Have You Forgotten The Most Important Lesson From 9-11?
Can you believe it's been 25 years since September 11, 2001. And now the Governor of NY wears a hijab and says "Allah willing" and the mayor of NYC is a Muslim from Uganda.

How Could The Lindsay Clancy Jury Be 11-1?
I assumed the 11 were for charging her with murder, but it turns out there was only 1 hero holding out (I can't wait to hear from him). How could this be? What's happening in Massachusetts that this was the jury pool? Well, there's nothing new under the sun. This has happened before, and it can get much worse.

Lindsay Clancy and The Problem Of Evil
Why are we unwilling to describe things or people as "evil"? We're so quick to go to brain chemistry or hormones or one's childhood to explain evil behavior, and it may be part of it, but evil also, exists in our world. If we don't acknowledge it, we'll only have more of it.

Trump Administration Defends American Scholar Overseas
Any other presidential administration would have ignored this injustice, but the Trump Administration defended this American scholar because it's the right thing to do. Dr. Cofnas is a controversial figure because he talks about IQ and racial differences. IQ is an interesting topic, but I believe Christians should focus on a different aspect of life.

Dolly Parton Loved Her Family and Her Home
I said the other day that we are a country made up of families who live in towns. That seems obvious, but we don't act like it. We act like we're a nation of individuals who live on the globe. Dolly was someone who loved her family and loved her town. That being said, her death should be a reminder of the message of Psalm 49.

The Only Difference Between Democrats and DSA
I only see two differences between the Democrats and DSA at the moment: speed and honesty. Where the Democrats want to slow-roll us to communism and are sneaky about it, DSA wants communism yesterday and they're blatant about it. I have an example of each, and then we'll talk about the importance of doing everything "God's Way".
