Why is America so Sad? And Where do We Find Joy?

The study found that we were in the midst of a growing “epidemic of loneliness” that, already bad, has been made much worse by the pandemic.

Written by David J. Ayers | Thursday, December 30, 2021

In measured loneliness and happiness, married adults fare much better than everyone else. Those who attend religious services regularly do better and changed less. In fact, 29% described themselves as “very happy” in 2021, compared to only 20% of those who go to church only one to three times per month, and 15% of folk... Continue Reading

Philadelphia Public Schools Will Allow Students to Change “Gender Identity” without Informing Parents

The district's superintendent said every student has the "right" to choose a preferred name and gender, "even when that is different from what is printed on their birth certificate."

Written by David McLoone | Wednesday, December 29, 2021

Although the new school policy does not require parental consent for any changes in gender recognition for their children while in school, John Fisher-Klein, executive director of the LGBT-advocating Attic Youth Center, made a “plea” to parents, imploring them to “create a space where your child can be authentically themselves.”   PHILADELPHIA (LifeSiteNews)—The Philadelphia School District bowed to Leftist gender...

LGBT Activists are Loudly and Proudly Trying to “Normalize Queerness” in Children’s Literature

They are no longer pretending that the education (or re-education) of children is not the goal of their movement.

Written by Jonathon Van Maren | Friday, December 17, 2021

If you have children and you want them to develop a healthy, biblical view of sexuality, you need to know that you are facing off against the forces of Big Tech, the government, the entertainment industry, and what passes for education these days. Parents have told me that it is pretty much impossible to let... Continue Reading

Alumni at Prestigious College Withhold Donations as Campus Restricts Free Speech

Major donors to Davidson College are dissatisfied with the growing ideological imbalance and intolerance of free speech the college has taken in the last decade.

Written by Tripp Grebe | Thursday, December 16, 2021

Donors showed low confidence in the college’s defense of free expression during Quillen’s tenure as president — only 20 percent of respondents said the administration protects free speech on campus. Furthermore, the survey found that 94 percent of all donors and 99 percent of dissatisfied donors agreed that Davidson’s next president should make free speech and...

Did Anything Good Come from Glasgow?

Glasgow was where the 26th Conference of Parties (COP-26) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (FCCC) took place.

Written by E. Calvin Beisner | Thursday, December 16, 2021

COP-26 didn’t even bring any new progress toward the world’s developing countries’ meeting their pledge at 2009’s COP-15 in Copenhagen to transfer $100 billion per year to developing countries for climate finance, which they’ve not done. It said it regretted the failure and urged repentance. That’s all. No enforcement mechanism—just like with everything else COP-26... Continue Reading

No Room at the Inn – Or at the Christmas Table

It breaks my heart – and must certainly break God’s heart – to see the division across our country.

Written by Leonie Robson | Sunday, December 12, 2021

If you are vaccinated and refuse to host loved ones who are not, what is your reasoning for this lack of hospitality? Surely it is not “the science”? Your vaccine should protect you. According to multiple studies, your loved one’s lack of vaccine doesn’t make them much more likely to contract or spread the virus.  ... Continue Reading

Sixteen-Year-Old High School Football Star Dies Trying to Save Classmates from Shooter

Out of this senseless tragedy, however, a story has emerged of the heroism of one of the victims.

Written by Bruce Hausknecht | Saturday, December 11, 2021

Myre, a six-foot, 195-pound linebacker and co-captain of his school’s football team and a member of the wrestling team, was also a star student, carrying a 3.9 grade point average. He was even being recruited by the University of Toledo and had visited the campus only a few days before his death.   Last Tuesday... Continue Reading

Must You Remain Silent on Abortion Unless You Adopt a Baby?

There is no logical connection between a person’s unwillingness to adopt a child and their moral claim that abortion is wrong.

Written by Alan Shlemon | Friday, December 10, 2021

What makes this challenge odd is that it presumes the pro-life community is doing nothing to meet the needs of women (pregnant or not) and their children. The reality is that there are more pregnancy resource centers in the United States than there are abortion clinics. These centers and their staff provide counseling, pregnancy testing,...

The Consequences of Plagues and Pandemics (Part 2)

How the COVID pandemic is contributing to the loss of economic and political freedom.

Written by Gene Veith | Thursday, December 9, 2021

Contributing to the rise of unlimited government as a result of the pandemic were the above bailouts.  For the first time, the government gave vast amounts of money directly to its citizens,  extending the social safety net not just to the disadvantaged but to everyone.  Again, maybe this was necessary and a good policy, a...

A Shocking Reversal: The US Officially Turns a Blind Eye to Nigeria’s Endangered Christians

Nigeria has long been one of the most dangerous countries on earth for Christians.

Written by Lela Gilbert | Sunday, December 5, 2021

Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, who also serves on the US Commission on International Religious Freedom, estimates that as many as 8,000 Christians have been murdered in cold blood between January and September this year. Meanwhile, the Nigerian government does almost nothing—and the Biden administration has decided to do even less.   After decades of disturbing... Continue Reading
