Psychiatry is a threat to civilization

[I wrote this prior to today's school massacre in Connecticut. We won't have any comment on that incident in this piece, but there are applications to be made re. all the pontificating an navel-gazing that will take place by people wasting oxygen trying to analyze what happened.]

More wisdom distinguishing a Biblical worldview from pantheistic state-ism. This is from The Cornwall Alliance, the organization whose material on Environmentalism we will be using for one of the sessions at our April 20th “Courageous Justice” Biblical worldview conference.

From: ChristianGovernance eletter – December 11, 2012

It is remarkable how illiterate today’s academics and professionals are. It should be obvious to Christians that professionalism is primarily a theological and ethical matter, not primarily a technical standing.

The Deal With China: So Good We’ll Never Do It Again: Rod Taylor

By Rod Taylor

Prime Minister Harper announced last Friday that cabinet had approved the takeover of Nexen by CNOOC (the China National Offshore Oil Corporation) for $15.1 billion as well as the $6 billion takeover of Progress Energy Resources Corp. by Malaysia’s state oil and gas company, Petronas. The two deals put a significant chunk of Canada’s oilsands development into the hands of two state-owned enterprises, one being essentially a business arm of Communist China. The late-Friday announcement was presented as “in Canada’s best interests” (of course) but the confident salesmanship often displayed by the PM was a bit low-key.

Christians today really seem to have difficulty dealing with the idea that we can, and should, handle different people differently. True, we are to love all men – even our enemies.
