Here on Veritas Domain, we desire to continually critique or popular culture from a Christian perspective, in the midst of everything else we do. When we look at most movies in Hollywood, we see so many of them being very sinful. Yet, Surprise! Moral movies draw 7 times the fans If the movie industry [...]
Challies: What Every Parent Needs to Know About Video Games
Posted in Book Review, Books, Christianity, Parenting Issues, Presuppositional Apologetics, Video Games on September 30, 2006 | 1 Comment »
Challies.com discusses his interest in video games, most of them I enjoyed also (X-Com: UFO Defense, and Civilization), and summarizes Richard Abanes’ new book What Every Parent Needs to Know About Video Games. I would be very interested to read about video games from a presuppositional perspective. In his post, he boils the book down [...]
Instant Soup and God

A girl asked the question, “If God is love why is there hell?” The question argues against God’s existence, love’s existence, or both. Dealing with the argument against God’s existence, this question’s logic will always be foolish because the assumptions are foolish. Therefore the examples, will be foolish to imagine because they’re foolish to begin [...]
The Story Behind Veggie Tales
Posted in Christian News, Christianity, Current Affairs, Finances, Veggie Tales on September 29, 2006 | 1 Comment »
I was inspired after reading a post about NBC’s decision to censor parts of the video series, Veggie Tales. The post suspected that Phil probably did it for the money. Upon further searching I found an article by Christianity Today, revealing that Big Idea Productions, the original animation studio, was sued for breach of contract [...]

Stuart Delony writes about the Fox’s creation of a new division: FoxFaith. I was surprised upon visiting their website that they were selling the DVD End of the Spear, produced by Bearing Fruit Communications. Perhaps they bought the rights to the DVD? Upon further exploration I found “Hollywood turns to divine inspiration” from USAToday.com. Follow [...]

Posted in Current Affairs, Hugo Chavez on September 29, 2006 | Leave a Comment »
BBC News (my favorite source of news), has an article basically saying Portugal asked Hugo Chavez to take down campaign posters with Portugal’s Prime Minister Jose Socrates. What I thought was hilarious was the end of the article: Other campaign posters include Mr Chavez with Cuban President Fidel Castro and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Some [...]

EDUCATION: PRIMARILY PARENTS RESPONSIBILITY

Concerning my entry on High Schooler’s and Rigorous Bible Studies, I recieved a feedback response that I thought was worth sharing: Parents should be asking their children what they learned in Children’s church. Both mother and father should be signing up at least once a month to help out with chilren’s activities… Now having a [...]

Whether the investor investing in stocks, or Christian investing in the kingdom, don’t get caught up on numbers alone. In an article by Robert Kiyosaki about investing in silver, Robert characterizes people that look only at the prices. Though Robert attempted to explain why the prices would go up, it was only after the prices [...]

I Hate Icebreakers

A recruiter in the Marines once placed a bunch of placards in front of me and asked me, “If you could only choose 3 reasons why you wanted to join the Marines, what would they be?” One of the items I choose was brotherhood. I once made the observation that whenever I’m back with the Marines, it [...]

You might go, huh? I read this from American Vision’s website, an article by Gary DeMar that I thought was indicative of our churches at large: Studies have shown that most of Christianity’s converts are teenagers.6 They also show that a high percentage of these same teenagers walk away from their childhood faith as they [...]
