When I was a high school religion teacher I ran into a bit of trouble because, for the final exam, I expected the students to be able to recall facts from the Bible that we had covered that semester. Yes, I know. If it had been chemistry class, recalling chemistry facts covered in the semester would have been an obvious thing to have on the exam. I think the reason there was resistance to requiring that students know biblical facts is because a lot of people- even parents of kids in Christian schools- don’t actually think the Bible is true. … continue reading...

Anthony’s Three Priorities
These are the three guiding principles that underlie most of the posts on this blog, and Anthony's purpose in life:
1. Secure eternal life for himself and his loved ones through Jesus Christ.
2. Get as many other people as he can to accept Jesus as their Lord and savior so that they, too, may have eternal life.
3. Prevent the next holocaust-level event from occurring and stop the ones that are presently on-going. He does not share the optimism of some that humanity has 'progressed' enough to avoid it...
In light of these stakes, most other things fall into the category of "don't sweat the small stuff."
Commentary Delay
Because I believe that people are being manipulated into regularly scheduled outrages, and because I am not a tool so easily manipulated, I will generally abstain from opining on ‘national conversations’ until I am good and ready to do so. Obviously, I reserve the right comment immediately as I see fit. If you are a Christian–don’t be a tool.
