Click here for a short article I recently wrote for the fine people at Jesus Radicals. I was thinking there was a point to it, but then I read it and realized that I may have imbibed too much Taoism of late. It may or may not be a good thing. Hard to say.
Nine Amish males were arrested near a town I, interestingly enough, recently fled. In the fine state of Kentucky (your whiskey makes me cry . . . I miss you), these nine punk rawkers said, “Take that, po po!” when the boys in blue demanded (for the sake of safety) that they place orange reflective […]
Click here to read a review of The Devil Wears Nada by The Christian Humanist. And/or . . . click here to read a review of The Devil Wears Nada by Jesus Radicals. Both are solid reviews, and I say that not because they are relatively positive (with stellar criticisms) but because they actually read […]
In an unprecedented move, Pat Robertson has declared it permissible to divorce your spouse if he or she has Alzheimer’s. Not only does this make old Patsy a horrible human being (right there with Stalin, Pinochet, and Barry Bonds), but a very poor reader of Christianity’s historical teachings on marriage.

His greatest piece of writing, however, is probably his flattering and completely non-hyperbolic endorsement of my recent book, Third Way Allegiance: Christian Witness in the […]
Chimps, children’s books, horny psychology professors, and shoddy theories in linguistics. It’s a recipe for disaster. The recent documentary Project Nim details the story of researchers attempting to discover whether or not a chimp can learn human language. Chimps, armadillos, aardvarks, and marmokrebs are not going to learn human language anymore than we are going […]
Bob Larson, self-proclaimed prophet and exorcist (who just happens to be the subject of one of my chapters in The Devil Wears Nada), has made it easy for you to discover whether or not you have a demon (as, apparently, it is not self-evident . . . yep, that could be rabies you’re dealing with). […]
This may well be the year of Satan. A number of books, films, and presidential candidates seem to suggest we have yet to give up on our fascination with Old Horny. Two of the ‘must have’ books of the year include Jeff Pugh’s The Devil’s Ink: Blog from the Basement Office, and my very own, The […]
