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 2024-014: Worthless Opinions

It occurred to me as I was driving along admiring some of the cars around me that it really doesn’t matter what I think of those machines.  I will never buy a new one.  And when it comes to buying an old one I’m looking for what’s most economical and reliable.  Looks and style are of little importance to me.  So why should a car manufacturer care what I think?

Extend that to fashions.  Not only do I have no sense of style, very few trendy clothes are made in my size.  I like your hat.  Do they make it in 7 3/4?  Do they make those cool shoes in 17?  Wide?

My opinions are of little value to the marketers.  My family for some reason doesn’t get this.  Where do I want to eat?  At home.  Sandwiches make my day.

I will still feel free to express what I think.  That is the main reason to do a blog.  If it is important to me I can express it.  If it strikes a cord in your mind, well and good.  If not, then maybe next time.
