Falwell’s Fall from Grace

Last updated on: August 25, 2020 at 11:53 pm By Kermit Zarley

Reuter’s first reported today that Jerry Falwell Jr., the president of Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, along with his wife Becki, has been involved in a sexual scandal, and because of it he resigned his presidency this evening. It is a salacious, depressing story about an evangelical leader that I’d rather not even report. Giancarlo Granda, a 29-year old post-graduate of Georgetown University, has admitted to having an eight-year affair with Falwell’s wife Becki of which Jerry not only approved... Read more

Dustin Johnson Wins Northern Trust

Last updated on: August 23, 2020 at 8:36 pm By Kermit Zarley

Dustin Johnson did just like the weather and blew away the field today by shooting an eight-under par 63 at TPC Boston to win The Northern Trust by a whopping eleven strokes for his 22nd victory on the PGA Tour. He also became #1 in World Rankings and now leads the FedEx Cup. Harris English finished a distant second place. Johnson’s 72-hole total of 254 was only one stroke shy of the all time lowest 72-hole score ever shot on... Read more

Dustin Johnson Leads Northern Trust by Five

Last updated on: August 22, 2020 at 4:04 pm By Kermit Zarley

Dustin Johnson continued his stellar play at the PGA Tour’s Northern Trust golf tournament near Boston today by a shooting 6-under par 65 to increase his lead to five strokes, at 22-under par, over Scottie Scheffler and Harris English, who are at 17-under par. Johnson birdied the par-three 17th hole and then canned a 40-foot eagle putt on the par-five 18th hole without even breaking a smile, as if it was just a matter-of-fact. If Johnson can keep up his...

Dustin Johnson Leads Northern Trust

Last updated on: August 22, 2020 at 3:51 pm By Kermit Zarley

Long-hitting Dustin Johnson moved into the lead again this week, after leading the PGA Championship two weeks ago in San Francisco. And in doing so today, he was part of new history-making on the PGA Tour. Rookie Scottie Scheffler and Dustin Johnson shot 59 and 60, respectively, today on the par 71 TPC Boston golf course in Norton, Massachusetts. It was the two lowest scores that two players have ever shot on the same day in a PGA Tour tournament.... Read more

Will COVID-19 Help Sink Communism in China?

Last updated on: August 20, 2020 at 11:41 pm By Kermit Zarley

When I was in college, many moons ago, I had a charismatic, likable, political science professor who repeatedly and adamantly proclaimed that communism was destined to fail because it was a non-transparent system, unlike how democracy usually works. At that time, 1961, the U.S. and the communistic Soviet Union–which had its roots in the Russian Revolution by the Bolshevik Party in 1917–were getting seriously involved against each other in the Cold War, which went on for decades. And China had... Read more

Overpopulation?

Last updated on: August 18, 2020 at 12:19 pm By Kermit Zarley

The beginning of the Bible says (NRSV), “God created humankind in his image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. God blessed them, and God said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiple, and fill the earth and subdue it” (Gen 1.27-28). Bible readers generally have understood this pronouncement as a universal command that applies in a general sense to all of future humankind. This is certainly how religious Jews have understood it down... Read more

Trump Favors Oil Companies, Even Regarding Birds

Last updated on: August 15, 2020 at 10:04 am By Kermit Zarley

President Trump is always calling the giant wind turbines that are contributing to renewable energy in many places of the country “windmills” that “kill the birds.” But when it comes to oil companies killing the birds, Trump’s okay with that. Why? The oil companies have been big financial supporters of this president. The Washington Post reported Wednesday, “A federal judge in New York has invalidated rule changes by the Trump administration that allowed individuals and corporations to kill scores of... Read more

You Can’t Make School Teachers Go Back to Work

Last updated on: August 15, 2020 at 9:24 am By Kermit Zarley

U.S. President Donald Trump, the former real estate mogul who never governed, has been saying all summer long that schools must reopen despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic that has now killed nearly 170,000 Americans in five months and threatens to kill perhaps 300,000 by year’s end. But the government can’t make teachers go back to work. Not only can they quit teaching, they have teachers’ unions. And each of the nation’s school districts’ staffs may have something to say about... Read more

Collin Morikawa Wins PGA Championship

Last updated on: August 9, 2020 at 10:44 pm By Kermit Zarley

Twenty-three year old Collin Morikawa won the PGA Championship today, the first of four majors of this virus-shortened year, by two strokes today with a final round 6-under par 64, the lowest round of the day. In this his first year on the PGA Tour, it put him in some very elite status, being tied with three others who were the youngest winners of the PGA Championship at 23-years of age: Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, and Rory McIlroy. Sweet-swinging Morikawa... Read more

Dustin Johnson Leads PGA Championship

Last updated on: August 8, 2020 at 8:54 pm By Kermit Zarley

Dustin Johnson was one of three players who shot 65, five-under par 70, at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco today to take a one stroke lead into tomorrow’s final round in the PGA Championship, the first of the four major championships of the year in this delayed PGA Tour season due to Covid-19. And that was despite a double-bogey 6 on the par four ninth hole, which used to be a short par five many moons ago. Scottie Scheffler... Read more
