My Request for Religious Exemption to the Vaccine Mandate
My employer falls under President Biden's blasphemous and tyrannical executive order, and they've told me that they will be enforcing it. Lovely. They have, however, allowed me to request religious exemption. They say they will need to evaluate it before they grant it. How gracious of them to allow me to ask their permission to … Continue reading My Request for Religious Exemption to the Vaccine Mandate
Thoughts on Texas’ Abortion Ban
Not Perfect, but I'll Take It. The best law would be a total ban on all abortions except to save the life of the mother. Total abolition purist cynics will say that this law makes abortion legal before 6 weeks. Realistically, though, this will be a near total ban on clinical abortions since most women … Continue reading Thoughts on Texas’ Abortion Ban
A Brief, Non-Scholarly Layman’s Analysis of the Debate over COVID Vaccines

Unfortunately yeah it does. As Question #8 of … Continue reading If Calvinism’s doctrine of Total Depravity is true, then why aren’t we all murderers?

I'll be honest, the "Facebook and Twitter are private companies so they can censor whoever/whatever they want" argument doesn't really sit right with my. A) they're not fully private. They receive government subsidies. B) Saying that the interactions on Facebook is taking place within the private property of Facebook feels to me to be making … Continue reading Rambling Thoughts on Big Tech Censorship
Romans 13:6-7

Romans 13:5
"Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God’s wrath but also for the sake of conscience."Romans 13:5 I'll be honest. This is probably the trickiest verse of the passage. What does it mean to be in subjection? Why is there a distinction between God's wrath and conscience? I find myself unable to … Continue reading Romans 13:5
