    Lets talk about the current big news story. Let me start off by saying that I feel sorry for both the citizens of Ukraine and the citizens of Russia. This war is causing devastation to both groups, although I am sure the Ukraine citizens have it worse. Russia’s war against Ukraine is getting a lot…

    This week we have a guest post. This post is from someone who has recently studied at the seminary, and felt he had something to add to my topic. He has a couple blogs of his own that I find are very good. You can visit his baking blog at http://raisingdoughblog.com/ and his poetry blog…

    As more and more truth comes out, it is time now that we stamp out the divisive rhetoric of COVID misinformation. The CDC and media has worked hard to shame people and cause division. The more the truth comes out, the more we can see that the division was unjustified. But too many people are…

    The church needs to be Bi-Polar. Not to the extreme that we think of with that term. Everyone should have emotions, up days and down days, it only becomes unhealthy when the emotions are out of control. But it can also be unhealthy when you just have the same emotions day in and day out.…

    I see articles all the time saying that we must get rid of COVID misinformation. And I couldn’t agree with the concept more. COVID misinformation is hurting our ability to fight the effects of this pandemic, and worse yet, it is corroding our readiness to handle the next issue that comes our way. We are…

    Where do we go from here? I see the Catholic church being pulled into 2 different directions. On the one side, you have people with an extreme hatred of sin, and a love of formality, pomp and circumstance. On the other, you have people willing to permit anything, with an informality of services. This split…

    In the area where I live, about the only places that one is actually expected to wear a mask is the Hospital and the churches. While many stores have mask required signs, when you go in you find that neither the customers nor the workers are wearing masks. I have gone to bars and restaurants,…

    I expect this will be my final blog discussing the vaccine and with it COVID-19. This will be a long post, as it will summarize several ideas, as well as present a few that have not been covered yet. I want to start off with vaccines being used to divide us. This is bad, for…

    Is it too late to turn this ship around? The CDC did it again. When forced, they admitted that they were holding important research data because they felt it would not play well with the message they wanted to get across. This particular data showed that vaccinated individuals were not as well protected as they…

    From a historical Perspective When you read the news today, you hear about how bad life is and how much is wrong with our society. But looking at the issues being brought up from a historical perspective, we might have a better appreciation of what we have. Let’s start by painting a picture of life…
