"I walk through this sinful world as a 
pilgrim in a foreign country" - CH Spurgeon
In the military I had a position that put me in an enviable to many people in uniform. My job was to account for every nuclear weapon on my Strategic Air Command base, and insure proper maintenance, storage, transportation, loading and unloading on aircraft in the proper sequence. It was a difficult and intense job, but it had it's perks, like having to tell commissioned officers what to do and on occasion pointing out their mistakes. Loudly. Nukes are serious stuff  and sometimes the a Staff Sergeant had to dress down a wayward Colonel on occasion, it was necessary for the safety and security of the most dangerous weapons every created by man.

I only mention this because we don't have that kind of fun in the civilian business world. Although there's quite a few VP's out there who desperately need a dressing down for their own good, But they take themselves too serious to realize that theiI find my fun elsewhere. Seeing the look on my bride's face when she discovered that I taught our 11 month old grand daughter to use the doggy door was seriously good entertainment. Take the world serious? Take myself serious? No, it's not going to happen any more. Serious is God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the commands They gave us. Corrupt politicians, this pathetic election cycle, the destruction of the family, persecution, world wide war... we knew it was coming, God told us it was going to happen. The very best we can do is delay the inevitable, and that's not happening. Take your bible serious and detach emotionally from this dying rock.

Stating the obvious

Recently the Mayor Nanny of New York City demanded a boycott of the Christian restaurant Chick-fil-A, Christians respond.

J.D., I can feel your exhaustion.

Normally when someone mentions Beyonce I think "Bouncy who?" No more. Warning: there are some articles that can't be unread. This is one of them.

More Roman Catholic idol worship


Biblical Armageddon prophecy is true because Mercury is passing in front of the sun!!! Using a skymap, astrology, and a passing nod to scripture The Prophetico channel on YouTube links something that happens every 7½ years to Armageddon. Also notice if you will, this article uses schmoop.com to doublecheck the few bible references. Remember Cliff Notes? Schmoop.com is like a low class version of that.

Religion of Peace Update #1 - Christian asylum-seekers in Germany are regularly bullied, beaten and forced to participate in Muslim prayer services

Religion of Peace Update #2 - Are muslims converting to Christianity faster than westerners converting to islam?

Here's a praise! And, as usual, expect the left to go crazy

Obama's legacy is going to be one of promoting molestation

Buddhist monks are preventing Christians in parts of Sri Lanka  from using public cemeteries to make them feel unwelcome in their own communities.

 American Christian missionary, Kenneth Bae, spent over 700 days as a captive of the North Korean communist regime

Evangelical white magic - is it worse than satanic black magic? Some great quotes in this article: TBN and Daystar "are outlets for selective truth" being one of my favorites

It's sad when a mind is so filled with hate that rational thought becomes impossible, it's also sad to think of a college professor who has never heard of the Marshall Plan

A priest who provided aid to North Korean defectors fleeing the oppressive country has been martyred by North Korean secret agents in northeast China.

It's true! I saw it on the internet!

  2. Hi Doug,

    Of all the hundreds of people I know in NYC, there is almost no one I could give that Chick-fil-A article to without irrevocably damaging the relationship. Dromm's prejudicial position as stated in the article is the only acceptable position in "enlightened" circles.

    The Harvard law professor you cited is sadly correct. We are already considered dangerous to "intelligent thought" and "basic freedoms". Many christian-like gospels - often those mixing law with gospel - say and do things that feed into the idea that "Christians are Nazis". Yes, this shows a profound misknowledge of history. But how many people really care?

    1. Being from Buffalo I can say without fear of contradiction that the rest of the state thinks that the 5 boroughs should be sold back to New Jersey... or where ever they came from. We're tired of supporting their lifestyle with our tax money.

    2. Yes.

      Today I saw a HUGE billboard on Houston Street near Broadway. It pictured a 20-something man in small underpants touching himself. His left arm was tattooed completely from shoulder to near the wrist. He looked like a savage. The "designer" is the same one who exploited Brooke Shields all those years ago.

      What led me to despair was not the billboard itself, as offensive as it was. It was a 20-something midwestern looking female standing in the middle of the street taking a kind of selfie of herself and the billboard. She'll bring back the filth to whatever small Ohio town she came from. "How cool," her friends will say.

      How lame.
