My wife and I watched Walking With the Enemy the other night. It’s based on a true story of how the Jews were persecuted, stripped of their property, and murdered during the Nazi occupation of Hungary. The German Nazis were bad enough, but it was the Hungarian collaborators who were the

When the master of Frederick Douglass (1818–1895) discovered that his wife was teaching his 12-year-old slave to read the Bible, he stopped her. “If he learns to read the Bible it will make him ever unfit to be a slave,” her husband said. In no time “he’ll be running away

The University of California Berkeley is in the news for its anti-free speech policies that only apply to conservative speech. Liberals have used the American system of liberty and freedom to gain power and then shut the door behind them once they are in power. The Berkeley “Free Speech Movement” of

Tom Perez, the new radical Leftist chairman of the Democratic National Committee, is not only foul-mouthed, but he’s a merchant of death. First, there was this: “During an interview on MSNBC’s Morning Joe on April 4, new DNC Chair Tom Perez doubled down on his statement during a rally in Newark, N.J., on

Not only is Bill Nye not a scientist, but he’s also not a historian or a student of the United States Constitution. Anybody can make any written document say anything if portions of it are taken out of context. It’s done with the Bible all the time. The second most misquoted and

The news is giddy over the latest march. This time it was the “March for Science” as if most Americans are against science. Once some group claims there’s a problem (whether it’s real or not) the government needs to do something to fix it. And what’s the number one way

Who would have thought that in the buckle of the Bible Belt that a Christian would be forbidden from speaking to other students about the redemptive work of Jesus Christ? But it happened. At Georgia Gwinnett College, in one of the most conservative areas of Georgia, the administration of the

The special election in the 6th congressional district in Georgia is headed for a runoff. In what has been described as a “Jungle Primary,” if any one candidate did not get 50 percent of the vote, the two top vote-getters would meet in a final election. The supposed Trump-slayer, Jon Ossoff, a

To determine students’ level of basic civic knowledge, The Goldwater Institute surveyed Arizona high school students with questions drawn from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) item bank, which consists of 100 questions given to candidates for United States citizenship. You can take a practice test here. It’s

Some mad-cap leftists are protesting to force Pres. Trump (that sounds so much better than what could have been – Pres. Hillary Clinton) to release his tax forms. The no longer funny Sarah Silverman got into the act over the weekend at an anti-Trump rally: “Show us your f*cking taxes,

Most people have heard of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939), about a naïve Senator who ends up taking on the establishment. It’s one of AMC’s Top 100 films. It stars Jimmy Stewart and Jean Arthur. It was not popular with the political establishment crowd when it first came out:

I’m a Pittsburgh Steelers fan. I grew up in Pittsburgh, a rabid sports town with championship teams in hockey, baseball, and football. Pittsburgh fans are loyal to a fault. Each time I visit my hometown, I notice more people wearing sports memorabilia than in any other city, although New York

College is now “free” in New York. But if you take the “free” money, you can’t leave the state until you pay it back. Pay it back to the State, not the people the money was stolen from to pay for the “free” college. Let’s suppose you want to send

How often have you heard it said that we must be living in the last days because of all the bad things that are happening in the world? It’s been a standard claim among Christian prophecy prognosticators for centuries. Name any war, plague, natural disaster, earthquake, famine, or decline in

A white person could never say something similar regarding black people. Even so, the following statement is statistically true: “The father of a now-former UCLA star basketball player said that the white starters for this season’s squad were ‘too slow’ afoot to help win a national championship. “‘Realistically, you can’t

I’m writing this article the day my wife and I sail to Naples, Italy. Mount Vesuvius is near the coast of the Bay of Naples. “Pompeii, along with Herculaneum and many villas in the surrounding area, was mostly destroyed and buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft.)

“Twenty-three-year-old Zach Peters of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, caught three masked burglars breaking into his house one night, and the end result were three shots by Peters from his AR-15, and three dead burglars. The burglars brought two weapons — brass knuckles and a knife — but neither melee weapon fared well against Peters’ rifle.
