Equity Rescuing

I learned a term recently, “equity rescuing.” Perhaps you know this one, or need to know. It is sometimes used to describe what happens when people buy a house or car that is a real “money pit,” and despite how much more is spent no more equity is gained! This can also happen at work, …

“The Vampire” FidoTheCastro has finally faded, but not “his enormous impact”

The true legacy of Marxism is that people dance in the streets when its dictators die, while at the same time its other defeated presidential candidates cause riots in the streets. The truly incredible possibility is that the Clinton/Obama/Sanders/Marx Tribunal for Tyranny cannot actually see the reality of fifty years of Castro's megalomaniacal reign of tyranny.

Oppression and Slavery in the Ancient Near East and the Bible

At our Fall Seminar, we covered the three major historical periods of human slavery that have logical connections between them: in Part I, I discussed briefly some of the A.N.E. and biblical context as background for considering the modern Atlantic slave trade (that only became illegal only in the nineteenth century). In Part II, other presenters addressed the Christian role in fighting to outlaw that trade and human enslavement in England and America. Both subjects set the stage to consider in Part III the grim realities of human oppression, trafficking, and slavery today that continue relentlessly in our own back-yards.
