For months now, the Democrats/liberals have been mocking Republicans/conservatives for having no ideas or solutions for healthcare reform or to address the energy issue or jobs & the economy, etc. (I pointed out in a previous post that this was baloney.) In his State of the Union Address, President Obama went on record again challenging […]
Ever had a problem finding a time to see your doctor that was convenient for both you and them? Sometimes it’s even hard to reach them by phone or email to make that appointment. Ever resorted to “stopping by” the ER when s/he is on duty, despite the likely added costs and wait, just because […]
Major defense contractor Trijicon has been at the center of some debate, lately. It seems that the company, whose late founder Glyn Bindon was a devout Christian, has for three decades been inscribing Bible verses on its products. (Well, just the references, really — like 2COR4:6.) The equipment is sold to governments such as the […]
The U.S. Supreme Court today struck a blow for the First Amendment. In a 5-4 ruling, significant parts of the campaign finance law popularly known as McCain-Feingold were judged unconstitutional. In particular, it was affirmed that the government cannot restrict corporate or union spending for or against candidates in Presidential and Congressional elections. The justices […]
The 2004 discovery (reported in 2006) of a well-preserved fossil creature dubbed Tiktaalik was hailed as the “missing link” that finally solidified the “fish to tetrapod” transition — a “snapshot” of “a fossil fish in the act of adapting toward a life on land”. Dated to 375-383 Mya, Tiktaalik was concluded to be an intermediary […]
Once again, the evidence flies in the face of evolutionary (i.e., neo-Darwinian) theory. Or, does it? A new discovery in Poland (see here or here) places the oldest tetrapod several million years earlier than the supposed transitional forms that biologists have been touting as proof of fish evolving into land animals. Naturally, this has caused […]
About a month ago, Mark Mix wrote an op-ed column in the Washington Examiner, explaining why his organization is suing the Obama administration. Who is Mark Mix? He is the President of the National Right to Work (NRTW) Legal Defense Foundation, “a nonprofit, charitable organization providing free legal aid to employees whose human or civil […]
First the California Science Center agreed to show the pro-Intelligent Design film “Darwin’s Dilemma” last October (along with a pro-Darwin film). Then they changed their minds when pressured by associates at the Smithsonian Institution. Their excuse was that a rental agreement had been violated by the film’s sponsor, the American Freedom Alliance (AFA). The AFA […]
In exchange for their votes to “invoke cloture” (i.e., stop debate and hold a final vote) on Obamacare, here is what some of the Democrat Senators got in return: Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-LA, asked for and got an extra $100 million in Medicaid money for her state. This has become known as “The Louisiana Purchase”. […]
So, what do we make of the concerns and accusations referred to at the beginning of this article? First of all, there is no intentional deceit going on with respect to celebrating the Nativity on December 25. We have seen that there are and historically have been some Christian writers & leaders who genuinely believe(d) […]
