Wednesday was Gabe’s one-year birthday, which he celebrated with most of the afternoon at home, half with Mommy and half with Daddy — and all with a fever that was too high for him to stay at daycare. When…

I found this today on a Starbucks cup of coffee, and wanted to share it with you.

The Way I See It #224

Darwinism’s impact on traditional social values has not been as benign as its advocates would like us to believe. Despite the efforts of its modern defenders to distance themselves from its baleful social consequences, Darwinism’s connection with eugenics, abortion, and racism is a matter of historical record. And the record is not pretty.

–Dr. Jonathan Wells, Biologist and author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to Darwinism and Intelligent Design.

I don’t know much about Dr. Wells, but this quote is absolutely dead on. I suppose that I will have to add this book to my ‘books to read’ list.

Well dear friends and faithful readers..I leave the country in six days. A lot of you have asked if I’ll be able to communicate or update while I’m gone and, to be honest, I have no idea. I know I’ll…

We got back about a week ago from our vacation in Hawaii and I think I am finally recovered from the jet lag. We were able to go with my wife’s family and stay on the North Shore of…

As some of you faithful readers know, I finished up with school in December and have since moved on to other things, like poverty and unsatisfying jobs. Anyway I’d like to take a few moments to give my last goodbyes…

After the Sunday evening service the church voted to call Bill Egerdahl to be our next pastor. He accepted the call. He is a pastor in West Virginia and so he won’t be here in Columbia until maybe July at the earliest. Needless to say the church is happy. There was a standing ovation when the announcement came that the vote had past. Then Pastor Egerdahl went to the pulpit to say a few words. He never did say a “yes” or a “no” so this one member of the church spoke out and shouted “is that a yes vote?!” There was a little rumble of laughter and then Pastor Egerdahl said “yes”. Then there was another round of applause.

One little incident:
After the business meeting for the vote began, the person in charged asked if there were any questions. One of the questions was “I want to join the church and I want to vote, can I join now?” So right in middle of the business meeting we has a lady join the church. Afterwards the whole church lined up to shake her hand along with Pastor and Mrs. Egerdahl.

So far I have taken 6 new member pictures. I have one more to catch up on but they didn’t want there picture taken with out their youngest daughter. Now their daughter-in-law is in a coma because of mixture of medicine. Please pray for her.

So here I am in L.A., lounging in my brother’s hotel room as Amy Winehouse serenades me over the speakers. She’s saying something about rehab right now. I am bored. Chris’s roommate Brandon suggested the abusurdity of that, being bored…

If we were meant to
Know each other only in China
And our branches
Never again scrape against the same window,
Or even if they do,
I want you to remember
Us floating with the moon on the South China Sea.
