Thomas Sowell | April 15, 2014 (townhall.com) – The “war on women” political slogan is in fact a war against common sense. It is a statistical fraud when Barack Obama and other politicians say that women earn only 77 percent of what men earn — and that this is because
Unless you unequivocally understand the present immoral and cultural decadence that is devastating America’s original foundation and the lasting legacy it is leaving to your family and future generations, this Easter Week will be another meaningless celebration, no different than what pagans have done for thousands of years with deadly cultural consequences.
Evidence proves the horrific persecution Christians are suffering in countries where they are a minority against the dominant religion of a nation or its systems where secular humanism is supreme. Also totally understandable and evident is the marginalization and desire to eliminate these Christians, which threaten those systems of life.

Do as I ask not as I do, is the real problem with the overwhelming majority of our society. When we demand that others do what is right we must first look in the mirror before we do the demanding.
The Patriot Post | March 24, 2014 Wisconsin Republican Gov. Scott Walker signed into law today a $541 million tax cut returning $406 million to state technical colleges to reduce their property taxes.

This is a standard objection that critics frequently lodge against the Biblical record of the Great Flood. They like to ridicule the thought of Noah setting off on trapping expeditions to Alaska and Australia, and they especially seem to relish the thought of the insuperable difficulties encountered by Noah’s family in feeding and cleaning up after the animals during their year in the ark! The fact that conservative Christian scholars have answered these objections many times in the past is not known to religious “liberals,” of course, since they almost never read books written by “conservatives.”
At the U.S. Air Force Academy, jets aren’t the only thing taking off. So is a campus-wide rebellion against the forces of political correctness. Frustrated by the school’s decision to scrub a Bible verse from one of the dorm whiteboards, cadets decided to take matters into their own hands.
I have visited nations in different continents that were shattered by their civil wars. I have also been to a country during an actual war with other nations. The kind of devastation, death and suffering it brings is horrendous and world wars only multiply this desolation.
When analyzing some governments, it becomes easy to see why they are failures. Venezuela is one that comes to mind. Argentina is more challenging to analyze, but its recent turn to the left and a more authoritarian government has once again brought the economy near collapse. Detroit is the shining example of a failed government within the Unites States. The question is: will Los Angeles become the next government to crumble?
