Scotland’s New Hate Crime Law Is No Laughing Matter

‘Equality before the law’, that’s just so old-fashioned! Now we have the State creating a two-tier justice system where some groups are afforded ‘protected’ status and others are attacked. 

Written by David Robertson | Monday, April 8, 2024

This Act will pervade through all of Scottish society. Even children are to be targeted. School handbooks now explain that all hate crimes should be reported to the police. Journalist Jim Spence wrote in the Courier that Scotland is about to become a “two-tier society” where “some folk are given protection by the law from... Continue Reading

Let’s Not Bemoan a World That Doesn’t Think the Way We Wish They Would

What people need is less an Easter invite and more a Christian friend who will tell them about Jesus and why we think the cross and the resurrection are at all important.

Written by Stephen Kneale | Monday, April 8, 2024

We need to get less cross about pagans thinking like pagans, and bemoan the fact that we are a minority group in a pagan land these days, and instead make effort to simply love and befriend a lost world in need of a Jesus they know precious little about. Being grumpy that the world isn’t... Continue Reading

The Godless Return: Peterson, Tate, and Spengler’s “Second Religiosity”

The difficulty that a Jordan Peterson or an Andrew Tate have articulating faith in God is paradigmatic of the West’s decline.

Written by Carlos Perona Calvete | Monday, April 8, 2024

We have here two prominent, globally-known spokesmen for what we might call the anti-woke, sociologically right-wing side of things. That they invoke personal and social utility to justify belief in God, rather than classical theistic formulations, at once more robust and more straightforward, strongly suggests that we are dealing with what the historian Oswald Spengler...

Trumpite Evangelicalism or Bidenist Catholicism?

It is surely a time for Christians to remember St. Paul’s call to focus on heavenly things.

Written by Carl R. Trueman | Monday, April 8, 2024

Given the extremity of the president’s rhetoric and the confident damning of any who might demur, it seems legitimate to ask (yet again) how much gender theory and gender “science” Joe Biden has read. One has to assume he is an expert, given that he feels comfortable dismissing anyone who dissents as motivated by hate... Continue Reading

Religious Need not Apply, Says Oregon

State officials strip state funding from Oregon youth ministry for its hiring practices.

Written by Liz Lykins | Thursday, April 4, 2024

In July, the Department of Education awarded 71Five several grants worth over $400,000. But three months later, a state official notified the nonprofit by email that their grants were being taken back, saying that the nonprofit was disqualified from the grant programs because of its hiring practices.   An Oregon youth ministry is challenging state...

Orthodoxy Is Not Optional

Neuhaus’ law remains undefeated—and a challenge for the faithful.

Written by Barton J. Gingerich | Tuesday, April 2, 2024

Whenever voices make a push to make orthodoxy optional, the faithful have a choice: to relent or to fight. And, if they fight, they will inevitably be painted as Big Meanies. When Christian colleges fire liberalizing faculty members, or when denominational authorities uphold church discipline against pastoral officers who violate ordination vows via heretical teaching...

Abortion Is Shameful, Act like It

Return to normalcy.

Written by Sean Ross Callaghan | Tuesday, April 2, 2024

Most abortions are committed by women destined to remain childless. A vast majority of normal American women intend never to commit an abortion, never do, and instead want to start a family. Rejecting abortions is normal. Having abortions is not.   Recently in Ohio, a constitutional amendment to allow some abortion-on-demand narrowly passed a popular... Continue Reading

Surgical and Sexological Practices? Not Today, Satan

Andrew Sullivan, Judith Butler, and C.S. Lewis

Written by Anne Kennedy | Tuesday, April 2, 2024

Fortunately for us, Satan lacks self-control. He can’t keep anything within reasonable proportion. He can’t be content with transing just some of the kids. He must trans all of them. He must destroy every human body on the way to devouring every precious soul. And so, eventually, all the confused speech becomes such a deafening... Continue Reading

When “Helping” Kids Hurts Them

Why the generation accessing the most mental therapy is the most mentally unhealthy.

Written by John Stonestreet and Shane Morris | Tuesday, April 2, 2024

For Christians who understand that human beings are more than matter that can be molded and medicated, the need for a book like this is even more obvious. Divine revelation and millennia of insight suggest that much of what passes for “psychological trauma” today is spiritual brokenness. Spiritual healing can take the form of counseling...

Steeped in Fragility

Jonathan Haidt describes how a smartphone-based childhood works against making children resilient.

Written by Carolyn D. Gorman | Monday, April 1, 2024

For the vast majority of children, mental-health treatment will not be necessary. Kids are resilient. Just as a smoker who quits will immediately boost his life expectancy, kids who spend less time and attention on platforms designed to be addictive and anxiety-inducing have a chance to bounce back. Haidt’s proposals can help give them that... Continue Reading
