Welcome polymaths !

Ever get the feeling that you seem to don't know what to do with your life because there are just so many things that you want to do ? I know, I've been there, so welcome to the club.

My name is Zigfred Diaz and I am a polymath. After more than 6 years of bloging about almost anything under the sun and having sort of a "blogging identity crisis." I've finally embraced who I am and decided to turn my main blog into some sort of guide for people with so much interest. Feel free to poke around.

Exposing doctrinal errors Part 1 – The “Jesus Christ is a Baptist” and the “Baptist brider” heresy

by 20 Comments

This article probably starts my series of pointing out several doctrinal errors that some Baptist churches and even my own church still lovingly cling to. When pastors from my church will read this, I will probably be ex-communicated or something. They will probably hate me for what I am about to say. Anyway before I start bashing some doctrinal errors that Baptist churches lovingly hold allow me to explain why I am doing, what will be doing. First of all, I am a Baptist. I still am, despite the fact that I have already been regularly attending a “non-denominational” church. I have not renounced my membership nor have I transferred membership. Not yet. Secondly, I believe that the Baptist church has been used by God mightily throughout the centuries in winning people to Christ, evangelizing the world and doing a lot of mighty and wonderful things in the name of God. Thirdly, although some may disagree with me, the Baptist has the most unique church history among all … [Read more...]

Let’s get ready to rumble once again as we await the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Juan Manuel Marquez youtube video and live streaming in the fight dubbed as "Number one, Numero ono" on September 19, 2009. Whether you watch it live or via delayed telecast it does not matter. It’s the fight of the year since the winner of this fight will be one who will ultimately fight the number one pound for pound boxer in the world, our very own Manny Pacquiao. On the right corner is Floyd Mayweather Jr. (39-0, 25 KOs), a six-time world champion from five different divisions who was once dubbed as the best pound for pound boxer in the world and was never technically knocked off from his throne until he resigned, paving the way for Manny Pacquiao to assume the title. Floyd Jr. has just been reunited with his father, Floyd Sr., the famous, trash talking trainer. On the left corner is Juan Manuel Marquez (50-4-1, 37 KO) who hails from Mexico. He is the current World Boxing Association and World … [Read more...]

FEARLESS by Max Lucado – A book review

by Leave a Comment

“There is nothing to fear but fear itself.” So said the great President Franklin D. Roosevelt, how true and how timely is what he said even if he said this several decades ago. Living in the verge of the 21st century, we can’t help it that people have a lot of fears. Fear about the status of the economy and how it is going to affect us personally, fear about war, terror, global warming and fear about everything else. With all that’s happening in the world today, it is no wonder a research reveals that ordinary children are more fearful than psychiatric patients in the 1950s. In the mix style of comfortable story telling-expository preaching complemented with modern day fictional and non-fictional illustrations and exmaples, Max Lucado one by one discusses the possible fears that each and every one us fast on a day to day basis in his new book, “FEARLESS.” From small personal fears like the fear of not mattering, to fearing the most dreaded things like the fear of global … [Read more...]

Noynoy Aquino for President in 2010 !

by 3 Comments

The 2010 presidential elections just got interesting. Several Presidential aspirants have stepped down or has acknowledged their willingness to step down in order to pave the way for the candidacy of Noynoy Aquino for President in 2010. Just recently Senator Mar Roxas has stepped down from the raise and has thrown his support for Noynoy Aquino for president. We have no other alternative. All other candidates are corrupt, or if they are not, their names are tainted with corruption or perceived to be corrupt. There are men like Senator Roxas, Governor Panlilio and Eddie Villanueva who are good leaders, honest and full of integrity, but no matter what they do it seems that they are lagging in the survey of the 2010 elections. Besides Senator Roxas and Governor Panlilio has already stepped down in favor of Senator Noynoy Aquino. We need to put an honest man in Malcanang. In order to do this we need a candidate that is sure to win. There is no other candidate that we can think … [Read more...]

Read and Share toddler Bible – A book review

by Leave a Comment

When I was accepted in the Thomas Nelson Book review bloggers program, I’ve decided to pick a children’s book because I enjoy reading a story to my son. So I choose the “Read and Share Todler Bible.” The book arrived and my son was doubly excited as I am. He flipped opened the book and was amused that the book contains a companion DVD which shows very well in our Samsung HDTV.  However he pointed one thing he didn’t like about the DVD, it didn’t contain the last 3 stories of the book which turns out to be his favorite stories, Jesus death and resurrection. The Read and Share Todler Bible is a great reading material for kids & parents. Each story is less than 7 pages making it short & simple for kids to understand. At the end of each story, an interactive learning suggestion like making a craft or acting out the story is suggested. Kids will love the pictures presented and parents will certainly enjoy reading out the simple exciting actions words used. My son and I … [Read more...]
