March 4 is National Grammar Day! Hooray!
Unfortunately, I don’t have time to do a hilarious hagiography like I did last year, or much of anything really, being too busy correcting grammar for a living. So here’s the next best thing: What would a grammar holiday be without some rousing choruses of Schoolhouse Rock? Bet [...]
Good heavens! Rev. Bosco Peters of Liturgy.co.nz has gone and found it. It’s a St. Peter joke (you know, this guy dies and goes to the pearly gates and he meets St. Peter and St. Peter says….) that actually has good theology. Well, for a St. Peter joke. Have a gander:
A man dies and goes [...]

Many different people believe that if you are a Christian you will go to heaven… If this is so, that means that Fred Phelps will go to heaven. When you consider that non-Christians don’t, that would mean that Phelps would go but not Princess Di and M. Gandhi. Is this fair?

(The Christian Album Covers gallery being a prime example.) I also sometimes like to point out how atheist attacks on Christianity tend to miss the [...]
This is an oldie but goodie from my archives; it also got featured on Revelife.com to general hilarity. It’s been on my mind again as I’m trying to decide what to put on the cover of my forthcoming CD. I can assure you, it won’t be anything like these….

want to be famous!” said young Mister Fiddle.
“I’m tired of feeling so humble and little.
I want to have glory, and honor, and fame,
And have everyone notice when they hear my name.”

It's a travesty
(Originally posted: October 2004)
