Fake is not just for news any more. A recent headline at the Daily Wire highlighted some revelations about research into Alzheimers.
This trumpets the issue of fake science and fake research. We hear a lot about how we need to trust the science. If we don’t comply we are called _____________ deniers. Fill in the blank any way you want. The reason we are skeptical is because it is becoming common for research to be faked and no one bothers to check. This has been a problem for a long time but it takes something like this to bring it to the public’s attention.
Whether the public will remember tomorrow is another question. It is not just the elderly who have short memories.

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.

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.
