Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.

Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Opus 2013-12: Headlines: Hell Has Frozen Over

If you are old enough to remember the Cold War and the Communist threat, you are old enough to remember PravdaPravda was the official mouthpiece of the Communist Party masquerading as a newspaper.  It was kink of like the New York Times and the Democrats.  I was in for a bit of a surprise the other day.  I was checking out the headlines on Drudge.  What caught my eye was the word “Pravda” and an article about global warming.  It looked provocative so I checked it out.  The title was “Global warming, the tool of the West.”   It was too good to pass up. 

I was shocked.  It seemed like the newspaper was at last living up to its title.  I don’t speak Russian but I have been told that Pravda means “truth.”  The article started off like this:
“For years, the Elites of the West have cranked up the myth of Man Made Global Warming as a means first and foremost to control the lives and behaviors of their populations.”
You can read it yourself if you want.  It was spot on.  I understand that a certain place is now beginning to freeze over.

They also had an article about the right to bear arms.  It could have been written by the NRA.

What is happening here?

  1. Well, one frenchman is moving to Russia. I guess when 9,999 more do the same, it will be time for us to do likewise!

    1. Who would have ever thought to see the day we had to go to Russia to find true reporting!

      Grace and peace.

  2. I had to giggle when I read that Depardieu was moving to Russia. With his attitudes toward rape, he is going to try to rape a Russian girl, and she'll be ready. She'll break a vodka bottle and slit his throat. It may not be as rosy for him in Russia as he thinks. LOL

    1. Now that sounds more like the Russia that we know and love. Of course I can see why someone might prefer Russia to France.

      Grace and Peace.
