  • Star Wars Analyzed By Aliens (Earthling Cinema)

    Given the earlier celebration of May the 4th this week, I thought we’d get back to film Friday with these videos from Earthling Cinema. In case you’re curious, the premise of these videos is that human culture no longer exists and an alien is explaining it to other aliens using the cultural artifacts of our movies.

  • March Badness, Ultimate Dad Jokes, Post Office Nightmares

    I watch quite a few YouTube and/or Vimeo videos. You might have picked up on this recently with the addition of Music Monday and Philosophy Friday which are primarily video based. Now, I’m going to start sharing my favorite three interesting/humorous videos from the week on Saturdays. This week, I’ve got a basketball fail compilation…

  • Music Monday: The Thundersnow Song

I recently came across another way: superhero comics.   You can follow Supergatari on Twitter, and pick up a copy of the book for only $3 over…

  • Tweets of The Week 6.8.13

    Better late than never, once again, this week’s tweets of the week: Today you’ll be tempted to assign to yourself strength you don’t have and try to do what you can’t do on your own. There’s grace for this. — Paul David Tripp (@PaulTripp) June 3, 2013 Comedic license ≠ stealing. This is something comedians…

  • The Unrelieved Paradox

    I remember it like it was yesterday. I was a completely green seminary student sitting in a class on research methods. It was being taught by the seminary librarian, and he happened to mention a theologian I hadn’t heard much, if anything about. His name (the theologian, not the librarian) was Franz Bibfeldt, and the…
