How Did Adam Look?

“Question: How did Adam look? Answer: One thing’s almost certain: He wasn’t white… Most people in the West tend to think of Adam and Eve as having fair or white skin. If you think about it, if Adam and Eve had pale skin, you would not have dark-skinned people because they would not have the genes for producing dark skin. On the other hand, if Adam and Eve were dark-skinned, you would not have fair-skinned people as their genes would not have the ability to produce light-colored skin. Adam and Eve must have been mid-toned (perhaps mid-brown) in order for us to have all the shades of brown exhibited by humans on the earth today… In a sense we, as human beings, are all coming from the same stock. There’s really no basis for racism. There really should be brotherhood among men.” What they mean by “brotherhood” is that Scriptural prohibitions against adultery should be ignored. I’m in favor of hearing all scientific theories, but it appears to me that the scientists are ignoring some important Scriptural evidence in their rush to avoid being labeled “racists.” The verb form of the Hebrew word for Adam indicates a ruddy complexion and the appearance of turning flush or rosy. This is only possible for light-colored skin. Eve, taken from the same body, must have been the same color. The reason for pointing this out is that these same men will debate the meaning of the Hebrew word for “day” until the sun and moon both fizzle, and yet see how unimportant the meaning of the word Adam is to them if it points in a politically incorrect direction. I still don’t understand how the “fairer” genes could ever overcome the “darker” genes if Adam and Eve were dark-skinned. After all, there aren’t any redheads born in China. But regardless of Adam’s color or the number of angels who can dance on the head of a pin, the fact remains that God created the races according to His infinite wisdom and power, and only the most arrogant and disobedient man would presume to undo what God has done.

Hugh Ross does make a good point in that article about how science supports the “Noah bottleneck” in Scripture. Geneticists consistently see an earlier date for mitochondrial Eve than for Y-chromosomal Adam, and that’s because the male survivors of the Flood were more closely related than the female survivors of the Flood, just as the Bible says. So women today have “older” chromosomes than men. I guess you could say they carry more of the antediluvian world in their blood.

“In America’s past some who have boasted a high doctrine of Biblical inspiration have been associated with White Supremacist organizations and ideology. Hence we can draw the following conclusion: a high view of Scripture is a form of racism. As we heard repeatedly at General Convention, any reading of the Bible that can be called ‘literalist’ can also be called ‘racist.’ It’s now a simple equation.”

“When white people are writing white shows for white TV executives who have white viewers in mind, that?s not America. That?s Disgustica.” Translation: “White people are distasteful and disgusting. Groups of White people, even small groups, are pure evil, hateful, and absolutely unacceptable anymore. Everything White must be mixed with darkness to destroy it.”

Two cute little Jewish girls send a message to a Lebanese child.

The Rapture nuts are thrilled about Jewish terrorism. “Jews are butchering hundreds, and have got us on the brink of World War III, and they?re getting ‘glory bumps’ and writing ‘Oh happy day!’ They?re not sure if baby Muslims will be caught up in the air, though.” Dispensationalism is the most despicable foolishness in the history of the church. There’s a very good and short word for an ideology that encourages murder: sin. But how many Christians who are trying to bring about Armageddon as a precursor to global salvation have been charged with sin by their elders? How could they be? The elders are too busy searching for racists.

“Israel is doing the Lord?s work,” says the Jew-dominated National Review. That’s what Rush Limbaugh calls conservatism.

The mother of terrorism.

Ninety-five percent of all “Holocaust” survivors in Israel support the holocaust in Lebanon.

Over 500,000 out of 3.8 million Lebanese are now homeless.

Jews cause anti-Semitism. “Even as they?re destroying Lebanon, killing hundreds of innocent civilians in the name of ‘fighting terrorists,’ many Israelis, including Benjamin Netanyahu, are celebrating the anniversary of the day terrorist Jews blew up the King David Hotel, killing almost 100 people.”

Where are the Christians? The Bush Doctrine was that the world?s worst regimes will not be allowed to acquire the world?s worst weapons. Of course, the word “worst” is purely subjective.

