    "Failure to launch." 

    That is the phrase used these days for adults, or rather kidults that fail to grow up into mature adults. The issue of "Failing to launch" is reaching major proportions and will still be discussed for a long time!

    Dr. Al Mohler writes,
    "The reason for this [discussion] becomes clear once you read the essay. Henig lets her readers understand the scale of the issue — we are not talking about a passing phenomenon that is linked to the economic recession. We are talking about a...
  • Show your support for the Right to Know Campaign today! ACTION item!
    The South African government is busy looking at the Secrecy Protection of Information Bill. I wrote about this in my post called "South Africa soon to experience its own Body Snatchers." In this post I wrote: "The problem with any government, is that as soon as the government starts intervening in the area of the free flow of information (FFOI), it is usually (read: almost always) because the

  • Torture more effective than waterboarding (or, Why Idols should be banned!)
    There are many liberals, and neo-liberals, that want waterboarding of the enemy to be stopped as a method of interrogation because it is too hard on the enemy! Well, what about the unsuspecting TV watchers that must endure this? ⇓ Maybe this is an alternative as a method of interrogation! BAN IDOLS!

  • Times Live poll essentially misleading
    As polls go, the Times Live latest poll is as misleading as most polls normally are. The poll wants to know who you will vote for as president of South Africa. They only have 3 clowns choices in their poll: Jacob Zuma Zwelinzima Vavi Julius Malema All that this poll will establish is which one of these is most liked by people, clearly not who they would prefer to be president. It is like asking,

  • South African black taxi driver kills 9 school children

And be nice to the taxi driver," before a black taxi driver killed 9 school children when he drove his taxi in front of an oncoming train.

  • Life means nothing in South Africa
    Are you next? Here are just a few stories of murderous crime committed in South Africa over the last few days: Dad killed in garage heist Gran, four kids hacked to death Dad takes bullet for his kids Bloem businessman shot dead This is not the country that celebrated the FIFA 2010 World Cup just more than a month ago!

  • The regression of the modern gospel in pictures

    I know that the images above are usually used for another story, but when someone at work emailed them to me, it made me think of the state of the preaching of the gospel in the modern church.

    It is amazing how the gospel has been emasculated from the truth of God's wrath on sinners and the resultant death of Christ as a propitiation towards God for sinners to "God has a wonderful plan for your life!" or "You are not as bad as those fundamentalists say you are!" or "It doesn't matter...
  • In God's foreknowledge, does He just foresee who will believe?
    Does God use His divine binoculars
    to 'look' into the future and elects
    based on what He sees?
    In 2005 I wrote a post on God's foreknowledge called: "Who's free? God or man? A study on the 'choices' of man in salvation."

    Does God simply foresee who would choose Him and predestines them to salvation, or is His foreknowledge active in the predestination of the elect? Is man "free" to choose God?
  • Strikes in South Africa show the heart of a brutal nation
    In a previous post on the strikes in South Africa I wrote: Image courtesy of News24 "Striking in this country is never just a matter of downing tools. It inevitably leads to violence, intimidation, destruction and in several cases, death! This is a culture that the ANC bred under the previous government, and has lost control of since they took over the South African government."These strikes

  • South Africa just can't shake its two and a half world image
    The ANC dug its own grave South Africa's public service has ground to a halt due to strikes across all public service centers. Of course, striking is nothing new in South Africa, and it is a method that was used very effectively by the ANC before the 1994 elections. Now, the chickens have come home to roost, and the ANC has to deal with the very problems that they used to create for the
