On Seeing Apocalypto

December 19, 2006
I've written diaries about my impressions upon seeing Fahrenheit 911 and about (not) seeing The DaVinci Code. I recently saw Mel Gibson's controversial film Apocalypto, and I wanted to share my thoughts about that as well. I saw something so... continued

Meeting the Green Man

November 22, 2006

Seeing God Through the Visitors

August 28, 2006
One of my all-time heroes is Episcopalian bishop John Shelby Spong. I get his newsletter every Wednesday and was amazed to see that, in his recent one, the position he takes about the existence of God parallels the stance that... continued

The Grays A Love Story

August 17, 2006
Whitley has written about how he feels about his new novel The Grays. People Magazine calls it "a great read." It is based not only on Whitley?s own experiences, but also on the experiences of so many other witnesses whose... continued
