What in the world is holiness?
Imagine you are a great painter and you have an idea for your next masterpiece. You pull out your sketch book to record the idea, and it looks phenomenal. Next, you pull out your canvas, paint the backdrop and a rough outline. You work from back to front painting the simple colors, then the more…

Contemplating the Cosmos: The Fantastical Alien Worlds
“All my life I have wondered about the possibility of life elsewhere. What would it be like? Of what would it be made?”[1] It is easy to wonder, sitting on this cosmic shoreline and looking up into the universe, if there is any life out there whose intelligence might be similar to our own,…

Contemplating the Cosmos: Standing on the Shoreline
I stand outside and look at the stars with wonder, noting the great complexity of systems and the great emptiness within the cosmos that I have read about. To think that I look with wonder at the same universe that is observed by great thinkers like the late Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking. Yet…

On Insulting the Intelligence of Man…
From the roaring comments of those like Richard Dawkins and the Neo Atheists[1] to the great dissatisfaction we find in our pulpits, it seems as though in today’s society, the intellectual elite constantly insults the intelligence of his fellow man. While those like Dawkins find it necessary to attack maliciously the well thought out beliefs…

It Seems To Me
It seems to me that secular society has no reason to deny God as it does. After all, a tradition given to us by the philosophers of old, namely David Hume, suggests that things are the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. We judge the world today according to laws and phenomena that have always been,…
