Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.

Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Opus 2011-172, Immortal Quotes: That’s the $64,000 question.

You don’t hear it much any more but occasionally someone will answer your question with the statement, “That’s the $64,000 question.”  I must admit the origin is not from my memory but it was explained to me.

One of the early game shows on TV was "The $64,000 Question."  It was like many of the shows we watch like "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader" and "Win Ben Stein’s Money."  It asked questions and when you got to the top it was worth $64,000.  That is not pocket change but to act like that amount would change your life dates it a bit.

Eventually it died out, but the idea is still morphing into new ways for the masses to spend their time.
