Books by Cominus
My Prayer Closet (2011)
Under the Tower of Babel (1995)
Solomon wrote there will be no end of the writing of books. If he lived now, he would decry the endless cacophony of electronic verbiage. Page after page of endless, mindless tripe. People selling something; people saying something. No body reading anything! If the page doesn't have pictures, [click] the viewer is gone. Everyone is looking for entertainment. No one is looking for substance. But we keep on writing and we think someone will read it. Oh, how we deceive ourselves -- convinced of our own immortality. Words, words, words . . . - cominus

Throughout the campaign, Obama continually equated his mission with that of the Messiah and Returning King by spinning [...]

Swedes Confront Shift to Right
Amy Goodman’s editorial today is somewhat confusing. Her article generally espouses her leftist leanings but she ends the article with a warning against the leftward shift in America. The article titled, “Swedes Confront Shift To Right,” begins with recounting the origin of the Nobel Prize and the current celebration in Sweden. Then, she continues with [...]

Messiah Without Miracles
The 12 November issue of Adam Wilson’s blog at The Olympian begins with, “If you want a pick-me-up do not read the latest state revenue report. It’s a smorgasbord of negative numbers.” Then he continues with a list of lowered collections for Washington State tax revenues. I am sure he speaks for the majority when [...]
