“One Year Closer to Eternity” part 5 – Those Lying Eyes

Our final new show of our final new episode of 2023 is here, concluding the first full calendar year of broadcasts for Something’s Happening Here.

“One Year Closer to Eternity” part 4 – Why is ‘Something Happening’?

Why in the world have my producer and I been laboring at this podcast game for over a year now? The show costs more than it earns and is a real burden on the schedules of those of us involved in its production. So whatever could be our motivation? In a bit of self-awareness and …

“One Year Closer to Eternity” part 3 – Sweet Land of Bribery

Like it or not, the United States of America is at the center of everything that happens on planet earth, and has been since at least World War II. While I believe the postwar era of American hegemony ended at the disastrous pullout from Afghanistan in 2021, this nation nonetheless continues to enjoy global dominance. …

“One Year Closer to Eternity” part 2 – Rise of the Matriarch

Though I am not a practicing Catholic, I strongly believe that the Roman Catholic Church enjoys strong prophetic attention in the Bible, and therefore I like to stay aware of the goings-on in and around it.

“A War of Ideas” part 4 – A Cornered Animal

Colloquial wisdom says that when an animal such as a dog or snake becomes cornered, it will attack, the idea being that when you remove options for it to escape, the only remaining action is aggression. While this may be more of an idiom than a fact, it does have at least one Biblical example: …

“A War of Ideas” part 3 – All Bad Ideas Share This in Common

In the book of Daniel chapter 10, we are given the idea that there are spirits that are influencing and governing macro-political events on planet earth, and Ephesians expands that idea to spiritual influence over every area of life. Though that may sound strange to a person who holds to naturalist thinking, believers everywhere (including …

“A War of Ideas” part 2 – The Greatest Trick the Devil Ever Pulled

It was said, in a career-making movie for several involved, and said again several times on this show in obvious reference to that film, that “the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he doesn’t exist.” And you may know that I believe pretty strongly that life imitates art, or more …

In the real world in the year of our Lord 2023, we’re really asking, for real: “Is Satanism Healthcare?” Now, we’re not the first ones to discuss the Satanic Temple operating “reproductive healthcare” clinics, but I hope we’ll be the most thorough: because …
