3D ultrasound shows Babies yawning in the womb

June 29, 2004

Thanks to Antioch Road for this one. These new 3D ultrasound pictures are amazing and surely help to give the lie to the idea that a young baby is simply ’tissue’. The BBC has a slideshow

LEts get the Blogdom of God Alliance blogroll code fixed!

June 29, 2004

Our ever generous host over at The Truth Laid Bear: says: “I know what the problem is. Remember (scroll down), I recently changed the Ecosystem to retrieve a blog’s name from the TITLE attribute. Well, at least one blog in the Blogdom of God has some funky HTML code embedded in their TITLE. Dunno which [...]

Reformed charismatics do exist

June 26, 2004

Further proof that such a creature exists if you needed it could be found in the talk I listened to this morning by Terry Virgo given at the recent Leaders conference in Brighton. Sadly I missed the conference as I was looking after the children so my wife could go.
Anyway, his comments included the [...]

Can a Gay man and an Evangelical have a conversation without coming to blows?

June 25, 2004

After Bill Cameron, a fellow British Blogger who happens to be Gay has been so gracious in his reply to my comments it got me thinking.
Is it possible for him and I to have a conversation ‘Blog to blog’ as it were without coming to blows?
Now, I dont want my American readers to come wading [...]

Making Peace

June 24, 2004

Jollyblogger has been shamelessly promoting Ken Sande’s book the peacemaker and speaking of adapting much of his material.
Well I have been there too, and preached on ‘Blessed are the peacemakers’
I was able to construct some useful acronyms such as that forgiveness means to ‘DROP’ something- refuse to dwell on it, prevent it from effecting your [...]

How to get ahead in life without trampling over everyone else…..

June 24, 2004

Jollyblogger writes:

“We seem to think that marriage troubles, or any other relational troubles, are the result of things like poor communication, failure to understand the other person’s point of view, failure to meet needs, or the all purpose catch-all reason – incompatibility. But this is not the case at all. Relational troubles are rooted in [...]

Blunkett the legal ‘thug’

June 24, 2004

It seems I am not alone after all in my criticism of Blunkett.
The Telegraph reports “Blunkett ‘ruined fireman’s chance of fair retrial’” The Times calls him the legal equivalent of a football holligan and according to Bill Cameron, he is quite simply ‘at it again’. If I was an influential American blogger I [...]

Another Warnock Blogger!

June 20, 2004

This is the strangest thing. There is another Warnock blogger – one David Warnock. What is more he describes himself as a ’student minister’ and was recently staying near my house!
Anyway, he is now on my blogroll- do pay him a visit. He has linked to a couple of my posts and takes [...]

Clinton looses his rag on TV

June 20, 2004

Memo to all famous or nearnly famous people out there (and yes that includes ex-presidents of the USA). If anyone approaches you from Panorama to be intereviewed consider your response carefully. In a result that is all too familiar for anyone who has ever watched Panorama, Clinton is apparently given such a grilling [...]

Blunkett vows to ‘nail’ hooligan

June 20, 2004

Am I the only one who finds Blunketts interferences in the process of individual cases a little concerning?
Whatever the rights and wrongs of the
case of the holigan who escaped jail surely it is not right for a politician to pronounce he is trying to ‘nail’ someone is it? Whatever happened to the separation between [...]

Is the blogosphere beyond control?

June 18, 2004

the evangelical outpost: talks about the different types of political blog and then says:
“The blogosphere, after all, is still a grassroots medium. And, like all such organizations, it’s ultimately beyond the ability to be controlled by a central figure.”
I am not sure I fully agree with that statement. People like instapundit do a [...]

Avoiding Extremes

June 17, 2004

Jollyblogger: reports

‘….error is truth disconnected from the larger web of truth.
Strangely enough, I think error is often a result of an effort to be logically consistent. For instance, Calvinists who try to be logically consistent with their doctrine of predestination often end up in hyper-Calvinism or some type of fatalism or determinism. This is [...]

Jollyblogger is on the up!

June 16, 2004

I am delighted to report that Jollyblogger seems to be climbing the ranks over at the ecosystem. Just look at the Blogdom of God list over on your right. The system ranks sites by their link popularity. I can honestly say I hope he overtakes me in the listings as his blog is FAR more [...]
