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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Denying Obvious Truth. What’s Up With That?

Monday, April 16th, 2007

Good day all, Henry here. I have a fossil in my waiting room from a family fossil hunting expedition 20 years ago. The local expert wrote on it the following. “Parrsboro Formation, May 8’87, 200 million year old, amphibian footprint, found East Bay Cumberland Co, N.S.”

After we had discovered or seen several hundred fossils, […]

Sun Worship Is Looking Good

Saturday, April 7th, 2007

Greetings all religious explorers, Steve here, I’ll be your spiritual guide today. Several days ago I posted about my idea that I should become a sun worshiper. Basically, my idea was that once you’ve spent a whole Winter in Vancouver and have gone without sunlight for, by my count 967 days, when you finally see […]

Tomb Of Jesus

Monday, March 19th, 2007

Greetings all, Henry here. The most religiously conservative people I have known are prison inmates. I was chaplain in a county jail for two years and have visited and worked a lot in federal penitentiaries. Why are inmates so conservative religiously?

Unfortunately, many people who end up in prison don’t have a lot of education, and […]

That Nagging Feeling That You’re Going To Die

Tuesday, March 13th, 2007

Henry here, thinking deep thoughts again. Sorry, sometimes I just can’t help it. Over and over again, life hits us with mystery. We may experience it standing at the top of a double black diamond ski run, or we may feel it with the first fall of snow, an opening flower, a bird, an exquisite […]

Mom’s Watching Out For Terror

Tuesday, August 29th, 2006

Henry here. Mother Terror

Mothers have a profound affect on us, but what do they have to do with this “war on terror?”

Many men cannot have comfortable sex with their wives because they have become “Mother” so they end up playing the extramarital field with people who don’t remind them of mother. This should not […]
