The Ongoing War on Christian Education

Oct 16, 2018

This is my third article on this topic in as many days. Why? Simple: the more I write on this, the more I encounter radicals who are hellbent on destroying Christian schools. But there is another reason sadly: so many

Clueless Christians and the Rainbow Trojan Horse

Oct 15, 2018

I must say, about the only thing I find more troubling and disturbing than all the constant assaults on the faith by its various enemies is when folks who claim to be believers basically run with the same ideas, beliefs

Our Sickening Sexual Sewer

Oct 6, 2018

The greater something is the more it will be abused, twisted and assaulted. The greatest thing there is is the living God, and he sure receives his fair share of abuse. So too all his good gifts. One of his

Adult Activists Are Grooming Our Vulnerable Children

Sep 6, 2018

What would you say if there was a 236 per cent increase in children who claimed they are actually trees, and wanted to get help to somehow physically transform themselves into trees? If you are at all sane, you would

Sep 2, 2018

Wilberforce Publications, 2018.

In this extremely valuable and superbly researched volume everything you wanted to know about social science research and the issue of homosexual parenting can be found. Research on this topic is relatively new, for the simple reason

Transgender and Trans-Truth

Aug 18, 2018

The prefix “trans” means to go beyond, or over, or across. Today the transgender movement is having a great run at going well beyond the truth. And this is primarily being done by not allowing any debate on the issue.

The Trans Assault on Everything

Aug 2, 2018

The trans madness is an attack on everyone and everything. By pretending that reality and biology do not exist, everyone is impacted by this lunacy and everything is thrown up in the air. And as activist groups and leftist governments

Libraries and Drag Queens: Activists Targeting Our Children

Jul 23, 2018

Homosexuals cannot reproduce – they can only recruit. Therefore, seeking to drag children into their sordid lifestyle has always been a big part of the way they operate. This has been going on for decades now, and is getting worse.

Difficult Bible Passages: Matthew 22:30

Jul 7, 2018

So what happens to marriage when believers get to heaven? The passage we are discussing here seems to tell us that it will become superfluous. That may be of concern to many, especially those who have had a close, loving

Our Mental and Moral Freefall

May 11, 2018

When the moral state of a nation heads downwards, so does its mental state. The two seem to be closely linked: as we become more and more immoral as a culture, we seem to become more and more stupid as

A Review of The New Normal. By Lisa Severine Nolland, et. al.

May 8, 2018

Wilberforce Publications, 2018.

What is new is not always normal, and some rather abnormal things are now being forced into attempted normalcy by activists and militants. The transgender agenda is a clear case in point. Up until a few years

“Safe Schools” and the War Against Children and Parents

Apr 19, 2018

Yesterday I wrote about the “Safe Schools” programs against the backdrop of the global sexual revolution sweeping the West. As I documented there, this is not happening by accident, but activist groups are deliberately and militantly pushing all this.

“Safe Schools” and the Sexual Agenda Big Picture

Apr 18, 2018

The controversies over the so-called Safe Schools programs in Australia are simply a reflection of a much bigger war. For many decades now activists have sought to target our children especially through the school system. Various sex education programs and

The Rape of a Culture: The Death of England

Mar 17, 2018

I have written often now on the deep decline of the UK, and now we may be safe to say it is just about officially dead. At the same time it is banning and detaining brave individuals who dare to

Transgenderism and Scripture

Feb 26, 2018

Perhaps 40 or 50 years ago I could have gotten away with writing a few articles on homosexuality from a biblical point of view. But as the militant movement spread, and its tentacles reached everywhere, including in the churches and

Christianity, Sexual Morality and the Public Square

Jan 7, 2018

There is a lot of confusion about issues of sexuality and ethics. Plenty of atheists and secularists seek to argue that things like chastity, abstinence, faithfulness in marriage, and so on, are just things Christians are into, and there is

A Review of Love Thy Body: Answering Hard Questions about Life and Sexuality. By Nancy Pearcey. Baker, 2018.

Dec 31, 2017

Life and death. Sex. Just a few of the massively contentious issues of our time. Whether speaking of abortion, eugenics, assisted suicide, pornography, homosexuality or transgenderism, these are the hard-core topics occupying the attention of so many today – both

The Sexual Revolution: A Readers’ Guide

Nov 27, 2017

I just penned a piece on the tumultuous counterculture, 50 years on. I mentioned that a major part of this social upheaval was the sexual revolution. What promised to bring liberation and happiness to many has instead brought slavery and

Weinstein and the Costs of the Sexual Revolution

Oct 30, 2017

Reading like a Who’s Who of Hollywood actresses, the number of women who have come forward and claimed that they were raped or sexually assaulted and harassed by film producer Harvey Weinstein is now well over 60 and still climbing.
