What in the World? Hating the World By Wanting Its Love
I posted some years ago, on social media, the following bit of wisdom- “Too often we train our children to make their way in the world. I want to train my children to make war on the world.” In the … Continue reading
Ask RC: Do Muslims and Christians worship the same God?

www.Don’tbelieveoldmebelievenewme.com: Shameless Waffling
There is a reason that Saint Augustine is considered the greatest mind the church produced in the first millennia after the ascension of Christ. The man was flat out brilliant, blazing theological trails like Daniel Boone. His writings continue to … Continue reading
Just Desserts: Fighting Envy and Guilt Manipulation
We are all all too comfortable affirming we are due what we are in fact not due. We are prone to confusing wants and rights. Some argue that every employee is owed a “living wage.” Whence came, however, such an … Continue reading
