Keep in mind that to my knowledge (send me a link if I’m wrong), not a single … Read more
[Note: You may have to click photos to enlarge them] Since Ergun Caner has become the newly elected President of Brewton-Parker College, the Marketplace of Ideas (in the 21st Century this is called social media and the Internet) has become aflame with legitimate disbelief and outrage. The sheer magnitude of righteous indignation has been astounding, … Read more

Jared Moore (who I have no reason to believe is anything but a great guy), Second VP of the Southern Baptist Convention, posted an article today entitled, “Before Criticizing SBC Leaders and SBC Entities, Here are Some Good Questions to Ask.” When one Southern Baptist pastor asked him via Twitter if it was in response … Read more
Tim Rogers, pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church in Indian Trail, North Carolina has posted an article (re-posted at Synergism Today), claiming that Baptists outside of Alabama shouldn’t be commenting on the recent scandal concerning Bob Terry’s article in the Alabama Baptist.

Trinity Broadcasting Network, the hive of scum and villainy where discernment goes to die and sheep butchers merrily go out on daily flock-fleecing expeditions, announced that after 40 years of partnering with arch-heretic Kenneth Copeland and his Believer’s Voice of Victory program, that they were taking old bessie out to pasture in “pursuit of a new … Read more
An organization known as Downtown for Democracy is sponsoring an art exhibit in New York City for the rest of January. It claims to be a self-described “emergency” exhibit and is an “urgent call-to-action exhibition to raise both awareness and funding in support of accessible, safe, and legal abortion.” To support aborticide, the exhibit has posted … Read more
In absolutely shocking news, medical ethicists are sounding the alarm on a disturbing practice of medical researchers in Mexico.

Research posted in the Journal of Human Reproduction … Read more
An atheist who – in theory – does not believe in God, fought and won the right to declare himself God on his vehicle’s vanity plate. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of … Read more
Hi Erick, You have a great website, The Resurgent (I link it to show you courtesy, as I usually don’t link lesser-known blog sites). Truthfully though, I’ve never listened to your radio show. I’m more of a Steve Deace kind of guy (no offense). I admire a man who knows his theology well enough to … Read more
What’s worse than a gaggle of Chatty Cathy pecking hens cackling out their ill-informed opinions and old wives’ fables?

Better Together … Read more
