I’m in Phoenix at the moment about to speak on the topic of “A Nation ‘Under God’: Hype, Hysteria, or Heritage?” If you listen to groups like the Freedom from Religion Foundation that sued the IRS to get it to monitor churches on the political content of their sermons, a

Some people (maybe many) may be outraged by the title of this article. But it’s true. The right to keep and bear arms is an inalienable right. We have the right to protect ourselves. If there are people with knives who want to do me harm, then I have a

“From the Al-Qassam Brigades to the Zionist soldiers: The Al-Qassam Brigades love death more than you love life.” When people comment on world conditions they often put the worst and inevitable slant on them. Crisis politics leads to fear, a loss of liberty, and economic repression. I’m reminded of a

The twentieth century began on an optimistic note but quickly lost its idealism as war engulfed the world. World War I “shattered much of Europe’s already fading optimism, and the advent of Nazis and fascists shook men’s confidence in their present and their past.”1 Despite a bloody world war, belief

Even though our nation’s motto is ‘In God We Trust,’ Tarrant County tax assessor and collector Ron Wright is being attacked for violating the made up constitutional provision of separating church and state for adding the phrase to his office’s envelopes and tax statements. The ironic part of all of

This article is not about who is right or wrong in the ongoing Israeli-Hamas-Palestinian conflict. It’s about a religious belief that is being used to justify the conflict based on Genesis 12:3. Does this passage apply to what prophecy aficionados claim for it? I don’t believe it does. Every nation

Finding justification for perversion is a full time job these days. every effort is being made to make the unnatural, illogical, and immoral into a celebration of pride. First there were just homosexuals and heterosexuals. Now there is a full array of sexual types that we will be forced to

A number of writers are arguing that America’s borders should be completely open. Free access to all! It’s the very nature of freedom. How could a tyrant like Adolf Hitler have used open borders to his political advantage? Remember, given the premise of those who don’t want any borders or

It’s my guess that you have never heard of James MacGregor Burns. He was a Saul Alinsky who had a longer career. It’s the guys behind the scenes that are most troubling to our Republic. They work at dismantling the foundation stones of what made America the envy of the

In a statement from the White House, marking the end of Ramadan, President Obama said the following: “In the United States, Eid [a Muslim holiday] also reminds us of the many achievements and contributions of Muslim Americans to building the very fabric of our nation and strengthening the core of

In a previous article, I reported on how the IRS has teamed up with the anti-Christian organization the Freedom from Religion Foundation to monitor churches to make sure they don’t speak out on the subject of politics in a way that seems to be “partisan.” As I showed, there is

I was speaking to Dr. Gary North Friday morning about the talk he gave at the Mises University, the annual week-long training program for undergraduates, which is sponsored by the Ludwig von Mises Institute. Judge Andrew Napolitano was there as well. He “was presenting a week-long series of lectures on

The following is from Freedom Outpost: “The Internal Revenue Service settled a 2012 lawsuit brought by the Freedom from Religion Foundation (FFRM). The lawsuit was settled after the IRS agreed to monitor what is said in houses of worship.” Monitoring churches is something the Nazis did. When German anti-Nazi theologian

Pastor Tullian Tchividjian (pronounced cha-vi-jin), the grandson of famed evangelist Billy Graham and senior pastor at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, “believes that evangelical Christianity has been tarnished by its association with the religious right.” Tarnished by whom? Who is making this claim and where are they getting their

Those calling for our southern border to be opened to everybody are arguing that those entering the United States are being persecuted. This is hardly the case. They are being told that America is the land of opportunity. Because of our generous welfare system and generally Christian worldview, these children

If you ever played a team sport, you’ll understand this analogy. When you have a pitcher who is not throwing strikes, what does the coach tell his batters? Don’t swing until he throws a strike. When a man is walked on four straight balls, the next batter knows not to

Anti-bullying campaigns are having unintended consequences. Not only are playground and school bullies being rebuffed and put down, but bullying organizations like the ACLU are being put in their place. The ACLU is not the government. There is no reason that any organization can’t tell the ACLU to take a

We can call it the “We’re just like you, so vote for Hillary in 2016” meme. Talk about income inequality. Bill and Hillary Clinton are worth millions of dollars. Bill Clinton’s net worth is around $80 million. Hillary’s net worth is more than $20 million. That gives them a total
