I don't normally see a great deal of traffic on this blog, but a recent keyword analysis of the few search-engine hits I have been getting lately has begun to present a fascinating pattern-- especially since this is the only post I've ever written on preterism. Perhaps it's time for some more discussion on the matter. Maybe I'll try to fit something into my bar-study breaks.

All Ends of the Earth

All ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the LORD,
and all the families of the nations shall worship before you.
For kingship belongs to the LORD, and he rules over the nations
Ps. 22:27

No, It Isn't.

Good for the Soul

"I Galileo, in the seventieth year of my age, on my knees before your Eminences, having before my eyes, and touching with my own hands, the Holy Scriptures, abjure, curse, and detest the error of the Earth's movement."

June 28, 1633

Open your mouth for the mute,
for the rights of all who are destitute.
Open your mouth, judge righteously,
defend the rights of the poor and needy.
Pr. 31:8-9

Schindler Recap

Main points per Danny's request:

1. Terri Schiavo was a living human soul who was unjustly and barbarically put to death by the state on the basis of a standard of evidence lower than that enjoyed by mass murderers and by a means that would be criminal if used upon an animal.

2. The tolerance of abortion in this country has facilitated a more pervasive culture of death which has already led to legally sanctioned euthanasia and which, if unchecked, will produce even more horrific results.

3. The inclusion of food and water in the definition of "extraordinary care" and the absolutely arbitrary and non-medical diagnosis of "persistent vegetative state" are annually allowing thousands of cognitively disabled people in this country to be starved and dehydrated to death.

4. Somebody has to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.

It was a very moving presentation.
