Christianity has been described as “Socially irrelevant, even if privately engaging.” Phil Johnson, executive Director of Grace to You, a Christian organization that features the preaching ministry of John MacArthur, writes that it’s wrong for Christians to lobby, rally voters, organize protests, and harness the evangelical movement for political clout.

The leftist media are mystified as to why Newt Gingrich is conjuring up the specter of the long-dead radical “community organizer” Saul Alinsky (1909–1972). The Christian Science Monitor is arguing that those in the Tea Party are the real Alinsky followers. Just for the record, Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals, the

The lies keep on coming. Someone once said that in “the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive

The Federal Reserve has come out with an economic outlook report. The low growth numbers led to a statement that interest rates would not be raised until late in 2014. MoneyNews.com offered this statement on the Federal Reserve action: The Federal Reserve has downgraded its outlook for economic growth this

Equivocation is a logical fallacy. To equivocate is to give “equal voice” — the same meaning — to a word when actually it has two distinct meanings. “The sign said ‘Fine for Parking Here.’ Since the sign said it was fine for parking, I parked there. In the first case,

I don’t get to listen to Rush Limbaugh that often. But on Monday, I was in my car and got to hear a conversation that Rush had with a black truck driver. Rush didn’t say much. He let the man talk, and talk he did. It was wonderful. He described

“I’ve been hearing a lot of these Republicans talking about, oh, that’s class warfare, and he just wants to redistribute, and doesn’t believe in work, and he’s trying to create an entitlement society, and this and that and the other. Let me be absolutely clear: I should pay more taxes,

On a Sunday morning appearance on “Fox & Friends,” conservative columnist Ann Coulter tried unsuccessfully to explain why Romney got beaten by Newt Gingrich in the South Carolina GOP presidential primary. Here’s what she said: “Apparently, South Carolinians would rather have the emotional satisfaction of a snotty remark toward the president than

On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court issued a 7-to-2 decision making abortion legal in the United States. Ever since that travesty of so-called justice, many people have felt uncomfortable about the decision. Even Newsweek as far back as 1988 was asking the right questions: And — perhaps most troubling

Newt Gingrich called President Obama “the best food-stamp president in American history.” Of course, liberals saw this as a coded racial slur: “I don’t think he is consciously whipping up bigotry, but he is no fool and this is going to be seen through a racial prism,” David Greenberg, an

Economics isn’t hard, unless you’re a liberal. Republican governor Chris Christie mocked a network graphic insisting that 55 percent of New Jersey residents think he’ll be Vice President and 68 percent don’t. In case you don’t see the problem with these numbers, 68% + 55% = 123%. We’ve heard about

Building codes and zoning laws have been used to deny the right of churches to establish or continue the operation of Christian schools. The IRS tried to impose racial and ethnic quotas on Christian schools during the Carter administration to deny tax exemption to schools that refused to comply with

I just got back from a recording session with the “Politichicks.” The four lovely young ladies asked me questions about the role Christianity played in the founding of America. In the short time I had, I addressed several topics. In order to answer the question, it’s necessary to get in

Christian pastors, you are now free to talk about politics from the pulpit. You can even endorse a candidate. And when your sermon is finished, you can register people to vote right in your church. Who gave you this right? Well, first, the men who drafted the Constitution, specifically, the

The majority of voters in Nevada are stupid, stupid for re-electing Harry Reid for another Senate term of six long years. And their stupidity is affecting all of us. First, I can’t listen to the man. He is so condescending. He sounds like he just recovered from a coma. Second,

Tax his land, Tax his bed, Tax the table, At which he’s fed. Tax his tractor, Tax his mule, Teach him taxes Are the rule. Tax his work, Tax his pay, He works for peanuts anyway! Tax his cow, Tax his goat, Tax his pants, Tax his coat. Tax his

When John Harrison was a senior at Druid Hills High School in DeKalb County, a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia, he was miffed when he was rebuffed by parents at a private school when they refused to purchase a discount coupon for Domino’s Pizza. The money was to go to his

Obamanomics has been described as Robin Hood economics, taking from the rich to give to the poor. Actually, Robin Hood took back from the king (and in some traditions of the story from corrupt clergymen) what had been taken from the people by the government. In terms of popular culture’s
