Note on the word Energion
The name Energion originally was the name of a role playing game system I designed with some help from my friends. Though I am no longer making use of the system, I have begun to make the old manuals and some related software available on the internet. Look at the Energion Role-Playing Game System.

- On Mythicist Views of Jesus
Sun, 07 Feb 2010 07:52:14 -0600
For those who may not watch all these things the term “mythicists” refers to those who believe Jesus never existed, that the stories about him were made up at some point and were not even centered on a minimal historical figure. There is a near alternative which holds that there were so few valid [...]
- Justice Thomas on Citizens United
Thu, 04 Feb 2010 09:28:41 -0600
I don’t find myself agreeing wholeheartedly with Justice Thomas very often, but Allan Bevere calls attention to remarks he made in Florida (NY Times), and I think he makes some very good points.
Allan says:
Interesting, isn’t it? In the fear over the corrupting influence of lots of money, some folk haven’t even considered the corrupting influence [...]
- N. T. Wright on Hell
Fri, 29 Jan 2010 05:44:07 -0600
An interesting short discussion.

- Observations on Web Site Stats and Ranks
Tue, 02 Feb 2010 11:28:13 -0600
I’ve been looking around the web for a discussion of various ways of keeping and portraying web site statistics and also for page ranking information. I’ve also had an opportunity to observe a few differences on my own sites and sites I manage. This involves around thirty domains for several different companies including both of [...] - Evolution Mail: Summary and folder mismatch
Tue, 02 Feb 2010 10:06:22 -0600
Actually, the full error message I have been getting was “Summary and folder mismatch, even after a sync” and “Unable to store Inbox.” I found this older post, which I include because of the valuable suggestion that one backup one’s mail folders before trying the fix, and also because I believe some people may need [...] - Ransomware Warning
Sat, 30 Jan 2010 09:02:58 -0600
I think this article on MSNBC’s Red Tape Chronicles is good reading for the non-technically oriented. I have already encountered some of the programs mentioned on various computers. This should just be another warning to: Keep your anti-virus products up to date Keep your backups current Be very careful what you download from the internet McAfee’s SiteAdvisor is very helpful.

- Kindness: Power in Forgiveness
Fri, 05 Feb 2010 05:00:44 -0600
8YHWH our God, you answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, But one who punished their misdeeds. Psalm 99:8 (HN) ? Henry Neufeld One of the tough things about learning to forgive is the feeling that we?re letting someone off the hook. Deep down we feel that they should get what?s coming to [...] - Kindness: Wait for It
Thu, 04 Feb 2010 05:00:41 -0600
And YHWH said to Moses, ?Go up into the mountain and wait [lit. be there] . . . ? Exodus 24:12 (HN) ? Henry Neufeld When I was in the Air Force we frequently heard the saying ?Hurry up and wait.? You see, the powers that be, however little more power they had than I had, wanted [...] - Kindness: It is Right
Wed, 03 Feb 2010 05:00:56 -0600
But you are a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and didn?t forsake them. Nehemiah 9:17 (WEB) I love the criminal investigation TV [...]
- New Blogroll Members and Blogrolling Problem
Wed, 31 Dec 1969 07:00:00 -0600
First, apparently Blogrolling has been having troubles for some time so that rolls cannot be updated. They expect to have this fixed soon. I didn't notice because I was so far behind in updating the roll. Second, I have just updated the roll with submissions going all the way back to ... - 4 Posts on Tithing

Finally! After nearly two months, another "four posts" post. I hope to be more regular as I'm using my Google Reader more effectively. What are these 4 Posts entries?

- On Etymological and Anti-Etymological Fallacies
Sat, 06 Feb 2010 08:07:16 -0600
Clayboy has an excellent post on preachers who say “What the Greek really means…” or words to that effect. I was drawn to this one because of my own experience.
My wife tells me that when we first got married she quickly got used to watching me during sermons. I need to tell you that my [...]
- Can One Be a Bibleist?
Tue, 02 Feb 2010 07:59:13 -0600
I received a link to the following video in a tweet from @TheActiveWord. It seems so closely related to my last post that I’d include it here:
There are several things I agree with here. First, I do believe that the Bible has the sovereignty of God and the responsibility (of which some sort of free [...]

- Three Commentaries on Leviticus
Fri, 15 Jan 2010 08:49:39 -0600
I just compared two commentaries on Leviticus on my Participatory Bible Study blog. In addition, I’d like to link to my older review of Jacob Milgrom’s three volume commentary on the same book. From that review: The only possible adjective for this commentary is “incredible.” It is not just long (2,468 pages of text), [...] - Review ? The Second Confession
Wed, 11 Nov 2009 11:10:45 -0600
In this mystery, Nero Wolfe finds himself under attack through one of his dearest things–his orchids. He also finds himself working outside his home, another unusual situation for him. Since much of the action takes place outside of New York City, we don’t have staples such as Detective Cramer, but we do hear about [...] - Review ? Storm from the Shadows
Wed, 11 Nov 2009 11:04:44 -0600
Storm from the Shadows is a sequel to The Shadow of Saganami, and as such advances the general history in the Honorverse only a little bit beyond the end of At All Costs. I had read some reviews that said that this book ended on a cliffhanger, but I had generally dismissed those. David Weber [...]

- Living so Others ask Questions
Mon, 08 Feb 2010 05:00:25 -0600
Anthony at A Little Light posts on 1 Peter 3:15 – in context. He suggests we need to lead lives that cause people to ask positive questions about the gospel.
This reminded me of an experience I had when I was delivering newspapers. This was not a paper route as a boy, but one I did [...]

- Ted Gossard Reviews Christian Archy
Fri, 05 Feb 2010 12:30:47 -0600
Ted M. Gossard writes the review at Jesus Community. His conclusion:
I believe the thrust and heart of this book are needed and crucial for the faith, life and witness of the church today. It is short, concise and affordable, one of those books one may want to work on, and good for reference. So [...]
- Best Action Scene? Only if
Fri, 05 Feb 2010 11:10:03 -0600
… you think that completely throwing all sense of reality to the wind makes an action scene “best.” Yeah, I know. Action scenes aren’t generally all that realistic, but this one is special. Fun to watch too!
