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 2023-247: The Benefits of Bee Stings

One of the beneficial side effects of the Babylon Bee is that it is forcing us to reconsider everything we watch, listen to or read.  The humorless left is experiencing this because they don’t understand good satire.  They actually have fact checked the Bee.  That in itself is good for a belly based guffaw.  

Add to effective satire the old technologies of air brush or photoshop and the new potential of AI.  It is getting so that you don’t know what to believe any more.  I already know what not to believe:  Anything put out by the legacy media.  They lost contact with truth and reality long ago and are just polishing their evil minds as they campaign to destroy America.  I am learning to also have great caution when I read things from the self-proclaimed right.  They seem to feel since they are on the side of the angels that honesty is flexible.  

Sometimes we need to bump our heads multiple times in order to learn to duck.  We need to fall down a few stairs to accept that the hand rail is there for a reason.  There comes a day when the things that we used to eat with impunity begin to tell us we are merely human.  In the same way the Babylon Bee does  a yeoman’s job of keeping us on our toes.

Kudos.
