I just watched the movie, “The Lovely Bones.” I think what I liked about it was that the pedophile gets his in the end, but not in the way we expect. It’s proof that vengeance is God’s to carry out. It may take longer than we’d like, and not be the same as we’d have done if it were up to us - but that ultimately there is justice in the universe.
For all the victims of pedophiles, child molesters, rapists, murderers and others, alive or dead - know that the …

This is one of my rare religious rants. If you are offended by talk of God or faith, stop reading right now.
I just read an editorial by Jeffrey T. Kuhner. Kuhner is a columnist at The Washington Times. I’d quote parts of the article here except if I did RightHaven would sue me for $75,000 claiming a copy right breach. It wouldn’t matter if I was quoting him under fair use at all, RightHaven sues just because they can and they’ve been fairly successful - even suing one man for …

The Epic Story Behind The Birth

If you are the average Christian, or have been exposed to the average Christian version of Christmas, and the birth and in the manager and Noah and the flood, your basic knowledge of God, the Bible and Christianity goes something like this:

Death and Dying

This has been a year of many deaths for me. Friends, an extended family member, former co-workers and others have died this year - some expected, some not, one this week and another last month. It’s hard, but it’s part of the cycle of life and death. None of us has a guarantee on tomorrow, or the next hour or the next day or minute. I’ve rescued several baby rabbits and a Blue Jay from the cats this week. And all of them have had another day or more they …
