trump, who could forever ruin our democracy and our reputation in the world. Besides, a significant portion of the American electorate supports pro-choice and... Read more

“The Orlando Sentinel” Endorses “Anybody But Trump”

Last updated on: June 18, 2019 at 4:47 pm By Kermit Zarley

President Donald Trump launches his 2020 presidential reelection campaign tonight in Orlando, Florida. The main newspaper there, The Orlando Sentinel, came out a few days ago with an op-ed piece from its editorial board that begins, “We’re here to announce our endorsement for president in 2020, or, at least, who we’re not endorsing: Donald Trump. . . . After 2 1/2 years, we’ve seen enough. Enough of the chaos, the division, the schoolyard insults, the self-aggrandizement, the corruption, and especially... Read more

Trump Heights

Last updated on: June 17, 2019 at 5:40 pm By Kermit Zarley

Yesterday, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke at a special ceremony held in the Golan Heights. The purpose was the renaming of a tiny Jewish settlement there, previously named Bruchin. It has a population of only ten people. But Israel has plans to bring many Jewish settlers to this region. Netanyahu renamed Bruchin “Trump Heights” after his “great friend” Donald Trump. Bruchin was established thirty years ago. That was eight years after Israel had annexed the Golan Heights, in 1981.... Read more
