Marriage in Rapid Decline, Even Among Evangelicals
It is not an overstatement to say that if this trajectory holds, our society will collapse.
What does it mean for America that in half a generation, the total percentage of men in their prime participating in marriage went from half — already an alarmingly low rate — to close to only a third? From 1 in 2 to 1 in 3 married? If we were a nation that was genuinely... Continue Reading
How to Avoid Falling for Fake News
The primary objective of journalism has subtly shifted from informing to entertaining.
news reports may be skewed—deliberately or not—to satisfy their advertisers, their audience, or their shareholders. Reporters may put opinions before facts. They may play up only one aspect of the story while downplaying the rest. And news that might offend audiences may be ignored altogether. It used to be a lot easier to tell... Continue Reading
Riches and Poverty
Sin is the grand cause of the enormous luxury of the rich–and the painful degradation of the poor.
So long as some are wise, and some are foolish; some are strong, and some are weak; some are healthy, and some are diseased; so long as children reap the fruit of their parent’s misconduct; so long as sun, and rain, and heat, and cold, and wind, and waves, and drought, and blight, and storm, and...

Where Did ‘Cancel Culture’ Begin?
Liars cannot tolerate those who speak the truth.
While it may not seem to Bari Weiss that this has anything to do with what happened to her at the New York Times, in fact Roe v. Wade was arguably the tipping point — a fulcrum of history — that has led to a world in which our basic First Amendment liberties are imperiled. Once our political... Continue Reading
Progressive or Conservative?
If you are heading in the wrong direction you are not making progress.
The labels “progressive” and “conservative” are used quite frequently in my particular political and cultural context in the United States, and a lot of individuals take pride in calling themselves one or the other. To those on the left wing of the political spectrum in the United States, “progressive” is almost synonymous with good while... Continue Reading
Is it Heresy for a Christian to Question Black Lives Matter?
I accepted the poisoned chalice and wrote "10 Christian Responses to Racism".
I shouldn’t have agreed. Why? Because I knew what the responses would be…indeed I could have written them myself. To be honest I could have done without the grieve – the shrill cries of ‘racist’ , ‘alt-right’– the self-righteous ‘don’t you care as much as I do’ posts. It felt as though I had committed...

Evangelical Pastors Pander To Radical Black Lives Matter
Christian leaders were once defined by piety not politics, revivals not riots.
Here’s what Black Lives Matter explicitly says about itself on its own website: “We … do the work required to dismantle cisgender privilege. We build a space that … is free from sexism, misogyny, and environments in which men are centered. We dismantle patriarchal practices … We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure … We... Continue Reading
Why College Is Never Coming Back
Mark my words: coronavirus will be remembered for transforming college forever.
Right now, millions of kids are questioning what they’re paying tens of thousands of dollars for. NOBODY is willing to pay $30,000/year to watch lecturers on Zoom calls. In fact, tuitions are already falling. New data shows colleges reopening “online only” this Fall have slashed costs by $9,000, on average. How many kids will jump... Continue Reading
Finally! The Little Sisters of the Poor Score a Win
The Little Sisters of the Poor finally got a victory defending itself against government regulations that insisted the sisters must provide contraceptives in the health plans to their employees.
The sisters’ refusal comes from a deeply held religious conviction which requires them to protect innocent human life. If they furnish medical insurance under ACA requirements, they will be providing drugs which extinguish or prevent the formation of life in the womb. By doing so they would be forced to violate their religious beliefs. ... Continue Reading
Double Mastectomy at 15, Detrans 16-Year-Old Now Seeks Reversal
Gender ideology — a fairly new and contradictory belief system — is seeping into the school curriculum, pulling kids down the internet rabbit hole, and encouraging young people to question and analyze their “gender identity.”
As an alarming number of desisted and detrans young people come forward, more and more as time passes, they bring visibility and awareness to the medical malpractice that’s been going on for years. The major surge, in the number of kids who identify as “trans” in recent years, has done nothing to slow the medical... Continue Reading