President Bush isn’t put off by the NAACP’s group solidarity. Just as a reminder for you, in case you’re ever asked to speak to the NAACP, never say that Blacks fall short because of incompetence. Instead, say that slavery and years of discrimination continue to “wound” and “stain” America. The crowd will nod in agreement, and you might even be able to get away without being lynched.

“Malt liquor is made by white beer companies but only sold in black neighborhoods, and you don’t get suspicious?” asks Dick Gregory. “They put a thing in it called manganese, and once you get so much manganese in you, you will kill your momma, but they’ve got you believing that’s normal for you to act that way.”

The death of Johannesburg at the hands of Negroes. Every city inhabited by large numbers of Negroes turns to crap.

Black-on-Black crime is growing in Memphrica. “Jim Crow didn’t destroy us, racism didn’t destroy us, it is us destroying us.” It’s always a good idea to blame African barbarism on poverty so you’re not accused of racism. If poverty is the reason, that means it’s really our fault.

“Invariably forgotten in talk of the [Willie] Horton ?issue? is the boy Horton killed. Joey Fournier was just 17 on Oct. 26, 1974. He was working alone at a Mobil station in Lawrence when Horton and two accomplices drove up, flashed knives, and demanded money. Joey gave them everything he had?$276.37. Horton then stabbed him 19 times and stuffed him in a trash can. When he was found, there were only a few ounces of blood left in his body. His last words were, ‘Please don?t hurt me.’”

Pure madness.

How God destroys nations.

“An autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.” ~ Arnold Toynbee

“The Emancipation Proclamation caused a desertion crisis in the United States Army. At least 200,000 Northern soldiers deserted; another 120,000 evaded conscription; and another 90,000 Northern men fled to Canada to evade the draft, while thousands more hid in the mountains of central Pennsylvania ‘where they lay beyond the easy reach of enrolling officers.’” ~ Gary Gallagher, The Confederate War

The funniest line from Gods and Generals is when Colonel Chamberlain tells his brother to not call Negroes “darkies.” He says, “That’s a patronizing expression from which we must free ourselves.” If you think two Union officers ever had a conversation of this sort during the entire 19th century, you’re an idiot.

You’ll recall that Lewiston, Maine, an all-White town of 35,000, was suddenly deluged by more than 2,000 Somali refugees a few years ago. Plenty of ignorant egalitarian Christians encouraged it. I just got a message from a friend of mine there in “Little Mogadishu,” and he told me to Google “frozen pig’s head” to see what has transpired of late. Integration is hateful. Nothing good will come of it - only violence. If Colonel Chamberlain had been able to foresee this, I think he would have stayed at Bowdoin College.

A Canadian gets the vapors when she sees a Confederate flag for sale in her town.

A federal attorney tries to illegally shut down a Confederate Memorial Day service. The intolerance of the “tolerant” knows no bounds.

Superheroes used to be White. Now there is Hero, Muhammad X, and Hypno Hustler. See more Black superheroes.

Anthony Bradley is taking a group of men into the wilderness to get at their hearts. I thought missionaries eradicated cannibalism years ago.

I was saying how awful CCM (Contemporary Christian Music) was back in the day. It’s probably just as bad now, but I wouldn’t know. In the early eighties, despite a couple of shining moments, no one did it worse than Steve Taylor. Here?s the “anti-racist” intro to one of his most awful songs, We Don’t Need No Color Code. He was almost sued by Bob Jones over that one. Eventually, Taylor hit the big time by producing Sixpence None the Richer’s hit song, “Kiss Me.” Now he has the time and money to destroy what remains of Christendom, and the best way to do that, as everyone knows, is by directing movies. As I wrote on March 10, his first is called The Second Chance, starring Michael W. Smith. Bad writes: “It’s supposed to be wild, off the wall, incisive, unique, etc., just like Steve. But it turns out to be just another story about - surprise, surprise - racism. Michael W. Smith plays an uptight, self-centered, vain, rich White preacher, and some darkie plays the poor, oppressed black preacher who’s just trying to keep it real and challenges Smith’s church to ‘keep their damn money’ and instead get their sorry white butts down to the ghetto if they really love J-Dawg. And it turns out the elders of the White church are plotting a scheme to take advantage of the black church, so Smith and the black preacher bond and take on the real enemy, White people. And the black preacher doesn’t mind too much when Smith gets robbed in the ghetto. Real cutting edge stuff.”

