Panhandlers
What To Do About Public Begging

I hate panhandlers! It just strikes such a nerve with me to see people standing on the street corners of busy intersections holding cardboard signs begging for money. And I also dislike the panhandlers who walk up to me in the parking lot of a supermarket or department store asking for any cash I can give to them.

Sanctuary Churches
Religion and Illegal Immigration

The churches that offer sanctuary to illegal aliens and the church groups that help them in their efforts to remain illegally in this country claim that God’s law trumps our federal laws. But just how valid is such an assertion when religion clashes with the federal government on a subject as touchy as illegal immigration?

God Is Not Great
And Neither Are Atheists

Militant atheists religiously recite the mantra that more wars have been fought over religion than for anything else. There are even quite a number of believers who subscribe to this false argument. However, secularists like Christopher Hitchens refuse to examine the carnage wrought by atheistic regimes.

Christian Stereotypes
Diversity Training Gone Awry

Arizona State University implemented a diversity training program for its resident assistants that included the ugliest stereotypes for religion. The sensitivity exercise depicted Christians as being white hate mongering racists that involved role-playing them as bigots who had a hostile reaction to everybody.

Would Jesus Drive an SUV?
What Would Jesus Drive?

Many liberals insist that Jesus is actually an environmentalist who would opt to drive a fuel efficient green car like an environmentally conscientious hybrid (perhaps a Toyota Prius) instead of a gas-guzzling polluting SUV. But what kind of car do you think that Jesus would really drive?

Veggie Tales Gets Edited

Big Idea, the creators of the Veggie Tales children's cartoon series had a huge opportunity to reach mainstream audiences when NBC offered them a Saturday morning time slot. They knew some editing would be involved but they felt that the Christian message n the would remain intact. Wrong!

Opposing School Prayer
Conservatives Who Disagree

Yes, there are Conservatives who adamantly oppose the implementation of “school prayer” in our public school system but they do so for totally different reasons than why Liberals don't want it. And it is also for a reason that many religious conservatives would find quite difficult to refute.

Christmas Tree
Is it a Christian Symbol?

What is a Christian symbol? If asked this question, most people would mention the cross, the most visible symbol of Christianity worldwide. A close runner-up might be the fish, a symbol used by early Christians. But what about a Christmas tree? Does it have the same kind of meanings of other Christian symbols?

The 9-11 Cross
A New York Thing?

The 9-11 cross was found on the site of the World Trade Center atrocity. Two steel beams, welded together in the shape of a cross by the heat and violence of the destruction, found standing upright in the rubble of one of the towers. However, there are a number of people who despise such a symbol.

Green Catholics
The Environment and Catholicism

The Catholic Church, like many other denominations, is becoming increasingly vocal in combating global warming. The problem with turning environmentalism into a moral obligation is that it introduces a whole slew of problems such as inviting paganism into worship and the use of junk science to solve problems.

War On Christmas
Schools Avoid Christmas

School districts in the city I live bent over backwards in using safe and politically correct descriptions for the Christmas holidays. Most of the districts prefer to say Winter Break or Winter Holidays. They are not giving up on taking off for Christmas but they certainly don't want to say the word Christmas for that vacation.

Tomb of Jesus?
Or Just Another Hollywood Scam?

Hollywood director James Cameron, who dammed all straight men to three hours of hell with Titanic, is up to new antics. He has presented ancient artifacts of the tomb of Jesus. The timing of this discovery coincides with the promotion of his documentary and perhaps his anti-Christian, liberal agenda.

Challenge Islam and Don’t Back Down

Pope Benedict XVI ignited a controversy that reverberated throughout the Islamic world. Members of the “religion of peace” have predictably responded in stereotypical fashion with random violence and kooky demonstrations laced with plenty of inflammatory incendiary chants.

Pope Benedict XVI
Why All the Angst?

With all the wailing and gnashing of teeth of Benedict XVI as Pope, and other religious issues de jure, I have reached the conclusion that when it comes to religion, the left just doesn’t get it. It is just one more indicator to me of the basically secular humanist stance of the left and their inability to achieve even a basic understanding of religious institutions.

House of the Lord
How We Divide Ourselves

If we continue to fight each other we will be defeated in detail by the forces arrayed against us. For they don’t care whether we are Catholic or Baptist, Jewish or Mormon; they are against religion in general. And, if they succeed, we will know what it was like for the early Christians who were persecuted by the Romans.

Where have all the Christians Gone?
Missing in Action…

There have been radical changes in our society over the past 35-40 years. Things that my parents would have been horrified at when I was in grade school are commonplace today. And my parents are cool with their grandchildren doing and seeing things that I would never have been allowed to do or see when I was their age.
