Posted on November 4, 2020 by RC

What is solo Christo?

Posted on October 26, 2020 by RC

What should I remember in the voting booth?

Posted on October 20, 2020 by RC

Ask RC- Was the Reformation necessary?

Posted on October 12, 2020 by RC

Yes. It may be easy to miss that truth when one considers all the seemingly random things that came together to bring the Reformation to pass. What if that thunderstorm had not re-routed Luther from law school to monkery? What … Continue reading →

What is the ad hominem fallacy?