Catherine Chesnutt is an openly pro-White, Christian composer and pianist. As C.S. Lewis would say, “A dem fine woman.”

“In a theocracy, therefore, God and His law rule. The state ceases to be the over-lord and ruler of man. God?s tax, the tithe, is used by godly men to create schools, hospitals, welfare agencies, counselors, and more. It provides, as it did in Scripture, for music and more. All the basic social financing, other than the head tax of Exodus 30:16, was provided for by tithes and offerings or gifts… Since none of the tithe agencies have any coercive power to collect funds, none can exist beyond their usual service to God and man. For the modern state, uselessness and corruption are no problem; they do not limit its power to collect more taxes. Indeed, the state increases its taxing power because it is more corrupt and more useless, because its growing bureaucracy demands it.” ~ RJ Rushdoony, who was called one of the greatest men of the 20th century at Doug Phillips’s White Supremacy History of the World Conference

Drink red wine to prevent Alzheimer’s. Okay, you baptists?

“Barbecue is very personal and communal and local.” That’s why Kinists salivate at the thought of it.

Spanish children as young as 10 will be taught in their state temples to accept sodomy.

“Profits from the Lord of the Rings film trilogy are being used to fund destructive human embryonic research…”

“Hey, it’s me, Jesus. Welcome to the Holy Roller Glossolalia Church for Dusky Brethren.” I’m envious of their subheading: “This site was created and inspired by God through the Power of the Holy Spirit.” The world’s first infallible website! That makes it a whole lot better than Badlands.

A Seattle man tried to sell his blackness on EBay, and EBay called it “hateful and discriminatory… sellers may not list items that promote or glorify hatred, violence, or racial intolerance.”

Oooh, baby, baby, where did your head go?

My four-year-old daughter was playing “wedding” with her dolls. I overheard her say, “Now I announce you husband and wife. You may spit the bride.”

Design out of the box

Last week, Yahoos from company headquarters were invited to lick lollipops that propelled crawling baby dolls, run their fingers through grass to control videos, and observe a virtual sheep market. These curiosities were all part of University Design Expo 2006, a program sponsored by Yahoo!’s User Experience & Design (UED) group and Yahoo! Research to encourage and stimulate out-of-the-box thinking.

We called on students from five universities around the world to propose some innovative design prototypes for future-facing social, mobile, and media experiences. Teams from leading graduate design programs at New York University, London’s Royal College of Art, UCLA, ESDI Graphic Design in Brazil, and California College of the Arts came to present their work. The result was a series of very unusual yet inspiring designs that illustrate future uses and user desires for technology services and devices ? some more far-out than others. Marveling right along with me were legends of the design world, including Don Norman, author of “The Design of Everyday Things,” and Peter Merholz from Adaptive Path, a premier user experience consulting company. Incidentally, he’s also the man said to have birthed the term “blog.”

The program is the brainchild of Joy Mountford, who recently joined Yahoo! as senior director of UED. She dreamed up the concept 17 years ago at Apple and then took the program with her to Interval Research, Microsoft, Mattel and now here. Joy estimates that about 1,800 students have participated since its inception.

In ?Edible Interface: The Lick Races? project, students embedded photo sensors into lollipops that were used as event triggers to race toy babies ? the faster I licked, the faster my doll crawled to the finish line. Another student created ?Feelers,? which allowed me to experience nature through the eyes, body, and mind of an insect via motion sensors embedded in fresh grass. Every time I touched the grass, a toy insect changed path and software sensing my touch chose different video and audio to play.

Other student projects included “(Geo) Phone Tag,” which allowed mobile phone users to leave and retrieve contextually relevant messages about points of interest in their vicinity. “Chatsum” gave users a way to chat with other people while looking at the same web page. The “Sheep Market” leveraged Amazon’s Mechanical Turk system to employ thousands of Internet workers and create a database of 10,000 sheep drawings that were bought and sold. “Deadends” used the online-map interface to trace dead-end streets in L.A. and let people email videos or photos of dead-end streets through their camera phones. Here’s a short video of some of these inspiring prototypes and check out the Flickr photo set.

