My commenting system has always been a bit of a hassle. I downloaded a free one and it was a spam magnet that often crashed my server. I bought one and the guy stopped doing updates to it—and it never really worked. I am currently testing one and I have to keep my eyes on the settings in the backend. So if you see a strange spinning wheel after you comment, wait five seconds then refresh the page to see if your comment is there. If it’s not—drop me an email. I would much appreciate it. Thank you kindly!

“How can It be wrong if God made me this way?” That was the quote from a recent Law and Order Special Victim’s Unit where a gay Christian young man realized that his pastor father had killed his lover. The young man was part of an extremist group of Christians who performed plays depicting sinners screaming and burning in hell. But his question got me thinking: was he on point?

God in the Dock Essays on Theology and Ethics Edited by Walter Hooper. I have placed it here for storage purposes since this section of my copy of the book is falling apart and as such I tried to keep as much of the original paragraph breaks, Brittish-isms and footnotes although I incorporated those into the text within brackets. I thought the essay spoke to Today particularly well. You can also see some of Lingimish’s comments

Airing dirty laundry is pretty nasty when your neighbors peek out the back window and see the stains and filth. But, for our own purposes, it helps get rid of the stench and hopefully, puts the stuff to light to expose how bad the stains are. In our Christian home we extol the virtues of Martin Luther and gloss over some of the other stuff he’s done or said chalking it up to age or uninformed. Here’s a quote from Martin Luther’s book "On the Jews and Their Lies" or rather Von den Juden und ihren Lügen which is outright wrong in it’s approach to the Jews and completely antithetical to Paul’s thinking. Forgive me for posting it, but this is for my records. The full book is

Jesus Christ is the preexistent Son of God who is both the creator of all things ({{John 1:1-3}}) and by whom all things are held together in place ({{Col 1:15-17}}) yet is also the one for whom all things were created ({{1 Cor 8:6}}; {{Rev 4:11}}). By His great power the heavens and earth were put in their place and by his might they will eventually be brought to a close ({{Heb 1:8-12}}). He is the firstborn, as in, the one of highest position of all creation.
