Generations: Convenience

http://jamescarvin.blogspot.com/2010/06/convenience.html

Thoughts by James Carvin about the past, the present and the future. Thursday, June 3, 2010. I had been in a holding pattern on 24/7 Scrolls. Waiting for another word from God, what direction to take, how much effort, if any, to put in. Never move without a plan, something definite. Or should I? I almost sent out a blog, relaying all these non-assertive thoughts. Should I act alone? Noah did. Elijah did. Jonah only had the assistance of a fish? What we really needed was a Convenience Store! What if inste...

Generations: Teaser

Thoughts by James Carvin about the past, the present and the future. Monday, May 3, 2010. The reasons I might personally be interested in ancient papyri and parchment are probably very different than for others. Everyone puts their spin on the news. Spinning history is no different. We pick up on the stories that magnify our beliefs and further our agendas. When enough people do it history changes while the facts don't. That bugs me. Shouldn't the facts and history be one and the same? But what does this...

Generations: Seeing Things

http://jamescarvin.blogspot.com/2010/05/seeing-things.html

Thoughts by James Carvin about the past, the present and the future. Wednesday, May 12, 2010. My sons are perplexed by the fact that I have an interest in ancient writing in languages they don't know (and I don't know well), and the history that gave birth to it all. Why don't I just spend my time like they do - watching fake wrestling on TV, keeping track of sports or music? Why can't I just be normal - like. Only what I see isn't dead people. It's just stuff most other people don't see. This may be ver...

Generations: What I saw in Eden

http://jamescarvin.blogspot.com/2010/09/what-i-saw-in-eden.html

Thoughts by James Carvin about the past, the present and the future. Wednesday, September 1, 2010. What I saw in Eden. Could the patriarchs, Adam and Enoch and Methuselah have prophesied concerning the cross of Christ and buried their message in a neolithic temple designed to survive the great flood? Archeologists are not likely to admit it, but it seems that may be the case. In this blog I'll consider that question. It points to Christianity? Did I say that? More prominent than the eagles, every worship...

Generations: April 2010

http://jamescarvin.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Thoughts by James Carvin about the past, the present and the future. Friday, April 30, 2010. Tomorrow I will be opening up a new web site and launching what I hope will be a new career, as the founder of 24/7 Scrolls and the curator of its first Reference Hall. You will be able to read up on it at 247scrolls.org. I've not been much of a blogger in the past. And I don't use MySpace or FaceBook or Twitter. No time for chit chat. But discussions of substance are another matter. The past has a way of drawing...

Generations: Jericho

http://jamescarvin.blogspot.com/2010/05/jericho.html

Thoughts by James Carvin about the past, the present and the future. Sunday, May 2, 2010. What was I thinking? My megalomania did its thing again. First, I'm writing a book and get frustrated because I don't have access to the Dead Sea Scrolls to do my research. Then I start thinking up ways I might gain access without paying for it. Then it occurs to me that while nobody would be willing to pay for the $10,000. Discoveries in the Judean Desert. After all, who am I? Everyone dreams of reeling in a shark,...