After the tent came down, I had a chance to sit down with Joy to get her thoughts on the event, the status of design today, and the next generation of designers. Catch our conversation here.

I?m Dreaming of a Caucasian Solstice

Scorebored might be taking this poetry thing a bit too far. He’s turning into a beatnik:

But the good news is that Badonicus may fire his Uncle Rupert from the toupee business and hire Scorebored instead. That’s Rupert on the right. He is shown manning a Federal Vision booth at the recent Trinity Fest in Moscow, Idaho. As you can probably detect, Rupert was underwhelmed by Doug Wilson’s performance of Sweet Home Alabama, but Bad (on the left) is still rocking out to it.

Generals Lee and Taylor standing on the heights above Fredericksburg, Virginia, from the movie Gods and Generals:

Lee: "Did you know George Washington spent his boyhood not far from here? And across that river, he’s supposed to have thrown that silver dollar…"

Taylor: "…and cut down that cherry tree."

Lee: "That may be so, Mr. Taylor, but it has an even greater significance for me. It’s where I met my wife. That’s something these Yankees do not understand, will never understand. You see, these rivers and valleys and streams, and fields, even towns, they’re just markings on a map to those people in the war office in Washington. But to us, my goodness, they’re birthplaces and burial grounds. They’re battlefields where our ancestors fought. Places where you and I learned to walk, to talk, and to pray. Places where we made friendships and, oh yes, fell in love. They’re the incarnation of all our memories, Mr. Taylor, and all that we are. All that we are."

Lee’s great-granddaughter grovels before Jews, Blacks, and Indians.

Jews spreading holiday cheer.

In 1723 Maryland, "if any person shall hereafter within this province…deny our Savior Jesus Christ to be the Son of God, or shall deny the Holy Trinity, he shall, for the first offense, be fined and have his tongue bored; for the second, fined and have his head burned; for the third, put to death." Instant solution to the Jewish problem, just as neat and tidy as you please. This law remained in force until the adoption of the state constitution. I pray often that such laws are revived someday. Ask your pastor if he prays likewise. While you’re at it, ask him if he thinks David Irving should have been released from prison. If he says no to either question, I’m not sure why you think you belong to a Christian church.

The very worst thing about Rushdoony, according to Judeochristians. This is shocking news. Here I’ve been praising him to the skies for years, and who knew that he was an "incompetent, racist headcase"?

Three questions: "1) Show us one single document that, in your view, proves that Hitler or any other National-Socialist ordered and planned the physical extermination of the Jews; 2) Show us that weapon of mass destruction which, as alleged, was a gas chamber; show us a single one of them, at Auschwitz or elsewhere; and if, by chance, you claim that you cannot show us any because, according to you, the Germans destroyed the ‘murder weapon,’ provide us at least with a technical drawing representing one of those slaughterhouses which, as you say, the Germans destroyed and explain to us how that weapon with such a fabulous killing performance had been able to work without bringing on the death of either those who ran it or their helpers; 3) Explain to us how you have arrived at your figure of six million victims."

Apparently, Don Imus isn’t all bad. I’ve faxed the same two words to Abe Foxman myself. But who hasn’t?

Rupert Murdoch runs one of the most tasteless and vulgar companies imaginable, but one word is strictly off-limits.

This quote from Thomas Jefferson seems to work equally well for Soviets or Jews (or am I being redundant?): "They are then, in fact, the corps of sappers and miners, steadily working to undermine the independent rights of the States, and to consolidate all power in the hands of that government in which they have so important a freehold estate. But it is not by the consolidation, or concentration of powers, but by their distribution, that good government is effected… Were we directed from Washington when to sow, and when to reap, we should soon want bread."

"We are not unified. We never have been, and we never will be… What is truly miraculous is when a people, despite their cultural, racial, and religious differences, can treat one another lawfully. They don’t steal, defraud, kill, or mistreat one another. They respect their borders and do not impose their ideals upon another. However, this doesn’t mean we have to be ‘unified’ as some massive nation." ~ Chris Ortiz

President Bush, the Compassionate Conservative, says a lesbian will make a "fine mom." I’m glad Rush Limbaugh is working hard to fight liberalism.

