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 2020-161: Headlines: After the Killer Hornets

The media never gets over their need to hype.  One headline I saw talked about a giant cloud of African dust that is going to descend on our nation soon.  You got the feeling it was more dangerous than the China Virus.  It probably is, which means not so much.  I had already read about it under another sensational headline and been informed about it by my You Tube watching wife.  The author of the article I read made the mistake of pointing out that this happens every year and can be predicted fairly accurately. 

But the gurus of the media tell us, “Fear!”  I guess the killer hornets didn’t do the trick.

  1. You must remember that the killer hornets were supposed to hit California first, so everyone was sort of cheering for them anyway.

    1. Maybe they found the welfare system so inviting that they never got any further.

      Grace and peace

Comments are welcome. Feel free to agree or disagree but keep it clean, courteous and short. I heard some shorthand on a podcast: TLDR, Too long, didn't read.
