I am on the road again and staying in a hotel that is a true believer in CNN. The first three times I was in the lobby long enough to pay attention all I heard were repeated litanies about racism and white privilege. It was non-stop propaganda. After that it was one anti-Trump screed after another. It is no wonder that so many people are ignorant and never-Trump. It is the intellectual equivalent of living on Twinkies.
When my wife asked why the TV was on CNN she was told that it was the decision of the general manager. I wonder if he is a Democrat?
It gives me a good reason to read a book.

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.
