1. Regular posts - Blogging is a lot harder than it looks especially when dealing with such important subjects. My initial goals for posting were way too idealistic leading me to not post anything at all sometimes. Turns out this is common for blogging novices. In 2010, I resolve to post something substantive at least once a week.

2. More links – I also hope to include at least one post per week of links to articles that interest Christians. There is a lot of good information out there that Christians of any persuasion should be reading if they want to keep up with the political discourse. Part of the goal here is to serve as a place to find that information.

3. Different perspectives – I’ve enlisted the help of several of my friends who I believe have insightful things to say about the political universe from a Christian perspective. While they all agree on the fundamentals of the faith they do not agree on everything. In fact, if they ever met in real life I could not guarantee a happy result. But that’s what I like about it.

4. More discussion – Hopefully as we progress we will generate a larger audience from both sides of the aisle. I hope to provide interesting content relevant to Evangelicals interested in politics. The last election showed they are looking for a different kind of engagement in politics, no longer willing to support rather blindly one party. While I’m a conservative politically and religiously and will advocate conservative policies and values, I recognize the two are not always compatible. That should give us plenty to talk about.

5. Better discussion – Politics and religion are taboo subjects for a reason. They generate a lot of heat. Discussion on this site should be marked by a mutual respect for others while remaining open enough to allow for vigorous debate. Some of the recent discussions have been less than edifying on both ends. Let’s agree to offer mutual respect going forward.

6. Book reviews – As a way of offering resources to Christians I am hoping to start reviewing books germane to our subject matter. Look for that coming in the first quarter.

7. Humor – Be funny. I’m too serious about this stuff. One of the charming things about me is my sense of humor. It never seems to come out in political and religious conversations, for some reason. That’s got to change.

Well, there it is. That’s what’s on my mind for RevNev.com. I’d love to hear what you think. What suggestions do you have for the site? What would make it easier to navigate? What kinds of issues are you interested in seeing discussed? Leave a comment below.

While there is much he says – yells, actually – there is only one thing on which I want to comment. And it shows the stupidity of the liberal mind. Really, let me be clear: liberals are stupid. They could be pitied if it weren’t that they are simultaneously evil and dangerous.

Anyway, Ratigan goes on this tirade about the profits being made by the insurance companies and that these companies have a monopoly on the health insurance business. Ok. Get that? You can go check it out, but there is a list about as long as my arm of companies that sell health insurance in this country. Ratigan isn’t berating a member of Congress with the assertion that any particular company has a monopoly, but that the health insurance companies AS AN INDUSTRY have a monopoly on offering health insurance to the American populace! That kind of thinking is dumb, dumb, DUMB! That is like saying, “Automakers have a monopoly on the production of automobiles!” “Gas stations have a monopoly on the sale of gasoline!” “Dairy farms have a monoploy on the production of milk!”  I could go on and on and on. The point is this: Liberals are seemingly incapable of rational thought.

In the spirit of Tuesday, the worst day of the week, we at RevNev.com like to offer a joke and because Tuesdays are bad, so are the jokes. In fact, I’m still trying to finish the Halloween candy and this one comes from the Laffy Taffy:

What did the window say to the other window?

I’m in “pane.”

Yes, even I’m ashamed of that one.

On a somewhat brighter note, Steven Crowder has a hilarious new video featuring Californians trying to figure out who the second and third most powerful people in the country are.

Lastly, America’s best humorist is James Lileks. Check out his post on how much soda is too much soda? If the first two didn’t do it for you, this one will.

That’s it for this week’s edition of Funny Tuesday. Post a joke or a snide remark below.

What do you call a pony with a cough?

A little hoarse.

Post your own joke or a comment about this one below.

Did you hear about the international dispute between the Chileans and the Brazilians over sea bass?

The Brazilians think something is fishy. The Chileans think they’re nuts.

Post your joke below! Have fun and happy Tuesday!
