This is a message to my readers, mostly, but if you're new, I like your face, too! A few things are going to change about my blog and I wanted to share with why. It was actually quite the revelation!

The Adventures of Manly McBeard!–The Faulty Battery
My wife and I were enjoying a lovely date night. We'd gone out to eat, just seen a movie, and we were ready to go back home, when the forces of wimpiness got in our way. We both got in the car, I put the key in the ignition and turned. Nothing. Not even a … Continue reading The Adventures of Manly McBeard!–The Faulty Battery
Christian Freakouts! –The six, the six, and the third six
This is part of a write-it-when-it-happens series about when Christians go bonkers over stuff. Being a Christian myself, I find these things amusing at best, and detrimental to Christianity at worst. Today, we have one of the former ones, and while it's a subject Christians have panicked over for centuries, it was brought to new … Continue reading Christian Freakouts! –The six, the six, and the third six

Today, my shield cracked. And I figure that if I'm going to tell people … Continue reading A Crack in the Shield–A Response to Thursday’s Post

I don't usually post on Thursdays, but something neat happened today. Well, interesting, at least. I got into a theological debate today, which hasn't happened in a really long time. I didn't quite miss it. Anywho, I told a lady I was a Christian and I could tell that bothered her. Mostly by the way … Continue reading KA-PWING!–Why a Brain is Important in Christianity
What Sinners Know
It always makes me sad when a non-Christian knows more about Christianity than a Christian does. I remember there was a debate when I was in college: Ron Jeremy vs Craig Gross. For those of you who don't know, Ron Jeremy is a former porn star. Craig Gross is the founder of the (awkwardly-named) Triple-X … Continue reading What Sinners Know
Top 10 Anime Tropes that Need to DIE!
As with many things in my life, I have a love/hate relationship with anime. I admire the beauty of the art, the excitement of the craft, and most importantly, the use of animation on an audience that's older than 10 without jumping straight to South Park. But then...there's all THIS stuff! 10. Let's Talk about … Continue reading Top 10 Anime Tropes that Need to DIE!
