What’s a simple definition of slavery?: “submission to a dominating influence.” If a person is forced to do work against his will, then that person is a slave. Slavery has returned to the United States, this time in the state of Colorado: “Colorado’s Civil Rights Commission on Friday ordered a

As Danny Devito’s character, Vincent Benedict, in Twins (1988) so aptly put it, “Money talks and bull s–t walks.” Trump’s talking with his money. You can’t get any better than that. This latest story is about Donald Trump offering President Obama $50 million for his birth records and $5 million

Franklin Graham has come out with a broadside against pastors. He describes some of today’s pastors as “cowards” for not addressing the social evils of our day. “Graham told a large gathering of pastors on [May 22] to address controversial issues from the pulpit, declaring that ‘God hates cowards.’” Ouch!

A painting I saw led me to write this article. It’s posted below. In 1982 I wrote the first volume in what became a three-volume set called God and Government. It has since been republished in one volume. I run into people all the time who tell me that they

If Eliot Rodger had any ties to conservatives, the media would have jumped on the story with both feet. Of course, they had a real problem on their hands since Rodger is the son of Hollywood types. His father is an assistant director. Where were the media going to find

Nearly everybody is up in arms over the VA scandal. As usual, President Obama voiced his outrage and moved on. To show that he cares, he visited the troops in Afghanistan. He’s had six years to fix what he claimed in 2008 needed to be fixed. The fact that “he

While doing some research for a previous article, I came across an article published by American Forces Press Service and posted on the U.S. Department of Defense website. I was shocked when I read it, especially since the VA scandal erupted. The medical facility in Guantanamo is said to be

There are some things you can’t make up. “Democratic Florida Rep. Joe Garcia — fresh off being caught eating his own earwax on camera — was caught red-handed (or is it yellow-fingered?) in another gaffe this week, claiming that low crime rates in border cities with lots of federal immigration

One of the most frightening trends in American law is using regulations to nullify our fundamental rights, especially those found in the First Amendment. The most prevalnent tactic is campus speech codes. We’ve seen it with zoning ordinances. A Bible study group meets in homes and zoning regulations claim that

It wasn’t that long ago that President Obama and Hillary Clinton opposed homosexual marriage. You and I know that they did this to get elected. How things have changed. To oppose same-sex marriage is now thought to be a criminal offense. Michael McCann of Sports Illustrated, a writer with a

Women’s and Gender Studies have been a big deal on college campuses for decades. Queer studies have been added, thus making women who major in these fields unemployable. Women who major in these fields would be sending up a red flag to any employer (except a college or university). They

Saira Blair is in high school and she just won the Republican primary for the West Virginia House of Delegates. “Soft-spoken and on-message, Blair is a churchgoer who says she is pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun rights and pro-business. She can rattle off a laundry list of businesses taxes she wants abolished

My wife and I and our children bank with SunTrust. We’ve been with them for decades. My business accounts are also with SunTrust. Then I read an article posted on the DailyCaller website that made by blood boil and just before I was to have a life screening battery of

So-called Moderate Muslims are protesting the 9/11 Museum because of the film “The Rise of Al Qaeda.” “An interfaith group is protesting a film called, ‘The Rise of Al Qaeda,’ that will be shown at the National September 11 Memorial Museum when it opens next month. “The advisory group is

Liberals never give up. When they lose one battle, they fight another one. When the facts don’t support their cause, no problem, they ignore the facts and claim “the debate is over.” It’s similar to a first grader who gets his feelings hurt and decides to take his ball and

You’ve got to watch this video. It is an open and shut case of “selective amnesia” by President Obama, Hillary Clinton, the Democrats, and the media. Trey Gowdy III has served as the U.S. Representative for South Carolina’s 4th congressional district since 2011. If the Republicans had more people like

Whoever controls the language controls the debate. Whoever controls the debate controls the laws. Whoever controls the laws controls the people. Defining and redefining words are important to move along new social, cultural, and political trends for the purpose of empowerment. Liberals have a long history of picking the right

The rise of the new atheists is getting a lot of attention. They are everywhere. It’s fashionable to be a new atheist. It’s the “in thing.” I can hear people at fashionable cocktail parties saying, “Yes, I’m an atheist.” Someone overhears the conversation and joins in, “I’m also an atheist.
