A Beta Parent Manifesto
Beta parents don't hide Vitamin A-rich pumpkin purée in the pancakes, nor do they make "cupcakes" out of cantaloupe with "frosting" made of beet-based food coloring and Greek yogurt
Contrary to what you might read, there are parents out there who don’t hire bilingual nannies or fall to pieces when their kids brush up against a non-organic toy. Let’s call them Beta Parents. I am one of them. I let things slide. My kid eats floor food. Sometimes we go an entire week without... Continue Reading
Christians Kicked Off HGTV For Their Faith
Twins Jason and David Benham found out recently their pro-life and pro-family values aren’t welcome at HGTV
The Benham’s experience is the latest attack on Christians living their faith in public. Why HGTV hired them from the start isn’t clear, since living the gospel is an explicit part of the Benhams’ business. Their company has an entire initiative geared to helping Christians find business opportunities to help fund their own mission work.... Continue Reading
Christian, Hindu Girls in Pakistan Kidnapped, Converted
Every year, hundreds of Christian and Hindu girls are kidnapped and forced to convert to Islam. Until a reformation in Islamic doctrine happens, Christians in Muslim lands will suffer.
The study gives details on 10 cases that show a pattern. The Christian females, including prepubescent girls, are kidnapped. They are then registered as part of a married Muslim couple. When the girl’s relatives file a complaint, the victim’s new “husband” says the conversion was voluntary and the family is harassing them. The girl remains... Continue Reading
Presbyterians Escalate War on Jews
So long as the Presbyterian Church USA is waging war on the Jews, they will treat it as a hate group masquerading as a community of faith
“A new study guide and companion CD about the Middle East published by an official Presbyterian group sought to delegitimize Israel and whitewash those who wage war and terrorism against it. Even worse, it compared Zionism to anti-Semitism and said that American Jews who supported Israel were not faithful to their religion.” In February... Continue Reading
Pro-Gay Groups Set Their Sights on the South
HRC’s goal is to expand social and legal protections in those states for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered (LGBT) residents
HRC is not alone in targeting southern conservative states. Tim Gill, a Colorado philanthropist and gay-rights activist who was instrumental in turning the tide of public opinion in Colorado, says his foundation is investing $25 million into other conservative-leaning states in the next five years, according to The New York Times “We can’t allow two...

Eliminating Poverty and Reducing Inequality: Is a Guaranteed Minimum Income the Answer?
A government guaranteed income is a bad idea, and its defenders rely on fallacious economic arguments to support it
The key to economic prosperity and full employment is to reduce government spending on entitlement programs, not to add a new one. The associated reduction in taxes or government borrowing would increase the money available for investment in capital and job training, enabling more people to work and earn high wages so they could escape...

The Edge Of Extinction
The numbers say Christians may soon be no more in the Middle East, but the beleaguered churches in Baghdad are fighting risk with resilience
“The front steps of St. George’s used to open onto a two-lane street with steady but subdued traffic in an area of government buildings. Anyone was welcome to enjoy the garden. That all changed when suicide bombers and insurgent fighters began targeting St. George’s and other churches in Baghdad shortly after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion.”... Continue Reading
Google Goaded Into Purging Pro-Life Ads
Popular search engine allegedly removes ‘deceptive’ pregnancy center ads at pro-abortion group’s prompting
NARAL’s main beef is the very existence of crisis pregnancy centers—a fact the group doesn’t attempt to hide. NARAL resorts to vicious name-calling when referring to CPCs, using labels like “fake clinics” and “predators.” Brian Fisher, co-founder and president of Online for Life (whose website was not affected), said technology plays an “extremely important” role...
