Dancing... or drinking through life
I am not even sure that I know how to do a link anymore. I'm giving it a shot though so, three readers, please forgive me if I mess this up.
So Rod Dreher's sister is battling cancer. It is nasty. Their faith is extraordinary. Here's his latest post (I think)

Back...
I'm back here at JWalking after a bit of time because I just want someplace to record thoughts from time to time. I doubt that many of the thoughts will be political - there are plenty upon plenty of people offering their opinions on everything political and I doubt that I have much to add that will

Learning to tell a story
For the last ten months or so I've been engaged in a completely different world - the world of screenwriting. It began as a writing project - probably the 21st Century version of a yen to write the great American novel - a shot at a screenplay. I knew that I knew nothing about the art but was inspir

And just one more
I have, I think, just one more round of chemo left.
When I go through my pill popping regimen tomorrow morning it will be the last time for this particular round of drugs. Twenty-three rounds, it seems, is enough.
What comes next? We'll go back to what we did after the surgery. We'll watch and measu

They’ll get my prayers when they renounce their lies about God’s gay and lesbian children, and not a second sooner.

You ever think that they need prayers to get there?? Sheesh.

As sorry as I feel for anyone who loses a job and the stability it provides for their family, my sympathies are with the gay & lesbian families who will have to live with the consequences of the Colorado amendment that Haggard and New Life supported. (Ironically, the families of New Life’s fired workers will enjoy benefits they sought to deny to gay families. Working spouses will be able to carry their unemployed spouses on their own health insurance, for example.)If the folks at New Life ha made room for the possibility that gays and lesbian might life happy healthy lives in the context of their community — like perhaps supporting and encouraging committed monogamous relationships for gays & lesbians — there’d be a lot fewer guys like Haggard, a lot fewer families suffering, and a lot fewer people picking up the pieces when the facade falls.When you prefer or even require someone to be closeted and/or psychologically and spiritually tormented, you have only yourself to blame when something like this happens, because you made it inevitable. I feel sorry for New Life, because they brought this on themselves. But I feel sorrier for the people who have to live with the consequences of New Life’s beliefs and actions, even though they didn’t ask for them.

The satanic forces driving the sexual deviants desiring that Churches be broken to pieces over the homosexual issue are doing what they do. We are watching powers and principalies at work. I’m curious and curiouser how things are speeding up.Where homosexuality goes, the Churches suffer.
