Lindsborger News: Franklin owned slaves, Dr. Weigl cured Nazis
http://lindsborgnews.blogspot.com/2014/07/franklin-owned-slaves-dr-weigl-cured.html
Sunday, July 27, 2014. Franklin owned slaves, Dr. Weigl cured Nazis. Thinking further about the issue of theologians (and philosophers) with less than savory pasts led me to be super sensitive to hypocritical sounding insights into the famous and thoughtful and whether or not their less than savory moments disqualify the whole of their thinking. Listening to Weekend Edition of Fresh Air. Would we, under any circumstances, dismiss Weigl's vaccine? Why then do we have qualms about the theology conveyed by ...

Lindsborger News: Keeping Up With My Medicine
http://lindsborgnews.blogspot.com/2013/07/keeping-up-with-my-medicine.html
Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Keeping Up With My Medicine. Doctors only see in part. Just like the rest ofus. Why did I think it any different? My experience with physicians has been broadening these past three years. In that time I've been to see. One general practice physician, two Physicians Assistants, four oncologists, one radiation oncologist, two orthopedic specialists. And three surgeons. That's not all the medical professionals I've encountered, but they are the people most likely to. At least in part.

Lindsborger News: Years End Feelings
http://lindsborgnews.blogspot.com/2013/12/years-end-feelings.html
Friday, December 20, 2013. It has been a long time since I posted to Lindsborger News. We've come to the end of the fall term and time to write the annual Christmas letter. I've delayed the task because I don't know what to write. It's been a tough year - with some victories in between. So should I write about the toughness or the victories? Same is true with the town. It's been a tough year with some victories for the town. Which do you write about when thinking about the year? Lindsborg Rotary Club 1559.

Lindsborger News: What Do You Do with a Drunken Sailor?
http://lindsborgnews.blogspot.com/2014/07/what-do-you-do-with-drunken-sailor.html
Saturday, July 26, 2014. What Do You Do with a Drunken Sailor? Fred Clark, who blogs at Patheos.com has raised the interesting question of how we should approach theology of those whose lives seem to betray their thought. In his post A Whiskey Priest is Not the Same as a Nazi. Clark discusses the moral failings of Paul Tillich and John Howard Yoder, referencing a post by Roger Olson, also on patheos.com. Does it matter to their ideas that Tillich was a womanizer and Yoder an abuser? We did not gloss over...

Lindsborger News: August 2013
http://lindsborgnews.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 11, 2013. Too Soon Too Much Too Little. Tomorrow, August 12, we begin our fall term. It is coming WAY too soon. I have at least 5 jobs at home that have barely been touched. These include home repair jobs and machinery jobs. I've just gotten a new laptop with Windows 8 and I'm not at all sure I'm ready to operate in a Windows 8 environment. I need another summer to catch up from all the things I didn't get done this summer because I was busy getting things done for the college. A Swedophil...

Lindsborger News: February 2013
http://lindsborgnews.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 3, 2013. A few left in great hurry. One woman dashed out of the auditorium and off to the gym. One child in one program and another in a second? I don’t know and couldn’t say. I don’t know what the interest was, but they were interested in him in the way that High School girls can be interested in High School Boys. He arrived. I had him sit and wait. Two of the three girls arrived and gushed. And then they checked messages on the phone. They checked messages on the phone! A Swedophile, I...

Lindsborger News: November 2012
http://lindsborgnews.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 25, 2012. There was a Senior chapel talk the Friday before Thanksgiving break. In this hermeneutic the Christian scriptures are a rich mine filled with nuggets of wisdom that can and should be drawn up to solve problems, end debate and close minds. “God said it, I believe it, that settles it for me” is the simplistic version of an evangelical hermeneutic adopted by many of our students, and probably not a few of our faculty. Our spiritual challenges are partly non-academic. Developin...

Lindsborger News: June 2012
http://lindsborgnews.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 26, 2012. The Scam That Almost Caught Me. I have almost been a victim of an incredibly expensive scam. It began last week when I put the Fusion on Cars.com. Since that posting I’ve had three brokers call offering to sell the car for a fee – each of them guaranteeing success in the sale. After the second broker call I received an email that began the scam. I was able to do that with confidence because his scam had followed the list Deb showed me nearly verbatim. Then I called Pay pal –...

Friday, December 7, 2012. I Want Out of Modern Marketing. Sears credit card accused me of being late on two months payment when I paid off the card. They got payment of the almost the whole balance a day after the due date. That left a small balance – and I thought I had a zero balance. They charged me late fees for both months. I protested. They fixed it and ended up giving me money back. I want out of modern marketing! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Friend of the site - Sign Up. A Swed...
