Men and women who have served in the military have returned with damaged psyches, broken bodies, and missing limbs. We won’t know for a long time if these causalities were worth it. For those who lost loved ones, it wasn’t worth it. I know they have to say it was,

Ireland overwhelmingly voted for same-sex marriage. Why does Ireland’s vote count when in the United States votes by state legislatures and the general public (e.g., California, Alabama, Texas) are often overruled by unelected judges? Why is it right in Ireland to vote for something and have it mean something, but

Those of us who have been following the debate over same-sex rights have known for decades that the number of homosexuals was never at the ten percent level. We knew it was around 2.5%. It’s probably less. WND reports: “A just-released Gallup survey says Americans ‘greatly overestimate’ the number of

New Atheist Richard Dawkins has gone on the attack again. This time he is attacking Young Earth Creationists (YEC). It’s all a ruse since he despises any type of creationism. The idea of creation by God gets in the way of his own religion of materialism and the establishment of

Lawmakers in New Jersey did a discriminatory thing. I realize that for most (probably all, although there are some liberal trolls) the readers of Godfather Politics will approve of what New Jersey has done. But take note of the fact there is no moral, logical, constitutional, traditional, legal, or scientific

Nancy Gertner, a retired federal judge and a professor at Harvard Law School, writing an opinion piece for the Boston Globe, is morally outraged that the jury in the trial of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in the Boston Marathon bombing trial unanimously chose the death penalty instead of life imprisonment for the

It seems that not all judges are whacked. Some judges, although few and far between, actually know some American history, logic, and the Constitution. Almost like clockwork, an atheist high school student, with support from an atheist group, filed a law suit last year against the Matawan-Aberdeen school district in

By now you have seen articles about a recent Pew Study report about  the decline of Christianity and the rise of atheists, agnostics, and “Nones.” Actually, what we are seeing is a spiritual house cleaning. Nominal Christians – Christians in name only — are becoming consistent with their shallow faith

I was driving along, listening to the radio, when I heard President Obama condemn rich folks for sending their children to non-government (private) schools.  We don’t dispute that the free market is the greatest producer of wealth in history — it has lifted billions of people out of poverty. We

Liberals knew that if they could capture the schools, they would have future generations of people agreeing with them on almost everything. And they’ve done this by making us pay for the rope they’re hanging us with. They sold parents on the premise that public education is “free.” In reality,

In a previous article I discussed the biblical principle of Christian resistance as it relates to the upcoming Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage. As was pointed out in that article, there are examples in the Bible of God’s people resisting direct commands by civil officials based on a very

In the fight against same-sex marriage, a number of Christian leaders are warning, “We will not obey. . . . We respectfully warn the Supreme Court not to cross that line,” reads a document titled Pledge in Solidarity to Defend Marriage. “We stand united together in defense of marriage. Make no mistake

I know I’m going to get into trouble for writing this article. That’s OK. It needs to be said. While there are numerous contributing factors as to why we are at this point in time with the Supreme Court about to redefine the very nature of the family and what

In addition to being the editor and a contributor to Godfather Politics, I also serve as president of American Vision, a Christian ministry that deals with biblical worldview issues. American Vision has been involved in issues like same-sex marriage, politics, economics, education, ethics, atheism, creation and evolution, apologetics, and many

“A federal judge in North Carolina has ruled that commissioners in one local county can’t present prayers only in Jesus’ name even if they all are Christians because doing so isn’t ‘nondiscriminatory’ toward other religions and elevates Christianity in government.” If this is true, then the United States Constitution as

Definitions are everything in a debate. Controlling the language is crucial. People who engage in sex with people of the same sex are masters at manipulating the language to their advantage. It’s taken them time to chisel “gayness” as a state of being in granite, and they’ve nearly accomplished the

“The American Civil Liberties Union tweeted Friday that ‘Black Spring has begun’ and called on the protesters to know their rights.” For more than 50 years liberals have claimed that the way to help the poor was to transfer wealth from the rich to the poor. It hasn’t worked. It’s only

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders is an honest Socialist. He’s not the only Socialist in Congress; he’s the only self-admitted one. Sanders is going to be a problem for the Democrats since he’s going to sound a lot like them, which means he’s going to out the Democrat Party as being
