Again, 80% of Americans believe that miracles are common now. Why would I be so foolish to challenge that belief? I’m not. As I said previously, I’m not here to quarrel with anyone’s belief system, if that belief system includes common miracles. But, as the title of this series implies, sometimes there are problems with…

I know, a firestorm of posts these days. But soon I will be like the lone Apollo astronaut in the command module, going behind the moon and being in a communication blackout zone. By Sunday, so I hope, I will pick up my manuscript Retribution and start the rewrite. That will take at least a…

I was going to look at this topic from a variety of perspectives. However, even addressing it from a Christian standpoint alone will be daunting. Therefore, all my discussions would be how the issue of miracles play out in that Christian realm. First, I want to discuss definitions. Like I said in my previous post,…
