2. Why shop online for clerical shirts? October 12, 2009 The clerical shirts may be bought from shops made of bricks and mortar. They can even be bought online. Which option is better? Which one is more convenient and profitable? Let’s us discuss. Clerical shirts are specialist apparel for the clergy. Their consumers are limited in number, as these strictly represent the clergy community such as Anglican and catholic priests. As a result, the demand for the shirts is consistent but it never goes higher than a certain point. Obviously, business is not brisk if you would ever go to an offline store selling clerical shirts.

3. Whatever you do, don't leave the church September 17, 2009 No, I have not suddenly been converted and become a church goer. I don’t know if you have noticed how organised religion keeps compromising in an effort to keep people in the church. I am not referring to one specific religion either. If you are part of the religion, these compromises are probably the most logical thing to do. However, looking in from the outside, sometimes I can only shake my head. I remember many years ago, in the 70’s, the furore that women caused in my congregation by actually going to church with a bare head. The rule was that a woman had to cover her ...

9. How does Faith in God give us Freedom from our Problems? January 03, 2009 Christian literature usually emphasize on the phrase that “God’s love and grace are enough.” Christian personals though believing on the sayings are not much affected by the truth. While fighting the negativities in our life, people often neglect the crucial truth that the love and grace of God is unlimited and it does not end. Most of the Christian personals do not acknowledge the love and grace of God which result into the increase in unhealthy behavior. They always expect for something more from what God is offering to them. If we do not firmly believe that the love and grace of God are not... (read more) Author: Andy Ross

14. Growing Up on Robben Island, by Michael Klerck January 03, 2008 People often ask me why I keep my Robben Island site going after so many years.

Robben Island was first an army base, then a naval base, and eventually the marines took over before handing over to the prisons department. I have fond memories of walking the island with my nanny every day; she was a Xhosa wo... (read more) Author: Michael Klerck

16. Anglican leader soft on Islam, hard on US November 27, 2007 Anglican scam artist Rowan Williams continues to deceive and mislead the masses, pretending to be Christian while preaching his self-righteous and idolatrous ideas.

Those who humbly submit to the Word of God, rather than insist on their own ways (proud and stubborn), who acknowledge Father knows best, learn to adjust their attitudes, actions and beliefs to get in sync with the Scriptures. It's called convers... (read more) Author: David Ben-Ariel
