    Joe Biden's Godless Quarter Design

    No, the article doesn't credit Joe Biden. The reference was to Biden's support for putting Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill. Nothing to do with the quarter.

    Pastor sues church member for 10 million dollars

    Well, there either is or isn't a lawsuit; an alleged lawsuit is a nonsequitor. It sounds like he found some attorney hungry enough to try to get a big settlement, because if this goes to court he's toast.

    Family 35 Greek Text of the New Testament.

    To put Pickering's thesis simply, he believes that Family 35 (believed by others to be a recension compiled perhaps in the 12th or 13th century) and that the original text of the New Testament has been preserved in those manuscripts, not the Received Text or the Majority Text. "I hold a copy of...

    English Translations before 1611

    To say Greek was a forgotten language in Western Europe would be going to far, but its use had declined as the Byzantine Empire shrank. It wasn't until the 15th century that Greek began to be widely studied in the West as a result of scholars from Byzantium fleeing the Ottomans. Erasmus' Greek...

    Soon: The battle in “Carchemish”

    The Bible says whatever Konstantin thinks it should say, apparently. By and large, the "owners of money" like cheap oil, free trade and markets, like it or not, and have no reason to "destroy Russia."

    Your Five Favorite Bible Translations?

    Ignoring Bad Lyrics

    What about J.S. Bach's Mass in B Minor? He also used pieces of the Latin Mass (Gloria, Kyrie, Sanctus) as separate works.

    Did MacArthur deserve the Medal of Honor?

    Because it made him look bad. MacAthur's subordinates were not allowed in the spotlight. That's one reason the ETO commanders are better known than their Pacific counterparts.

    Churchill and WWI

    My account says nothing about blame. It is a fact that Fisher took the fall for the fiasco and Churchill was soon thereafter forced out of the Admiralty. It is true that Churchill was not responsible for the disastrous Gallipoli campaign, but it also is true that the attempt to run the...

    Churchill and WWI

    Have you read "Dreadnaught"? It's an account of Churchill's collaboration with John Fisher, First Sea Lord, to re-create the Royal Navy (which ended with the disaster at Gallipoli).
