Is The Bible Literally True?

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

Greetings all, Henry here. I’m writing this on Sunday, so I guess I’m having particularly “religious thoughts”. My wife and I recently got back from visiting our sons for two weeks in Vancouver. While there, I heard a local preacher declaring emphatically that we all had to take the Bible literally. What a strange thing […]

Your Own Worst Enemy?

Friday, June 22nd, 2007

Good day, Henry here. What do you make of the world in which the psalmist lived? I know, I know, you’ve been walking around all day wondering about the world of the guy who wrote the psalms. Well, humour me, I’m going somewhere with this. The psalmist, or the person or people who wrote the […]

Preparing For A Flood

Friday, June 22nd, 2007

Greetings all, Steve here today. We’ve been having a lot of flood problems in British Columbia, with several communities in danger and a number of people under evacuation notice, so I was interested to read about how the town of Hinton, New South Wales, Australia is handling their flooding problems.

The town has been cut […]

Paris - Born Again

Monday, June 18th, 2007

Good Monday to all, Henry here again. Apparently Paris Hilton’s crippling mystery disease has improved to the point where she was well enough to be returned to her cell, but the entire ordeal was not a waste of time: She has converted. She has been born again. For the second time. That was fast. It […]

Paris Hilton - Master Criminal

Friday, June 15th, 2007

Good day all, Henry here, I’ll be your content provider today. Years ago when the world felt like a much younger place, I was the director of Pastoral Care in recently constructed supposedly model county jail for two years.

In the jail, inmates would do almost anything to escape confinement. Even this “modern” jail was apparently […]

Creationist Museums

Tuesday, June 12th, 2007

Good day all, Henry here. In the last while, there have been reports of two creationist museums. They are based on what they conceive is the story of creation, where the time line for the world is collapsed to some 6,000 years. This interpretation of the Biblical story is based on the idea that the […]

Paris In Jail…Again

Friday, June 8th, 2007

Good day all, Steve here. Well, everyone has their troubles. Some of them get better, if we acknowledge and deal with them, some don’t. I used to have bad acne, but it’s got better. I actually didn’t do anything for that one, just waited a few years and it went away. Some problems are like […]

Paris In Jail

Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

Good day all, Henry here. Well, Paris The Heiress is in jail and some of her fans are upset. I gather from the news reports that they are not the only ones. She too appears to be upset, resentful and several other of the more popular negative emotions. She seems to believe that this is […]
