In Case With Global Implications, Finland Puts Christians on Trial for Their Faith

Juhana Pohjola appears to be the first person in the post-Soviet Union West to be brought up on criminal charges for publishing long-held Christian beliefs.

Written by Joy Pullmann | Tuesday, November 30, 2021

Many dozens of top religious leaders across the world have formally raised their concerns with Rasanen and Pohjola’s prosecution to the Finnish government and the United Nations. Several U.S. members of Congress have also asked U.S. agencies to take action against Finland for these human rights abuses.   Juhana Pohjola wouldn’t be cast to play his own part...

Jordan Peterson: The Last Professor

Quite simply, Peterson refused to use these pronouns—“ze,” “zhe,” “zir,” and so forth.

Written by Michael Martin | Saturday, November 27, 2021

Jordan Peterson is a professor, a pretty decent professor. He may not be the greatest thinker currently alive in western civilization, but he doesn’t need to be. No professor does. He does what a professor should do: he interrogates assumptions, presents his ideas in a clear and cogent manner, and is a respectful and courteous... Continue Reading

Presidents and Thanksgiving

Responding to a request from Congress, President George Washington issued our nation’s first Thanksgiving proclamation in 1789.

Written by Gary Scott Smith | Thursday, November 25, 2021

Finally, presidents have exhorted Americans to individually and collectively give thanks to God. Wilson counseled citizens “to render thanks to God” in their homes and places of worship on Thanksgiving Day. George W. Bush encouraged “Americans to gather in their homes, places of worship, and community centers” to pray and “reinforce ties of family and... Continue Reading

Adult Child Estrangement From Parents

Adult estrangement from parents is a current phenomenon.

Written by Don McCulloch | Monday, November 22, 2021

A primary cause of estrangement is something called “anxious parenting.” There are so many things for good parents to legitimately be concerned about in the lives of their child – drugs, sex, gender identity, kidnappings, terrorism, school shootings, pandemics, bullying, school quality, socialization, moral and character development – as well as challenges to faith in...

Brothers, We Are Presbyterian

A very well-organized clandestine political wing of our denomination has been exposed for being exactly what it is, despite many of us having been assured time and time again that the National Partnership was merely an exclusive fellowship organization akin to a type of pastors’ support group.

Written by Sarah Morris | Friday, November 19, 2021

Members of the National Partnership: plainly speaking, you shot yourselves in the foot. Your secrecy aroused all kinds of paranoid speculation. You were authors of your own worst critiques. Going forward, open communication will serve you well in defending unfair characterizations of yourselves. I do not believe the National Partnership as an organization needs to... Continue Reading

Judge Makes Stunning Ruling for Businesses with Religious Beliefs

The report explained the judge’s decision starts the process of resolving multiple questions left unaddressed by the Supreme Court’s decision in its Bostock case, where the justices granted anti-bias protections for sexual orientations and gender identity.

Written by Bob Unruh | Friday, November 19, 2021

The Washington Examiner explained the judge ordered, “The court holds that the Religious Business-Type Employer Class, and All Opposing Employer Class, are permitted to create and maintain codes of conduct that regulate the sexual conduct of their employees, to the extent that those policies do not target solely homosexual or transgender activities.”   A federal judge has...

School Places Professor On Leave After Controversial Interview Defending ‘Minor-Attracted Persons’

The Old Dominion professor wrote a book titled, 'A Long Dark Shadow: Minor-Attracted People and Their Pursuit of Dignity'

Written by Emma Colton and Tyler O'Neil | Wednesday, November 17, 2021

“Reactions to Dr. Walker’s research and book have led to concerns for their safety and that of the campus,” Kennedy added. “Furthermore, the controversy over Dr. Walker’s research has disrupted the campus and community environment and is interfering with the institution’s mission of teaching and learning.”   Old Dominion University announced it had put a professor on...

“Intentional Childlessness” on the Rise

Many young adults who are choosing not to have children express a hostility toward the very idea of family.

Written by Patience Griswold | Wednesday, November 17, 2021

Anti-natalism is a philosophy of hopelessness and misanthropy. It is also increasingly revealing itself to be rooted in resentment, fear, and a belief that children are a burden. The way that our culture sees children specifically, and humans in general, is wildly out of step with how God sees them.    “I never expected to... Continue Reading

University Professor’s Book Aims To Destigmatize Pedophilia Because There’s No ‘Immorality’ In Being Attracted To Children

Here we go again: Pedophilia being redefined with a Side B definition: MAP (minor-attracted persons) refers to someone who has preferential attractions to minors.

Written by Kendall Tietz | Monday, November 15, 2021

“I want to be extremely clear that child sexual abuse is never ever okay,” Walker said. “But having an attraction to minors as long as it isn’t acted on, doesn’t mean that the person who has those attractions is doing something wrong.”   University professor Allyn Walker wrote a book about people who are attracted...

Covid, Coercion, and Children

This is a choice that parents should make for their children – not something to be forced upon kids by the State.

Written by Bill Muehlenberg | Saturday, November 13, 2021

The efficacy and safety of these vaccines can be debated, and time will tell as to how all this plays out. But the issue of health mandates, forced vaccinations, vax passports, and all the other coercive public health measures are a real worry, and something I have been arguing against for twenty months now.   Healthcare...