That’s just perfect.

"We need darker friends."

"[T]hey cannot be made accustomed to men, nor tamed even when captured as babies." ~ Julius Caesar on interracial adoption, De Bello Gallico, 4.28.4

The Chinese are making it more difficult for their children to be stolen by White race-mixers.

"Hell will freeze over and the devil will be on ice skates before the South will ever support a mixed-race liberal Democrat for President. There are still a lot of people down here who believe that miscegenation (which, like abortion, used to be a crime) remains immoral and sinful. Add to that Obama’s al-Qaeda-sounding name, and it’s plain that he has no chance of being elected President." ~ from Time Magazine last month

Rick Warren, "America’s Pastor," considers a baby-killer to be of "good character."

Here are some pictures of Obama and the unstable people who fornicated him into existence. Could it be mercury poisoning that possesses White women to do this?

A Jewess by the name of Paula Rothenberg is asked by Paula Zahn if she, "as a white person," is intimidated by the fear of offending Negroes. In the midst of raving imbecility, including the statement that "no black person would lynch, rape, castrate, or murder," Jared Taylor makes some good points, as always: "In effect, black people have told white people: Here is a word you may not use. We can use it, if we like, but you better not use it. And how have whites responded? They have said: Yes, sir, we will not use this word. And, now, whites are the ones who are very careful about what they say. They can’t risk offending blacks. They can’t use a two-syllable word, for fear of losing their jobs. What does this tell us, despite the fact that blacks can use words like ‘cracker’ and ‘honky’? I won’t be thrown off the set if I use those words. They can use those words like that with impunity? What does that say, really, about the racial power relationship in the United States?… I think the notion that whites somehow benefit from white skin privilege because of the presence of non-whites is crazy. That suggests, if non-whites suddenly disappeared, whites would be shooting themselves because they couldn’t enjoy this privilege anymore."

I for one am outraged that a seminary professor and World Magazine journalist has used The Nigger Word. The utterance of that word is demeaning to every African-American in this country, and it treats their struggle for freedom and equality under the law as profane. That’s why I never let it escape my lips unless I know a good nigger joke.

Rap music about raping women is fine but shouting "Turn off the nigger music!" is strictly prohibited.

Rape charges have been dropped in the Duke case, just as we suspected. It was not because we believed that a few White college drunkards could not possibly have been guilty, but merely because it was improbable. That didn’t stop Negroes from salivating over what Tom Wolfe calls Great White Defendants. Anthony Bradley even went on Fox News and wrote this article. "What is desperately needed is a hero to emerge from Duke’s lacrosse team, one who is committed to justice and human dignity, to make what may be the toughest decision of his life—that is, to tell the truth." Turns out they were telling the truth about the rape, but I wouldn’t hold your breath waiting for Negroes to apologize for their slander.

"Ours is one continued struggle against degradation sought to be inflicted upon us by the European, who desires to degrade us to the level of the raw Kaffir [Negro], whose occupation is hunting and whose sole ambition is to collect a certain number of cattle to buy a wife with, and then pass his life in indolence and nakedness." ~ Mahatma Ghandi

"Africa is not peopled by Black Europeans, but it is a continent full of tribes mentally and morally at the dawn of history… The true equation is ‘democracy’ = government by world financiers [meaning Jews]." ~ J.R.R. Tolkien

"As a pretended celebration of Betty Crocker’s 75th anniversary, General Mills is going to select 75 real women who are residents of the United States, photograph them, and then digitally ‘morph’ them into one composite face, which will become the new Betty Crocker. As anyone with even a cursory knowledge of computer software knows, this ‘morphing’ process can yield almost any result desired by the computer operator and will not necessarily result in a statistical average of the input images. And what will the computer operator be looking for? According to the Wall Street Journal, ‘Since the contest is open to would-be Bettys of all races…the hybrid homemaker is likely to emerge with more politically correct features.’"

