Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

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 2015-7: Major League Sports Are Coming to Your Town

We are going to need to expand the NFL, NBA, NL, AL and MLS.

This is the result of an unscientific, random poll of middle school students who do not think they need an education.  They are all going to be professional athletes of some brand.  The world will bow down at their feet and call them All Star.

At least that is what they tell me.

The poll goes something like this:

“Get to work.”

“I don’t need an education.”

“Get out your book.”

“I don’t need an education.”

“You are going to fail.”

“I don’t need an education.”

“What makes you think you don’t need an education?”

“I am going to be a professional ________________.”  

With this many 13 year olds who are already ready to replace the current stars, my suggestion is that we expand all the leagues to make room for their talent.
