I wondered about posting this, but I am not fond of attacks on my character, and rarely will I let them go unchallenged. Hence responding to some comments made here. BG and MM like to have personal conversations. One of the topics they like to discuss is us. We won’t hide the fact that their […]
In my previous post on this subject I raised five points/questions for the author of Theology Archaeology to answer. Let’s see how he responded. My first point was ‘I challenge him to demonstrate exactly where I claim my view is the only one that matters.’ He did not address this at all. 0/1. Would the author […]
Also posted on The Coalition of the Brave. In my previous post on this subject, I asked the author of Theology Archaeology a few questions. Shall we see if he answered them in his reply, and whether his answers actually addressed the questions, or indeed anything I wrote? As before, where he has quoted me, […]
It is of no surprise to me that the author of Theology Archaeology responded quite rapidly to my defence of Jill Dennison. Let us see if he has any reasonable arguments to the ones I made. Also posted on The Coalition of the Brave. Our nemesis at Meerkat Musings has published another article critiquing our gun post. […]
Anyone who follows this blog, or my other blog, is acutely aware of my views on guns. I have no fondness for them and I have yet to be presented with an argument that makes me thing of them as useful tools, rather than deadly weapons. There is an obvious connection between the number of […]
The following is a response to some rather outrageous and deliberately disingenuous statements issued in response to a critique. I’ll leave it to the reader to determine who I am responding to, and why. Given his history of this, I intend this to be the last time I directly respond to this particular Evangelical. There […]
Today the prompt is ‘what is a cause you’re passionate about and why?‘ You could say I’m quite passionate about equality. On the Coalition of the Brave site I’ve had many a heated discussion with a number of people on the subject of LGBT rights, feminism and racism. I do not hide my disdain for […]
Time to visit (or should that be revisit?) the US Constitution, specifically the First Amendment and something referred to as the Establishment Clause. To quote from the link: The First Amendment’s Establishment Clause prohibits the government from making any law “respecting an establishment of religion.” This clause not only forbids the government from establishing an official religion, […]
Well, this is entertaining. TEWSNBN devoted a not-insignificant portion of his time to ‘responding’ to Bruce Gerencser and myself, over what I always believed to be one of Christianity’s most holy and important times of the year. I dare say Bruce copped more flak than I did, because Bruce (unlike myself) has a deep understanding […]
The obvious answer to that question is ‘yes’. Anyone can be wrong. We all make mistakes, we all reach flawed conclusions, it’s part of being human to err. However that doesn’t mean we throw the baby out with the bathwater. That is the desire of TEWSNBN, who has written not one but two posts entitled […]
In the not so distant future, I will have been blogging at Meerkat Musings for TEN years. That's sort of scary. I never set out to reach a milestone like that, but ten years on, Meerkat Musings feels like my home-on-the-web, so to speak. #BloggingCommunity
Now, this I find difficult. Of those I have tried, which admittedly is not many, I am rather fond of McDonald's fries, though Burger King's have grown on me.
Let me reiterate, this post is not suitable for work! However, it is perhaps not for the reasons you think (or hope!). I am no prude. I am a man of the world, and familiar with activities of an, um, personal nature. Let it also be said that if people wish to educate themselves about […]
