Think About IT: Islam in Europe and Then in America

By Ronnie W. Rogers / October 8, 2011 / Comments Off on Think About IT: Islam in Europe and Then in America

Christian German news agency Idea reported, “A German hospital removed twelve crosses, supposedly due to objections from Muslim patients. Workers in the Bad Soden hospital near Frankfurt took off the crosses from the wall in front of the patients and put them in trash bags, which led to criticism by patients. Director Helmuth Hahn-Klimroth had…

Think About IT: Stephen Hawking Lives in Fear

By Ronnie W. Rogers / September 29, 2011 / Comments Off on Think About IT: Stephen Hawking Lives in Fear

Steven Hawking is acclaimed as the greatest scientific mind since Albert Einstein, which I have no reason to doubt; however, his erudition does nothing to bring peace to his soul, but rather launches him into pessimism and looking in all the wrong places for meaning and security. Hawking was questioned on CNN about why he…

My Blogs Have Been Rather Sparse

By Ronnie W. Rogers / June 1, 2011 / Comments Off on My Blogs Have Been Rather Sparse

Since leaving on sabbatical last May, my blogs have been rather sparse. However, this is not due to a lack of interest or lack of material. My absence has been due to expending all of my writing energy on finishing three books. The first one is at the publisher now. I expect it to be…

By Ronnie W. Rogers / November 2, 2010 / Comments Off on Why It is Immoral and Impossible to Exclude One’s Religious Views from the Public Square Debate?

As many of you know, I participated in the Oxford Round Table at Harris Manchester College in Oxford in July. I presented a paper entitled “A Proposal for a Proportional Accommodation and Appreciation Model For Governing the Relationship of Church and State.” I am presently working to make that paper into a book.

Think About IT: Difference in Practice and Law

By Ronnie W. Rogers / June 13, 2010 / Comments Off on Think About IT: Difference in Practice and Law

The reason secularists continue to seek removal of public expressions of faith such as “National Day of Prayer” or “In God We Trust” is because they have turned the First amendment on its head to mean no public expressions of faith whereas historically it actually protected that expression. Historically, the First Amendment limited only the…

Think About IT: Globalism vs. Globalization

By Ronnie W. Rogers / June 3, 2010 / Comments Off on Think About IT: Globalism vs. Globalization

Often these terms are used synonymously in order to promote globalism by demonstrating the undeniable and thereby summarily equating all dissenters with flat-earthers. The argument conflates globalization and globalism and is stated something like “Globalism is undeniable,” and demonstrates that by banding a few supposed indisputable evidences, e.g. the interconnectedness of commerce, communication, travel, etc.…

Think About IT: Planning Is Looking Better All the Time

By Ronnie W. Rogers / May 19, 2010 / Comments Off on Think About IT: Planning Is Looking Better All the Time

My sabbatical began by driving to Seaside, Florida, in order to perform a wedding. We planned to divide the trip into two days by getting a room for the night in Mobile, Alabama. Now, for some reason, we decided not to book a room in advance–I guess that decision was made in an adventurous moment…

Think About IT: The Europeanization of America

By Ronnie W. Rogers / May 13, 2010 / Comments Off on Think About IT: The Europeanization of America

I love to visit England and would be delighted to visit other European countries. However, this fondness for sojourning in Europe in order to drink from the abundant fountains of history is markedly distinct from a desire for the U.S. to become England’s twin. If my recollection of history is correct, there was a time…

Think About IT: Darwin, Eugenics, Compassion

By Ronnie W. Rogers / May 4, 2010 / Comments Off on Think About IT: Darwin, Eugenics, Compassion

Without a doubt, you are familiar with Hitler’s attempt to produce a better race by elimination of those with “inheritable undesirable traits”, which is known as negative eugenics whereas encouraging reproduction by persons with “inheritable desirable traits” is referred to as positive eugenics. Well, Darwinist were promoting and practicing the same thing in the United…
