I am always on the lookout for advice on dealing with my final years. I found an article that has helped me in that regard so I thought I would give you a few snippets from it. Continue reading Staying Emotionally Strong In Your Later Years
Many are panicked about what the future holds for them. They see robots taking over the world and humans relegated to the trash heap of time. This post is to try to do a little bit to assure you that is not the case. My new blog over at RJsDigitalDoodles.net is all about creativity. I truly believe that we are on the crux of a … Continue reading The 2nd Enlightenment
There are those around today who disapprove of using the tools of the 21st century to create what their mind’s eye sees. They think everything was better in the “good old days”. Continue reading We Should Shun Cameras
The marketing folks have once again to convinced many of us that our carpet contains germs, dirt and other such unhealthy things. So, we must all immediately strip out all our carpet and replace it with fake wood floors. Continue reading Strip Out The Carpet …
I am taking the coming week off from RJsCorner to prepare for some changes in my blogging going forward. Those changes will be announced on the 1st day of my 80th year on this earth. I never dreamed I would live this long. But, according to my doctor I could see several more years to come. I am not going to spoil the announcement, so … Continue reading The Times, They Are A Changing…
I read a very interesting article the other day that caused me to have a different perception of boredom. Continue reading We Are Killing Our Creativity With Constant Stimulation
I have been thinking lately about the words of Jesus and how he interacted with those he came across. Except for some of those in the religious establishment I couldn’t find any instance where he chose to automatically exclude anyone from his saving grace or the wisdom of his teachings. He treated men and women pretty much the same; he welcomed all to his ministry. The … Continue reading The Practice of Exclusion…
And mine is especially so. I realized from a very young age that I was different from most around me. As a young boy I was supposed to be entranced by sports, but the opposite was the case for me. All the movies and TV of my youth were about being macho; I had massive levels of empathy instead. I tried my best to fit … Continue reading A Mind Is A Strange Thing
A theology based on this fear seldom inspires great acts of compassion and service. When we live in constant fear of divine rejection, we focus all our attention on securing our survival. Sadly, this self-absorption only leads us further from love. Fear and love are incompatible. Fear indicates our distrust of the one who claims to love us. A child trembles when a parent threatens, … Continue reading Fear vs. Love….
My in-depth study of Christianity 18 years ago showed me just how far religion has veered from its original founder. I am now discovering a similar thing happening in the psychiatric community surrounding neurodiversity. That is what this post is all about. Continue reading Diversity – Convoluted Paths & A Way Forward…
For this Sunday I have again decided to pull a post from my legacy blog at RedLetterLiving.net (Click on the logo above to see RLL). It was originally posted 13 years ago, but it seems to be more relevant to today’s version of Christianity We forget to distinguish between history as a record of the elites and history as a record of the people. While … Continue reading Just Ordinary People….

RJsCorner has been about several different things throughout its 17-year history. I truly believe that it has finally evolved into its true purpose, and that is:
Having My Say — Life on the Margins — My Artsy Side
Let’s look at these three topics Continue reading RJsCorner – The Final Frontier
Robin Myers –The Underground Church – Reclaiming the Subversive Way of Jesus. Given for the past 1500 years or so, or at least since the age of Constantine, Christianity has been pretty much defined by what we are supposed to believe about Jesus. It is hard to remember that was not the case for the first four hundred years or so. When we look back at history … Continue reading Early Christian Practices….
The topic of this post has been on my mind lately especially since Christianity has become VERY political now. The image above is from one of my first blogs I started in 2008 entitled RedLetterLiving. This particular post was written a little over 4 years ago. The blog was put in hiatus in 2014 but resurrected in 2019 for a couple more years. Click HERE … Continue reading Worshipping vs Following
