State or parents: whose child is it? (2 min)

The case made for home school here is one Christians – even those of us with our own Christian schools – can and should get behind: God made parents responsible for our children’s educational, social, and moral upbringing, not the government (Eph. 6:4, Prov. 1:8-9, Heb 12:7-11, Prov. 22:6, Deut. 6:6-9).

The “Distant Starlight Problem”: 3 answers

If Creation is only thousands of years old, how come we can see light from stars millions of light-years away? This is one of the questions the creationists at Creation Ministries International get asked, and here’s a three-pronged answer.

National Review‘s publisher is “married” to his husband 

One of the most influential conservative magazines in the US has thrown in the towel on same-sex “marriage” and no wonder, considering the publisher is, himself, in such an arrangement. But they’re far from the only purportedly “conservative” media group to embrace the LGBT sexual agenda. The Daily Wire’s Spencer Klavan is “engaged” to a man. Glenn Beck’s BlazeTV network features the Rubin Report, where host Dave Rubin announced that he and his “husband” were going to have two children via surrogates. In Canada, Rebel News is using the wrong pronouns for men in dresses. What we’re seeing here is that if a media organization doesn’t explicitly stand on God’s Word, then they will stumble when the culture brings pressure to bear.

Wikipedia's bias (8 min) One of Wikipedia's founders now describes it as propaganda for the leftwing. The passive husband A passive husband can come off as likable enough, because he isn't actively working at anything bad. He may even be quite the hard worker outside the home. He's just checking out when he gets home A sentence to bring down abortion (10-min read) We are amazed by stories of individuals who risked their lives to do what is right. But more remarkable still is that a whole village made the same decision to, en masse, to save Jews? What motivated them? How can they inspire us? Free markets bring shalom The least economically free countries have an infant mortality rates almost seven times that of the most free. While Christians know that material prosperity isn't an end in itself, we also know longer life, and happy babies are blessings worth sharing, and we can do so by encouraging economic freedom. New York Times proposing better rules for sex? As a recent NYT article highlighted, some in the world "are realizing how sex without restrictions leads to personal and social chaos. ....Our job is to take it one step deeper, and to point with our words and our lives to a better way." The amazing flying frog...and its evolutionary critics (2 min) In the video clip below, a BBC naturalist highlights just how amazing the Wallace Flying Frog is... but then he criticizes it as badly designed for only being able to glide, and not fly. This type of fault-finding is common among evolutionists, and it blinds them to the amazing reality right in front of them. As the linked creationist article above highlights – and this evolutionist also concedes – this little frog is brilliantly equipped for the treetop environment it inhabits.
