Concluding our impromptu series of citations from Alex Epstein’s book, The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels (2014), this week’s post addresses a commonly heard claim by environmental activist-types that has resulted from compounded misrepresentations of actual scientific research. Mr. Epstein, if you will… “This brings us to the oft-cited comment that 97 percent of climate […]
“I will not rest until the American people have the honest vote count they deserve and that democracy demands.” — President Donald Trump President Trump refuses to concede the election, and I don’t blame him! Some are calling for Trump to just “let it go” in the name of peace and unity, etc. For those […]
As with yesterday’s bonus post, today’s post is a citation of recent Facebook comments by Scott Klusendorf, President of Life Training Institute, the formatting of which I have adjusted for readability. “Yesterday, a pastor of a politically diverse congregation asked what he should say to his people about voting. Here is what I sent him… […]
Tonight’s bonus post is the first of two commentaries from Scott Klusendorf, President of Life Training Institute. Though it is pretty much quoted verbatim, I have taken the liberty of adjusting the formatting a little for readability…. “Here’s what I’ve never understood about evangelicals who endorse Biden: Why is Donald Trump’s character an obstacle to […]
“With Trump, we will get good policies and character flaws, but with Biden we will get bad policies and character flaws.” — Wayne Grudem, author, theologian, and seminary professor I was originally going to comment on one or both of Wayne Grudem’s recent articles (you can read them here and here), but then I came […]

We have all heard the claims and warnings — some quite hysterical — that our use of fossil fuels is recklessly irresponsible and immoral. If we don’t make dramatic changes ASAP, the end of civilization will be upon us in mere decades, if not just a few years. But, this is nothing new. Since at […]
Once again, All Hallows’ Eve is fast approaching, and jack o’lanterns, costumes, and trick-or-treating for candy become the topics of much conversation, particularly when children are involved. But, Christian parents (and some others) have to weigh serious concerns about occultic themes, etc., versus their children’s enjoyment and inclusion in Halloween activities. Not letting your child […]
The Black Lives Matter movement is an incredibly divisive movement with corrosive values (and I’m not talking about holding brutal and racist cops accountable), and Critical Race Theory is its driving force. We need to be aware of what they really are, so we can better defend against them. With that in mind, I wanted […]
“I am unaware that any nation of the globe has hitherto organized a judicial power in the same manner as the Americans…. A more imposing judicial power was never constituted by any people.” — Alexis de Tocqueville As promised, President Trump has announced his nominee to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the […]
