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 2020-256: Headlines: A Warning Shot

I was reading a link from Rantingly, a news aggregate site, about a man who fired the first shot in the Kyle Rittenhouse case.  It was found at the Gateway Pundit.  If you watched the video of the incident there was a muzzle flash off to the side before Rittenhouse did any shooting.  It was natural for him to assume that he was being attacked.  Evidently the man who fired the shot has been identified and had admitted to firing “a warning shot” into the air.

I am wondering if this is a new pattern we are going to see.  You have someone on the fringes who decides to fire his gun at an opportune time to initiate violence and then they walk away.  If you are caught, the way this guy was, you face a small charge.  Meanwhile you have instigated a riot.

The Marxists in our midst have shown us that they are well trained, well organized and well supplied.  They know exactly what they are doing so don’t ever assume that something going on in front of you is a coincidence.  

Stay safe.

  1. Could well be--still doesn't excuse the rioters.

    1. I would have been willing to extend a bit of forgiveness at the first riot but by now they know the score.

      Grace and peace

Comments are welcome. Feel free to agree or disagree but keep it clean, courteous and short. I heard some shorthand on a podcast: TLDR, Too long, didn't read.
