On the Decline of Nations – And Their Possible Restoration

Jan 17, 2019

Hmm, there have likely been many thousands of books penned on the topic found in my overly-ambitious title. But sometimes thinking of a descriptive, accurate, yet catchy title can be the hardest part in writing an article! But there is

Pilgrims, Holland, America and Religious Freedom

Jan 15, 2019

I penned a piece yesterday on the very sad state of the Netherlands. It has really led the way in many respects with all the radical secular left agenda items, including being the first nation in the world to legalise

Nashville, Holland and Christian Persecution

Jan 14, 2019

One might think that the land of country music and the Grand Ole Opry has little to do with the land of Erasmus and Rembrandt. But there is in fact a connection, and even I have a bit of a

Yes, They Have Declared War On Children

Jan 9, 2019

It used to be that the best way to ascertain how civilised and compassionate a culture is was to see how they treated their most vulnerable – especially their own children. This had always been a good test of a

Family Wars, Tennis, and Culture Shift

Dec 23, 2018

How the times have changed. What a difference a few decades can make. Massive social and cultural change used to take a long time – often extending over centuries. But now we can observe and measure the speed at which

The Battle for Religious Freedom in Australia

Dec 17, 2018

Plenty of ink has already been spilled on the government response to the recently-released Ruddock report on religious freedom, but let me present a few more words on it. First, I will offer a number of brief considerations, and then

“Shout Your Slaves” Campaign

Dec 15, 2018

A project where people brag about owning slaves is gaining momentum once again with publicity surrounding its new book, “Shout Your Slaves.” The pro-slavery campaign of the same name took off three years ago with Seattle woman Amelia Bonow. Since

The War Against “Conversion Therapy”

Dec 11, 2018

The endgame of the militant homosexual lobby has always been this: the complete and final elimination of any and all opposition and criticism. Not only that, but the compulsory promotion and celebration of this lifestyle has also been actively sought

The UN Migration Pact

Dec 10, 2018

World leaders are meeting in Morocco as I write this, discussing a UN pact on migration. It is already a highly contentious issue, with many countries not going to the conference, and many not signing up for the pact. A

‘I Really Don’t Care For Your Tone Jesus’

Dec 6, 2018

People are going to hell, the church is being racked with heresies and overrun with sin, yet many Christians are worried only about the “tone” that some believers have as they seek to warn about all this. No wonder the

The Assault on Christianity: War Within and War Without

Dec 5, 2018

Things are getting worse by the day for the church in the West. Yes, much good is still happening, and many strong churches still exist. But most honest and discerning observers would see that overall the church is in a

No You Are NOT Being a Berean

Dec 4, 2018

I had an interesting discussion on the social media with a gal who claims to be a Christian but seems to have absolutely no problems with homosexuality. Someone had reposted my article about another Christian celeb selling short the gospel,

More On Worldly Christian Celebs (And Their Devotees)

Dec 3, 2018

Not unexpectedly, my article yesterday on another Christian celebrity who seems to know little about biblical truth and morality resulted in numerous folks going on the attack: not to critique her, but to jump all over me. As so often

No Jesus Did NOT Accept All People, All Faiths, and All Behaviours

Dec 2, 2018

It is common thinking among most non-Christians – and far too many Christians, alas – that Jesus somehow just accepted everyone without question, that he never had a harsh word to say about anyone, their beliefs, or their behaviours, and
