Lamentations
Homelessness
Simply summarized, it is inspired by family breakdown; which is the product of that cool, progressive, Godless movement which propagated sex outside of marriage. Indeed, the de-sacralization of marriage – the holy institution where sex is exclusively, as a holy association, to be had – is the true “root cause” of the contemporary break down […]

On Capacity for Salacity
Our capacity for salacity Is beyond what one may imagine, And to our chagrin It does not end But begins anew rightIn our hearts, Wicked in every new day. O that sin within Every day rises up to begin Another assault upon our souls, On friends and foe taking tolls! And what of it shall […]

Answered Prayer Delayed
(Deuteronomy 7:22 Poetized) Think of all the times when Answered prayer was delayed. Oh the whining and the moaning The groaning for our wishes To be fulfilled on our table Of time. But what a crimeIt should be (And we shall see!) The folly of our own wants Displayed in the haunts Of our personal […]

Jean Harlow, Joan Crawford, And Judy Garland Had Studio-Pressured Abortions In old Hollywood, the studios controlled the lives of actors, and they strongly believed a bombshell couldn’t get married or, most especially, pregnant.

Reading that Lexicon
Reading along in my lexicon I came across a word Most absurd it would seem. “Ekthesis” it is. Oh, how coarse And yet, back then, so normal So regular, however morose. “A putting out, exposing” It reads – but of what? A child indeed – “a child”! Barbaric seems not Sufficient a word to tell […]

Moments in Time
We worship moments in time Memories, places, pictures sublime. Yet it is we, who were created. The Maker is our worship owed Throughout our days in this abode. The lust for things of earth Spinning before us since birth Has no place of import, Driving us to abort, Weed to smoke and coke to snort. […]

Ekthesis
It is a word from the pre-Christian Greek world. And it is a window in the barbarism of that world. The titular word – “ekthesis” – is defined by Liddell and Scott in their classic Intermediate Greek-English Lexicon (seven editions as of 1975) as follows: “a putting out, exposing, of a child” – and the […]

Miscarriage and the Death of Infants
Long ago, we lost a child. Anastasia died in the womb, and so our grief was not like that of parents who lose a child whom they have come to know and with whom they have traded laughter and smiles. (Perhaps we would miss her more had it not been for eleven others to distract […]

I Don’t Think Reddy Was Ready
Helen Reddy She will always, sadly, be known for her blasphemous song about the Lord Almighty, even the Savior, Jesus in the musical, Jesus Christ, Superstar. “He’s a man. He’s just a man” in rejection of the claims of his followers, the Scriptures, and Jesus, Himself, to His deith. No, Helen. He wasn’t – and […]

“Oureia Ekbole”
That would be the transliteration of the expression which references “children exposed on the mountains” according to Euripedes as noted in my Greek-English Lexicon (Liddell and Scott, 7th edition). One finds this information when looking up the single word “ekbole” which means 1) “a throwing” and 2) “ejectment, banishing the cargo overboard.” It is not […]

The Corona Blessing: The Almighty Brings Parents to Maturity
4 Aug., 2020 For some, the virus has served to compel improvements in parenting. Careers cans serve as an escape from the duty to “parent,” to “rear,” – indeed to “disciple” one’s children. Parenting is a labor that some, to their discredit, are happy to circumvent or attenuate. Careers sometimes provide a relief from that […]
