If you’ve ever taken a class covering dinosaurs, you know one of the theories about their disappearance is that some of them evolved into birds. But a close look at bird anatomy says differently. The respiratory system of birds is rather unique. Mammals, amphibians, and reptiles have a two-way lung system. When air is taken [...]

Unity–but at what cost?
I recently watched a Christian conference on a Christian station where a dynamic speaker with a military background urged Christians to get together and unite since we are facing some strong enemies coming against us at this time in history. He implied it was high time to set aside our differences and doctrines to rally [...]

Can the Quran be considered reliable?
If a Christian happens to find themselves in a discussion with a Muslim about who’s holy book is better, some Muslims will make the claim that since the Bible is older than the Koran, the Bible should be considered outdated. They argue that God gives updated revelations to men over time and that the Quran [...]

Playing both sides against the middle class
According to the popular cliche “If a dog bites you once, shame on the dog. If it bites you again, shame on you.” Well the dogs in Washington are trying to bite again with the back-and-forth over the President and Democrats trying to raise our debt ceiling. I have experienced a whole range of emotions [...]

Liberal media’s attacks on Michelle Bachmann
Hmmm…. So let me get this straight. (Yes, pun intended). ABC News (or shall I say ABC Skews?) paraded health professionals on their broadcast who claim that ministries like the one Michelle Bachmann’s husband are involved in are harmful to homosexuals for urging homosexuals to leave the lifestyle. I guess instead of urging homosexuals to [...]

How God’s plans can thwart an enemy’s curse
The circumstances surrounding Moses’ birth were very grim, but in the midst of all the negative things happening, God’s hand was still clearly visible in the affairs of men. The Hebrews, having sought shelter from famine in Canaan, came to Egypt when Jacob brought his whole family there toward the end of his life when [...]

What the newly-signed trucking agreement with Mexico means
Well, the news outlets have done it once again. While they had us preoccupied with the Casey Anthony case and other news, they barely, if at all, mentioned the U.S.-Mexico trucking agreement signed yesterday in Mexico City by US and Mexican officials. The agreement ends a standoff both sides have had since NAFTA took effect in [...]

Doubts demolished: more Bible errors resolved
In my previous post I tackled a few scriptures that are used to argue that the Bible is contradictory. If the enemies of the cross of Christ can find factual errors or contradictions in the infallible word of God, then they can argue that the Bible cannot be trusted to tell us the truth and that it [...]

Divinely doubleminded?: Bible contradictions debunked
A great number of well-educated secular academics find great pleasure in attacking God’s word to convert others, especially those with Christian backgrounds, to their atheist/agnostic mindset. One of their main tools is to highlight what seem to be contradictory or erroneous statements written in the Bible. But careful observation and research prove neither God nor [...]
