Why Doesn’t The World Seem To Care When Christians Die?
Why is it that when Christians are persecuted, no one seems to care — not even other Christians?
“It was only last week, when the torture and killing had reached such extreme levels that the world began to take notice, that President Barack Obama ordered United States humanitarian and military intervention to rescue some 40,000 members of the Yazidis, a non-Muslim minority cornered by radical Muslims on a mountain outside of Mosul.” ...

Muhammed Is Britain’s Most Popular Boys Name
Muhammad is so popular as a name because the three million Muslims in Britain tend to like to name at least one of their sons after the prophet
“At the time, Mohammed was already the most popular boys name in London by some considerable margin. The scale of the result is likely to leave the public shocked, although much of the mainstream media are expected to focus on the official ONS results. As a result, they will report that Mohammed only came in... Continue Reading
A Generation Of Pro-Choicers Wiped-Out By Abortion
The “Roe Effect” is the theory that Roe vs. Wade has resulted in fewer Democratic voters over the decades.
Over the last 30 years people who support abortion rights tend to have less children and more abortions. Those who are pro-life tend to have more children and less abortions. The result: A greater number of young adults are pro-life in spite of liberalizing trends on other social issues (e.g., gay marriage). The bottom line:... Continue Reading
Old-Fashioned Jew Hatred Is Back
As the violence between Israel and Hamas escalates, anti-Semitism fills Internet boards and in some cases, it spills out on the streets
It is one thing to support a State for the Palestinian people. It is another to use vitriolic hate speech to delegitimize Israel and the Jews who live there. This hatred is clearly not directed solely towards Israel, as the angry attacks are indiscriminately perpetrated against world Jewry. In the information age, anti-Semitism is able... Continue Reading
Social Security Crisis Closer Than You Think
The Social Security crisis that appears to be coming in 2033 is actually here now
“The 2014 report projects depletion of the combined Old Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance trust funds in 2033. Social Security has no borrowing authority, and after the trust funds are exhausted there is only enough payroll tax revenue to cover a projected 77 percent of benefits; meaning future benefit payments must be reduced by about...

Think Things Are Getting Better For Girls In China? Not So
A girl in China is twice as likely as a boy to die in the first year of life; if she makes it past her first birthday, her chance of dying triples
While “feminists” sites can blather on about deodorant and armpit hair, the rest of us might turn our eyes and hearts to the children of China, and find ways to pressure the government there to recognize the inherent value of all chidren: male, female, healthy, ill, or disabled. While Jezebel tells women to get fighting... Continue Reading
How To Make A Just War Unjust In One Simple Step: ISIS Edition
If ever there was cause that meets the criteria of classical "Just War" theory, I believe this is it
We seem to be voluntarily entering a war with no intention of success. This will have the effect of emboldening these barbarians and causing more, not less, misery and destruction in the long term. The irony is unbearable: We have here an opportunity to get involved in a truly just and moral cause, but because of... Continue Reading
Is Hindu Nationalism Behind Crackdown on India’s Christians?
Christian minorities in central India face a new threat as Hindu extremists in more than a dozen village councils have passed restrictions on religions other than Hinduism
While India’s constitution declares the nation secular in the sense that all religions are supposed to be treated equally, persecution still exists and stems primarily from Hindutva, the ideology that to be Indian is to be Hindu and that other faiths are foreign. According to International Christian Concern, Hindu extremists have attacked Christians, discriminated against them, and... Continue Reading

Taxpayer dollars could soon pay for sex reassignment surgeries for elderly or disabled Americans on Medicare

Is It Ok To Attend A “Gay Wedding”?
Paul’s counsel regarding whether it is permissible for Christians to visit pagan temples where idols are worshipped: No.
“Jesus reached out to sexual sinners” he did not at any time “attend a ritual that celebrated immorality.” He doesn’t believe Jesus would ever have attended such an event “unless the purpose in attending was to call people to repentance.”… “What good would I be at a ‘gay wedding’ anyway since I would be visibly...
