Adages for the New Year
The old familiar adages just don't do it for me any more. For instance, consider "the early bird gets the worm." In this age of freelancing, premature ejaculation and peaking too early in one's career (by age 24) a more appropriate adage might be "The early bird dies earlier."
Another one that has been puzzling me lately is "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy wealthy and wise.' Sure it does if the woman is staying up late cleaning the house and taking care of the kids after wor ...

Afraid of dying? ... Afraid of living!
Over the years, I've heard many people voice their concerns of death and dying. It wasn't that they had any maladies that would cause them to die any time soon, but they were "afraid of their own immortality." The basic idea of death, or the potential of death, created a mind-numbing fear that, in some cases, forced them into isolation to avoid anything that could increase their chances of dying.

The ninth amendment: It's cool!!

Recently, Colorado passed a law banning participation in "toughperson" fighting competitions. This is wrong and unamerican. I believe the right to engage in consensual violence falls under the ninth amendment right to privacy. What makes the United States great is choice. Our government was founded on choice. The right to chose the words I speak; the right to chose the way I worship; the right to assemble peaceable and to question my government; and the right to chose to arm or not to arm my ...

Who Does A Conservative Vote For ?

Recently I received an email from a listener stating that President Bush was wrong for america, that although he fights terrorism he won't guard our borders. He further stated that the President cuts taxes, but spends worse than any liberal in history. The listener went on to say just because the President is better than any democrat doesn't make him good for the country.

Well ladies and gentelmen, herein lies the problem. Who do we conservatives vote for ?

Turn The Clock Back . . .
At the risk of starting the argument of all time, I feel compelled to point out that Americans today are simply not made of the same stern stuff as our ancestors.

You disagree? Please write and tell me honestly what you think your nearest neighbor would do if awakened at midnight by the warning, "The redcoats are coming!" Frankly, my next door neighbor is an active duty Marine, but tucking tail is the first thing that comes to mind. I certainly cannot imagine him handing a rifle to his wi ...

Should Felons Have Guns?
Let me duck down behind some cover here. Yes! I think that felons should be allowed to purchase - and carry - firearms.

I'm still down here. Are you finished with the rotten eggs and tomatoes? Okay, I'll stick my head back up.

Felons should be allowed to carry guns!

Before I continue, let me state clearly that I am no happier about armed robbers, murderers and rapists having firearms than you are.

9 Ways to Nurture Your Emotional Health
I think we need to break Chinese medicine's wisdom down into bite-sized, practical pieces. Though I think they are rather cliché and simplistic, the popular magazine style, "5 Tips to Make Your Life Perfect in 5 Minutes Without Lifting a Finger!" piques the curiosity, and gets in our heads. If we can pick up one useful thing, we've learned and can live better. On the other hand, it does no good to overwhelm people with something they can't digest or use.

Nine Ways to Nurture Your Emotion ...

Martin Luther Would Be Proud
Not again, thought Tom Parker. Not another homily about how we should embrace life from conception to natural death. Not another reminder that God is the Author of all life. Please don't warn us again about the evils of contraception and abortion. Is all this really necessary? Why does the Church feel this overwhelming need to invade our private lives?

Driving home from church, Tom complained to his wife Linda, "Don't these priests understand the harsh reality of living in today's world? ...
