It’s happy Baptism Day to Petra An excellent girl etcetera A good witness by a daughter Who’s brought others to the water And delivered them from strife Bringing them that life Which comes from above. Got that kindness and love That warms the heart And helps others depart From the ways of the fool And […]

Kicked off the wrestling team for “vaping”? Yeah, not raping . . . V-A-P-I-N-G! Pretty dog-gone harsh and down-right cruel to us spectators. Why should we fans be punished for such a simple “offense”? Not to mention screwing over a kid’s wrestling scholarship opportunities. Any discipline for students who blaspheme or disrespect teachers in class? […]

So says some colorfully zealous scribbling on the fence of a residence on a well-traveled street which I pass as I stroll around my hometown streets in Wilmington. Hmm. Needs some clarification! (The Nazis called for peace among the Germans after they seized power. Context is important . . . Just sayin’ . . . […]

Sire of twelve and mothered eleven. (Anastasia died and went to heaven. In the womb she passed away, But we will see her on that day When we join with her and the redeemed After passing through many rough streams.) Jayne endured through many-a trial, Aware that she was bought by His blood. She pressed […]

The church was to be ruled by elders Not a pastor, don’t you see? ‘Twas always a better way To avoid, you know, a monarchy. You can see it throughout the scriptures, But it seems people pay them no mind. Rather make it all nice and easy To whine at one, the many, all the […]

Get With Today’s Problems! Interesting misguided zeal of some, referenced on my classical station (WGUC), who would purge the play list of some composers because (back in the day) they “expressed some racist views.” Hmm. What if we purged the airways -today- of any who expressed pro-abort views? (Might get rid of a lot of […]

Steve Szeghi An earth-worshiper, a.k.a. an “economics professor” at Wilmington College? He is an advocate of “social justice and the environment.” He is a co-author of Right Relationship: Building a Whole Earth Economy. Wonderful. But for many such folks, an important principle is missing: the Creator of that earth – which he errantly worships in […]

Won’t go to war against ex-utero bad guys, but are okay with all-out war on in innocent, helpless in utero folks! Well, what about that imago Dei thing? What’s up? Are humans (which begin, each one at conception) created in the image of God or not?!? Now there are times, contrary to Quaker doctrine, to […]

“Why should the devil have all The good music?” crooned Larry! He sang it out and made us merry! (Sayin’ “Amen” to that song! Where was contemporary Christian music? Nowhere to be found; Needed Gospel lyrics to that sound!) Got a station playin’ it fine “The Oasis”! ’tis called – 105.9. But then I got […]

You ain’t nothin’ but a “spam risk”! No! I don’t pick up that phone; You can take it and cram it right up That place where the sun don’t shine! Quit ringin’ my phone you fools! I got lots o’ things I’d rather do! Don’t need that noise, boys Or what you’re tryin’ to sell. […]
