Lie Upon Lie
It is my habit, when teaching my ethics students at the local community college to ask them this straightforward question- is it every ethical to tell a lie? The great majority of students affirm that there are circumstances where such … Continue reading

Rushing to Judgment
“If he’s guilty of even half of what he’s been accused of, people should run for their lives from him.” Ever heard that said of someone? Ever said it yourself? Here’s a much more biblical version, “If he’s guilty of … Continue reading

Aliens?
Yes. Of course yes. Who could doubt it? I don’t mean, either, illegal aliens, or undocumented visitors. I mean beings that are not human, that visit our planet, who snatch up people, who seek to seize control over the whole … Continue reading

A Message to My Unbelieving Readers
Though we don’t feel guilty about it, we are guilty of conflating our feelings of guilt with the reality of guilt. That is, perhaps because we live in a therapeutic culture, or perhaps because we live in a relativistic culture, … Continue reading

Last Things Last?
“Last things last,” that’s what I used to say. It seemed to me that there were plenty of difficult theological issues for us to wade through without having to worry about the end times. We all agree, after all, that … Continue reading

The Grace of Scandal
That principle of hermeneutics I have been seeking to teach the world can be quite helpful. It affirms “Whenever you see someone in the Bible doing something really, really stupid, do not say to yourself, ‘How can he be so … Continue reading
