My wife and I rented Knowing, a newly released (on DVD) movie with Nicolas Cage in it.  I have to admit I love end-of-the-world, science fiction movies.  Some of my favorites are Deep Impact, Independence Day and Core.
There is a scene in Knowing, where the professor character that Cage plays, explains two competing views of [...]

Recently, I was discussing how blogging and book-reading complement each other.  I find I read more theological books as a result of my blogging than I might otherwise.  Yet blogging does eat up time and keep me from reading as much as I’d like.  It’s more than just time, however.  Blogging gives me bits and [...]

Ah, how sad.  I was so hoping that the Georgia Bigfoot was the real McCoy.  Instead it’s just another hoax.

I’m not making this up! Check out this story from Fox News:
Bigfoot Trackers Say They’ve Got a Body
I’ve always been fascinated by the hunt for bigfoot. And I don’t buy the claim that modern science has everything figured out. We’ll have to wait for the news conference Friday, and the results from [...]

I came across a couple of articles which explore the myth of scientific “consensus” when it comes to global warming being primarily caused by man.
Dr. Klaus-Martin Schulte did some research in surveying all scientific papers published from 2004 to Feb. 2007 (the results will be published in Energy and Environment). Michael Asher of Daily [...]

351 footnotes will either make or brake a 100-page book. In this case, it is the footnotes (which document the many quotes) which make the book so interesting. The books full title is Reclaiming the Two Books of God: Restoring Moral Sanity to the Church. And the book’s author is Don Sailer.  Some of you might [...]

“It may seem strange that I am writing a review of The Space Trilogy, by C. [...]
