Kavanaugh: Washington Needs to Drain the Beer (Part 1 of 2)

Last updated on: October 4, 2018 at 5:40 pm By Kermit Zarley

In the Senate hearing last week involving Judge Brett Kavanaugh as nominee to the Supreme Court, he said the word “beer” a lot of times. It’s because Dr. Christine Blasey Ford had accused him of sexually assaulting her when they were teenagers at a house party drinking beer. Previous to the hearing, and afterwards, people who knew Kavanaugh back then have claimed that he was a heavy drinker of alcoholic beverages. Senators therefore questioned Kavanaugh about his beer drinking. Kavanaugh’s... Read more

Should Senator Jeff Flake Have Voted “No”?

Last updated on: October 1, 2018 at 9:09 pm By Kermit Zarley

That was a tough decision for our Arizona Senator Jeff Flake to make yesterday. As a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee in its hearing of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations of sexual assault by Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh, swing voter Flake decided to vote yes to move the decision out of committee to the Senate floor on one condition–that a one-week FBI investigation of the matter be taken immediately. The problem with that is that President Donald... Read more

Americans Lose Ryder Cup Again

Last updated on: October 1, 2018 at 9:07 am By Kermit Zarley

The USA used to have a lock on winning the Ryder Cup. However, it was a competition between the USA and the UK. Then, when I was on Tour, Jack Nicklaus suggest that they change to the competitor on the other side of the Atlantic to include all of Europe. It was a good idea, and it brought much more recognition to this event. But it didn’t take very long for Europe to start putting together quite a team, starting... Read more

Ford 100% VS. Juge Kavanaugh 0%

Last updated on: October 1, 2018 at 9:10 am By Kermit Zarley

Dr. Ford, a professor and psychology researcher, accused Judge Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct when she 15 years old and he 17, in which she thought he was going to rape her. The judge denied all of it. As an independent voter, that’s my assessment of the Senate Judiciary hearing yesterday: Dr. Ford was quite believable in her testimony, and Judge Kavanaugh was not. The Judge, being Republican, appeared quite politically partisan. He blamed the Clintons for getting “revenge” with this... Read more

Do Trinitarians Make the Bible Their Only Rule of Faith?

Last updated on: November 11, 2018 at 11:14 pm By Kermit Zarley

Trinitarians typically claim that they rely upon the Bible for their theology. I posted two days ago, “What Makes Christianity Christian?” This post begins, “Christian pastor and author Kevin DeYoung, senior pastor at Christ Covenant Church (I don’t know where), says of the doctrine of the Trinity, “If any doctrine makes Christianity Christian, then surely it is the doctrine of the Trinity. The three great ecumenical creeds–the Apostle’s Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed–are all structured around our... Read more

Tiger Woods Wins Again!!!

Last updated on: September 23, 2018 at 3:33 pm By Kermit Zarley

In one of the greatest comebacks in sports history, Tiger Woods won the PGA Tour Championship just now at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, Georgia, by two strokes over Billy Horschel, who came from well back to shoot 65. A few years ago, Tiger Woods, with 14 major championships wins, was headed toward beating Jack Nicklaus’ record of 18 major wins. Then all kinds of trouble hit the Tiger, including injuries, surgeries, and other problems that so derailed his... Read more

I Say Rename the GOP the GOB

Last updated on: September 23, 2018 at 10:01 am By Kermit Zarley

I am not a Democrat. I have voted almost all Republican all of my life. But I have blogged lately about how upset I am about how the Republican Party in recent years has changed for the worse, in my opinion. It is not only Donald Trump–he is a symptom. The Senate Judiciary Committee is about to vote on President Trump’s nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh for the empty seat on the Supreme Court. This is a really important decision... Read more

Tiger Leads the Tour Championship

Last updated on: September 22, 2018 at 11:40 pm By Kermit Zarley

Tiger Woods started the third round today tied for the lead in the PGA Tour Championship. He shot a 5-under par 65 at East Lake in Atlanta to end the day with a three stroke lead over Rory McIlroy and Justin Rose. Rose is the #1 golfer in World Ranking right now, which he just gained days ago. Yet Tiger held that ranking an astonishing 13 years until his slide downhill to mediocrity due to injuries, surgeries, and other problems... Read more

What Makes Christianity Christian?

Last updated on: November 23, 2018 at 11:00 am By Kermit Zarley

Christian pastor and author Kevin DeYoung, senior pastor at Christ Covenant Church (I don’t know where), says of the doctrine of the Trinity, “If any doctrine makes Christianity Christian, then surely it is the doctrine of the Trinity. The three great ecumenical creeds–the Apostle’s Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed–are all structured around our three-in-one God, underlying the essential importance of Trinitarian theology.” No way! I was a Trinitarian for 22 years. Then I saw the light in... Read more

Michael Servetus

Last updated on: November 23, 2018 at 11:01 am By Kermit Zarley

As author of The Restitution of Jesus Christ (2008), I used the pseudonym Servetus the Evangelical. I created it based on Michael Servetus. (This book is available at kermitzarley.com.) The following is an excerpt about him from my book: Michael Servetus That man was Michael Servetus (Sp. Miguel Serveto Conesa, 1511-1553).[1] Born in Villeneu[f]ve, Spain, to a devoted Catholic family of nobility, his father was a notary and his mother was a Jew. A child prodigy, he grew up in...
