The Know-It-All
Know-it-alls really bug me! All except for one, that is. Am I jealous? Possibly a bit. But the world has many, MANY, people who are much smarter than this average joe. So I really don’t believe jealousy is the issue. I don’t mind smart people, not at all. I can learn from people like that.…

World Peace? Is It Possible?
What do you think it would take to see true peace come to the Middle East? Or is it something we should just give up on? World Peace. Is it possible? Who has the answer? Do you? World peace. Seems impossible to some, and an easy fix for others. I guess it depends on your…

Reincarnation? Please!
Reincarnation: the idea or belief that people are born again with a different body after death. I’ve been a Christian for a lot of years; almost 39. I’ve never believed in reincarnation once I became born again, and still don’t. But every lie, for it to sell real well, needs to have an element of…

The brains of the outfit, Oliver Hardy, would smack his partner around while saying, “That’s another fine mess you’ve gotten us into, Stanley.” Watching those guys always put a smile on my face. What a pair. One who’s a bumbling…

Is Freethinking Free?
How much does it cost to be a freethinker? What is a freethinker? According to the dictionary, it’s a person who forms his or her own opinions about important subjects (such as religion and politics) instead of accepting what other people say. Is that even possible? Form your own opinion? Without anyone’s help or influence?…

Heaven’s Sound
“On the day of Pentecost all the believers were meeting together in one place. Suddenly, there was a sound from heaven like the roaring of a mighty windstorm, and it filled the house where they were sitting. Then, what looked like flames or tongues of fire appeared and settled on each of them. And everyone…

Go Into All The World And…Stereotype?
Ever hear the word – “stereotype“? People who use that word always act defensive; about nothing! Like… Whenever you see someone who’s dressed in dirty, raggedy clothes, hang on tight to your wallet or purse. Bums can’t be trusted. A person too lazy to shave doesn’t make a good employee. Don’t hire him. A person…
