The Olympics as Utopian Theater

It’s all a show in the city of man.

Written by John Stonestreet and Timothy D Padgett | Tuesday, September 3, 2024

The Olympics are an example of what Augustine called the city of man. A city of man is self-serving and, ultimately, doomed to fall away. In our world, progressives claim to promote justice but make common cause with genocide in the name of intersectionality. Many conservatives are quick to take on a religious mantle when...

Pro-Natalism Is Not Enough

To rightly view and encourage childbearing, we must honor and receive children as gifts, regardless of their abilities or health.

Written by Emma Waters | Tuesday, September 3, 2024

Technocratic pro-natalists often desire to create a certain kind of a child: a healthy child, a smart child, or a “wanted” child. Indeed, with the expansion of embryonic genetic selection technology and the potential of artificial wombs or in vitro gametogenesis—an experimental procedure that genetically modifies anyone’s DNA into viable gametes—parents may use technology to...

Cultural Christianity Is Not Enough

Paying homage to Christianity will not save conservativism.

Written by Owen Anderson | Tuesday, September 3, 2024

The problem is paying homage to Christianity while denying the truth of its teaching.  That is what public intellectuals like Jordan Peterson or Douglas Murray do.  Even when you find Peterson speaking positively about the Bible, it is as a Jungian who reduces the Bible to a grouping of myths that represent archetypes found in...

We’re All Postmoderns Now

Our society may embrace a cavalier attitude toward truth, but Christians must refuse to play the game.

Written by Brad Littlejohn | Monday, September 2, 2024

Within such a post-truth society, the most countercultural thing that Christians can do is refuse to play the game. Whatever the world may pretend, we know that reality is a very stubborn thing, and it can only be evaded, not twisted into whatever shape we wish. Thus, even if others insist on casually lying to...

A Plea for the Pro-life Movement

Book: 'Evangelicals and Abortion' argues that society must affirm the dignity of human life before pro-life reform is possible.

Written by David Beard | Monday, September 2, 2024

Fraser and his wife have been involved with crisis pregnancy centers, and he cites Care Net (which operates pregnancy centers in the United States), Avail NYC in New York, and ProGrace in Wheaton, Ill. as models for approaching abortion at the level of the individual heart. “This is where lives are being saved and the...

No Country for Truth-Tellers

A father exposing gender ideology runs into state censorship.

Written by Kristen Waggoner | Thursday, August 29, 2024

After four years, Elston has become an internet sensation. This real-world hero now travels the globe to win hearts and minds, expose the lies of gender ideology, and galvanize others to protect children. And he’s had an effect—such an effect that Australian authorities decided to weaponize a government bureaucracy to censor him on the social... Continue Reading

Evangelicals for Harris, Evangelicals for Satan

The word “evangelic” means “good news.” But if Kamala Harris wins the election, it will be bad news for America.

Written by Samuel Sey | Tuesday, August 27, 2024

So we evangelicals cannot criticise the Evangelicals for Harris campaign while overlooking Trump’s evil. Voting for the lesser evil in Trump can be a righteous act, but it’s unrighteous to ignore the evil, even if it’s lesser than Kamala Harris’ greater evil. Donald Trump’s position on abortion is deplorable and Kamala Harris’ position is demonic. Despite... Continue Reading

Multiculturalism and Rootlessness

The recent civil unrest in the UK may have many branches but its roots lie in the societal rootlessness resulting from decades of enforced multiculturalism.

Written by Aaron Edwards | Monday, August 26, 2024

One day, Britain as we knew it will be gone. Some may so, “Well that’s always the case; nations always change.” Perhaps so; but how did it change? According to what principles? Along what lines? Who gets to decide how it changes? If the Nazis had won the Second World War, would it have been... Continue Reading

The Party of Infertility and Death

The Democratic National Convention begins in Chicago.

Written by R. Albert Mohler Jr. | Monday, August 26, 2024

It is increasingly clear that the Democrats really are the party of sterility and death. No less than The New York Times predicted that the DNC will be a display of “unbridled abortion politics.” Unbridled indeed. Harris and Walz represent the most ardently pro-abortion ticket in American history. The Democrats are gathering in Chicago this... Continue Reading

Christians Banned as Fathers to the Fatherless

Regulations refusing Christian care in the foster and adoption systems are a bad idea.

Written by John Stonestreet and Michaela Estruth | Monday, August 26, 2024

As of July 1, federal agencies, including the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Administration for Children and Families, implemented new policies for all state-run foster care programs. Advocates claim these changes provide “safe and proper care” for children by ensuring their safety “from harassment, mistreatment, and abuse.” Specifically, the new rules... Continue Reading
