It is digging beyond the present to understand the past and possibly the future. Each step is one entry into a new view of understanding.

I never had the opportunity to meet Buster.  Being a person who enjoys the companionship of a dog, Buster was one of the reasons I decided to stop in and see what Booman Tribune was all about.  His face truly reveals the patience and warmth that I just wish we all could show each day. Looking with love and anticipation of acceptance, Buster spoke to me in a way that no comment or dairy could

This morning, I had the opportunity to read an interesting diary entry on Booman Tribune called Good Christians. The focus of this entry was to show how fundamentalism within religious groups is threatening to destroy the foundational principles upon which the United States was built. I can agree that religious extremists are ruling the day; however, the issue is more than fighting back to

Continuing our discussion on free will and its impact on our lives; let’s proceed to another important word that provides us with additional insight on our behavior towards others. For your reference, the scripture is provided below:Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hears my voice, and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. – Revelations 3:

In pursuit of a better understanding of what free will means, let's explore a specific scripture in the New Testament (Christian Scriptures for the theological and political correct group) that I believe brings some new insight to this discussion.Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hears my voice, and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.-

Any discussions about free will bring up a myriad of ideas, philosophies and contextual arguments that I must confess, spins my mind in many directions at once.
