Why does Denmark own Greenland? (3 min)
Lots of talk going on about Greenland as of late. Here’s a quick primer on how Greenland came to be Danish…
Samuel Sey: Is my “interracial” marriage against God’s design?
Some are trying to find truth by reacting off liars on the Left. So, for example, when the woke Left says headship is a wrong that must be righted, the response from some is, not to go to God’s Word, but to fall off the other side of the horse committing an equal and opposite sin – they become domineering husbands who pretend their wives are children. And this interracial question seems to be a weird response to the Left’s elevation of blacks as victims who must always be deferred to. In reaction, some are turning into whites-only racists, and worse yet, doing so while calling themselves Christians.
The lesson, then, is to go to God, rather than react. And anyone who went to God’s Word would find that there is no such thing as different races. We are all children of the same parents, Adam and Eve. So “interracial” marriage isn’t wrong because it isn’t even possible.
Does Tylenol cause autism?
Trump made that claim some months back and while some seem to think the surest source of truth is simply to run with the very opposite of what the US president has tweeted, no one is that reliably wrong. But a new study does conclude he was indeed wrong this time.
Court rules Trudeau was wrong to use the Emergency Measures Act against the truckers
This is the second legal loss in a row for the former PM.
Canada’s killing-as-care regime finally got this mother’s son
A young man who was previously saved from his approved euthanasia plans 4 years ago wasn’t as fortunate this time. An abortionist who will kill adults too put him to death in December… legally it seems, even before Parliament has approved killing the mentally ill.
If murder is medicine, then what argument can be had for withholding this medicine? The only counter to such thinking is telling the Christian truth that our lives are not our own. No other hedge or restriction or speed bump will work. We need the full Gospel truth delivered to people who are dying for want of it.
Choice42 with a brutal reality we’ve all forgotten
WARNING: This is animated, so some of the brutality is muted. But the sheer horror of what it recounts might be too much for some, so viewers beware… and don’t watch this with your younger kids around.
In the lead up to the March for Life, the Trump administration announced they’d stop using the remains of aborted children for medical research. Many vaccines have been developed using the remains of fetuses, so this is a welcome move.
But is it really all that problematic if we use vaccines so developed? Many of the remains used were from children murdered decades ago, as this video below highlights. So should we still be concerned? There are medical procedures in use today that were developed via torturous Nazi experimentation but does the unethical means by which they were discovered mean we can’t use them? One example is treatments for hypothermia, derived by Nazis deliberately freezing their victims before testing out various ways of treating them. Can we today not use the best means of treating hypothermia just because a Nazi discovered it via immoral means?
Many and maybe most would say, yes we can still make use of the Nazi research, even with how wickedly it was produced. But the difference between using vaccines derived from butchered unborn children and using research derived from Nazi torture is that no one today is trying to justify further Nazi torture. No one is saying, “The Nazi research methods worked, so we should do more of it.” But medical experimentation on embryos is ongoing, and used as a means of appeasing parents who would otherwise have to go to the expense of freezing their “extra” embryos or the guilt of “disposing” of them. Instead they can “donate” them to scientific research. The Nazi Holocaust is over and recognized for the evil it was. The unborn holocaust continues, and medical research on the unborn is just one more justification for it.
So how do we address the moral dilemma parents face when it comes time to vaccinate our children? I don’t have a great answer. I can share the unsatisfactory approach we used – we sought out vaccines that weren’t derived from fetal remains. And when that wasn’t possible – there isn’t much demand, so there isn’t much supply – we did use the tainted vaccines, but then also sought to advance the production of fetal-free vaccines by making a donation to a group doing that work.
