a suggestion for those who contact me

I’ve got a contact page you can use to send me messages personally. Sometimes you send me really interesting thoughts, thoughts which I might want to repost online.  But I don’t always know whether you’d be comfortable with that, and I don’t want to betray your confidence.  So I’ve got a suggestion.

have i just experienced a significant epiphany tonight?

I’m not sure.  I just read about half of a book on blogging, and it seems like a whole lot of ideas are coming into sharper focus. Maybe I’ve just seen some profound insights into what blogging is and what I’m doing with this website and how to best reach people with ideas. Maybe I’m [...]

Now, I have nothing [...]

on focus

As I begin a new quarter in college and am currently taking on studies in two languages which I would ideally like to master, I realize that it’s going to take a higher level of focus in my studies.  So, at least for a while, I’ll be limiting my blog posts to once a week, [...]

i hate not simply fitting into simple categories

And when he attempted to speak in the Hebrew tongue unto them, they silenced him, that he might say nothing further, for he vocalized badly. – (not Acts 2:22) No.  I really don’t hate it.  It makes things more interesting.  What I’m referring to is John Hobbin’s recent suggestion that bibliobloggers be divided into categories [...]

new policy for this blog

All scripture is given by divine inspiration, and is profitable for doctrinal controversies, for reproof of political enemies, for correction of those who see not things as dost thou, for instruction in making others attain unto thine own man-made standard of righteousness, that the polemic disputer of this age may be perfect, thoroughly furnished with [...]

why google is so successful, and why this site exists
