At least three basic paradigms for interpreting end times and apocalypse for world civilization exist in protestant Christian eschatology. I wonder how each might interact with the best present empirical end-times inducer: Global Warming? Not only must scientists and the shade tree mech. measure the parts per million of greenhouse gases and oceanographers the temperature…

I read part of a Presbyterian Theology publication with a minority report dissent to degeration into sin as renormalized hunkie dorrie policy on the homosexual marriage issue. In June 2014 the Presbyterian General Assembly approved a perversion of marriage act believing the Bible doesn’t indicate marriage is a sexual thing (meaning heterosexual reproduction) between two…

Plato‘s idea about a realm of forms where the originals of all things that exist provide patterns for all things that exist is an idea that many have forgotten about as it dropped off the radar screen of actual intellectual pursuits to a certain extent with the rise of scientific method. Yet the Higgs field and inferences about…

Public protests about white police officers that have had the misfortune to kill a subject resisting arrest have grown in recent months yet little has been said about ways to make it safer for police officers to arrest those resisting arrest with violence or the threat of violence. http://www.cnn.com/2014/12/05/justice/new-york-grand-jury-chokehold/ Police officers are not all world…

Gary Clifford Gibson Dec 5, 2014 A Commentary on Gentry’s ‘The Beast of the Revelation’ etc. Now we know only in part Gentry believes that the events of Revelation largely describe events during Nero’s reign leading to the destruction of the Temple in 70 A.D. Much of the prophecy concerns payback/correction to those that pierced…

Secretary of Defense Hagel resigned following the controversion by the President of U.S. immigration law changing the status of millions of illegal aliens in the U.S.A. to Obama-certified legal status. As a loyal Nebraskan veteran the former SecDef may have dissented from being a policy accomplice after-the-fact. Alternatively former SecDef Hagel may have wished to…

With quantum mechanics and uncertainty technically anything is possible including those configurations of quanta that seem miraculous. I think the word ‘miracle’ as a middle term or indirect referent object applicable in theory to a structured genre of event-processes is somewhat confusing and perhaps a source of doubt. Reason either inductive, deductive or a posteriori probably is…

It is wrong to undermine the positive resolution of the cold war with a nit-picking corporate desire to consume all of the Ukraine from the historically Russian patrimony. The U.S.A. too suffers from the schism with Russia toward a better democratic future with free enterprise-yet corporatism is prevalently collectivist after all primarily benefiting elites.  Plainly…

President Yobama growing tired of Republicans and unhappy with sweeping republicans victories in the recent congressional elections decided to rewrite U.S. immigration and decide for-himself who may be in the United States or be deported. As a lawyer able to decide what the meaning of is is better than Congress the President found adequate litigious…

Politicians often talk about infrastructure renewal in their campaign rhetoric. They say that the national infrastructure is in decay and need of repairs. It is true that many of the vast number of Herbert Hoover era public works are somewhat aged and that water pipes and electrical systems may be of venerable status while the…

It is amazing to consider that so many have misinterpreted the book of Revelation (of John the Disciple of Christ). Tim LaHaye, Hal Lindsey, Pat Robertson of Virginia Beach, Muhammad of Mecca and innumerable lunatics tattooed with the mark of the beast (666) as well as innumerable congregations full of saved evangelicals evidently got it…

Death chambers of execution could be more humane and hospice-like. It is somewhat remarkable that modern science filtered through politics bungles the chemistry of executing the death penalty. European chemical supply houses and other exotic sources of hard-to-find humane methods of killing killers sometimes embargo the lethal chemical cocktails from American legal death franchise establishments…

It seems unreasonable to expect much of R.G. III with the Redskins. If that politically incorrect name were to be changed to First People the team might get somewhere; though with a rookie coach it’s improbable. Few rookie coaches have won a Superbowl. Perhaps the First People could trade R.G. III to Oakland who can’t…

Setting parameters for a useful invention is fairly simple when it concerns something as practical as a human powered air compressor to pump air supply to a diver in the water at the end of a 20′ hose. Already existing are innumerable air pumps such as used for bicycles. There are gas an electric motor…

The value and role of the philosophical field of epistemology in interpreting, modeling and analyzing cognitive paradigms is a primary activity of education historically. That is epistemology or theory of knowledge began at least as early as Plato and his Academy and continued through classical education unto the present day. Epistemology casts a wide net…

It is difficult to guess how far 3-D printing will change manufacturing. A Wal-Mart or ABC Corp might locate a 3-D printer at a remote location in Alaska and a consumer could go on-line to buy a product that would instantly be produced without need for transport delays. There might be a lot of jobs…

Mexico’s internal criminal turmoil is largely a result of the existence of a porous border with the more-prosperous for the present nation to the north-the United States. The vast criminal underworld that flourishes on both sides of the border is fueled by drugs and human smuggling in turn fueling political corruption, civil disorder and the…

England has resumed its traditional role as an evil empire repressing democracy and stifling religious liberty. We had suspected that English leadership wished to find a practical new way to burn down Washington D.C. again, the method seems to be with forced aristocratic butch homosexuality. Elton John’s ‘Burn Down the Mission’ song lyric expresses the…
