PCA Petitions Biden Protesting Trans Surgeries for Minors: ‘Attempting the Impossible’

The PCA commission said children are uniquely vulnerable, exacerbated by social media and the alienation caused by the government's COVID-19 policies.

Written by Jon Brown | Tuesday, January 30, 2024

The commission grounded its petition in the teaching that God has special care for children, noting when Jesus Christ warned strongly against scandalizing children when he urged his disciples in Mark 10:14: “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.” Petitioning the government is an...

Is It Anti-woman to Be Anti-abortion?

Abortion advocates try to rewrite the history of feminism.

Written by Caleb Morell | Tuesday, January 30, 2024

The distinctive contribution of ‘Pity For Evil’, however, is that feminism need not be understood as synonymous with pro-abortion politics. A more historically rooted feminism grounds the value and dignity of women in their capacity for virtue and care, not in their ability to mimic male sexual appetites. In spite of the lip service paid to... Continue Reading

The Danger of Self-Soothing through Social Media

People have thrown up walls, thinking they’ve secured protection, while in reality, the security is a prison cell.

Written by Trevin Wax | Monday, January 29, 2024

Social media self-validation enshrines bad behavior as a sign of goodness. The very attitude or action that may be your problem, something to work on or try to modify, gets turned into proof of your goodness. Are you stubborn and obstinate? No, you’re standing strong when everyone else is trying to take you down. Are... Continue Reading

The Film 1946 Is Wrong

No, the belief that homosexual behavior is sinful is not due to a translation error.

Written by Denny Burk | Monday, January 29, 2024

The film contends that even though the second edition of the RSV dropped the word “homosexual,” the damage had already been done. Other English versions like the NIV, NASB, and the Living Bible followed the original RSV. This is the part where the film makes a wild jump. It presents the argument that because Billy...

Normalizing LGBTQ Pornography

Pornhub admits trying to push trans videos to straight men and teens.

Written by Ericka Andersen | Friday, January 26, 2024

We’re told that being LGBTQ is not a choice in any sense. We’re told it’s an immutable characteristic. We’re told we’re bigoted if we say otherwise. Yet, here is a concerted effort by Pornhub to “turn” straight men, those who’ve never entertained other orientations—and it’s working.    Pornhub is coming for our children and our...

Middle Schoolers are Now Using AI to Create ‘Deepfake’ Pornography of Their Classmates

A quick scan of recent headlines will give you a sense of where this is headed.

Written by Jonathon Van Maren | Thursday, January 25, 2024

The pornography crisis is being exacerbated further by AI, once again highlighting the unfortunate truth of a joke in tech circles: first we create new technology, then we figure out how to watch porn on it. The porn industry has ruined an untold number of lives. AI porn is taking that to the next level. We... Continue Reading

The First Amendment vs. The First Commandment

Americanism is the name I have given to a new dominant religion in our beloved nation.

Written by Larry Ball | Thursday, January 25, 2024

The religion of Americanism teaches us that God’s law is not valid outside of the church; maybe the last six of the Ten Commandments are valid (and even that is considered debatable), but certainly not the first four.  Modern theologians like to divide the ten commandments into parts, as if God has two minds.  We...

Four Christian Practices for Surviving Artificial Intelligence

Our responsibility is not to blindly go along with the waves of AI development but to ensure we’re forming ourselves rightly and rooting ourselves intentionally so we can stand true in the coming tides.

Written by JD Tyler | Tuesday, January 23, 2024

Companies like Meta want bots that can finish your sentences and fulfill your desires. They want their bots to be your companions, confidants, and first source of information. The victor in this market isn’t the one with the most money to spend. It’s the one who provides the most intimacy and lures you in. Personalization and... Continue Reading

Here’s What Conservative Institutional Capture Looks Like

People on the right need to think asymmetrically. When they do, they often find that there are many actions available to them that they didn’t even know they could and should be taking.

Written by Aaron M. Renn | Tuesday, January 23, 2024

If you are on the political right and want to change institutions, your best bet is to think like a private equity firm: take it over, restructure from the top, and be indifferent to the squawking about the changes. This isn’t always easy to do, of course. But as the case of state universities show, red... Continue Reading

Immunizing Students from Bad Ideas

Passing on a Christian worldview to our kids requires more than just telling them the truth.

Written by John Stonestreet and Shane Morris | Monday, January 22, 2024

The subjects most easily deceived were told things like, “You know brushing your teeth is good for you, right? You’ve been taught this since you were little. Trust us.” When they subsequently heard arguments they never had before, this group felt sheltered and even deceived.  The least vulnerable group were those who had not only... Continue Reading
