I came across Miley Cyrus’s video “7 Things” yesterday. It would be considered tame today. And in terms of sexuality, it was. But it was a disgusting video. It dealt with the torment that girls feel when a guy they like breaks up with them. There are numerous lamentable things about the centrality our infantile culture places on romance when it comes to relationships. It is a leading contributor to this on-again, off-again approach to relationships that shreds people’s hearts. It’s incredibly destructive, foolish and sinful. But what is most offensive about Miley Cyrus’s video, showing how morally backward she is, is that her female props in the video, the girls who were acting out the loss of a boyfriend and the emotional turmoil, all looked like pre-teens.

Christians in Captivity
By Lee Duigon
According to a recent editorial in The Denver Post, “artists do have a right to offend people of faith.”
This was in reference to an exhibit at the Loveland Museum. As usual, the “art” was paid for with the tax dollars of Christians. As usual, the “artist” abused and demeaned Our Lord Jesus Christ – in what way, we prefer not to mention.

Creating the Ideal Society
By Jim Enos, CHP Canada, Hamilton-Mountain EDA
Click here for a 5-minute video which talks about English becoming the international language and China being the largest English-speaking country in the world.
Meanwhile, in Canada, Quebec wants taxpayer funds from English-speakers for their nostalgic agenda to save a language that the people aren’t freelypreserving themselves because the parents want their children to be able to earn a living in the real world. How can a modern, 21st Century country continue to fund Official Bilingualism, robbing from English-speaking Peter to pay French-speaking Paul? The moral contortions required to justify such government policy are embarassing.

By Tim Bloedow
Parents, I hope you aren’t using the TV as a babysitter. I hope you aren’t defaulting to the regulators to determine what’s suitable viewing for your children.
