Critique of Secular Humanism from a Christian Perspective: 23 Theses
Below are 23 theses I offer in criticism of modern Western Liberal Secular Humanist culture. I offer them because Christians need to arm themselves to evangelise the religion of the West: Liberal Secular Humanism. I offer them to Secular Humanists to try and point...
A Christian Critique of the Humanist Manifesto
There are seventeen articles in the second edition of the Humanist Manifesto published in 1973. It embodies in a hard form what is the default 'religion' of the Western world. A more modern version was published in 2003 which was the result (with the first) of...
Extended Commentary on Ephesians 6:10-20
You may have noticed here in my blogs that I speak often about conflict, confrontation, the cultural battle, and the need for a more muscular Christianity. Invariably, when the themes of 'struggle' are raised in Christian circles, many quickly reference a particular...
Muscular Christianity and the Christians of Iraq and Syria!
I am writing to my brothers and sister in the following communions: The Assyrian Church of the East; Chaldean Catholic Church; Syriac Orthodox Church; Ancient Church of the East; Syriac Catholic Church; Assyrian Pentecostal Church; and by extension; I offer this...

Christians, for now, live across the whole of the globe. With tears in my eyes, I fear that this will not be the case before my life ends. Christianity is set to move from a truly global faith to a regional faith, as a world beset with problems and rabid Christophobia...
Christians Need to Create Families and Here is How; Give up the Romantic Model!
There is a crisis occurring in the Church, at least as far as I have seen during my lifetime; a crisis that the so-called Church leaders have unsuccessfully addressed. In my estimation, they have had no vision. Harsh words, I know, but please read on. In 2014...
The Political Idolatry of Christians and How to Cure It

The Crucifixion of our Lord: John and the Synoptics
Introduction: One Sunday at Speakers' Corner recently, I found myself flummoxed when I knew the answer to a question that was raised but could not express it. It was not, as you would say, on the tip of my tongue. So, consider this my penance and an attempt to engrave...
