About
I live in one of the most beautiful parts of the world: The Fraser Valley in British Columbia. I have a wife that is way better looking than I am. She is genuine, honest, trustworthy, and to top it all off understanding as well. Basically, she must have done something wrong in a former life to get stuck with me! We have two beautiful and healthy daughters.
I am ridiculously blessed.
I’ve had some pretty cool jobs in my time (one that has brought me a small amount of infamy), but as of right now most of my time is spent studying and reading books by dead people. My undergrad is in Religion and Theology with an Emphasis On Biblical Studies and a minor in Biblical Languages (Greek and Hebrew) from TUC. It may take two diplomas to make that fit.
Currently, I am doing graduate work for an MA in Biblical Studies at Trinity Western University. Because of my schooling every once in awhile I actually know what I am writing about, but usually I can just fake it pretty good!
My interests are obviously biblical studies and theology, but I also like hiking with my family, reading, video games, cooking, writing, golf, NFL, and music — except country music because clearly Nashville will be the locus of the Antichrist and his message is already going forth in the medium of country music.
In my spare time I like ranting or writing silly articles for you guys. However, the best part is getting to know some of you and reading your comments. There is nothing better than writing something funny or insightful (well, at least attempting to be insightful) and a reader makes a comment that is way funnier or much more insightful. It makes it all worthwhile.
Be good.
Oh, and for those wondering: Scotteriology is a play on the word soteriology.
Stumbled upon your site while researching the whole “healer” scam…
anyway…
I find your site to be entertaining and refreshing… way to be real. Freedom from religion is relatively new for me.
Oh, and I have a Hebrew tattoo (circa 2004) which I quite enjoy:). It’s supposed to say “living sacrifice” but a literal rendering of the words is more like alive/fresh raw meat. Yum. NT words in OT language forever etched on my ankle… why didn’t I think of something more clever (loins…?)??
Thanks for blogging. I have a new site to add to the favorites.

Megan,
You have a tattoo that reads “Fresh Meat”? So many places I could go with that!
Glad you like. Thanks.
I have to say, your banner image says more than some people’s entire blog.
what is the point of the banner image at the top of the page? What are you trying to get across with that?
They are many of the images that have appeared in different posts at Scotteriology
No no. What does it MEAN!!! And how does it apply to my life in 3 easy steps?
HA! I too was a Hockey Goaltender… Midget hockey, but still… I too attended theological school in Edmonton, the former Northwest Bible College. After 24 years of Evangelical whackery, I’m now an agnostic. I look forward to your attempt to connvert me… LOL
Love your blog. You take on many sacred cows with wit and insight. Good work. BTW, I can see Chilliwack from my house in Squamish…)
stumbled upon your site while looking for images of all things. While looking, I found your Hermeneutics video’s, I laughed so hard I sent an echo through the church. I love your blogs and find them quite enjoyable. I will bookmark this page and try to read more of them when I have time.
Scott, you’re at TWU???
Langley? Cloverdale? Fort Langley? Abbottsford?
My wife and I are at CANIL.
Yep. At TWU… though the faculty there may deny that after finding this blog.
CANIL: nice.
Blessings to you and your wife. Cheers.
Scott,
I have been following your blog for about a month now and I must say it is at least my second favorite (barely edged out by Nick Norelli)! Anyway, I have laughed out loud more than a few times reading some of your posts. Keep up the good work!
