Catman do

May 20th, 2007 ~ Culture gone mad

Catherine K’s comment on the last post made me remember something I read about recently — a guy who’s been altering his body for years to make himself look like a cat.
Thought maybe I just dreamt it, but nope.
Stalking Cat started his transformation in 1980 after leaving his post as a sonar submarine technician for […]

Unnatural shocks

April 19th, 2007 ~ Current events, Culture gone mad

The spring air was delicious when I left the grocery store yesterday, and I couldn’t resist just sitting in the car with the windows down for a minute feeling the breeze on my face. It took me a minute to focus my eyes on the large flag flapping gently on the flagpole of the restaurant […]

Imus-ta gone mad

April 12th, 2007 ~ Current events, Culture gone mad

The current flak over a stupid comment by a stupid radio guy is just too much to be believed. I wouldn’t have thought that an idiotic sound-byte like calling members of a women’s basketball team “nappy-headed ho’s” would be worth the time it even takes to type it.
But then, it really doesn’t have much to […]

“Pop culture discovers Jesus — once a year”

March 9th, 2007 ~ Culture gone mad

In case you weren’t offended enough by “The Lost Tomb of Christ,” this blog post from Michael Medved indicates that the “Easter Surprise” is on its way.
I’ve been working on a major column for USA TODAY (it’s slated to run in the newspaper on Monday) about the Discovery Channel documentary “The Lost Tomb of Jesus.” […]

Putting the “Lost Tomb” to bed

March 5th, 2007 ~ Culture gone mad

I just noticed that I didn’t have a title for the last post. And then it seems like it somehow doesn’t even deserve one. It hardly merits the notice of a blog post. But then, there were two last thoughts I had on the whole thing, and so I thought I’d (ha ha) resurrect it […]

March 4th, 2007 ~ Culture gone mad

Do you get the impression that the people that work at the “science lite” channels like Discovery and National Geographic have decided that pestering Christians is some kind of contest? Last year, National Geographic re-packaged a gnostic text that the Church had tossed in the wastebasket centuries ago, offering up the “Judas Gospel” as if […]

Beast and the Beauty

February 10th, 2007 ~ Movies I liked or didn't, Culture gone mad

Channel-flipping yesterday, I happened across the movie “Hitch.” Though it seemed like a pleasant-enough bit of fluff and probably a good vehicle for Will Smith, I found I had to change the channel again after a short time, because the plot that was unfolding touched on something that’s becoming a bit of a pet peeve […]

7 Signs End Times Begin in 2007!

January 12th, 2007 ~ Culture gone mad

Following up on all the thoughts about Revelation and the obsession with the “end times,” we can all rest easy. Waiting in the grocery line, I saw that the tabloid The Sun has the scoop we’ve been waiting for. “New Dead Sea Scrolls Shocker! 7 SIGNS END TIMES BEGIN IN 2007!”
Oh, thank heaven. The suspense […]
