Pole Dancing for Jesus

You can’t make this shit up.  FOX News is keeping you abreast of the latest most important news.  Tonight, pole dancing for Jesus.  ’Cause it’s important.  And it’s Jesus.  Or something…

Good Christians Gamble and Don’t Pay Tax.

I had a funny thing happen a little while ago.  I’m taking a little vacation in Biloxi this week, mostly because I like free drinks and five dollar blackjack.  This evening, I was having dinner at one of the Casino buffets, and a group of good Jesus worshipers — twenty three of them, to be … Continue reading »

Are Christians Obeying Jesus?

Many of the self-described “rational Christians” I encounter tell me that the secret of the modern Christian’s success is following the words of Jesus.  You see, the Old Testament was the Old Covenant.  We are living under a new covenant.  The words of Jesus trump the words of Jesus nee Yahweh. Is it true?  Do … Continue reading »

Jesus Shoots His Mom

Seymour, Mo (Springfield News-Leader) — An enraged Seymour man shot his mother and tried to shoot his father Tuesday night after the couple refused to acknowledge their son as the reincarnated Jesus, Webster County Sheriff Roye Cole said. LINK Here’s a weird one for your Friday afternoon.  Combine combat duty in the Army, weird beliefs … Continue reading »

Skewed Religious Morality… Again.

Speaking of religion skewing our sense of morality… A law under consideration in South Dakota would expand the definition of “justifiable homicide” to include killings that are intended to prevent harm to a fetus—a move that could make it legal to kill doctors who perform abortions. The Republican-backed legislation, House Bill 1171, has passed out of … Continue reading »

Sacrifice 2.0

In my last article on sacrifice, I did some simple math to illustrate how incredibly minuscule was the inconvenience Jesus allegedly suffered on our behalf. I am told that Jesus is immortal.  Since there is no number I can represent that with, I decided to take a very large number instead.  I picked a trillion … Continue reading »

Erwin Lutzer: Jesus is the Only Way

Erwin Lutzer is the senior pastor at the Moody Church in Chicago.  He’s a disciple of Billy Graham — and for the record, he does quite a good imitation.  Last Friday night, he gave a speech entitled “Christ Among Other Gods:  Why Jesus is the Only Way to the Father.” After the service, I was … Continue reading »

Pardon

We have all sinned.  We all fail.  We hurt others, we hurt ourselves.  We hurt God. “If we spit in a baby’s face, that’s bad.  If we spit in a police officer’s face, that’s awful.  You see how the principle works?  The greater the authority, the worse the penalty for the offense.  So how much … Continue reading »

National Apologetics Conference Day One

Northside Baptist Church sits nestled in a generously broad, well manicured parcel of gated land on the north side of Charlotte.  Together with its gym and Christian school, it is hard to miss.  As I wound my way through the traffic circle and several parking lots, there were dozens of courteous helpers in bright neon … Continue reading »

Sacrifice

Pretty gruesome stuff, isn’t it?  Strapped to a log, nailed down for good measure.  Left to die in your own sweet time.  A few days ago I watched an episode of Louis on Hulu.  If you don’t know the show, you should check it out. This particular episode was interesting to me because I lived … Continue reading »
