Sounds Like Putin Wants Out

Last updated on: March 13, 2022 at 4:07 pm By Kermit Zarley

Russia and Ukraine held high-level talks today and, in contrast to all other such meetings, which have been many in only 18 days of war, both sides indicated they made progress. Under several false pretenses, on February 24th Russian troops amassed on the the mutual invaded and attacked the unprovoked, innocent, democratic “nation,” which Putin denies. The result has been that 2.5 million Ukrainians, almost all being women and children, have fled to neighboring countries to escape the path of... Read more

Putin Is right Now the Greatest Advertisement for Democracy

Last updated on: March 12, 2022 at 7:10 pm By Kermit Zarley

Putin’s War in Ukraine, and many things associated with it, is accomplishing exactly the opposite of his goal of promoting his view of authoritarian government in Russia. Vladimir Putin has given many speeches and written essays declaring how much he absolutely detests democracy and its human rights. Putin may be winning the war in Ukraine, but he is losing the war of authoritarianism versus democracy. And this loss will become greatly magnified when the Russian people eventually find out the...

My Grandpa Was Right: “You Can’t Trust the Russians”

Last updated on: March 9, 2022 at 11:41 am By Kermit Zarley

I posted three weeks ago, on February 19, what my Grandpa said to me when the Russians shot Sputnik up into earth orbit on October 4, 1957, “You can’t trust the Russians,” even though we were looking at it on TV. He was wrong about sputnik. Of course, those were the early years of the Cold War, and my grandpa had good reasons for believing that. Turns out my grandpa was right about right now. Early last year, the Russian... Read more

Three Studies Confirm COVID Originated in Wuhan Market

Last updated on: March 8, 2022 at 1:52 pm By Kermit Zarley

Three new, convincing studies support the original thesis that the coronavirus designated COVID-19 originated in the wet market named Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in the mega city Wuhan (population 11 million people) in China. This is what I documented in my book, Moses Predicted COVID-19. These studies involved multiple scientists including some from other countries besides the U.S., including one from China. Three Americans involved in both studies were Dr. Michael Worebey of Arizona State University, virologist Joel Wertheim of... Read more

Boris Johnson’s Assessment of Putin’s Ukraine War

Last updated on: March 8, 2022 at 11:20 am By Kermit Zarley

Russian forces continue to surround major cities in Ukraine to bombard and flatten them with constant heavy artillery and other explosives. Two million Ukrainians have fled the country’s total population of 44 million people in only two weeks. Ukraine’s military forces are putting up such a courageous fight, with their President Volodymyr Zelenskyy becoming such a hero. Yet the situation looks pretty bad for Ukraine. The UK’s Prime Minister Boris Johnson penned an op-ed piece yesterday in The New... Read more

Peter Bergen Slams Mike Pence

Last updated on: March 6, 2022 at 11:49 pm By Kermit Zarley

In my book, Bible Predicts Trump Fall, published last week, I thought I came down pretty hard on Mike Pence’s behavior as Trump’s vice president. I even said Pence violated an important principle in the Bible by accepting Trump’s invitation to be his vice president. Fort the apostle Paul wrote, “Be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers” (2 Corinthians 6.14). Paul meant that in things like marriage and business. I also said in the book that “in accepting this invitation,... Read more

Lindsey Graham Says of Putin, “Take this Guy Out”

Last updated on: March 6, 2022 at 1:47 pm By Kermit Zarley

Because of Putin’s War in Ukraine, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina wrote this week on Twitter concerning Russia’s President Vladimir Putin, “The only way this ends is for somebody in Russia to take this guy out. You would be doing your country–and the world–a great service.” Indeed! It was the same with Hitler. I used to think Lindsey Graham had his head on straight and therefore that he usually made a lot of sense. But when Donald Trump... Read more

Why Has the Church De-Emphasized Jesus’ Obedience to God?

Last updated on: March 5, 2022 at 9:09 pm By Kermit Zarley

Baker has a new book out by Dr. Brandon Crowe of Westminster Theological Seminary entitled Why Did Jesus Live a Perfect Life? The Necessity of Christ’s Obedience for Our Salvation. Westminster is an Orthodox Presbyterian seminary in Phily. That church denomination is Calvinist, thus Reformed in theology. That means they are deterministic, sometimes viewed as fatalism, but what Christians usually call unconditional predestination. I am opposed to that viewpoint and believe more like Arminian-Wesleyans do, in which humans have real... Read more

Will Donald Trump Plead Insanity?

Last updated on: March 4, 2022 at 7:23 pm By Kermit Zarley

I wonder if the only chance Donald Trump has of not going to prison is to plead insanity. As I have stated over and over again in my blog during his presidency, and now in my new book, Bible Predicts Trump Fall, Donald Trump is a mentally sick man, a classic narcissist who believes he cannot lose. After being the U.S. president for four years, he lost reelection in 2020. But keeps on saying he didn’t lose, that he won,... Read more

Why Does Donald Trump Speak of Himself in the Third Person?

Last updated on: March 3, 2022 at 11:41 pm By Kermit Zarley

Donald Trump sometimes talks publicly about himself in the third person. For example, while he was the U.S. president,Trump once said publicly. “There’s never been a president like President Trump.” Well, folks, I would NOT disagree with that! Of course, there likely was a context in which he said that, but I don’t know what it was. He probably was bragging about being a great president, which he often did and still does. Another such self talk by President Trump... Read more
