I bring home a trapped coyote and let it loose in the kitchen.
Hackles up. Teeth bared. Pissing on the floor.
My wife says, "Get it out."
I tell her that is a very unwelcoming and unchristian way to speak about a future house pet.
The children back into the hallway.
I tell them it's a rescue.
I tell them fences are fear.
I tell them cages are barbaric.
I tell them the old rules were cruel.
I tell them it will domesticate in time.
Then I grab my lunchbox and leave them to live with my principles.
When I get home, there is blood on the floor, and the experts who sold me on compassion are already explaining why nobody could have seen this coming.
Anyway, that's Western migration policy.
Mark flew across the continent again, to watch another soccer game.
He had been on the ground for less than 36 hours, following his last trip to British Columbia.
The fuel burned on this flight was 8,000L, and the CO2 emissions were roughly 20,000kg.
ln 1992 Al Gore predicted that within two decades, Florida would lose 60% of its population due to climate change. Today, 34 years later, Florida’s population is 425% higher than it was in 1992.
The Anti-Abortion logic is quite literally unassailable.
- Human beings should not be murdered.
- Babies in utero are human beings.
- Therefore we should not permit babies in utero to be murdered
Everyone who tries to argue either exposes themselves as a psychopath or a fool.
Peter is not the Rock, Jesus is.
Mary is not the mediator, Jesus is.
The Pope is not the head of the church, Jesus is.
The Catholic Church is not the way to heaven, Jesus is.
🚨 FARMER SKINS A DEAD LAMB… THEN WRAPS IT ON A LIVE ONE — AND PEOPLE CAN’T LOOK AWAY
A lamb is born dead… but what happens next has people split.
The farmer carefully removes the skin… then puts it onto an orphaned lamb like a “onesie.”
Not for shock. For survival.
Because sheep don’t recognize their babies by sight… they recognize them by scent.
• The orphan now smells like the mother’s real lamb
• The mother accepts it without hesitation
• And just like that… it gets a second chance
To some people, this looks disturbing.
To others, it’s one of the oldest, smartest tricks in farming.
Is this cruel… or the only reason that lamb is still alive?

A common Roman Catholic talking point about praying to Mary or other deceased Christians is that they’re not really “praying” to them at all. They’ll say they’re simply asking for intercession, no different than asking a friend on earth to pray for you.
But that comparison breaks down real fast.
If I ask a friend here on earth to pray for me, I just ask. I tell them what’s going on and ask them to keep me in their prayers. Scripture actually encourages this kind of mutual care among believers.
But that’s not what’s happening with Mary.
I don’t
- build statues of my friends and kneel before them.
I don’t
- burn incense or light candles in their honor.
I don’t
- call them a co-mediator between me and God.
I don’t
- use language for them that the Bible reserves for God alone.
And I certainly don’t
- bow in prayer to them so they can pass my requests along.
At that point, the “it’s just like asking a friend” argument isn’t just weak, intentionally misleading.
Whatever is going on in those practices, it goes far beyond simply asking a fellow believer to pray.
