 It’s official. The Boy Scouts of America are dead. The Boy Scouts Of America released a statement in support of Black Lives Matter and now say they’ll require Eagle Scouts to earn a diversity and inclusion badge. According to the rest of their statement, they “haven’t been as brave as they should have been” following […]

Convergence here, convergence there

 Convergence pretty much everywhere. A pair of readers email about their recent run-ins with organizational convergence: I ran a fan channel on YouTube, Owen Benjamin Digest, that reposted clips from you, Owen and more recently Stefan.

Scrabble converges

There is literally no activity or organization that will not be converged, unless it actively and aggressively resists convergence: Expert Scrabble players have blasted the game’s owner as ‘virtue signalling’ and ‘woke’ after it banned 400 derogatory terms as playable moves.  Racial slurs including the ‘n-word’, insults against the elderly and homophobic terms were removed […]

How the SBC was converged

 As usual, listening to the self-appointed experts who inevitably recommend that more resources and influence be directed their way has led to convergence, declining members, declining revenues, and organizational failure for the Southern Baptist Convention: Most of my writing on Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) issues has focused on our diminished effectiveness in advancing the Great […]
