    Faculty Reductions at BJU

    The "What In the World BJU" web site currently lists enrollment figures based on how many pictures there are in the "Vintage" yearbook: Freshman, 448, down by 36 from last year, smallest Freshman class in 20 years. Sophomore, 442, down 62 from last year. Junior, 374, down 11 from last year...

    Mrs. Hyles and the kids

    I totally agree. There is absolutely nothing wrong, in itself, with church leadership meeting in an amicable manner for an exit interview with members who are leaving. Such a meeting can be mutually beneficial for the congregation and for the member who is leaving. Some leaving members may...

    Happy Nakba!

    Commentary on the Nakba by Israeli Ashkenazi Jooooooish historian Ilan Pappe: "That the Palestinians were quite defenceless between 29 November 1947 (when the UN partition resolution was adopted) and 15 May 1948 (the day the mandate ended and units from neighbouring Arab states arrived to try...

    Do Movements Die?

    You can add to this list Akron Baptist Temple (almost defunct, no longer using the Baptist name, their massive sanctuary has been demolished). See David Cloud's commentary on that church - scroll down to page 2, "Desperate times for Independent Baptist churches:"...

    Tucker Carlson thinks nuclear technology was created by demons

    Okay, so Tucker said that the forces that developed nuclear technology "were not human forces obviously." So, does that mean that scientists such as Edward Teller, Enrico Fermi and Leo Szilard were not human? Lizard people, perhaps? Now here is the funny part. When these scientists were...

    Mrs. Hyles and the kids

    I am sympathetic to your desire that church members who had an unpleasant experience in an IFB church need not leave that general movement entirely. In many cases, it is possible for such members to find a soft landing in a more moderate, non-authoritarian IFB church, and many such churches do...

    Somebody tell me, how does this happen??

    And BJU ordained him? That doesn't sound kosher to me. I don't know if I can prove it from Scripture, but it has always been my understanding that only a local church can ordain a minister. I suppose BJU just makes up the rules as they go along. I also suppose that if BJU has the right to...

    Tucker Carlson thinks nuclear technology was created by demons

    All tuckered out - seems to me that Tucker is damaging his credibility in a number of ways, not only with his remarks about the demonic origin of nuclear technology, but now by his publishing a book by Russell Brand. The book is getting a lot of really bad reviews, and I don't think this galoot...

    Mrs. Hyles and the kids

    Years ago I left an abusive IFB church, but at the time, I felt that I needed to be a member of another church of the same doctrinal stand, so I joined another nearby church of that type. My previous pastor had all his preacher and missionary friends bombarding my new pastor with demands that I...

    Tucker Carlson thinks nuclear technology was created by demons

    Dialogue from the 1951 movie "The Thing From Another World" - the characters are debating whether or not to destroy the monstrous alien creature in a UFO that landed in Alaska, played by James Arness, before he can kill them all: Dr. Arthur Carrington: You're doing more than breaking army...

    Mrs. Hyles and the kids

    I had absolutely no idea about the history of Victory Baptist in Rowlett when I posted the funeral info about Mrs. Hyles. Why would anyone who lived through all the shenanigans at First Baptist of Hammond want to get involved again in another church of the same ilk? Maybe Beverly was not a...

    Are The Extreme Genuinely Happy?

    Latest from Steve Anderson, who seems to love stirring multiple pots of controversy - he says single mothers are "whores" and should not be given assistance. It is not clear to me, from this article, whether Stevo would make an exception for single mothers whose husbands divorced them, or died...

    Are 50 Minute Altar Calls Biblical

    Maybe this shtick would work better: "Every head bowed, every eye closed, no one looking around. If you know for sure, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that you are saved, please raise your hand. Thank you, thank you, I see those hands, hands going up all over the auditorium. Okay, you may...
