Desiring God‘s recent blog post by Greg Morse about beards and their theological significance – nay, their desirability to demonstrate God-given manliness – seems like a pretty close shave towards patriarchy if you ask me. It’s time for some bald facts. I am not sure why Desiring God had to become Desiring Beard. It feels […]
Despite the temptation to label the misogynistic, abusive and downright dangerous attitudes towards women held by Andrew Tate as “Neanderthal”, his views are quite modern. Very modern actually. Perhaps you’ve never heard of Tate. Well google him. He’s a US/Brit celebrity who was once kicked off Britain’s Big Brother when a video of him beating […]
Here’s what really ticks off Christians seeking to live faithful lives in workplaces that are aggressively pushing the Sexular Age onto their employees. They get tired of people whose lives inhabit the sheltered workshop of fulltime pastoral ministry telling them that if they’d only spend more time being like Jesus in terms of compassion, justice, […]
I’ve always considered Western Australian Premier Mark McGowan to be the Costco version of his hyper progressive Victorian counterpart Daniel Andrews. Mr McCosto. That’s what I’m gonna call him. A bit cheaper, a bit more populist. But hey, it is Perth after all! Riding a wave of separatist sentiment during the COVID wave meant that […]
Happy birthday George Jetson! According to disputed records, George was destined to be born in 2022, and some say – with little evidence – that the date was 31st July. If that is the case then he’s now a full week and bit old, and giving his mother sleepless nights with his disturbed circadian rhythm. […]
I love this photograph. Ollie Hoare of Australia has just taken down a world class field in the 2022 Commonwealth Games 1500m, breaking his PB and the longstanding Commonwealth Games record in doing so. The first Aussie to take the title since the great Herb Elliott more than sixty years ago. I’m a big Ollie […]
Aussie comedian Carl Barron has a funny set in which he laments the fact that he sent his old girlfriend crazy. In fact, as he goes on to say, she started hallucinating because of him. And he’s got the evidence to prove it. As he recounts it, she came home one day and said “Carl […]
It is a false dichotomy to declare that the seven Manly players who are refusing to wear the Pride jersey this week for their National Rugby League match (thereby scrubbing them from playing), are being hypocritical because they have had no problems wearing betting and alcohol logos on the same jersey. Yet I have seen […]
I guess when you’ve cut God out of the equation as most of the mainstream media has these days, then it’s newsworthy when the ex Prime Minister tells Christians not to put their trust in governments. But oh the shock and surprise in the media that what ex-PM Scott Morrison told Margaret Court’s Victory Life […]
I’m on holidays. Enjoying them too. But okay, it needed something big to celebrate my 1000th blog post, so here’s a link to my recentThird Space post on the James Webb telescope. 1000 blog posts. There have been some stars, but some real black holes there too. But I kinda like it this one! Here’s […]
