Comment on Who are the evangelicals? by hypocritical4u

Religious discourse requires subjectivity acknowledging itself as such, rather than as something more. I recommend the following post: http://deligentia.wordpress.com/2009/11/03/objective-vs-subjective-a-matter-of-biblical-hyperbole/

Comment on Devastating Typhoons Hit Baguio City, Philippines by Joey

Hi Emma,

I’m not living in Baguio right now. I’m working in Thailand at the moment. My sister told us that it is safe to go but life is difficult. Baguio is isolated because of the landslide that happened at the major roads going up there. Gasoline is in limited supply and the stocks in the groceries are dwindling. Any goods coming from the lowland are not readily available. Perhaps it will take another month for the place to fully recover.

Thanks for the comment though and God bless.

Comment on Devastating Typhoons Hit Baguio City, Philippines by Emma

I was wondering if you have any info on the state of the region as of now. All you see on the internet news sites is the devastation, so it is hard to tell what percentage of the area has really been hit by all of this. Is it completely unsafe and unvisitable by visitors from the US? Or is the devastation only in a small percentage of the baguio region and the rest is ok? Are the roads almost back to normal? Your response is MUCH appreciated and needed. Thank you

I found Brueggemann focus on separating Psalms in orientating, disorientating and re-orientating particularly helpful.

Hi Terry,

Thanks for the comment. I am doing a sporadic posting on my reading of Praying the Psalm. So there will be more posts with regards to this.

Blessings

Comment on Eschatology Quiz by Joey

hi jm,

You observed rightly and I agree. It seems the quiz categorized you as Moltmannian if your answers do not correspond to any of the millenniarist views (pre, post, amil). The quiz has been around for long. If I was not mistaken Richard of Sub Ratione Dei created that quiz.

Thanks for the comment thought. And blessings!

I don’t know if this quiz uses “Moltmannian Eschatology” in a very (VERY) broad sense or not but it seems many who take the quiz are scored as high in the “Moltmannian” category.

The Psalms are truly

Comment on U2 and Aung San Suu Kyi by Joey

Hi Jason,

I listen to U2 but didn’t really follow their tour or news about it. I like Bono and I admire Aung San Suun Kyi but never had any idea that they “come together.” It’s just a news to me.

Thanks a lot… we are doing well here.

Joey,

Is there a particular reason why you were surprised by this news, or was it just new news to you.

I trust that you and yours are well.
