On Politicians, Polling & the PressKedric Webster
From the British sitcom Yes, Prime Minister, some funny and, one could say, accurate portrayals of the three P's of the campaign season (or any season for that matter).

Machen on Religion and its "Usefulness"Kedric Webster
Though these words by J. Gresham Machen are dated and some of the players have changed (i.e. the liberal church in the U.S. of the 1920s, though similar, is very different today), I believe them to still be significant to today's social environment in the U.S. Nationalism can come in many forms.
It can be said reverently that the Christian longs for heaven not only for his own sake, but also for the sake of God. Our present love is so cold, our present service so weak; and we would one day love and serve Him as His love deserves. It is ...

Star Trek's Reaction to...Star TrekKedric Webster
These are some humorous Youtube clips of Star Trek TNG, Deep Space Nine and Voyager crew members watching J.J. Abrams' version of Star Trek. I have to go along with their assessment.
For all the good qualities of the movie, every time I hear the "Romulan" captain, Nero, yell at Captain Pike, "Don't tell me it didn't happen! I saw it happen!" like some repeat of Kiefer Sutherland in 24, I just want to throw something at the screen.

The Apollo 8 Genesis ReadingKedric Webster
"There are some of us who have become convinced that the pathway of true progress leads to the feet of Jesus Christ; that, consecrated to his service, the wonderful scientific achievements of the present day, in which we rejoice, far from being, as increasingly they are now threatening to become, the instruments of human slavery, may become the instruments of human liberty." -- J. Gresham Machen

Prophetic words that bring new creationKedric Webster
"The investment of the prophet with heavenly authority to shape the historical course of the kingdom of God in the midst of the kingdoms on earth in the name of the royal Lord of the council was a renewal of the original assignment to man of a God-like dominion over the world, adapted now, of course, to the redemptive situation. It was an act of re-creation in the glory-image of God." (Meredith Kline, Images of the Spirit, p. 60)
The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad; the desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus; 2 it ...

Carl Sagan's OdysseyKedric Webster
The Cosmos is all that is or ever was or ever will be. Our feeblest contemplations of the Cosmos stir us — there is a tingling in the spine, a catch in the voice, a faint sensation of a distant memory, as if we were falling from a great height. We know we are approaching the greatest of mysteries.
The size and age of the Cosmos are beyond ordinary human understanding. Lost somewhere between immensity and eternity is our tiny planetary home. In a cosmic perspective, most human concerns seem insignificant, even petty.
And yet our ...
