Eric Margolis on the Muslim Brotherhood
I’m no expert on the Middle East, but I think it’s a safe bet to say that Eric Margolis is a better source on Egyptian politics than the entertainers in Congress and talk radio put together. In his articles, The Mideast Burns and Democracy or More Dictatorship for Egypt?, Eric Margolis lays out his thoughts [...]

What is God? A Response to John Fensel (#5).
Like a serpent in a garden, John Fensel has posed an old question in new garb: “Do Moral Obligations really follow from God’s Existence?“ In 1504 words, his answer is “No.” Attempting to answer questions including, “What is obligation?” and “What is moral?”, he neglects the big question: “What is God?” The shorter Westminster Catechism replies, [...]

Relax: Muslims Aren’t Taking Over America
I was recently involved in a conversation with an otherwise respectable and sane community leader about Muslims and the future of the United States. Part of the conversation went something like this. HIM: “The Muslims are going to take over the US.” ME (eyebrows raised): “You think the Muslims are going to take over the [...]

A Stranger in a Strange Land
We don’t use air conditioning in my new place. That’s what happens when two cheap college guys share a room. So even in the air, my new place feels different. It’s not all too hot, but it’s muggy, and the wet air seems to cling to everyone. My neighbors don’t use air conditioning either. I [...]

More Hysteria about Muslim Birth Rates
Muslims, it seems, have been popping up everywhere these last few weeks. I’m about twenty-five days from moving into a mainly Muslim neighborhood, and everywhere I turn I find people discussing Muslims. A friend of mine took me along with him last Saturday morning to a discussion about Christians proselytizing Muslims at Glenwood United Methodist [...]
I’m moving to a Muslim neighborhood in about forty days.
And it’s not that I like Muslims any more than any other people. I’ll take their worldview over secular humanism any day, but I’m perfectly okay with racial profiling in airports and I don’t buy the nonsense about the Qur’an being peaceful or Islam meaning ‘peace’ or any similar PC garbage. It’s that the rent [...]

The churches, with common consent among us, do teach that the decree of the Nicene Synod concerning the unity of the divine essence and of the three persons is true, and without doubt to be believed: to wit, that there is one divine essence which is called and is God, eternal, without body, indivisible [without [...]

Fertility Rates in Predominantly Muslim Countries, Part 2
So, this one’s going to be an even simpler version of last post. In the parentheses after each country name will be two numbers. The first number will be the 2009 total fertility rate of the country, and the second number will be its 1999 fertility rate. Countries will be sorted into groups by GDP [...]
