When I first started this website, my blog and my Newsletter were one and the same. I used this section of my website to write articles, and to share thoughts and content with my fans.
Now that GreenSlugg has grown, I still plan to write a few blog posts here and there as I go, but overall this blog page will be taking a backseat to my Email Newsletter, Medium Profile and other platforms.
This is a good thing! By using multiple platforms, I have a lot more tools to create more content, and a lot of potential to reach a a much wider audience.
For those of you who are interested, please subscribe to my Newsletter, feel free to connect with me on other platforms, and let me know what you think of my content!

76 views in the last 24 hours. Sir, I would ask that you retract the false information that your ministry has spread against innocent police officers.
Even Former President Obama acknowledged that "Hands Up! Don't Shoot" did not fit with the facts, and yet your speakers told thousands of people that Officer Darren Wilson shot an innocent young black man out of sheer racism. Your speakers then went on to turn a man who tried to murder a police officer in cold blood into a martyr.

Came across a meme today from some spineless snowflake.
Not everyone is the military is training for combat. Many are training to be medics, and there are also those who use their service in the military to go on to become Doctors.
The primary job of the military is to defend our people, our freedom, and our way of life, and the U.S. Military defends not only the United States, but the whole World. "Killing people" is sometimes necessary to defend innocent lives.

If you are interested in supporting GreenSlugg.com I have just set up a Patreon page, and am currently setting up more support options.
Patreon allows users to donate to artists, including donation on a month-by-month basis.
Patreon does charge a 5% fee from each donation. This is actually quite reasonable for smaller donations, however if you are interested in a donation of over $1000, then please contact me, and we can make alternative arrangements!
A human being cannot convince someone to be saved any more than you can convince a corpse to rise up, walk, and live! The corpse cares nothing for steak, and without the Holy Spirit giving grace, a human cares nothing for Truth or goodness.

What you can do is this. Pray for the person. You can also set a banquet table (offer the Gospel, and truth) and invite those corpses to come and eat. But God has to give th...

A friend of mine on Facebook makes a great point about the phrase "give back." This has become the millennial way of saying "charity." Charity, of course, is wonderful, and a necessary part of a functioning and humane society.

I am seeing people freaking out about the withdrawl from the Paris Agreement. Yet people are ignoring the facts on this issue.
They are ignoring the fact that this agreement would devastate world economies, and the people it would hurt most are the poor. (In fact, knee-jerk environmental regulations often hurt people in poor countries the most.)
It also ignores the fact that due to solar activity, NASA projects a period of temporary Global Cooling over the next 50 years.

Everyone in America is exhausted with politics. Personally, I don't think we are nearing the end of the time when we are going to be hotly debating these things. But I think, as tired as I am, America needed this. People needed to relearn the art of being able to debate and disagree with each other, rather than to walk on eggshells and be polite all the time. American's also need to learn how to have their ideas challenged, and not be coddled all the time.

Other dude: So... you don't think that Black Lives Matter
Me: That's not what I said, what I said was that we can't on one hand be say... Continue reading ...

I was online today, and I came across a video of plans to have a Hispanic actress play Mary Jane, a traditionally white, red head female character. The video said that there were a lot of "a-- holes" who were opposed to this, and that those opposed just didn't like diversity.
Original Video: https://www.facebook.com/NowThisEntertainment/videos/1148439578550936/
My response to the video was that a lot of what's going on with taking white male characters and making them female or an ethnic mi...

Alicia Garza, co-founder of Black Lives Matter excuses and condones the violence, and the looting of black communities.
I have a friend who told me that the riots and the looting is not being done by Black Lives Matter, it's being done by people who just use the same slogan.
I've also been told that Black Lives Matter doesn't condone the violence.
Here is a video where Alicia Garza, co-founder of Black Lives Matter condones the violence and the looting of black communities.

[Background: In response to Intervarsity Christian Fellowship's support of Black Lives Matter, I sent this Email to an official Black Lives Matter Email address as of a few minutes ago. I doubt they will contact me back, because who am I that they would contact me? But we will see what happens.]
I have a request for Alicia Garza. My name is Greg. I am the son of a retired military police officer. Alicia Garza has said several times that BLM does not condone violence against the police, but the... Continue reading ...

Just read an article by a guy who works for Intervarsity Christian Fellowship justifying the murder of police officers. (Yes I have direct quotes. Keep reading.)
This guy goes on and on about how black people are targeted by police, and says that every single person who ever says that "Blue Lives Matter" is a racist who doesn't care about black people.
"When you say Blue Lives Matter you’re saying that Black Lives don’t because no one says Blue Lives Matter unless you’re shouting down peo...

