Stumbling Over Stardust

Set in the context of some turbulent times when Donald Trump was POTUS and Covid19 was the pandemic undermining our physical and mental health, these blogs helped the writer and readers get a grip on their lives beyond what was happening on the news media. Religion and church life were changing as a part of the unravelling of our national life which was becoming more fractured. The resurgence of racism and the rise of Christian nationalism was undermining so many of the moral and social gains that had been made for the past 50 years. All of these underlying issues created a space for a writer with a background in science and religion and the wit and wisdom of age to have his say in hopes of putting out the fires and reestablishing some framework for faith to guide us through such a time.
