How do those like me who believe in a recent creation and that the days of Genesis chapter one are actual solar (24 hour) days (see my article A Day is A Day) reconcile that with the time scientists say is necessary for starlight to travel to earth? Astrophysicist John Hartnett succinctly states the difficulty…
Read MoreMany years ago, I worked for the Rock Island Railroad, and I had Traveler’s health insurance, which is simply the best of the best. It was grand and paid everything.

Read MoreWhile there are genuine crises, the federal government has an insatiable penchant for making almost everything a crisis. Why?
