In my first round of college at Southwest Baptist University, I took a January-term class called "Pain and Suffering." It was a philosophy class that filled the requirement in that area. The professor, a PhD -- and try as I might, I cannot recall his name -- carefully guided us along the Biblical teachings on … Continue reading Pain and Suffering

The Cross of Social Justice
Eric Shaffer of MRCTV has posted an excellent article which he called "For Whom Cancel Culture Tolls". It's short, to the point, and spot on. And if you think about it, it's a harbinger of the Left's liberal mania to come. Shaffer says "Cancel culture is a phenomenon in public life and a recent development … Continue reading The Cross of Social Justice
Don’t Conform
We are inundated daily with ads and commercials that project what the world sees as "perfect" or "right" or "complete" and especially politically correct. Signs and billboards, TV, movies, magazines, newspapers, online and offline, they are wherever we look in our daily life. It's the stuff we need to train ourselves to immediately ignore, look … Continue reading Don’t Conform
Good News
Hardly anything the mainstream media puts out is actually good news. Perhaps part of the problem is you can't trust ANY of their news to be actual facts.

The Beginning of Wisdom
I don't read Politico. I've always thought it was left-leaning. But here's a report I was directed to from another site, and in that report concerning recent abortion laws passed is this statement: "U.S. District Court Judge Carlton Reeves said the [Mississippi] state’s move “smacks of defiance” against a ruling he issued last year blocking … Continue reading The Beginning of Wisdom
Personhood
The Democrats and liberals are coming unglued by Alabama's abortion law. Several states, including Missouri, have passed or are about to pass more stringent abortion laws as well. Missouri's law banning abortions after a heartbeat is detected is going to the governor, who says he will sign it. Associate Justice Harry Blackmun wrote the majority … Continue reading Personhood
The (In)Equality Act
Last October Tony Perkin's warned us about things the Democrats would push if they won big in the 2018 election. As we know the Democrats now control the House. Here is part of what Tony penned October 26, 2018: (Emphasis added) "Anyone who thought the bathroom debate was out of control under Barack Obama hasn't … Continue reading The (In)Equality Act
