Work in Progress: August 2008
http://w0rk-in-progress.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, 28 August 2008. Why sin is like a big mac. It looks so appealing. So tender… so juicey… so satisfying…. In the advert it looks like everything a hamburger should be. Succulent. Flavoursome. Filling. . The advert whispers all kinds of promises. They sound so reasonable. So enticing. The picture is convincing. My mouth begins to water. And yet - if I think back - I know the truth.

Monday, 2 March 2009. Is there anything wrong with short-selling? Stewardship and the importance of capital being both productive and risk-bearing (2). Following on from a previous post. I want to quickly look at how the Bible addresses the ethics of short selling for investment purposes. What is the Christian response to short selling?

Thursday, 18 September 2008. We all have faith (according to the Onion). Link to the Onion on Darwinism.

Are gently poking fun. . Labels: Conversations with Co-workers. When ...
