One should be mindful of not being a stumbling block to a fellow Christian. However, at some point this concern can become an excuse to meddle in an individual's private affairs. And what about the codification of arbitrary standards commonly referred to as legalism itself becoming a stumbling block?

After blowing $900 on a Valentine's Dinner (more than most Americans spend on vacations in these troubled economic times if they go on vacations at all anymore), President Obama and the First Lady each set out on journeys to separate recreational destinations. Yet it is the average American that the President condemns of eating what they want, driving around in SUV's and heating their homes to 70 degrees and whose supporters insist the individualism embodied by such acts will bring about the extinction of the human species.

Screenwriter Tony Kushner claimed that the ideologies promoted by the Reagan administration pose a threat to the idea of human COMMUNITY and the very survival of the species. In other words, Reaganism undermined the notion how the collective is entitled to ever increasing percentages of your stuff. Isn’t Kushner confusing principled individualism with the gay marriages of the type of which he is a participant?

The cover of the 2/25/13 issue of New Republic consists of a blank background with words written in gray reading "The Republicans: The Party Of White People". Would the editors of this screed posses the backbone to publish an issue titled "The Democrats: The Party Of Black People" or "The Party Of Jewish People"? And even if the Republican Party was the party of White people, why is that something inherently evil? Ironically, it is only White people that despise being White that make such a fuss over such things. Do not those of other racial backgrounds and ethnicities have political organizations lobbying on behalf of their interests? So why are Whites expected to bend over and have what they've worked for pulled out of their backsides?

So is this going to be some Dallas type plot twist on the revived 80's prime time soap opera? If actress Judith Light was born in 1949 and is not really wearing any kind of makeup appliance to look considerably older than what she is in real life, isn't it a stretch of credulity to have Mitch Peliggi play her son when the actor was born in 1952?

In a sermon, a pastor gave an example of where Japanese volunteers were called upon to go on a suicide mission for the glory of the emperor. On this mission, each solider would at most be able to cut one or two pieces of barbed wire before being gunned down by the enemy. The pastor read favorably in essence how it was shameful that Christians weren't as dedicated. While one might be called upon to sacrifice much for the Lord, is it really proper for those in leadership to manipulate those under their authority by claiming that God told the authority figure to tell the mere lackey for the lackey to throw their life away? Why is such fanaticism held up as the ideal rather than struggling through the mundane drudgery of everyday existence?
The Navy SEAL wanting his full retirement should put in his full time like everybody else. Is it that he can't find a job or that he's not going to be told what to do outside the military by mere civilians. According to the logic of a Navy SEAL, should someone get full Social Security if they theoretically applied for it four years before being entitled to do so?

Wikipedia says that Kang the Conqueror was one of Doctor Doom's descendants but that his last name is Richards. That must have been some tense wedding since it would mean that a female in Victor's lineage married someone from the Fantastic Four. Wonder if they would have gotten hitched just for spite.

DC Comics plans to glorify the Occupy Movement in a new series called "The Movement". So will the oppressively wealthy denounced in the storyline include DC Comics itself that threatens with legal action independent graphic narrative writers and artists that unwittingly use the term "superhero"? As Greg Gutfeld remarked on Fox News, will this hero's powers include the ability to hurl his own feces, a tactic often utilized by activists at these protests?
Geraldo announced on The O'Reilly Factor that he is a Republican ahead of his possible announcement to run for a U.S. Senate seat in New Jersey. I wonder how long he has held that conviction. These are the kinds of milksop candidates you are going to end up with when ethnicity is placed before ideology.

An article in the 2/1/13 issue of the Sword of the Lord details why the publication doesn’t recommend the works of C.S. Lewis. Interesting that, along with that explication as to the shortcomings of these texts, there was no call for Independent Fundamentalist Baptists to try their own hand at doctrinally improved speculative fiction. Nor was there an examination as to why the presuppositions of this particular religious movement have resulted in theologians and scholars coming up short in the realm of literary imagination.
