Pope Francis was recently reported as saying there is no hell. It’s a bogus, or “fake news” report as far as I can tell. However, it’s out there now and that is all most people need to confirm their own thoughts about the matter. Like all bogus reporting, the damage is done. Coupled with his statement …

The Perpetrators of Lies & Evils
Recently I read this statement: Most people are highly reluctant to admit that they have been conned or have shown poor judgment. In 28 years of studying human nature I find that to be a perfectly accurate statement. So accurate in fact, that I believe it to be the number one reason why the grandest lies & evils have been …
That’s The Problem With Our Problems
The other morning on television I watched a group of people sitting on the ground in a circle expressing forced laughter. Apparently research has shown that the health benefits of laughter are far-reaching, strengthening one’s immune system, boosting energy, diminishing pain and giving protection from the damaging effects of stress. More than one person had a stressed out …
The Nice People
In my recent post: Satan’s Useful Idiot, I made two statements, one with a question; God is not interested in being nice. Where in the gospels does one see Jesus being nice? A couple of people were offended. I don’t know what their beliefs are or whether they’re Christians or non-Christians, but it’s not the first time I’ve …
Zombies in the Pulpits – Zombies in the Pews
Two years prior to becoming a Christian I spent as much time as I could reading about human nature. I found it to be a fascinating experience and I absorbed as many books as I could get my hands on about the subject, both from the library and from second-hand book shops. Old cloth-bound and hard cover books held a greater appeal for me than the …

Muddled & Confused
I typed the search term “end times” into Google the other day and it came back with a result of 5,250,000 over 79 pages. Whatever else those figures tell us, it shows that millions of people all over the world have some interest in this subject. Next, I typed in the search term “end times prophecy” and it …
To Have that Which I can’t Have
The one thing about human nature that never ceases to fascinate me is the driving force within to take to ourselves that which is not meant for us. Or, to have that which I can’t have. The small child is told that he or she can,”look, but not touch.” Once we turn our back, what’s the …
The Spirit of Cultism Entices People
If it were not for the seriousness of the issue, to me it would be laughable when I hear members of the atheistic, humanistic media asking a cult member or leader, “Are you involved with a cult? Is your organization a cult?” They haven’t a clue what it is they’re asking. If it were otherwise, they would not ask. …
Why Are the People not Told This?
Recently on television, I viewed a news item about a forthcoming canonization into sainthood of a nun who lived here in Australia from the mid-1800’s to the early 1900’s. In October, she will be the first such person to be canonized in this nation and therefore, a level of great interest is being shown, not only by members of the …
A Statement from Hell
Recently I was asked by a man, “Why is it that so many people get caught up in all these cults? Don’t they have a mind of their own? It seems to me that you’d have to be a half-wit to be taken in by them.” Making it very clear to me that he was a non-believer in God, …
