Comment on LA SIERRA: Four resign after recording emerges by Wesley Kime.
Where have I been! Cocooned in a cruise ship to Alaska, is where, and they charged extra for WiFi, and it was expensive enough already.
So I just now got the news: Messrs Kaatz, Beach, Bradley, and Darnell, and Weiner have all been self-e-exposed and resigned, Weiner taking, er, longer to do it. But never mind Weiner.
An award is surely due Spectrum for its investigative journalism and courageous leakage of everything but the GPS data, but that would have been a felony in California, as is, we are told, Luke 12:3 (look it up).
But seriously, what was spoken into the ear of a Smartphone and shouted on the housetops is but an aliquot of sessions at our more enlightened centers, medical and academic, both in private, where the bonhomie of a band of brothers overflows (more chardonnay, anyone?) if not biblical brotherly love despite the calls for it, and at “contemporary issues†Sabbath School Classes (more lemonade?), with less badmouthing of the system and more of doctrines (“you still believe the Investigative Judgment? I feel sorry for youâ€), the message being as bald as the televised sermon is bland. How do I know? How does a refried bean know a burrito? Didn’t occur to me to record anything.
Thus our shaking time could have been ushered in not with a blog bang after all but with an uncertainly intelligible MP3 whimper, forthwith deleted from the web if not heavenly records.
More Châteauneuf-du-Pape, anyone, as in the days of Noah?

Dr. Walter Veith and the anti-vaccine arguments of Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche
Informative and stimulating, but proceeding into more confusion. A veteran of Moderna vaccinations, I trust, hope, they are effective, at least until otherwise. The whole business, being part of End Times, is in the hands of God, not humans expert and as degreed as they may be.
Brilliant and Beautiful, but Wrong
Brilliant, beautiful, and so right! Speaking of your presentation at LLU recently. Great to see you and your family (especially my namesake, Wes. God bless! WK
Complex Organisms are Degenerating – Rapidly
@Bob Helm: Dr. Sanford is very familiar to most of us. He was invited to speak at LLU several years ago and I and a great many were privileged to hear him.
Evolution from Space?
Hats off yet again to Sean for pursuing this topic as a scientist should, no nonsense, and in it’s proper setting — as a revival of one of the ancient ideas recently upgraded as a desperate alternative to the increasingly compelling intelligent design data. I had occasion to review panspermia a few years ago and as is my wont I found it more amusing than scientific. If you would like what was intended to be a satirical response to panspermia and other related curiosities you could check out: http://www.iessaythere.com/black-hole-humor.html
Meantime, Sean’s article is of far more cogent worth.
The Sabbath and the Covenants (Old vs. New)
As he has done on this site many times, Sean in his line-by-line-item response to C. White (not EG or EB) has, to my mind, clearly enunciated the issue and resolution.
When all the hermeneutics, quoting, and arguing and inordinately judgmental riposte are over, it comes down, as I understand it, to two things: 1) Whether the 7th day Sabbath (whether enunciated in the famous 10 commandments or otherwise) is still valid, and 2) Does the grace obtained by the vicarious sacrifice by the shedding of Christ’s blood or other divine process too deep for us to understand in this life, cover every sin automatically and without ado, altogether passively on our part, or is it only on condition that we first totally and deeply accept it? Other details always hassled forever are distractions.
I accept that I must accept it, wholly, actively, even with agony, with my whole being.
