In Defense of the Faith
I cannot recall a time when I ever really disbelieved in God. Reaching way back into the dim recesses, I thought of God as my “Big Friend” – I remember talking to Him from my earliest memories. As I grew older, I put God away, but I don’t think I ever doubted He was real.

Did you know there are hundreds of websites featuring jokes about the Garden of Eden? (''Why Eve? Like Adam was going to buy his own fig leaves or ask for directions?'') But the Garden was an unspeakable tragedy, not a joke. And at a magnitude that hit me fully only this week.

Coming Ice Age
May 10, 2012 - Prophecy - Signs
J.L. Robb
And if you believe that, I would like to sell you the London Bridge. But just 35 years ago, the coming ice age was the big concern. I was taking an oceanography course at N.C. State in 1973, and the ice age theory was getting government-granted all over the country.

Free money for the researchers, at our expense.

Anyone who has daughters knows the pains of when they first start becoming interested in boys. It’s like nothing else in the world matters. All of the sudden, their interest is in a certain boy. Morning, noon and night, that’s all they talk about. They talk on the phone constantly; or nowadays, communicate via text or Facebook. Blah, blah, blah, blah!
