Thursday Shout Out

February 9, 2006


12:09 PM While reading William F. Buckley’s literary autobiography Miles Gone By, I came across a wonderful quote that Buckley says he got during his days at Yale University. It comes from “a crusty academic believer” who was asked during the rise of Darwinism in the l800s, How can you still believe in God? He answered, “I find it easier to believe in God than to believe that Hamlet was deduced from the molecular structure of a mutton chop.” He’s right, of course. Those who prefer to believe in the mutton chop are free to do so.
8:41 AM Anthony Bollback has just posted the February issue of China Clippings.
8:38 AM Special thanks to everyone who responded to the Anchor for China project. We will receive donations for another week or two and then we will wire the money to the publisher.
8:34 AM Most of us have heard that “God is good all the time.” A friend told me to say it this way:
God is good …
All the time …
In every circumstance …
No matter what …
