• New Healing Hut Episode

    February 19, 2025

    Below is my latest The Healing Hut, episode (23) where I drywall the first floor, build a shower, deal with a persistent leak around the chimney, and restore an old apothecary box. Thanks for watching as I continue this journey in my battle against Multiple Myeloma and renal failure. Mike

  • Ramblings: American Culture at a Reflection Point, Are We on the Cusp of Greatness or a Catastrophic Failure? Part V, A Practical Philosophical Response

    February 13, 2025

    In 2025, we are standing at the confluence of three calamitous rivers. The first river is late postmodernism, which pop culture has fully adopted. It has undermined our belief in factual truth, replacing it with a subjective, personal “truth,” invented at one’s pleasure. We have now lost our skills for finding factual truth, using due…

  • Ramblings: American Culture at a Reflection Point, Are We on the Cusp of Greatness or a Catastrophic Failure? Part IV How Lies Destroy a Culture

    February 7, 2025

    Defining Truth I have done this many times on this blog; however, once again, I must define “Truth” because it is one of the most abused words. Many blogs, podcasts, and YouTube channels use the word “truth” in their title, but with a different meaning. Religious sites use it to represent their dogmas. Political websites…

  • Ramblings: American Culture at a Reflection Point, Are We on the Cusp of Greatness or a Catastrophic Failure? Part III The Philosophical Perspective

    February 1, 2025

    Introduction In 1966, American psychologist Abraham Maslow said, “I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail.” My nail is the thirty-thousand-foot view of the grand flow of philosophical viewpoints that determine how each culture thinks. If the perspectives I mentioned…

  • Ramblings: American Culture at a Reflection Point, Are We on the Cusp of Greatness or a Catastrophic Failure? Part II The Christian Perspective

    January 24, 2025

    It does not matter if you are a Christian or not, the Christian subculture has had a significant impact on the present predicament of the American culture. Donald Trump could not have influenced American politics or culture (beyond a silly reality show) without the help of American evangelicals and conservative Catholics. It was reported that…

  • Ramblings: American Culture at a Reflection Point, Are We on the Cusp of Greatness or a Catastrophic Failure? Part I

    January 16, 2025

    Prolog Soon, I will make a major shift in this blog’s direction back to its original charter: to speak to those disillusioned with or who have left Christianity or theism, asking the tough questions that are not allowed in church meetings. But, before I move to that new format, I wanted to nail my thesis…

  • Ramblings: Jimmy Carter Part II, the Real Reason I Cried at Jimmy’s State Funeral

    January 11, 2025

    This is one of those posts that I write on a whim. When I am overcome with emotion, but I don’t have the time to write well. There will be no proofing of this text, so bear with me. I cry at all funerals now. Ever since I was first caught up in the whirlwind…

  • Ramblings: Jimmy Carter, an Echo From When Evangelicalism Was More Aligned with the Teachings of Christ

    January 1, 2025

    I would have been considered an evangelical from the time I was born in 1955 until I departed the movement in 1990. I took ownership of my evangelicalism as a high school senior in 1973 and was a zealot for the cause for the next seventeen years. Jimmy Carter was the first candidate I voted…

  • New Healing Hut Video

    December 27, 2024

    Below is my latest, Episode 22, of The Healing Hut. It is a race against the backdrop of a lung infection, getting the heat on and a toilet installed, in time for Christmas guests. I hope you are having a fantastic holiday. Mike

  • Ramblings: A Breath of Fresh Air for Honest Thinkers-Follow Up

    December 21, 2024

    Sometimes ideas come to me in the middle of the night and I write them down. When I read them the following day, they seem negative. This is what happened with this last post. It felt so positive when I wrote it. For over a decade I’ve been corresponding with, and writing for people who…
