I was having a theological discussion with someone at Ethan‘s birthday party yesterday. A Christian man (very good guy, father of Ethan’s friend). We were talking about a case for Christ, the book I am currently listening to. He was surprised when I said I had no doubts about the authenticity of the gospels in terms of that they were written documents, written by who they are supposed to have been written by.
he then asked if I believed in the text in the literal sense. I said I could believe in the essence of it, but would impute a certain degree of hyperbole/legend/good exaggeration (to be distinguished from deceitful exaggeration/lies).
This then lead into a lengthy conversation about arguments in support of the actual literal accuracy of the text.
All of this a long-winded way of coming to the header of this post, Mark Levin’s interview with Pam Bondy on March 1, 2025.
I told my friend, in the context of that discussion, that from my own personal existence perspective, I’m not sure it would change anything if I believed the text literally versus metaphorically/spiritually. That I would still live my life as though there is a constant proverbial “eye in the sky” - a constant video recording (and potentially judging)me at all times, like a ring camera.
which is why I don’t understand how some people can do such about-faces and pretend they didn’t say the exact opposite yesterday.
The Internet is forever.
But even if it’s not captured, I still think it is forever, which forces a certain degree of intellectual and spiritual consistency if not necessarily in my views, which are prone to change/evolve overtime, at least in my methodology.
All that to say, Mark Levin folded faster than a cheap suit. And I’m very curious as to how he can reconcile his positions of March with his position of July.
And this is a relatively simple night, because we’re missing two of the three kids. Lol.
I did a quick hit on Richard Syrette yesterday. Gotta keep Canadians apprised of the U.S. madness.

Appearances
Art of the Day: The Baptism of the Rus, a moment so monumental, they made literary traditions and even films about it. The fresco dons the St. Vladimir Cathedral…in Kiev. Prince Vladimir’s conversion to Orthodox Christianity aligned the eastern Slavs toward the west culturally and away from the east. Guess where they were baptized? In the Denier River in the heart of Ukraine.
Wisdom of the Day: “Both for historical and institutional reasons, the U.S. political system—and, for that matter, much of the U.S. business community—is ill-suited for producing well-designed “grand strategies.” Kevin Phillips.
