Well, I suppose the nice thing is the problem we had was net related, not related to our new set up. The equipment we have installed and set up in the new RV worked fine, but the net kept dropping out on us. I will have to set up Starlink as a back up for Thursday. Anyway, we talked a bit about the unit, the upcoming trip, and then played a clip from a fellow from Texas demonstrating how not to handle Scripture relating to the recent eclipse. Then we looked at Trump’s statement on abortion, a unanimous decision from the Arizona Supreme Court, and a brief look at the new Vatican statement on human dignity.

Current Events Today on A Brief Skype DL
Rich Pierce, , The Dividing Line
On today’s program James gave a brief review of his dialogue with Shawn McCraney and then focused on current events. While discussing the recent school shooting he pointed out the corruption of society and the need to recognize evil in our midst. Then he read from an article about a 17 year old girl being taken from her parents because

The Relic of Relics
James White, , Roman Catholicism
This morning I noted Erik Raymond’s blog entry on relics here (Hi Erik!). There are few things more repulsive to the life-long Protestant than relics, and nothing more creepy than entering an old style traditionalist Roman Catholic church filled with skeletons and bones and the like. The relic trade continues to this day, despite how often modern Roman Catholics try

Tim Staples
James White, , The Dividing Line
Started off just wandering around a bit, including quoting @HonestToddler from Twitter, and then addressed some comments from Tim Staples from an edition of Catholic Answers Live from a few weeks ago, then addressed some pretty interesting comments by Pastor Bob Hadley against Calvinism, and then went back to the Calvinist Call In program with Michael Brown.

Continuing with Akin and False Charges of Ad-Hominem Argumentation
James White, , Roman Catholicism
I continue responding to Jimmy Akin and his blog articles. I am aware another has been posted, and given the string of, well, simply amazing comments posted as well, we once again observe the same kind of behavior we observed last year regarding the Catholic Answers forums and the Envoy forums. In any case, Akin continues, Notice that he’s begun

Southern Baptist Convention, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and Jimmy Akin on the Dividing Line
James White, , The Dividing Line
And when I say Jimmy Akin, I mean it. He called the program (right at the end…we went long to give him enough time). The first 40 minutes or so included clips from sermons at the Southern Baptist Convention and a discussion of the dogged unwillingness of many to address the important issues with any sense of seriousness; then we

The Brave RC Apologists at Envoy
James White, , Roman Catholicism
I was finishing up a few items on this “down day” after the debate (I am finally getting the hang of this: never schedule anything for the day after a debate—why did it take me 15 years to figure that out?) and getting ready to pack up and head down to New Jersey (Please, Lord, if you could, and I

A Dividing Line I Cannot Summarize!
James White, , Abortion, Christian Worldview, Eschatology, Homosexuality, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism
We have a guy at Apologia who posts hilarious out-of-context quotes from the sermon on our member’s page. I need someone like that to listen to every Dividing Line and come up with a brief, yet usable, title, because with programs like today, I just have no idea. We covered the Washington State law that would allow the state to
