The following update from China Aid details the sad story of the devastation wrought by China's forced abortion policy. "No one supports forced abortion..." --Reggie LittleJohn, Women's Rights Without Frontiers and ChinaAid WASHINGTON, D.C.--On Tuesday, November 10, 2009, Reggie Littlejohn and ChinaAid presented substantial firsthand body of evidence and research illustrating the abuses and...

Native Crying
Wow! This is astounding. A new research study demonstrates that babies cry in their own languages immediately after birth! This story may prove to be significant because of the persistent unwillingness to acknowledge the status of human babies in the womb. If babies come out crying in different languages, then they have acquired those languages in utero. If... Continue Reading →
Another ‘Honor’ Killing
No one assumes that every Muslim is violent. Few are asserting that the religion itself is inherently violent. Nevertheless, the appearance to those of us outside of Islam is that it breeds violence. The founder of the religion was himself sometimes violent, and the most vocal adherents of the religion are violent. The tragedy at... Continue Reading →
Global Environmental Abortion
More and more, I am starting to think the global warming crowd and the environmental crowd (mainstream version) are really interested most in propagating abortions. This short article from Mark Steyn makes the point clearly. By the way, global warming appears to be on its way out. More and more people are realizing global warming... Continue Reading →
After Terri Schiavo
We must stay alert to the reality that human life--all human life--is sacred; humans alone are created in the image of God. After the Terri Schiavo debacle, we must be ever more diligent to protect human beings who are handicapped, elderly, and diseased. Particularly, the future of healthcare appears to be pointing toward more government... Continue Reading →
Example of Political Importance
As Christians, we are told often to keep out of politics. I agree that the power, purpose, and glory of the gospel far exceeds political ideology. Nevertheless, this article from Victor Davis Hanson gets to a few root issues which demonstrate that politics matters. Political decisions have sweeping influence over the lives of millions. The...

Melancholy?
Some of you, like me, may be of a melancholy sort by natural disposition. Perhaps you are prone to emotional lulls and battle if not depression, then something sort of like it. I recommend watching this YouTube video. It has been put together by someone who uses the art of Van Gogh with the music... Continue Reading →
Pro-life Murder
James Pouillon was murdered, and no one knows why (though many are speculating). Mr. Pouillon was protesting abortion when he was murdered. He was well-known for his protests against abortion. We shall wait to learn more concerning the motive. Here is the statement from the National Right to Life concerning the murder.
Another Down Day for Life
Like the rest of the country, we wonder whether each day will be an up day for the stock market or a down day. If we were to look at indicators for life rather than indicators of wealth, we would have to conclude that yesterday was a down day. According to this article, a new... Continue Reading →
Confused Freedom
Mark Steyn, whom I have mentioned several times before, has a brilliant observation in this article from Maclean's. Granted, the article is a bit unseemly at times; so, you may not want to read it. However, he makes the point that we live in a milieu of sexual freedoms which have made us as "free"... Continue Reading →
Rifqa Update
In case you haven't been following the Rifqa Bary story, here is the latest report, which says that she has been granted a reprieve which will allow her to stay in Florida for now. This 17 year old convert to Christianity has caused quite a stir in the media. We all still await the outcome... Continue Reading →
Global Warming on Trial?
Chris Horner from Planet Gore reports on the recent U. S. Chamber of Commerce's call to hold a hearing on anthropogenic global warming (AGW). [Read: man-made global warming]. I have reported before on the dubious nature of the claims for man-made global warming. More and more information is showing that the last decade has begun... Continue Reading →
So, I’m Psycho
Wow, people wonder why I think psychology is an unreliable science. This story tells about a recent report from the APA which explains how those who are not urgently concerned about global warming are suffering from a psychological disorder. So, I suppose I'm psycho. Maybe I am, but, if so, it isn't because of failure to... Continue Reading →
What If They’re Wrong?
Maybe our title question is one we are not supposed to ask, but, what if Al Gore and the global warming prophets of doom are wrong? Wouldn't it mean that we could drive whatever cars we wanted? Wouldn't it mean that we could have more--rather than less--babies? Wouldn't it mean no more taxing of the... Continue Reading →
Be Unfruitful & Do Not Multiply?
There are consequences for “Population” Control. Fail to take seriously the command to be fruitful and multiply, and pay the long-term consequences. Liberal policies on population control fed into the abortion mindset and cost China her future, just as China was on the verge of challenging the world as the next superpower. Could it really be the... Continue Reading →
