Hang in there Erick. You are our go-to guy since Rush passed. God has prepared you for such a time as this. Hey I believe you are the next Rush! I have felt this way for sometime now. Others probably agree. A suggestion- take a month off both jobs and go with your wife to the Carribbean. You need the rest!

Where would we be without you! Presenting you to the Patron Saint of writers and journalist. Francis de Sales.

Sending prayers your way, Erick. Keep the faith.

Whoa - nobody knows the Bible less than me: Wasn't St Thomas a "gnostic"? Was he in league with ol' you-know-who?

Aren’t we all glad that those who design cars, passenger jets, bridges, etc. don’t draw from their own ‘truth’ while designing?

Praying for you--and your family, who probably suffer in your funks, too.

Praying for you...

In the meantime, a bit of Swiftian satirical verse:

Truth today is up for grabs , sir,

Yes, The Word’s been redefined.

Secret knowledge?...Resurrected,

What we FEEL’s the bottom line.

We’ve been looking down our Gnosis

At that “good book” in your hand.

We’ve declared it, sir, “Oppressive!”

Soon enough, we’ll have it banned.

We're the inmates...We're in charge now.

We're The Change that's at your door.

Yes, at last, you'll see Real Progress...

We're the Ones we've waited for.

Thanks for what you’re doing, Erick. You’re in His hands. If God is for you, who can be against you (against you successfully, in the long term)?

+1000 for the gnosticism reference. I've thought that has been a major issue with the rise of Marxist analysis for a long time.

Praying for you, Erick. We are all in a funk thanks to St. Fauci and his disciples. God remains in charge here, and I trust in Him to lead us through this, although your remark, “We’ll know we are back to normal when people start getting the flu again.” does make one wonder. And, yes, as a Christian, I know that Critical Theory, as is anything else based on Marxist thought, is by nature both immoral and impossible.

Hang in there, brother.

As Jonah Goldberg might say, brown liquor is a multipurpose tonic for what ails us. Praying for you my brother.

Aw heck Erick, for a moment there I thought you had REAL problems...like a pricey bottle of bourbon that turned out to be undrinkable. ;) Hang in there, new waters are tough to navigate. But you'll survive, you'll learn, and eventually you'll thrive.

We all realize that you have a busy day. You would not have been happy if you had turned down the broadcasting opportunity. You don’t have to write a long article each day, a paragraph or two on a topic will do.

One thing I like about being a member is that I can read remarks from sane subscribers.

All I can offer is the prayer that His will be done in your life, and you follow where He leads you, because if so, He will give you the strength and courage to endure.
