We should be careful as to what the sources of our information are, we don't want to be party to another 'tea party' fiasco, The CRC has a proud history of being independent minded during the various waves of political hysteria that have characteris…

Seven myths about "green jobs"
Seven myths about "green jobs" Washington rhetoric about remaking the American economy with "green jobs" is growing. But does the idea really make sense? Not according to economic researchers Andrew Morriss, William Bogart, Andrew Dorchak, and Rog…

Bernard Hoogland commented on Paul Rhoda's blog post 'Generational Injustice'
Karl and Bob: perhaps you haven't been watching the same newscasts that I have such as the Jim Lehrer News Hour on PBS. It seems that even Democrats are voicing concerns that the red ink left for future generation to pay off is unethical. While ther…

Church/School/Organization:
Fellowship CRC, Grandville
Justice issues I'm interested in:
Economic freedom which promotes
...Human Dignity
...Religious Freedom
...Environmental Stewardship
...Prosperity and opportunity for all
About me:
I do not see gray. I am a black and white kind of guy. I serve a Lord who is the Way, the Truth and the Life. He is the only Way. Therefore, I believe in absolute Truth.

I believe that Christians are called to proclaim the Truth of the gospel to a dying and very confused world. I am appalled at how much of the modern church's thought is polluted by the sewage of the secular world.

Modern day Constantines who attempt to usher in Christ's kingdom via the sword of the state terrify me.

Administering the Medicine of Disapproval

“Replacing the mercy of disapproval with tolerance is replacing medicine with poison." (Robert Hart)

SELECTIVE TOLERANCE
A while back I told a friend that I was attending a local Anglican church. Unhesitatingly, he remarked, "Oh, you mean that homophobic church!" I’ve heard of similar experiences from others in our fellowship.

Putting an End to Global Warming Alarmism

Global warming is the most important environmental issue of our time. If those who are sounding the alarm about a possible climate catastrophe are right, then governments must raise energy costs directly, with taxes, or indirectly, wit… Continue

Generational Injustice

Now we understand what Obama meant when he campaigned as the candidate of “hope”. He will spend our grandchildren’s money, and we hope they can pay our bills.

The most painful lesson we have learned from the current financial mess is that excessive debt is dangerous. Obama’s “solution” is to astronomically increase the federal. His spending binge will add $30,000 of debt to each family in America. Senator McCain calls it “generational theft.” I call it “cradle robbing.”

With each passing day,… Continue

Disturbing Justice Department Nominees

President Obama continues to fill out his Cabinet and sub-Cabinet positions. These are the officials who really run the U.S. government.

Some of his Justice Department appointments are causing particular alarm among Christians.

The three top appointees—David Ogden, Thomas Perrelli, and Elena Kagan—are, in the words of Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council, “three of President Obama’s most objectionab… Continue

Censored

I find myself needing to begin a new post since my prior remarks by Dr. Balint Vaszonyi have been censored. Fortunately, I keep good records.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Might I request that those with concerns about this post actually read Dr. Vaszonyi's book, "America's 30 Years War", before censoring Dr. Vaszonyi’s remarks?

I submit that the disadvantaged in American society need personal redemption and salvation, not Social Justice or co… Continue

THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR drops the daily paper edition and goes online. It won't be the last newspaper to make this transition. (Instapundit)

For the next while, it will be primarily radio and Internet and the next generation of technology will likely be some sort of a blend - TV, radio and Internet, Blackberry, phone, etc. One thing is clear, newspapers are on their death beads, Did it to themselves, actually. I do not even miss them. Most other Americans agree with me and us.

Someone from Grand Rapids - a member of this Justice Seekers social networking site - pointed me to it. I thought it was an excellent case you presented.

I am one of those who does not subscribe to any printed newspaper. I have not done so since I canced a NYT Sunday subscription about eight years ago. I have read all my news online methods ever since.

I look forward to further dialog and discussion with you at this site. Thanks for joining.