A note from a friend:

While I am not fully comfortable with Kinism, I admit that its roots have been the norm throughout Western history. Recently I have been studying the life and thought of Abraham Kuyper. Kuyper longed for the revival of an explicitly and specifically Dutch volk. While he ultimately compromised his ideal with notions of “pluralism,” it is interesting to note that he was simultaneously interested in a thoroughly “Dutch” Dutch society. Consider the following from a leading Kuyper interpreter:

Kuyper’s appeal to the conscience of the nation…has direct parallels to contemporary American conservative Christian political analysts who insist that liberty and genuine diversity can only exist by staying true to a national mythology… Though freedom of conscience requires that no one be coerced to act contrary to his or her convictions…the government acts in a self-destructive manner when, in the name of diversity and pluralism or multiculturalism, it actively promotes religious beliefs or ideologies that have as their basic premise the denial of free, public exercise.

John Bolt, A Free Church, A Holy Nation, p. 346

Of course, John Bolt, a pluralist, wants to leave the door open as to which religions are part of “that nation’s heritage.” Historically, it can only be reformed Christian theism that saves the day. But it is interesting, as the whole book points out, that Kuyper sought: 1) A Dutch national mythology for the sake of a 2) Unified Dutch people… Of course, the Netherlands rapidly departed from Kuyper. Kuyper’s worldview could not last. He advocated both the Kingship of Christ (good) and “common-grace” (bad). Common grace won the day and now look at the Netherlands.

College professors will soon be color-coded and assessed on "cultural competency." It sure does take a lot of work and layers of bureaucracy to enforce the religion of Equality, doesn’t it?

Like some other litigious pastors we’ve mentioned, Hank Hanegraaff is now suing left and right, as though 1 Corinthians 6 doesn’t exist. But that’s okay, because he’s The Bible Answer Man. Someone posted this comment: "Wow, first Ligoneir [sic] now the Bible Answer Man? I can’t keep up with all these preachers who ignore biblical teachings."

You can’t turn left in northern Virginia without bumping into an Episcopalian. Many Episcopalians these days would rather be ruled by Negroes than fags. Apparently, leaving an apostate church is not an option for them. "’The votes today have compromised these discussions and have created Nigerian congregations occupying Episcopal churches. This is not the future of the Episcopal Church envisioned by our forebears.’ He said the meeting Monday will ‘consider the full range of pastoral, canonical and legal obligations of the church and our responsibilities to those faithful Episcopalians in these congregations who do not choose to associate with the Church of Nigeria.’" The racists!

Broken nail? Jesus can help!

I hate Emergent wackos.

Get your ticket to heaven here. It will also get you free admission to the Christmas circus.

Jesus the Baby Carrot.

"A June 2006 Barna Report says that in a typical week, 9 percent of U.S. adults attend house churches – up from one percent in 1996 – and that 70 million U.S. adults have had some experience with a house church."

This is the point at which I bore my readers by discussing theology. What follows is of interest to me, but I admit that it pales in significance to the more immediate trouble we face as a nation. Dishonest Doug Wilson linked to the audio of the examination of Steve Wilkins by his PCA presbytery. The significance of this event is that Wilkins is the only major proponent of Federal Vision theology that belongs to the organization that grew out of the old Southern Presbyterian Church. Though Wilkins is confused on race issues, he has been an asset to the South, and I have great admiration for him. He has already been condemned as a heretic by one presbytery, and it is unclear how his own presbytery or the PCA will rule.

I’ve believed for a long time that confusion will continue to swirl around FV theology until everyone can arrive at an understanding of how terms should be defined. If you listen to the audio, you’ll find that the most common criticism is that Wilkins is confusing and uses words in a different sense or a different context than they are commonly understood. His qualification of words seldom does much good. You will witness that even very well-educated, seminary-trained men who have studied the Bible and the Westminster Confession of Faith for years have great difficulty in understanding exactly what FV theology means. I’m not sure I understand it either, but I sympathize with much of what Wilkins says, especially when he points out that the WCF calls the children of believers Christians from the womb. Baptism is how those children become members of the church, and they are made eligible for membership because of their birth.