I am currently in the process of building a new website designed for high school students. What I have right now is a very rough draft, and as of today only includes a history section (which I will break up into two history sections).
Here is the link to the temporary domain: http://studyhighschool.yolasite.com/history.php

Hey Democrats, I am watching clips from the convention. Yes I have a registered disability. No, I don't care about your pandering.
If you want to personally help me to find a job where I can chase after my dreams, great!
If you want me to be a part of the next pet group that you feel sorry for, I'm not interested. Move out of my way, move on, and give the welfare money back to my potential employers.
I'm sure there's a cross eyed puppy that is interested in listening to what you've got to say.

I am watching a Moses movie at the moment. It occurs to me that in the Bible, Moses relayed to Pharaoh that God said to let His people go. Pharaoh then increased the labor on the Hebrew people.
Things got worse, before they got better. God allowed Pharaoh to seemingly have power over His people, before He came in and performed miracles to set His people free. Continue reading ...

This is from a pro-evolution video. God's design is so obvious from this that it almost makes it seem like the enemy is fighting on our side. It is like a bunch of enemy soldiers decided to open a mustard-gas grenade in their own barracks and laugh as it destroys them.

My Netflix review of the Movie "Lo" directed by Travis Betz
An excellent performance. A beautiful story of love, loss, and sacrifice. It was not a Christian movie, but the sacrifice made for love in this movie reminded me of the sacrifice that Christ made for His love for all of humanity - whether the connection was intentional or not. The wound in the hand of the man reminded me of the scars of Christ.
"Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." John 1...

"If one life is changed because you were willing to become vulnerable, this has all been worth it. I love you all so much." - Stephen Krist in a personal note at the end of the credits of the movie "Real"

If God can heal my friendship with my best friend, Aaron, then it will prove that YHWH is God. If God can heal the world back to Himself, and forgive, then surely He can heal me. I pray for God to do this for me.
There is no other explanation if this friendship can be healed.
Joyce Meyer pointed out in her book "Do Yourself a Favor, Forgive..." That Satan takes the diversity i our personalities, which is a gift that God has given us, and uses that against us.

This guy may be a Mormon, but sometimes there is a lot of wisdom that people get as they age. I do not advocate Mormonism, because it runs contrary to the Bible (it teaches that there are many gods, and that Satan is Jesus' brother, and the founder of the religion, Joseph Smith, used to threaten women that if they did not divorce their husbands and come marry him to be his sexual partners they would be damned).
This is a good video, even though it is put out by someone who is a Mormon right no... Continue reading ...

The review that I wrote on Netflix about the movie "Alien Visitor"
I really liked this movie. It was not a big budget sci-fi type movie, but I really liked this movie anyway. It seems a little preachy at first, but it had a lot of good things to say. It was not just environmentalist propaganda. It was about people and relationships and made me think of how I have treated my own brother, Aaron, whom I am not in speaking terms with right now, but whom I love very much. I am surprised that thi...

The Doctor and Donna:
This video can be interpreted in at least two ways; The Doctor can represent Christ, or this can be about a woman who is in hard situations one after another, but is calling out to her LORD (with the "Doctor" being just a friend of hers, and not representing God).

ChristianBook.com should test their products against Scripture. They sell books by men like Hugh Ross, who teach that God looked upon millions of years of death, disease, and suffering, including thorns, and cancer, and called it all "very good", all while denying that there ever was a global flood (denying 2 Peter 3:3-8, and Genesis 7:19-21). "Conservative" churches deny the fundamental doctrines calling them "nonessentials"; expecting students to trust in Jesus, while denying the fall, and ...

That is exactly the point that Creationists have been trying to make. God upholds the laws of physics, yes, but the fact that we...

Someone actually put this as an actual review on an actual web site. This person is probably not that bright. Thank you to my friend Josh for sharing this with me.
Focus on being in the presence of God, not on "not sinning". Focusing on not sinning and breeding anxiety about "not sinning" just creates the sin of worry, and will make you exhausted. Make provisions so that you can keep yourself pure, but focus mainly on Jesus Christ, and in walking in scripture, prayer, and fellowship with serious believers, and sin will have no room to creep in.

Please, everyone pray for this man, that he finds salvation.
Rob Bell is openly denying the Gospel, denying the need for Jesus, and denying the reality of an eternal burning Hell.
There is one thing that is really important to note here. Christians have denied sin, as taught in the Bible. We have far too long denied that it is sin that brought death into a perfect World, because we wanted to make ourselves look more intellectual by compromising with Evolutionary ideas, and with an Old Earth (fi...

What good games are available for Christians?
I think that this is a proper question to ask. I have recently played several video games, and found some to be quite positive and even fruitful. I have also played games in past years that I could not believe were even legal. On one hand, Sim City 3000 was quite interesting and gave me a lot of thinking to do about civil planning, and government. On the other hand I played a Grand Theft Auto game (I had no idea it would be that bad). In Grand Thef... Continue reading ...
