I live just a few miles from the most pro-gun city in the United States – Kennesaw Georgia – where gun ownership is mandatory. It’s not the “Wild West” like some people predicted when it passed a mandatory gun ownership law. “The city of Kennesaw was selected by Family Circle

Abraham Lincoln is a political icon to those on the Left and Right. Conservatives like Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck consider him to be our nation’s greatest president, as do many others. Some have compared Barack Obama to Lincoln. Check out the CBS article “The Obama-Lincoln Parallel: A Closer Look”

I’ll go out on a limb and say “no,” the apocalypse will not happen in 2012. There are several reasons I’m almost certain. First, the Greek word apokalupsis means “to unveil, uncover, lay open what has covered up.” The first verse in the book of Revelation reads: “The Revelation of

The headline was shocking: “German Cannibal Convicted of Manslaughter.” Armin Meiwes had killed Bernd Brandes, a 48-year-old computer engineer, and eaten him sautéed with garlic, black pepper, potatoes, sprouts, and washed it all down, of course, with a bottle of red wine. Brandes had responded to the following advertisement posted

It’s been said that the victors write the textbooks. I supposed this is the way it should be. As a nation, if we want to know who has won the ideological war in America, take a look at the our textbooks and popular writing on historical subjects. Dr. Gary North

Every December a battle ensues over the acknowledgement that the 25th is a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. It’s called Christmas. Retailers who make a boat load of money during the Christmas season have tried to walk the narrow line of political correctness by using the less religious

I remember sitting in a hotel lobby after the Reagan landslide in 1980 and watching one liberal Democrat after another going down in defeat. It was a good feeling, but I knew it wouldn’t last. It wouldn’t be long before the GOP establishment would co-opt the Regan Revolution. By 1988,

Did Sam Walton know that his small company would make him and his family billions of dollars? No. Did he hope that Walmart would make him a lot of money? You bet. “The Waltons are now collectively worth about $93 billion, according to Forbes.” Does the wealth of the Walton

There are those who “suspect the Obama administration used the gun-running operation [Fast and Furious] to support regulations Congress would not even consider, namely, a rule requiring gun stores in the Southwest to report anyone who tries to buy multiple ‘long guns,’ or rifles, in a one-week period.” The border

Take a look at this December 1972 “Christmas Message” that appeared in Delta Digest, a monthly publication by the Public Relations Department of Delta Air Lines. Delta has come a long way in 38 years. Now they’re one of the official sponsors of the annual Gay Pride parade. A Christmas Message

There, I can use the “hate” word, too. Every time a conservative objects to some Liberal practice or policy, he’s described as a “hater” or using “hate speech.” Well, back at you! The latest hate-fest is taking place in Pitman, New Jersey. People are taking sides over a banner that

If you listen to Liberals, Jesus was a socialist and the Bible calls for wealth redistribution. There are many Christians who maintain that economics is a “neutral” enterprise where religion in general and Christianity in particular don’t apply to this world and time. Liberals only quote the Bible when they

“Republican presidential candidate Jon Huntsman Jr. is hinting he might run at the top of a third-party ticket if he doesn’t win his party’s nomination,” the folks at The Daily are reporting. After vowing to run as a Republican or nothing at all, Huntsman gave himself a little wiggle room

When you hear the words “fair” and “fairness,” you know you are hearing Marxism wrapped in a velvet-covered brick. Fairness, as President Obama is using the term, is the center plank of Marxism: From each according to his ability, to each according to their needs. The slogan was popularized by

We’ve been told that President Obama is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the president of the Harvard Law Review. Anybody who gets into Columbia and Harvard has to have some smarts. Then please tell me why he often sounds so stupid. At a

A 2009 study is said to have showed that swearing might help to mute the pain of an injury. A new study claims the same result, both of which are a waste of time and money. “It taps into emotional brain centers and appears to arise in the right brain,

Christians are often accused of wanting to replace the Constitution with the Bible. There could be someone out there who might have said this. If you hunt long enough, you can always find a sound-bite from a no-name character to make your already concluded case. The charge sets up a

For atheists, the First Amendment is a one-way street. They don’t believe in “freedom of religion” but “freedom from religion.” The Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) sent a letter to the Onslow County Board of Commissioners on Nov. 16, asking the board to stop Sheriff Ed Brown from creating any