One of the questioners surprised me by denying that baptism confers grace. He said it was his understanding that baptism unites us to the church but faith unites us to Christ. I’m glad someone showed him that even he is not in accord with the confession on that point. The WCF calls baptism a "saving grace," and the Larger Catechism refers to the "grace of baptism." Again, this can be confusing, but Wilkins defines grace as favor. It is not the same as mercy. And in that sense (three words which he is chastised for using so frequently), the reprobate do partake of grace when they belong to the church.

But here’s where it gets dicey. According to Wilkins, those who fall away are granted "temporary faith" for a time, which is not the same thing as persevering faith. He even goes so far as to say that this temporary faith is real faith because no man can call Jesus Lord except by the Spirit. This leads to the reprobate experiencing a "quasi-salvation." It seems to me that he’s on very shaky ground here. But consider what the Scriptures say about the reprobate denying the master who bought them, and that Israel was a redeemed people, all of whom were baptized into Moses. Wilkins himself uses arresting metaphors to prove his point, such as that an unfaithful husband cannot be both unfaithful and not a husband. There are also the parables of the branches of the grapevine and olive tree being cut off. Another example that occurred to me, though I don’t know if anyone else has considered it, is the hand that is cut off for causing offense. No one could deny that the hand experienced for a time a vital union with the body, yet it was not destined to persevere. When Wilkins said that pereverance is synergistic, yet always a gift, he found agreement in the room.

But I think he was at his weakest when he argued that there is not an "invisible" church now except in the mind of God. He said the invisible church will not exist until all the elect are gathered in heaven. He was told that this contradicts the present communion of the elect.

In short, it’s a very complicated matter, and it’s made all the more confusing because everyone is looking to the WCF to be the final authority on how words are defined, even though the WCF does not actually define words like regeneration. It will be interesting to see whether Wilkins is officially labeled a heretic. Terms such as "temporary faith" and "quasi-salvation" are disturbing. Likewise, Wilson refers to temporal regeneration, which Mark Horne defines as different from ordinary regeneration in duration. Quite disturbing, but I would hate to see this decided as the result of miscommunication.

Dishonest Doug Wilson is lobbying against any decisions being made by the good-old-boys in smoke-filled rooms, and I agree with him. But the reason I agree with him is that I’m consistent, and he is not. As Kevin Johnson points out, Wilson loves scrutiny of everyone’s actions but his own. "I remember Wilson arguing all day long about how [the RC Sproul Jr scandal] was a matter that didn’t need the scrutiny of the public Christian eye and to bring it to light publicly only further scandalized the matter… More Idahoan hypocrisy at work. Plain and simple. I challenge Wilson to bring the light of day to his own affairs in Moscow and around the country as he works at Christ Church, in and among the CREC, and elsewhere before he calls others on the carpet for the very same thing." Kevin is absolutely correct that, these days, "getting a fair ecclesiastical trial is like thinking the lottery is a wise investment vehicle for your entire paycheck." He is also correct that Wilson is the poster boy for the failures of fractured Protestant denominationalism, seeing as how his so-called presbyterian church has "never handled anything like this before, and operat[es] with the sort of scant by-laws and constitution that only encourage ministerial irresponsibility and the worst sort of cronyism. The CREC cannot pretend that she is the final court of appeal on this and other matters but these things must also be handled appropriately in the public square within the context of the Church at large." Not that this is surprising when we recall that Wilson’s cult-of-personality was formed by mutiny against his baptist elders. I guess the end justifies the means, huh? Ministerial irresponsibility and cronyism are never surprising among unordained and unaccountable peddlers of justice and honor. I also appreciate Johnson’s reminder that the Apostle Paul exhorts the local church, not her elders, to discipline the man committing incest in 1 Cor 5. Just think of what this means.

David McCrory noticed something I hadn’t: that Wilkins once affirmed that all the benefits of Christ are imputed to the baptized person, regardless of decretal status, yet now he says only some benefits are conferred. That appears to be a change for the better.

