  • Thoughts on Evil

    George Rebane It is clear to many, perhaps most, that evil abounds in the world today.  Yet the concepts of evil are varied to the point that among their extremes there may be no agreement at all on what constitutes evil.  I admit to being on or near a semantic extreme myself.  In any case,…

  • HE IS RISEN!

    George Rebane As Christmas is the promise, Easter is the fulfillment.  Oblivion vanquished, rejoice!

  • Shoring up Obama’s religion

    George Rebane Time again to put some nasty gossip to rest about the President and his religion.  I received an email from a correspondent citing a 29dec13 piece in the NYT about how “Mr. Obama’s faith is a more complicated, more private, and perhaps … a more inclusive affair.”  Well, we know that it’s a…

  • Emmanuel has come!

    Let us celebrate the joy of His coming.

  • Atheists need chaplains too (updated 28jul13)

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 26 July 2013.] New levels of social justice are being sought in our military.  The very same people who militate for separating church and state in all corners of public life are now demanding to have their fair share of padres in…

  • He is Risen!

    As Christmas is the promise, Easter is the fulfillment.  Oblivion vanquished, rejoice!

  • The New Pope and Christianity’s Challenge

    George Rebane [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 15 March 2013.] Cardinal of Argentina and Jesuit, Jorge Bergoglio, was elected Pope last Wednesday, the first from the Western Hemisphere to hold the Holy Office of Catholicism.  He chose to be known as Pope Francis (the First), a name that fits…

  • Christmas 2012

    George Rebane [This message was first posted on Christmas Eve 2009.] The two main events in the Christian calendar are celebrations of the Promise and the Fulfillment.  Christmas calls on us to reflect on the Promise delivered – the arrival of Emmanuel, God with us, that made real what had long been promised.  By His…

  • Transhumanism, Cosmism, and the Singularity

    George Rebane Last week my son-in-law sent me David Brin’s latest great sci-fi novel, Existence.   I couldn’t help but immediately put it into my reading stack.  Like most of you who frequent RR, I read several books concurrently, and Brin’s description of the state of the world in mid-century was something I had to know…

  • ‘Does God Watch Paint Dry?’

    George Rebane [I fear that this posting will be of little interest to most RR readers.  It is memorialized here as part of my personal record of thought that I am willing to share with those few whose interest might be piqued by such subjects.] Religions in general and Christianity in particular are suffering an…
