Post Election Depression
I’m already feeling the end of the 2008 campaign.
I miss it.
I love the debate,
the focus on issues of substance,
the spike in emotional energy,
the writings of Christians about socialism and the NT, and the wondering if Christians understand either.
Here’s an idea: Let’s start engaging in debate about 2012. Will Joe the Plumber run for president?

Long time readers will not be surprised by this inquiry. Having experienced paranormal activity including precognition and UFOs myself, I’m interested in fringe science. [Note: you'll notice the 6-fingered hand that symbolizes The Human Event 2009 --ht to IMN design guru Dean Sharp and his multi-faceted design service and idea studio sharpdesingonline.com -- is like the hand on the new series Fringe.]
I’m not expecting many to come out of the closet on this. But I’ve always thought that the Pacific Northwest was the perfect place to film the X-Files, if you know what I mean.
See you in the mystic…

The idea of fringe science has always jazzed me so I want it to work, but nothing yet.
See you in the mystic…

 I received a question from a friend in the Philippines. I’ve paraphrased his question below.
Alex,
Last week, I had a conversation with someone. While we were talking, he asked me if my insight was biblical.
I asked him, why does my insight have to be biblical? Isn’t that being fundamentalist? Continue reading »

The Age of Interconnectivity
A few years ago I suggested that postmodernism was on it’s last leg and projected that by 2020 it would be “history,” as they say. Continue reading »

Discussion Forum: The Future
The past is closed. It cannot be changed. The future, on the other hand, is open. It hasn’t been settled yet. In fact, there is no such thing as “the future.” There are only the futures (plural).
