By Joshua Parrott, Sports Writer I recently made a huge mistake using my computer, one that blows any of my previous mistakes off The Hill. Finding too much boredom at my job and little enlightenment outside of class, I spent an hour or so in the wee-hours of the morning combining two of the most powerful elements of the past 30 years: The ...

‘Quark’ terminology in Chapel vague
"Do quarks speak of God's existence? Yes!" How Dr. Towell arrived at this conclusion was unclear in Monday chapel. He related an experiment in which a quark measurement that had been predicted to increase over time actually decreased, much to the dismay of a fellow scientist. Dr. Towell failed to ever explain the implications of this phenomena; ... [Read More…]
Democratic party protecting freedoms
Mr. Woolsey is right about a one thing; there is indeed a distinction between the two major political parties. I always love reading something that resembles a stump speech written for Tom Delay. You know what I'm talking about, right? Well, let's review what Mr. Woolsey actually claimed in the attempt to distinguish his party of moral ... [Read More…]
Clubs must remain focused on Christ
Normally well-meaning, Christian young men and women compromise Christ-likeness to fulfill social club pledging traditions. The above transformation works like this at ACU. During the rushing process, many club members act like Mother Teresa to prospective pledges, paying close attention to each who shows interest with the hopes that they will ... [Read More…]
Lori’s Story: Good burgers worth a sacrifice
By Lori Bredemeyer, Staff Writer Grille Works is the name, and burgers might bring it fame. Students were surprised to return from summer break and find they no longer could order cheese sticks, chicken fried steak or quesadillas from the Bean Sprout. Instead, Aramark has introduced a new concept called Grille Works, and the menu now offers ... [Read More…]
Letter from the Editor: Horrors and tortures of Texas redistricting
By Paul A. Anthony, Editor in Chief Dear Mom and Dad, I didn't spend this summer at camp, so I couldn't send any letters about wanting to come home. Instead, I spent the summer doing something much more harrowing than meeting lots of wannabe bullies going into the fifth grade. I covered Texas redistricting. You may laugh. You may think chasing ... [Read More…]
Reminder to always rely on God
"I can do all things through my own strength!" This is what I believed because I was a healthy, physically strong and educated young man. At the age of 30 I owned a successful computer business I had started as well as flying full time for the Air Force. During college I was a member of the University of G A Powerlifting Team bench pressing ... [Read More…]
Leaving early and cheating Chapel
Stop leaving Chapel early. No longer content to talk over or simply ignore the daily speaker, many of you have taken your disrespect for ACU's daily meeting and devotion to the next level: you walk out. The dishonesty you showcase puts you on the same level as a student who forges a paper or cheats on a test. In effect, all of you who try to ... [Read More…]
Republicans still vouching for conservative views
I'm responding to last week's letter from the editor about the blurred lines between liberal Democrats and conservative Republicans. After reading the letter over several times, I can't help but notice the inaccuracies and blatant inconsistencies. The distinction is clear between the two parties. Just the very idea that Republicans are more ... [Read More…]
Episcopal Church rejects biblical truths
As the secular world embraces homosexual culture to a greater degree, we support the viewpoint that love and tolerance must be shown by Christians toward the people of that world. However, love and tolerance of the sinner should not be construed as acceptance of the sin. The Rev. Gene Robinson has been confirmed as the bishop of New Hampshire by ... [Read More…]
