    It’s frustrating because we often don’t know what to do. It’s almost like the rule are constantly changing. Anybody remember the comic strip, Calvin and Hobbes?

    "Around the corner I have a friend, In this great city that has no end; Yet days go by, and weeks rush on, And before I know it a year is gone, And I never see my old friend's face, For life is a short and terrible race... Tomorrow, I say, I will call on Jim, Just to show that I'm thinking of him. ...read more

    That no one except God is perfect but we don’t want people to think we are “that bad.” We pose. We pretend. We put on our plastic masks. We go to “church.” I saw a commercial recently about a new type of veneer for your teeth that is supposed to be the best yet. What I thought was incredibly ...read more

    A PROBLEM WORTHY OF GOD Martin Luther says the fact that a moral and just God can let the guilty go unpunished is "a problem worthy of God."
