Roswell: the coverup begins all over again!
April 11th, 2011 | 1 Comment
Actually, it was the cosmic wet blanket known as Cognitive Discopants who burst my weather balloon. Not so much with the site he linked to (which made a couple of critical errors, IMO), but because in the comments of that page, I found a much more thorough debunking.

Roswell? Surely there’s more to this story!

Hottel, who was in charge of the Washington field office in 1950, reveals that a US air force investigator had stated that “three so-called flying saucers had been recovered in New Mexico”.
The investigator gave the information to a special agent, he said. The FBI has censored both the agent and the investigator’s identity. “They were described as being circular in shape with raised centers, approximately 50 feet in diameter,” said Hottel. “Each one was occupied by three bodies of human shape but only 3 feet tall,” he added.
The bodies were “dressed in a metallic cloth of a very fine texture. Each body was bandaged in a manner similar to the blackout suits used by speed flyers and test pilots.”

One Orthodox view of salvation
March 16th, 2011 | 5 Comments
In conjunction with the original post at Pithless Thoughts, Steven Robinson quotes Orthodox monastic Elder Paisios of the Holy Mountain:
The person that is struggling to the best of his abilities, who has no desire to live a disorderly life, but who, in the course of the struggle for faith and life, falls and rises again and again, God will never abandon. And if he has the slightest will not to grieve God, he will go to Paradise with his shoes on. The benevolent God will, surprisingly, push him into Paradise. God will insure that he take him at his best, in repentance. He may have to struggle all his life, but God will not abandon him; He will take him at his best possible time.
I know a few people who fit that description and would be assured to hear of this view!
How did I miss this holy smackdown?

Remember that infamous Larry King interview when Joel Osteen was cowed into acknowledging the possibility of inclusivism? In this video, Benny Hinn calls out Osteen as a coward, accusing him of being unbiblical and indicative of the problem with the Church in America.
I don’t even know where to begin. My irony meter is on tilt, so I guess I’ll just pull over and let you guys drive on this one!
Shortest commentary on the Westminster Shorter Catechism?
August 16th, 2010 | 3 Comments
“Man’s chief end is to glorify God and enjoy him forever.”
So begins the Westminster Shorter Catechism. Here’s George MacDonald:
“For my part, I wish the spiritual engineers who constructed it had, after laying the grandest foundation-stone that truth could afford them, glorified God by going no further.”

I have to admit that I would have thought this was pretty cool when I was young enough to want to color it.

There are a few related pictures at Jason Boyett’s site, which I’d never been to before today. Do check it out, along with his humorous comments.

(There’s one more really funny one you need to see at the original page.)
