Physical Interventions on the Bodies of Children to “Affirm” their “Gender Identity” Violate Sound Medical Ethics and Should be Prohibited
We want to offer readers our best take on what is at stake: the anthropology, ideology, and ethics at issue.
We argue that “gender affirmation” procedures violate sound medical ethics, that it is profoundly unethical to reinforce a male child in his belief that he is not a boy (or a female child in her belief that she is not a girl), and that it is particularly unethical to intervene in the normal physical development...

Hillsdale College Receives $4.6M After It Sues Mizzou For Ignoring Donor’s Wishes
Hibbs’ success in finance had introduced him to the Austrian economists — and as his legacy, he hoped to leave new generations with the knowledge that had influenced him.
Hibbs, realizing that the University of Missouri may not follow through with his wishes, had stipulated the university check in with Hillsdale every four years as to how the money was being spent. If Mizzou wasn’t honoring the terms, the funding would revert to Hillsdale … When it became obvious to Hillsdale that Mizzou was... Continue Reading
Algorithm Religion
Even now we are just beginning to wrestle with the implications of artificial intelligence (AI).
The self-driving car is coming. We anticipate it with a mixture of bemusement, disquiet, and excitement, all converging in disbelief: It’s not possible, not really. But it is not just possible but a virtual—so to speak—certainty, within perhaps a decade. It’s 2032 and you’re heading into town in your self-driving car. You are alone,... Continue Reading
New Archbishop of York: ‘Bible Has To Fit The Current Culture’
It would be wrong to ignore the “damage” that is done by rejecting Western society’s current view of human sexuality.
While Bishop Cottrell did acknowledge biblical passages spoke about the issue, he said they were merely “part of our story and our inheritance”. “But what we can do is recognise that what we know now about human development and human sexuality requires us to look again at those texts to see what they are actually...

Why Are Pro-Choicers Bothered by Images of Aborted Clumps of Cells?
The actions of the pro-choice movement literally shout out that even they don’t believe their own stated rhetoric.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC), revealed that GSU was “not excited about the upcoming appearance” of the pro-lifers, and explained why GSU “would allow speech that is hateful or mean-spirited” on GSU campus. Now why is a pro-life display “hurtful, sometimes deeply so,” if the unborn are not human persons? If the unborn are merely tissue mass, as... Continue Reading
New York public school rejects student Christian club, OKs LGBT Pride Club
Russell asserted in her letter that the school officials’ actions are in clear violation of federal law.
According to Russell’s letter, Barca contacted the school’s assistant principal on Sept. 5. She was told that the application submitted by her sponsoring teacher was lost. However, the teacher who agreed to sponsor the club told Barca on Sept. 10 that the form had been located. Barca had three different meetings with Principal David Seipp, the... Continue Reading
Fighting Addiction On Campus
Amid frightening student deaths, a program at Baylor University integrates faith and recovery.
Christian colleges and universities can speak to substance abuse and provide addiction recovery services in ways that secular schools can’t, said Lilly Ettinger, the assistant director of wellness and recovery at Baylor University. In 2017, she helped launch the Beauchamp Addiction Recovery Center (BARC) at Baylor, a Baptist school of about 17,000 students in Waco,... Continue Reading
What Is Sex?
Gender fluidity masks, ignores, or makes one indifferent to the essential properties of what makes a male, male and a female, female.
Do we want to play the game of ascribing certain characteristics (how someone speaks, or their mannerisms) as being masculine or feminine? In many parts of the Middle East and Africa, men hold hands or arms or embrace or kiss—yet this simply means friendship and respect. In North America, we do not. We need to... Continue Reading
Jesus Is Not Dead—But John Lennon Is
John Lennon had an elevated opinion of himself and unfortunately, an improper view of God, his Church, and the truth of the gospel.
He believed that God’s gospel would somehow fade off into the sunset just as multitudes of pagan myths and godless ideologies have throughout history. However, for Christianity to die, God would have to die. For Christianity to vanish, truth would have to vanish. That’s simply not going to happen. In 1966 John Lennon of... Continue Reading
An Honest Abortion Debate
A response to Caitlin Flanagan’s essay in The Atlantic.
The most powerful part of Flanagan’s essay comes in its latter half, a challenge to supporters of abortion rights, when she discusses the technology that enables 3D ultrasound imaging of the fetus in utero. “These sonograms are so richly detailed that many expectant mothers pay to have one made in a shopping-mall studio, much in...
