The Wandering Heretic

And I am writing and posting this blog using the phone and a $ .99 app called “Poster.”  Not practical for the normal posts I do (at least until I learn the keyboard better!). But it still is kind of fun. Personally, I think it is a great phone.  However, at least as of now, [...]

This will make the second of the family to graduate from Baldwin-Wallace College (I was the first). It was a wonderful day. Photos were taken with my brand new, purchased for the occasion, Panasonic FZ28. A great camera with amazing features. And no, the good looking guy posing with my son in the freeze frame [...]

For those who are wondering, I have not given up posting or blogging.  Instead, I was hired to work for a new company in December of 2008.  It is a software house that services the same client base as that of my former employer; however, the package is completely different and complex.  They have been [...]

I already mentioned my Daughter graduated from High School as a homeschooled child. Here is the video the class of 11 seniors put together that was shown at the ceremony. I know this has been done in other venues, but they still put in some nice touches. I know it is my daughter, so I [...]

(For the record, the church I discuss below is not where where my daughter graduated. In case this institution wishes to punish those who homeshool within their walls based on this post, please note that I do not attend there.

In my mental exercise or excursus into the benefits of the Christian/Enlightenment dichotomic dance that buttresses the American Experience, I listed several witnesses of the dangers a divorce between the two influences engenders. My first draft of that post had six instances; the final version—if for nothing other than length—had four. I now present the [...]

In September of 2007, the internet columnist Kathie Shaidle changed the name of her blog from Relapsed Catholic to Five Feet of Fury. At that time, I posted an article basically expressing my fears the Shaidle had started on the slope downward toward compromise. I assumed eventually that formally cutting her ties to the Catholic [...]

I am going to tell you a story; it is one that I think is pretty funny. But to get the humor you have understand something of my nature. It is no accident that my pseudonym for this blogsite is the fictional Kwai Chang Caine. My heroes when I was growing up were Star Trek‘s [...]

As Gentiles we have been engrafted into Israel, and as such are part of the people of Israel. That has been my focus in many of my last posts. Now I think I need to tell you why this has become so important to me. For you see, unlike other nations, Israel was defined as [...]
