Been to the Lab twice this week (so far). Ugh. Finishing up all the paperwork from my last major project with the Pentagon.
Switching focus now to (1) the evolution of strategy in the war on terror; and (2) a comparative eschatology of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Been reading The Rapture Exposed by Barbara Rossing. A liberal reaction to dispensational theology (sort of). Basically, this gal watched the "Left Behind" series and wrote a book to refute it. Her work is a determined attempt to ignore the Bible's prophetic program, because it's too disturbing. Because she finds bloodshed repugnant, she simply re-interprets Scripture. When the Bible says, "War", it really means "Peace". When it says "Blood", it really means "Feathers and lollipops." When it says "Judgment", the proper interpretation is "Warm hugs."
Where DO these people come from? Why don't they just say, "I hate the Bible and I refuse to believe it!" At least that would be honest.
Anyways, Peter's coming over tonight, so soon you will be reading about my decisive victory over him.
Zanne and Joe went out to the property, and apparently they have laid down gravel where the footers will soon be poured. Wootness!
And now for the GOOD news!
"These things are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing, you might have life through His Name."
That's me!

About Me
- RRLeonhard
- Born and raised in Pennsylvania. My Dad was a 30 year man with IBM, and a veteran of WWII (Army Air Corps). He died in 1999. My Mom raised four kids--three losers and me, the superstar (just kidding, guys), and then had a career in corrections before retiring. Now in her 80s, she's a social butterfly and my hero. I went to Valley Forge Military College and Penn State, and then served in the military for 24 years as an infantry officer. Retired from the Army and now serve on the Principal Professional Staff of The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory. I have a BA in History, MS in International Relations, Masters of Military Arts and Sciences, and a PhD in US History. I've written three books on military science, an unpublished horror novel, two booklets with the Lab, and lots of articles. I'm married to the best woman in the world and my other hero: Suzanne. I have five wonderful kids, three step-kids, three grand-kids, and SEVEN cats (don't ask) plus two more who are visiting. I love to study and teach the Bible, play chess, and wargame. I attend the best church in the world: Fellowship Bible Church in Winchester, VA.
