Four painted faces. Towering platform boots. Fire, blood, explosions, and an army of fans who turned rock concerts into something resembling a comic book convention. KISS was outrageous, unapologetic, and often dismissed by the rock establishment. But beneath the makeup was a group of hardworking musicians who understood something extraordinary about entertainment, business, and the power of fandom. I never considered myself a member of the KISS Army. My journey with the band was something entirely different. And somewhere between a Queen concert, a trip to Tower Records, a rock ballad, and my annual Spotify Wrapped, I discovered why KISS deserves its place in the Rock ’n’ Roll Angel Chronicles.

Three starting points Almeder starts with empirical possibility. In "On Reincarnation: A Reply to Hales," he argues that reincarnation is a testable hypothesis and that the strongest cases would confirm a basic form of Cartesian dualism. Hales starts with underdetermination. As Almeder reports him, Hales holds that physicalism is the best theory of mind and that even granting the case data does not justify belief in reincarnation. He offers an extraterrestrial story to show that the same evidence could fit another explanation.

Scripture Is the Standard A Berean Test of Reincarnation and the Pre-Existence of the Soul By Charles Mason Survival bias is a historical fact. It does not establish doctrine. Every theological claim must be tested against Scripture.

Before purple became a revolution, Prince was a young musician whose records found their way into our homes, our bedrooms, and eventually our lives. For Generation X, he was more than a performer. He was a guitar god, a rule-breaker, a songwriter, and a beautiful rebel who dared to be different. From my sister's unforgettable purple night in a limousine to a school dance routine that required a few strategically placed beeps, Prince was part of the soundtrack of growing up. And when the world prepared for the year 2000, he had already given us the perfect anthem. This is my story of Prince, the music, the memories, and a generation that thought we'd have him forever.

There comes a time in every generation when men and women must decide what they believe. A time when the noise of the world becomes so loud that the voice of truth is nearly drowned out. A time when the foundations of society begin to shake. And a time when the question is no longer whether we will face adversity, but whether we will stand firm when adversity comes.

Some musicians belong to our childhood. Others ride along with us as we grow up, falling in love, finding ourselves, and making memories that last a lifetime. For me, Bryan Adams was one of those musicians. I first saw him as a young rocker opening a stadium show for Journey in 1983. Years later, I watched him command a stadium of his own. Somewhere between those two concerts, his music became part of my life. And the remarkable thing? He's still making music, still performing, and still reminding us why we fell in love with rock ’n’ roll in the first place.

What does a 1964 British Invasion song have to do with the MTV generation? Everything, as it turns out. From a little 45 discovered at Tower Records to my brother's hilariously questionable singing, two unforgettable concerts, and a music video that brought childhood memories rushing back, this is the story of how the Kinks and the Pretenders connected two generations through one remarkable song.

Examining Shawn T. Murphy's Reincarnation Defense By Charles D. Mason, Ph.D. The Mason Brief Shawn T. Murphy's October 2026 paper, Reconsidering the Evidential and Historical Boundaries of Reincarnation, responds to my audit, "From Case Reports to Metaphysical Conclusions." It deserves a careful answer, because it concedes a great deal.

Joe Rogan, you have every right to be angry, and so do the men who voted for Donald Trump and expected something different. On October 29, Rogan read Trump’s entire Truth Social post about Bill Maher aloud, about nine minutes of it. He called it a bad look and said Trump’s broken promise of no more war was the biggest letdown for his supporters. He has called the war a “giant quagmire” and compared the immigration crackdown to Gestapo tactics.

Joe, you’re right. Trump is not perfect. His supporters took no more war as a big promise, and he took the country into a war that has left 23 U.S. service members dead, including noncombat deaths, and 865 wounded, according to the Pentagon’s October 29 update. You read his Maher post for nine minutes, and it is the longest of his roughly 97,000 posts. You called the war a quagmire and criticized the Epstein files. Say it louder. I’ll say it with you.

Deep time is the immense span of geological and biological history, reconstructed from surviving material evidence and measured in millions and billions of years. No one alive has seen the events it describes. Nobody watched a seabed rise into a mountain range or a species first appear in the fossil record. What survives is material: layers of rock, fossilized bones and shells, and molecules in living and ancient organisms. Every claim about the distant past is reached through those materials.

MC Hammer was my gateway and initial exposure to the music of rap and Hip Hop and to him I say thank you and that is why Hammer will always be one of my favorite rap artists of all time and space. MC Hammer was the first and only rapper to my knowledge was dancing and rapping and basically giving the audience the show that they paid for

Kelis is cool! This article is about my favorite Kelis songs one is called “Bossy” and the one is “Caught out there”. Everyone knows the Milkshake song which is cool but there are other Kelis songs out there that are just as good.

What a law firm, a trial judge, and a visa lottery reveal about who runs America "We live in a judicial tyranny if there's no standing requirements or if there's only a hand-waving to issues of standing such that really anybody would qualify. That's really the core issue here." That is Andrew Branca, reacting to the Ninth Circuit's order of October 29, 2026. He is blunt, and he is right about the core issue.

Here is what I would say to Ozzy: Thank you Ozzy you have completed your earthly mission to rock the world and change it for the better. I love you Ozzy and we all do. We love you just as much as you love us.

To Ozzy Osbourne From Rikki La Rouge IT IS SHOCKING AND SADENING I HOPED THAT OZZY OSBOURNE WOULD LIVE FOREVER. HE WAS IMMORTAL, A GOD AMONGST MEN. OZZY WAS BORN IN BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND AND HE TOOK HIS FINAL BREATH IN THE TOWN OF HIS BIRTH. I

What the Gap Theory Gets From Genesis, and What It Adds A popular reading of Genesis says the Bible describes two creations. In the first, God made a perfect world. Satan rebelled, God judged the world, and the earth was left ruined. Genesis 1:2 describes the wreckage. Genesis 1:3 and the six days that follow describe the repair. The reading is called the gap theory, or the ruin-restoration reading, and it has one great attraction: it lets a reader keep a six-day week and still place millions of years, fossils, and animal death in a world before Adam. The question is not whether the reading can be built. It can. The question is how much of it Genesis states, how much Genesis merely permits, and how much Genesis requires. Those are three different things, and the gap theory depends on running them together.

You know I never understood why I found Spencer Gifts to be such a cool place to go when I went to the mall but I still think so and now upon doing a little bit more research for this article so I have a good base as to what I’m going to be talking about in this article

some time ago I had seen a brilliant series that I enjoyed immensely and had seen called “The Maravelous Mrs. Maisel" on Amazon premium. I love this series

A look at the earliest testimony, the empty tomb, and six questions for anyone who denies the resurrection. Here is the claim. Jesus of Nazareth was crucified under Pontius Pilate. He was buried. On the third day he rose from the dead. I believe that, and I think the evidence supports it. I also think the people who say no owe us something: evidence, not just the idea that another explanation is possible.