Look at all the free seminary courses offered here. They mostly look good, but here’s one on Black churches. It’s unintentionally funny in a few places, such as when the professor says George Whitefield is not a hero today because he supported slavery. We also learn that Blacks had secret places where they could shout, and whenever they were able they left the White churches and formed their own "emergent" churches. How racist and exclusivist. Still, we need to be forgiving because the Most Reverend Doctor King had not yet been born. Blacks "wanted to have their own pastors and their own churches and go their own way." The reason I know this must be racist is because I’ve been called a racist many times for desiring the same thing, and as we all know, pastors are far too logical to fall for double standards.

Would you believe that the latest version of Microsoft’s desktop operating system can’t run the latest version of Microsoft’s database? Could the Apple owners try not to laugh too hard?

I loved lawn darts when I was a lad. "Lawn darts were massive weighted spears. You threw them. They stuck where they landed. If they happened to land in your skull, well, then you should have moved." Before my time there was Nuclear War in a Box. Back in the good old days, little girls could buy Barbie dolls that gave them "scratched corneas and temporary blindness, mild concussions, broken ribs and teeth, and facial lacerations that required stitches." Ah, sweet memories of youth. The warmth of gunpowder on the nether regions. If this 30 inch Johnny Reb cannon gives mothers the vapors, you might want to know that Jefferson Davis’s wild son had one like it that was completely authentic. One day, General Lee was in Richmond to report to the President. While Lee was standing in the yard, the boy shot him, catching his pant leg on fire. The General kindly informed the President that his son would make a fine soldier. They’ll tell you all about it if you visit the Confederate White House in Richmond.

I still like Mexican jumping beans, and here’s a site that sells them. They used to be in stores, but I haven’t seen them since I was shorter.

I’m surprised that my driveway didn’t make this list.

The puerile Ed Sebesta has discovered neo-Alamoists, another dangerous hate group.

IQ test results are leveling out.

Let’s pause to reflect on all the ways in which our homeschooled children are deprived.

Brainwashed public school kids consider celebrities as the "very best thing in the world," and God comes in at tenth best.

Mohammed is now a more popular name than George in England and Wales.

Web-based animal sacrifice.

"The number of rapes in the Norwegian capital Oslo is six times as high as in New York City" because of Muslim immigration. But as we all know, the greatest danger to civilization is David Irving.

It’s interesting that Candour was founded by A.K. Chesterton, the cousin of G.K. Chesterton. Tolkien was a Candour reader, and you might not know it, but Candour did some very sympathetic articles on the thought-crime case of our Canadian friend, Malcolm Ross.

The sort of man who has nothing to say about the genocide of our people but plenty to say about hateful trees with blinking lights is a) a celebrity hairdresser; b) a near-sighted proctologist; or c) a PCA pastor. Well, I suppose that wasn’t a very hard question. "And I wonder how many of the neo-Puritans would frown and lecture a colored man if he wished them a Happy Kwaanza in the narthex of their heavily-mortgaged worship center? I say, ‘Merry Christmas,’ and may God bless my people, particularly those who are unashamed of their own blood."

Always remember: "Santa Claus" was a Christian. There’s a very pleasant legend that he punched the heretic Arius in the mouth at the Council of Nicaea. Tourists from Russia are not at all pleased that Muslims in the former Mira, Turkey, have removed the statue in the town square of Nicholas holding a Bible, and have replaced it with the secular, red-suited Santa, an image invented by Yankee Unitarians. I have a recording of Rushdoony saying, "I’m against Santa. He’s red." (Meaning Communist.)

"Speaking of holidays, yesterday President Bush delivered his annual Kwanzaa message… The President said, ‘Let’s always remember that Kwanzaa only exists because a guy named Kwan died for our sins.’" ~ Conan O’Brien

I remain happy with the quality of the shows - this one had a set at the beginning of part 2 that went from prog rock to weird chamber music to a cappella to power pop to new wave to solo piano. Just living up to the AOTP name.

Nostalgia Lane
Cynically Tested presents Nostalgia Lane a show reminding Baby Boomers how ridiculous their nostalgia industry is. This week host Duke Denver and co host hula hoop remember their favourite 60’s toy “Black Buddy”. Did you have one? Notes: Taping a video satire using something resembling Al Jolson the doll can be very awkward. Use your imaginations.
