Hello, World!

Hello, World!

I’m the new guy. For my first post as a co-blogger on Walking Christian, I’d like to talk briefly about the little piece of silicon in the picture.

This is part of Intel’s new product line, called “Haswell”. Standard Intel selling points apply here – lower power consumption, increased clock speed, more cores[1] – but the really interesting thing is the general development path Intel uses.

Haswell is a “tock”, the second half of Intel’s “tick-tock” method; the tick introduces a new, smaller fabrication process, while the tock gives us a new microarchitecture. This means that Haswell is the first set of chips designed specifically for the 22nm fabrication process.

WC needs to have daily posts, but in order to do that I need to make less lengthy posts. Daring Fireball is an example of how I’d like WC to work as it regularly links to other articles with small commentary on the bottom and on some occasions does a special full length post on a particular issue. So WC will turn into a Tumblog of sorts, which is good because I purposely designed WC so that it could function as one in the future if need be. I could look for co-bloggers but unfortunately, I do not know of anyone that would be able to help. There we have it then, enjoy the smaller posts!

Equality = Equality

Equality = Equality

Stay equal my friends! Love has no boundaries, remember that. As long as it is consented or desired by both parties, who is to say that it is wrong? After all, our righteous role models (Canaanites) had sex with animals for their gods, but we now know better than them – we are the gods. Lucifer, our fictional father, was right from the very beginning. He may not exist but we do, and together we make Satan real and God dead. If hell exists, it is our paradise! Now rise my fellow equalitarians, the demise of conservative Christian oppression is before us.

Quick Thoughts on Biola’s “Neuroscience and the Soul” Conference

Quick Thoughts on Biola’s “Neuroscience and the Soul” Conference

This past week has been nothing but a constant blast, but as a result I have been too busy and too tired to make posts. I’m now preoccupied with applying for college and getting all the financial aid necessary to double major in computer information systems and philosophy so I’m going to make this post short, which is probably all that needs to be said anyway. First I want to thank Rinku and Alfredo for making this trip possible. Rinku provided the transportation and was kind enough to pay for my food expenses because I am low in money right now. Alfredo helped work out the details and his aunt allowed me to stay at her home. I really owe them one!

As I Lay Dying Singer Tim Lambesis Arrested for Alleged Murder Plot

As I Lay Dying Singer Tim Lambesis Arrested for Alleged Murder Plot

In what is perhaps the biggest news in christian music today, Tim Lambesis has been arrested for allegedly attempting to hire someone to murder his estranged wife:

Tim Lambesis, 32, was arrested at a shop in Oceanside, Southern California yesterday according to a statement released by the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department. He was detained on suspicion on hiring an undercover detective to murder his estranged wife Meggan, who is believed to have started legal proceedings for divorce last September.

LAPD Police Chase Near 7/11

Last night I was caught up near a swarm of 20+ police cars; it was crazy. At first it was a car chase that went in the opposite direction of where they caught him, but then he suddenly came back and decided to get out of his car near the 7/11 that I was at. Before some undercover cops just blew past the 7/11 driveway and were chasing this guy down. He must have been a serious criminal. You can see the dude jumping out of his car and running as the cops go on foot and chase after him.

Seriously though, it felt like a movie was happening right before my eyes with all the action and moving around that was happening. I should’ve done a better job of recording the scene by getting out of the car, but I didn’t want to be caught up in a possible shoot out. This isn’t the worst that I have seen though, as I was once at a church where a good deal of gun shots were fired. The LAPD came BLOWING with over 50+ cops, it was quite a scene to behold. Has anyone else been in a situation like this?

Prayers For Boston

Prayers For Boston

In light of the recent tragic events that have occurred in Boston, I think we as Christians should take the time to pray for those who have been affected by this and do our part to help any of the people out there who need that support. As I watched the images on my computer, I could only imagine what it would be like if I was there instead. The closest I have been to danger was in a gang shoot out near the church I was at, but even that does not compare to compare to this tragedy. Let’s pray together and remember that anyone of us could have died instead on that day:

Dear Loving Father, 

We know you know all things and will use all things for good in accord to your grande purpose.  Please comfort those in this disaster with your love and if they have not turned to you then please use this event to turn their hearts of stone into hearts of flesh. May they see the truth and be granted eternal life in your Son’s name.

This life is fleeting and fragile, no one can escape death unless He who overcame death gives us life. Not everyone who lives deserves life, but not everyone who dies deserves death. We know you have the love and power to make things right as you already have done on that cross.

So please continue to use us in any way to be a light to the world. May we recognize that our life here is temporary and we as sinners deserve death as a result. But in your mercy and grace we live today not so that we can continue in our pointless activities but to make a difference in the world for your name’s sake. Thank you, Lord.

In Jesus’ name,

Amen

What Has America Become?

What Has America Become?

I couldn’t have said it better myself. Both parties, regardless of which one you adhere to, have failed this country. The political powers that be are not the only ones at fault however, we are just as responsible for indulging in sin and letting this happen without a fight. We have privatized our faith in order to be politically correct but a faith that is privatized is a faith that has no light. True followers of Christ will fight for what is right to the end. Compromising our beliefs (such as accepting homosexuality, pornography, premarital sex, etc) is only of the devil, it will weaken our witness and we will be just like the rest of the world.

How to Respond to Biblical Errors

This is the framework by which you can respond to most biblical errors. It’s important to keep in mind that the Bible is not written for the 21st century reader in mind, it must be read carefully within its time period. Merely finding two verses that seem to be in conflict with each other is not enough, that is more or less the same as proof texting. Rather, you need to use the historical grammatical approach in order to properly understand this text before criticizing it. All the so called errors or contradictions that I have come across can be resolved with these simple principles.
