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 2025-144: Election: 2026

It’s never too early to start looking towards the next election.  I don’t know if we have national conventions of the parties during midterms, but I would suggest that we start advocating a plank that would be very popular with a significant part of the population.  That would be doing away with daylight savings time.

I’ve heard people talk about the reasons for daylight savings time.  I’ve never paid enough attention to have a real opinion on those reasons, but I don’t think they’re good enough to balance the down sides.  In reading one post on the matter, the renewal a few years back was proposed by a Democrat, which really pretty much tells me all I need to know.

People fall into three categories I understand.  There are some people that think it’s a great idea.  I’ve never met any of them but there are possibly also decent Democrats out there somewhere, note that is possibly not probably.  Then you have a good number who never think about it and don’t really have an opinion.  The final group, where I’m at, feel like it is nothing but a waste of time and a pain in the whatever.

Maybe we could stick DOGE on the issue.  It certainly concerns efficiency.
