LRPSP
LRPSP. com has been up for over a week now and I thought I’d step back and provide some foundation for the categories, my biases, and the general discussions. The About page provides an overview of the Blog, however I thought that over time a little more detail might be provided. This is a short […]

Stacking The Data
When you analyze things in life you have to be very careful not to allow your world view to stack the data in your favor. This is extremely difficult to do. People (humans) have a natural tendency to want things to go their way. I know I struggle with this constantly. People just want to […]

WINNERS AND LOSERS
Even as the Seattle Seahawks celebrated their big win the Stock Market took a dive. There are winners and there are losers in life, but it is not always a zero sum game. In Matthew 5:3 Jesus Christ said that the poor in spirit have the Kingdom of Heaven. The word poor used here means destitute, totally […]

The Big Game
Here we are and it is Super Bowl Sunday and most of America is excited about the big game. Most people that are excited about the game are cheering for their favorite team to win. I am cheering for the Seattle Seahawks to take home the trophy. Not that I have any particular ties to Seattle, […]

When is a Day not a Day?

Who Is Your Imaginary Friend?
I’d like to stay with the comment of the individual who posted on Ken Ham’s FaceBook page (See yesterdays blog: MURDERER OR NOT?). Specifically the end of his comment: “It saddens me that an adult could believe such things as fact. You are robbing your children of their lives and wonder by filling every unknown […]

Murderer Or Not?
Amanda Knox is once again in the news and once again has been convicted of murder in Italy. Some have suggested that this is double jeopardy (tried for the same crime twice) and that if Italy were to request extradition of Ms. Knox that the request might be denied based upon those grounds. However, I’ll […]

Interpreting Data
I have the opportunity to work with medium to large data sets on the job. And the data sets are very significant to the customer. So we need to be careful with the data. However I am a pretty impatient person and sometimes I want to skip ahead in processing based upon assumptions about the […]

Life Isn’t Fair
There is a philosophy of fairness gripping our world today. Governments speak of inequities that exist between rich and poor, healthy and sick, happy and sad. The have’s and the have not’s. It is unnerving to some that so few could have so much and so many could have so little. They want to right […]

Is There A God?
One of the harder hitting and more intriguing questions asked in Life, Religion, Science, and Philosophy is: “Is there truly a God?” I might suggest here that the question ought to be asked within Politics as well, but alas, it would seem that most of our Governments today have either convinced themselves that it makes no […]
