Canada about to murder its 100,000th citizen via MAiD

When you become callous about life, and see ending it as compassionate, then how can you object when death becomes popular? And why wouldn't you want "same day delivery"? And why wouldn't you offer "compassion" to newborns too?

You can only object if you have some basis for morality and human worth. And God is the only basis for that. So, Church, we need to object to evil, but never stop at that – we must witness to the God Who gives us clarity!

How separate should Church and State be?

ARPA Canada offers up three Reformed thinkers on the question. A couple of things they all agreed on is that the government is under God's reign even when it doesn't recognize Him, and the Church is to glorify Him in the public realm even when God is not welcomed there.

Trump gets the US to step back some on global governance

The US government recently cut their involvement with 66 international organizations. I can't attest to how bad or good all 66 were, but the United Nations Population Fund and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change were among the biggest recipients of US funds. The first pushed a "population bomb" narrative that treated children as a curse on the planet, and not the blessing that God says they are (Ps. 127:3, Prov. 17:6), and the second did much the same, though more as a carbon-footprint curse.

In a related note, RP's March selection for our Bucket List Book Club – which you can join here! – is Necessary Endings, about how sometimes the best way forward is by halting what just isn't working.

Don't bet on it

Sports gambling isn't harmless fun for anyone involved.

Many lose big - one study found "nearly 15% of bettors have used personal loans to fund wagers, while 12% have turned to high-interest payday loans."

And if you win? That might be worse yet. Your money comes directly from someone else's misery. You only win by someone else losing – it is a zero sum game.  That's why God wants us to have no part of gambling. We are to be productive – to be fruitful and multiply (Gen. 1:28) – creating wealth, and not simply "redistributing" the wealth of poor idiots into our own pockets.

(Albert Mohler recently weighed in on sports gambling and the newest gambling venture, prediction markets.)

The bright sadness of Ben Sasse

After a pancreatic cancer diagnosis, a US senator has used his trial and his fame as a way of spreading the Gospel, including podcast conversations with Michael Horton and Uncommon Knowledge's Peter Robinson.

First victim of autonomous AI harassment?

Scott Shambaugh didn't want AI writing for his outfit... and one autonomous AI agent didn't like it and, without any human instructions to do so, wrote and posted an article to the 'Net attacking Shambaugh.
