Riches and Poverty

Sin is the grand cause of the enormous luxury of the rich–and the painful degradation of the poor.

Written by J. C. Ryle | Tuesday, July 28, 2020

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.

Written by Robert Stacy McCain | Tuesday, July 28, 2020

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.

Written by Keith Mathison | Monday, July 27, 2020

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".

Written by David Robertson | Monday, July 27, 2020

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.

Written by Everett Piper | Friday, July 24, 2020

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.

Written by Stephen McBride | Friday, July 24, 2020

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.

Written by John A. Sparks | Thursday, July 23, 2020

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.”

Written by Julia Diana Robertson | Monday, July 20, 2020

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

John Calvin and Rebellion Against the Government

A case can be made for Calvin leaving open, in fact if not in intention, the legitimacy of rebellion as a last resort against civil injustice.

Written by Paul Helm | Monday, July 20, 2020

It is worth remembering that Calvin’s view of government was aristocratic.  The king’s power was not to be absolute, but he is to govern together with his nobles. Calvin’s treatment of civil government is in Book IV of the Institutes, the last chapter (20). At the beginning of Book IV Calvin explicitly links to his earlier... Continue Reading

NYT Blames Churches For Spreading Coronavirus, Ignores Protests And Riots

“Weeks after President Trump demanded that America’s shuttered houses of worship be allowed to reopen, new outbreaks of the coronavirus are surging through churches across the country where services have resumed.”

Written by R. Scott Clark | Monday, July 20, 2020

The gathering of Christians for public worship is declared to be an imminent threat to the health of the nation. They continue: “The virus has infiltrated Sunday sermons, meetings of ministers and Christian youth camps in Colorado and Missouri. It has struck churches that reopened cautiously with face masks and social distancing in the pews,... Continue Reading
