The new beacon of liberty: KFC’s Double Down

The new beacon of liberty: KFC’s Double Down
By Lorne Gunter

Go KFC! Your Double Down sandwich has the health police in a tizzy. Those preachy, prancing, eat-your-peas pokenoses can’t decide whether to tax you, shield their children’s eyes from you or send you to reeducation camp – or perhaps all three at once.

The death of humanist science…

October 30, 2010

The positive utopias of the good society in literature were utopias of centrally planned states.  No one has written them in a century.  The dystopias are also centrally planned states.  They reflect modern men’s declining faith in the healing powers of science as implemented by the state (emphasis added).

“Hate killings” – What a joke?

October 30, 2010

Do you want to know how pathetic the concept of hate is when it comes to jurisprudence? So many leftists blather on about how some crimes need to be treated as more serious if there is evidence that they were committed out of “hatred” for some designated – politically defined – group of people. It might be race or “sexual orientation” or some other category.

The Power of Giving a Book
By Joel McDurmon

It all started with one book. When Bojidar’s missionary pastor left his Bulgarian town, all he left behind was a couple audio tapes and a copy of one book, Ken Gentry’s He Shall Have Dominion. Ken’s book is still, perhaps, the best one-stop exposition of the postmillennial, optimistic, dominion-oriented biblical worldview available. It has changed many lives, including Bojidar’s. After this, he wanted to hear more about optimism and biblical law.

By Tim Ross

A Christian couple who were banned from becoming foster parents because they believed homosexuality was unacceptable are taking their case to the High Court.

Eunice and Owen Johns will argue that Christians are being forced to live “in the closet” as the state’s interpretation of equality law favours homosexuals’ rights over religious freedom.

Denver Judge Rules In Favor of National Day of Prayer

Secularists were dealt a decisive blow on Thursday when a Denver judge ruled that a gubernatorial proclamation recognizing the Day of Prayer was not unconstitutional. District Judge R. Michael Mullins ruled the Gov. John Ritter did not violate the state constitution’s religious freedom clause. The Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF), which has won a similar district-level lawsuit aimed at the National Day of Prayer, said it would appeal Mullins’ decision.

Playing with justice or legitimate homosexual case?

October 30, 2010

The federal government is correct about the problem with reliable evidence as far back as this case’s origins. Unless they stalled and delayed, there should be no case. That’s why a Biblical principle of justice is a speedy trial, and one of the reasons why you see justice executed at a local level instead of a national level in the Bible.
