They’ve finally gone and done it. The whole same sex marriage thing is now legal in California. No doubt there will be other states to follow.
People wonder why it seems like so many things are, to use an old expression, “going to hell in a handcar” (only these days it’s more like a [...]

I just read something that needs some attention. It’s a Wired.com piece called “Air Force Aims for ‘Full Control’ of ‘Any and All’ Computers“.
Essentially, they’re working on developing a suite of software tools that will give them access to and full control over any type of computer they encounter.

Just in case anyone thought that Middle Eastern nations allow their citizens freedom of expression, take a look at this brief news item about a Syrian blogger. It shows clearly that the Syrians are among those nations who have yet to shed their mental corsets and realize that freedom of speech and expression is [...]

Digital Tattoo Interface?

May 17th, 2008

Christians who see this story about a new Digital Tattoo technology are very likely to wonder if this has anything to do with “The Mark” referred to in Revelation 13.
I don’t think that it is because they’re talking about installing it in your arm, not the forehead or right hand. Although if you add [...]

Theres a story on SeatlePI.com about an issue with cell phones that’s going to get bigger before it gets solved.
Basically it’s about cell phone networks releasing information to police without a warrant. Specifically location information. All that the police need do is say that it’s a life or death situation and they’re handing [...]

There’s a saying to the effect that those who ignore the lessons of history are doomed to repeat it. I saw something today that I have to say is very disturbing. It was a tagline somebody used on a post:
The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the [...]

Remember the FISA bill that the Senate tried to get passed that would have given immunity to telecoms for their participation in the illegal NSA domestic spying scandal? Well, it’s not quite dead yet. House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer has been talking deals with the “genius” behind that bill, Senator Rockefeller and is [...]

We’re moving farther and farther into the last days. One evidence of this is the growing trend of governments and law enforcement agencies to find more excuses to snoop on people. The latest in this trend is proposals by the German government that would allow video surveillance of private homes.
Oh, there’s all the [...]

Remember the big flap that’s been made about the National ID card that the government has been trying to foist off on us, requiring states to become “Real ID compliant”? This is the same “Real ID” that several states have refused to be part of. Well, if H.R. 5405 passes then it’s [...]

The NonExistant State

April 26th, 2008

What state is nonexistant? The so-called “Palestinian state”. The very same one that President Bush is voicing optimistic opinions that the peace process will “define” that state before he leaves office.
