day to day pours for fourth speech

Looked at Psalm 19 in Sunday's message. (listen here!) Amazing text!

Josh Erdman said the message reminded of this 1977 video he'd seen. I had seen it, too. Of course it was on youtube. Worth 9 minutes of your time. I was thinking this thing needs to be remade today. What are your thoughts?

Man's Beastliness

Man without God is a beast, and never more beastly
than when he is most intelligent about his beastliness.

--Whittaker Chambers--

In yesterday's message I talked about the extreme and extremely influential views of Peter Singer. Brothers and sisters, I think we've got a moral responsibility to know what this guy is up to since the New Yorker has called him "the most influential philosopher alive." So here's an acticle from World Magazine. . .

Peter Singer

And an assignment . . . after reading the article, comment on which of Singer's extreme views is most troubling to you and why.

unlimited lifespans

I referenced The Immortality Institute in today's exposition of Psalm 8. Here's the video I mentioned.



I'm only partially through it, but the first 3 minutes were pretty disturbing to me. . . . "Maybe we will choose to transcend our humanness, and become cyborgs." Yikes!

What happens when we all start living forever? Talk about a population problem!

Is this not just the Tower of Babel all over again. . . humankind's latest attempt to build a tower to the heavens. . . . one more form of self salvation independent from God?

What are your reactions and thoughts? What does it mean to be human?


(BTW, I had no idea that Google Video had 1 hr 45 min videos. I think YouTube has a 10 minute limit!)
