In a speech to the National Press Club in 1997, Charlton Heston said, “Now, I doubt any of you would prefer a rolled up newspaper as a weapon against a dictator or a criminal intruder.” Dr. Ben Carson started a firestorm of controversy with his comments about gun control in

It’s weirder and weirder. President has had more to say about not offending Muslims in prison than he has about Christians who were targeted by the Oregon murderer. “The federal Bureau of Prisons, a subdivision of President Barack Obama’s Justice Department, has banished all pork products from the menus in all

While doing some research for an article on the Ten Commandments display in Oklahoma, I came across the following comments in a Wikipedia article on Charlton Heston (1923-2008) who starred in the 1956 film The Ten Commandments. They were prescient. Unlike so many Republicans today, Heston wasn’t afraid to speak his mind.

A Ten Commandments monument has been removed from the grounds of the State Capitol in Oklahoma at the insistence of the ACLU. What makes a law a law? Why is it wrong to murder, steal, and lie, three of the Ten Words (Decalogue) found in Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5

The media are describing the leadership resignation of John Boehner and the attempt to vote in a new Speaker of the House as “chaos among Republicans.” One RINO Republican described what’s going on with conservatives flexing (finally) their political muscles as a “banana republic.” In a banana republic the opposition

There’s been a great deal of discussion about gun rights, gun confiscation, gun free zones, and the most controversial, if Jews had been armed in Germany during the Nazi Party’s rise to power, would it have made a difference? Dr. Ben Carson wrote in his new book A Perfect Union, “Through a

The final result of economic equality makes everyone equally poor. What’s the best way to get wealth in the hands of people? There are several methods. The most popular (and destructive) is for the wealthy to be taxed so their “excess” wealth can be redistributed to the less fortunate. This works

Once again we have a politician using the Bible to support a political position. This time it’s Ohio governor John Kasich, a Republican, believes the Bible can be used to support taking money from some people so it can be given to other people. He’s critical of people who oppose

Guns aren’t the problem. People who misuse guns are. The same is true of knives, automobiles, antifreeze, prescription and illegal drugs, fertilizer and fuel oil, and water. There’s a horrible story coming from Savannah, Georgia: “Police in Savannah were investigating the deaths of two children Tuesday afternoon. “They said they

Ted Cruz is the smartest guy running for President. He’s the most tenacious as well. He’s a bulldog with a mild manner. That’s why liberals and RINOs hate him and fear him. I can’t understand why he’s not higher in the polls. He would do the best in one-on-one debates.

The liberal cry is for more restrictions on guns. First, there are hundreds — maybe thousands — of restrictions. President Obama recently issued 23 Executive Orders making it harder for people to purchase guns. Second, the vast majority of guns owners never kill anyone. Why should their God-given and constitutional

Has the world changed enough to see modern-day Russia in a new light? Vladimir Putin has attacked the United States on ideological grounds. The following is from “Who’s Godless Now? Russia Says It’s U.S.” “At the height of the Cold War, it was common for American conservatives to label the officially atheist Soviet

The nation was rightly horrified when Christians in a black church in Charleston, South Carolina, were gunned down. There was so much outrage that anything Confederate was considered to be an affront to civil rights. Flags were removed, names of Confederate Generals were expunged, and some even advocated digging up

“The newspaper has no prerogative to challenge God’s word of truth. Nor do those who read the newspapers.” ((Greg L. Bahnsen, “The Prima Facie Acceptability of Postmillennialism,” The Journal of Christian Reconstruction, Symposium on the Millennium, ed. Gary North, 3:2 (Winter 1976–77), 53–55.)) With Russia involved in Syria, the prophecy

The Supreme Court got played by the gay lobby. The Justices believed that the push to legalize same-sex marriage was an issue of liberty, toleration, and inclusiveness – an “equal treatment under the law.” Even the Libertarians fell for the scam. It turns out that homosexuals wanted to make marriage

Let’s think like a liberal for a moment. We won’t do it too long since some of you are susceptible to headaches and fits of anger and rage at the mere thought of thinking like a liberal. Sometime’s it’s necessary. It called “forcing the antithesis,” adopting the operating assumptions of

Yesterday’s edition of USA Today (September 30, 2015) carried the following headline: “Poll: By 2-1, funding for Planned Parenthood supported.” Read More: “PP’s Cecile Richards: ‘Abortion is Health Care.’” Here are the opening paragraphs: “Some congressional Republicans remain determined to cut off federal funding for Planned Parenthood, but a nationwide

Who’s really intolerant? The Left. Liberals. Pro-abortionists. Pro-homosexuals. You name the positon, and I’ll name the intolerants. Go on most college campuses, and you will find a nearly closed system. The Free Speech Movement of the 1960s has become the “No Speech But Approved Speech Movement” of the 21st century.
