Our least Christian president

Thomas Jefferson was no atheist; but he was not an 'orthodox' Christian

Written by Stephen Prothero | Wednesday, July 4, 2012

"Let us then, fellow citizens, unite with one heart and one mind. Let us restore to social intercourse that harmony and affection without which liberty, and even life itself, are but dreary things. … Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. We have called by different names brethren of the same principle. We are all Republicans; we are all federalists."Americans." --T. Jefferson

A Moment to Be Clear

In the battle over marriage it's time to make a choice: Speak out, or acquiesce.

Written by Eric Metaxas, Christian Post | Wednesday, July 4, 2012

Unbelievably, a couple of evangelical stalwarts are electing to sit this fight out-choosing not to endorse the amendment. Leith Anderson, a former pastor and President of the National Association of Evangelicals is one. John Piper, of Bethlehem Baptist Church, is another

What’s the Big Surprise About The Obamacare Ruling?

The American worker has been living with a tax for mandatory health care insurance for decades

Written by Larry E. Ball | Monday, July 2, 2012

The sermons that most preachers preach are what I call 'safe'. They deal with the legitimate and orthodox issues of the heart, but they never cross the boundaries into the realm of the duties and limitations of the civil magistrate.

The Obamacare Decision

High court upholds most of healthcare law, ruling the individual mandate penalty a tax

Written by Emily Belz, WNS | Saturday, June 30, 2012

Lawyers who filed lawsuits against the contraceptive mandate…perked up at the court’s comments about the Commerce Clause. Roberts said the individual mandate amount to a “substantial expansion of the government’s power.” At another point he said the federal government could not compel people “to enter commerce precisely when they have chosen not to.”  For opponents...

A Justice Paradox

Our justice system cannot bring complete recompense to the victims

Written by Barnabas Piper, WNS | Saturday, June 30, 2012

But there was justice done once that did more than hold a criminal accountable, which is ironic since it didn’t hold a criminal accountable at all. Instead, justice was done on an innocent man—a sentence of death and an execution for crimes He never committed.   Last Friday night was a victorious night for the... Continue Reading

We’re, Like, Damaging the English Language

Our best defense against tyranny and the loss of cultural memory is a language that maintains honesty, simplicity, and clarity

Written by John Erickson, WNS | Friday, June 29, 2012

English is our conduit to the founding documents of English-speaking civilization, the body of law, literature, and Scripture that shapes our understanding of what it means to be a God-made, civilized human being

Supreme Court ban on school prayer ban turns 50

“They took prayer out of schools-uh, and they put evolution in-uh.”

Written by Peter Smith, Courier-Journal | Friday, June 29, 2012

“With all respect, I think the Court has misapplied a great constitutional principle. I cannot see how an ‘official religion’ is established by letting those who want to say a prayer say it. On the contrary, I think that to deny the wish of these school children to join in reciting this prayer is to deny them the opportunity of sharing in the spiritual heritage of our Nation.”

Persecution Isn’t Just ‘Over There’

The Bible tells all Christians to expect persecution — and Americans are not excluded

Written by Carl Moeller | Thursday, June 28, 2012

As Hebrews 11:13-16 says: 13 These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. 14 For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. 15 If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

Written by Abdel Rahman Hussein, The Guardian | Thursday, June 28, 2012
