Jeremiah, Paul, and Isaac Bachelors most classic! Give it up for those men of God! And make some noise for those ladies,Those singles who live for the Lord!May they serve Him whole hog, Not diverted by family duties, Able to honor the King with joy! Thank God for our single boy! 2105 on 2 May, […]

You got to flaunt that gray hair! It’s a sign of that wisdom you got. Don’t be colorin’ it out with that Brown, black or blondy look; You’re too old to look young! It’s that sagacity you want to boast, So spew forth those words of wisdom When the time is right to be heard. […]

‘Twas a time when a slaveholder was viewed by abolitionists as just another fellow citizen with contrary political beliefs. He was entitled to his opinion (for a season), though it was one which eventually could not be tolerated. Some opinions are not to be tolerated when they are carried out into the public arena. Slavery […]

No, those Yankees weren’t more sensitive to human rights and the personhood of black people than were folks of the South. Northerners were greedy to gain a better economic advantage over their Southern competitors who could do business cheaper by means of slave labor!

“Slavery” – a Southern man’s “choice” “Anti-Semitism” – A Hitlerian German’s “choice” “White Supremacy” – an evolutionary, naturalist racist’s “choice” “Abortion” – any “liberated” woman’s “choice” “Same-sex Relationship” – old-fashioned sodomy all churched-up as a “choice” or “orientation” Truth and Justice – the choice of the Biblical/historic Christian 15 April, 2023

Oh, That Grammar! (Those otherwise lovely and lively Christian songs that are undermined by bad grammar!) “The same power that” raised – not “rose” – “Jesus from the dead”! Oh, the song goads me on with my Grammar Police calling. Please! Get that bad grammar straightened out! A whole generation of Christian kids have had […]

“Ah,” said he to his lady,“We’ve both had lots of fun;You’ve been a hell of a harridan,But its time we bring it to an end.Ya know they got me and I’m goin’ to the pen,But wait for me, Dear, if you would;You know I’d be there if I could.” (Impersonal post-prison poetic pensiveness on a […]
