So today (actually it’s now 1 a.m., so I guess yesterday) has been an eventful day at Liberty University. I was very surprised to see Mike Huckabee and Stephen Baldwin speak in convocation!
Had I known beforehand, It would have made getting out of bed a lot easier. These convocation things can be a bore and [...]

Baldwin and Huckabee make a visit to Lynchburg!
Should we legalize marijuana?
Lately there has been a great deal of buzz on the Internet about the possibility of legalizing marijuana in the United States.
I must admit that my initial reaction as a conservative Christian was reflexive; legalizing marijuana would be a very bad thing. It’s clear with the continual use of any sort of addictive drug, that [...]
Shakespeare’s genius
This morning, my Intro to Communications Theory professor gave an excellent lecture and then showed us a clip from Kenneth Branagh’s screen adaptation of Shakespeare’s “Henry V” … just for the heck of it. It was completely un-related to anything he said in the lecture. Lol. Love that guy.
Here is the clip that he showed, [...]
A common ground for Calvinism and Arminianism
I would like to re-address what I said in my post yesterday, because it is foggy to me and most likely anyone who would read it. There were many strong side-steps, but the main proposition – which is the equating of Adam with the new-born believer is a bit shaky.
Although Adam must have had a [...]
‘What were you thinking Adam!’
I had a thought today.
What made Adam take a bite out of that apple (if it was an apple)? What was so compelling about a piece of fruit that would cause him to disobey God and effectively destroy the perfect relationship he had with God?
It just doesn’t make any sense to me. There were tons [...]
How to report spyware/adware and other forms of malicious software
In regard to the title, this post is very inconcise. If you want to quickly learn how to report malaware, scroll down to the last two paragraphs.
I find it Ironic that just a week ago I posted ways to prevent spyware, and last night my PC got infected from downloading and installing simple screen capturing [...]
Is reality a ’state of mind’?
So I came across an article today on a science blog, written by a well-known theoretical physicist named Bernard d’Espagnat.
From what I understand, quantum mechanics is an attempt to understand particles at a sub-atomic level; meaning anything smaller than an atom. In his article, d’Edpagnat makes this claim:
What quantum mechanics tells us, I believe, is [...]
Spring is in the air
So yesterday was a beautiful day in Lynchburg, and from the look of my window, today seems to be shaping up to nothing short of absolutely gorgeous! It feels like spring is in the air; a much different feel than previous weeks. It was so nice yesterday to come out of class and see the [...]
Thoughts on media communication & interpretation
I saw “Yes Man” yesterday and I must say—I was very impressed. Jim Carrey captured his role perfectly, and once again proved himself to be the master of faces. I have noticed from Jim Carrey’s acting that he has mastered non-verbal communication, mostly from the use of facial posture. Of course his script, pronunciation and [...]
Breaks over … again
Another break has flown by. What did I do this week? Hmm … I couldn’t tell you, but I would like to think it was somewhat constructive. I am not looking forward to going back to school, but I guess 2 more months is no biggie.
Man where is all of my time going? I am [...]
