Spoil The Child? No really, the Bible DOES Command Spanking. Here’s What it says
Click for more in this series: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 Introduction I am probably going to get myself in a heap of trouble with this one, so I have to start with a disclaimer: I mean none of this personally. There that ought to about cover it. So I thought I would take a break from my … Continue reading Spoil The Child? No really, the Bible DOES Command Spanking. Here’s What it says

Legislate Morality?
I read these comments from Al Mohler on Facebook: "The argument for removing polygamy laws was simple: the state has no business legislating morality. But every legislature legislates morality. Every code of laws is a codex of morality. The law is itself inherently and inescapably moral, even irreducibly moral. The law can’t be anything other … Continue reading Legislate Morality?

Did Jesus Die for Klingons? – A Response
I read a rather silly article today, which discusses the question, "Suppose we find life on other planets. Did Jesus die for them too?" This really falls into the category of "How many angels can dance on the head of a pin." However, since the underlying implication seems to be that the existence of alien … Continue reading Did Jesus Die for Klingons? – A Response
Faith and Reason
Much has been said about the relationship between faith and reason. Many times faith and reason seem to be opposed. What is the Christian to do when faced with a claim that seems to have irrefutably evident reason behind it but contradicts the teachings of Scripture?
