For more than 30 years, the intensely emotional debate over abortion has raged in our country with little progress toward a resolution. Arguments on both sides have been based on these intense emotions. While these justifications are important because we are emotional creatures…
One of the best arguments against Christianity is the problem of evil. If God is all good, he would will that there be no evil in the world. If he is all powerful, then he would be able to do whatever he wills. Yet, evil exists in our world. Thus God is either not benevolent or not omnipotent…
Lately, I have been thinking of my future career as a scientist in relation to my desire to be a devout Christian. In modernist thought, these two are incompatible. However, I find that science only gives further credence to my faith. For centuries, Western science has been explaining away superstitious beliefs…
People create governments to provide them with stability and safety. A government creates laws to ensure the continued existence and development of the society of people. But when a nation begins to redefine the essential nature of society – that nation is at risk of social destabilization…
Several times since 1973, members of Congress have attempted to pass laws that would give unrestricted access to abortion. The most recent version, the Freedom of Choice Act, will be introduced in the next congressional session. The act – consisting of about 400 words of substantial legislation – is short…
Christ as the word of God and light to the world is the source of all truth. That truth can be found in nature, experience and through divine revelation. As a Christian, in my search for the fullness of Christ and thus truth, I believe it is my job to search him out wherever and whenever he reveals himself…
Halloween, or All Hallows Eve, originated as a vigil for the celebration of All Saints Day on Nov. 1. However, many of the familiar customs and traditions come from the pagan Celtic holiday Samhain and the Roman feast of Lemures. Before the Roman Empire was Christianized…
There is a common misunderstanding among people today that the slavery we’re familiar with, the oppressive racial system we learned about in our American history textbooks, is the same type of slavery mentioned in the Bible. It is not. This misunderstanding hinges on the context of the Bible…
The pure materialist atheism that is supported by such prominent atheists as Richard Dawkins, author of “The God Delusion” and developer of the theory of memes, lacks any morality and justifies the world’s worst atrocities. Often you may hear Dawkins and others telling people what they should and shouldn’t do…
Washingtonians will soon face a grave decision. We will have to decide whether to treat the weakest and most vulnerable elements of our society with dignity, or discard them like so much refuse. Soon, Initiative 1000 will be on the state ballot and people will decide if it should be legal for a doctor to prescribe medication that would allow a person with only six months to live to commit suicide…
There are many reasons to believe in God. It must be noted that no argument can unequivocally prove or disprove the existence of God. But this is an important point, because he has given us freedom to believe or not. God didn’t create a world of one-dimensional puppets who are forced to love him…
Sex is a topic of great discussion and fascination in the modern world. Secularism tries to defile and dehumanize a pure, sacred thing, but sex is a holy part of human life. After the sexual revolution of the 60s and 70s, Americans began exploring and experimenting with their sexuality…
