Dolly Parton Condemns Christians for Being Against Gay Sex
I don’t expect Dolly Parton to be a theologian, but you don’t have to be one when you read what the Bible says about same-sex sexuality. Once a person appeals to God for something, that person is stuck with God’s opinion on that something. Of course, even if a person

Did You Know “Jesus Was a Marxist”?
Dan Arel, author of Parenting without God, has written that Jesus was a Marxist. I’m not sure why an atheist would care. Let’s begin with a true statement made by Arel: “If you have read the Bible, you then know much about the story of Jesus and how he helped

Public School Bans Christian Books
Officials at Springs Charter School in Temecula, California, must have misunderstood what Banned Book Week (Sept. 21-27, 2014) is all about. The celebration is not about why it’s good and proper to ban books; it’s about the freedom to read. The sponsors of the celebration are against banning books unless,

Tullian Tchividjian claims Evangelicals are Damaging Christianity because of Politics
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

Elton John: Bible Scholar and Mind Reader
As I’ve mentioned numerous times, liberals love to quote the Bible, but only if they get to manipulate and interpret it. In a recent interview, Hillary Clinton said, “the Bible was and remains the biggest influence on my thinking.” Then why does she support same-sex sexuality and the wholesale slaughter

Are There Limits to Loving My Enemies?
I saw the following post on Facebook that came from the article “What’s So Complicated About ‘Love Your Enemies’?” written by Benjamin L. Corey: “I’ve been trying to figure out why this is the case for quite some time. I must admit, out of all of the controversial topics I’ve

The “Jesus Was a Socialist” Meme and Lie
“If Jesus had been born 30 years ago, Fox News and the Republican Party would label him a dangerous Middle Eastern man who wants to impose socialism on the world and enable the poor.” The above meme is making its way around Facebook. The last time I checked, it’s not

Hillary Clinton Turns to Jesus to Promote the Welfare State
Liberals love the Bible when they can turn it into Silly Putty. They can find support for every leftist doctrine as long as they skip words, read verses out of context, and read their own views into specific texts. Even the Devil quoted the Bible (Matt. 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13), so

Salon Writer: “There is no Message against Same-Sex Marriage”
I love a challenge. I’m competitive by nature. I hate to lose. So when I saw the headline that there is no message against same-sex marriage in the Bible, I felt a challenge coming on. Has somebody come up with an argument I’ve never encountered? I’ve read all the arguments

New Atheist Banner: If There is No God There are No Sins (or Crimes)
Atheists love to proclaim how rational and logical they are. Here’s the latest display of their powers of reasoning: “An atheist group upset at a Concerned Women for America Easter display that includes a Christian cross and various anti-abortion materials has now countered with an addition of their own: A

London Park Authority Says Whale is “Too Religious”
“A London park authority has stopped plans to put a giant inflatable whale beside the Thames because it would be ‘too religious.’ The Bible Society had hoped to place the mock 50ft sperm whale in a park opposite Tower Bridge to illustrate the story of Jonah.” Will they next ban

My Theological Take on the Noah Film
The new Noah film is getting a lot of attention, some negative and some positive. My take on it is a little different. It’s hard to take a biblical story and turn it into a movie. It’s been tried many times with the meaning of the story lost in the

Would Jesus Bake a Cake For and Attend a Homosexual Wedding?
CNN is reporting that “Arizona’s Legislature has passed a controversial bill that would allow business owners, as long as they assert their religious beliefs, to deny service to gay and lesbian customers.” If Gov. Jan Brewer signs it, the courts will rule it unconstitutional. This all started when states passed

There are Marxists in Your Church Ready to Pick Your Pocket in the Name of Jesus
My article on the inauguration of Bill de Blasio caused one Facebook reader to take me to task for identifying the newly sworn in mayor as a Marxist. When a politician starts talking about “income inequality” and promises to use the authority and force of government to “correct” it, that

Homosexual Propaganda Machine Revs its Engines Against Phil Robertson
The homosexual propaganda machine got blindsided by Phil Robertson. They thought they had this gay thing all wrapped up. It remains to be seen how it’s all going to come down, but there is a great opportunity to take on the rhetorical tyrants and corporate bullies. There are more of

The ‘Jesus Had Two Dads’ Myth
My wife and I taught our two sons never to call somebody or something stupid. If you use a word too often it loses its meaning. It’s the same with a well-placed but rare expletive. Sometimes it’s needed to make a point. Here’s something that’s really stupid from St. John’s

Superman, Jews, Jesus, and Dispelling Despair
“It’s a bird. It’s a plane. No, it’s … Jesus?” This was the opening line to a Fox news article on the premier of the new Superman film. A number of articles have made the “Jesus Connection.” This is from The Daily Mail: “Marketers for the newest Hollywood Superman movie,

Let’s Stop Presidents from Using Bible to Take Inauguration Oath
We need to stop presidents from taking their constitutional oath with their hand on the Bible, swearing before God that they will uphold the Constitution all the while knowing they won’t. Their campaigns and policies tell us that they will not follow the Constitution to the letter. The Constitution is
