The Three Rs of Prophetic Warning - Old Time Stuff that still Works Today
 By Rev. Michael Bresciani

Due to the emphasis on the R sound (phoneme) in reading, writing and arithmetic early American pioneers and settlers coined the phrase “reading, riting and ritmetic.” It was repeated often in regards to getting a good education. Although spelled wrong the point was always transparent.

The Moral Argument For God
 By Dr. Frederick Meekins

The early 21st century stands as a period of profound moral confusion.  On the one hand, mothers and doctors are permitted to crack open the skulls and suck out the brains of nearly-born babies with government sanction under the banner of partial birth abortion.  Should these very same people hike into the woods and crack open a bald eagle egg, they could face serious prison time.

How Should Christians React?
 By Dave Macy

Not long ago as a radio talk host I had no trouble damning anything and everything that served to undermine the conservative foundation of America.  When I became a Christian, the struggle between out and out inflammatory and incendiary speech and a more tempered approach was an ongoing one.

Hate Crimes Laws Encourage Anti-Christian Bigotry

Anti-Christian bigotry is rife throughout the United Kingdom, and Christians are being targeted and persecuted for expressing their religious beliefs about homosexuality. The Racial and Religious Hatred Act passed in 2006 has given anti-Christian bigots the power to criminalize Christianity.

I believe that Christianity is the single best influence on mankind.

What George Bush Thought of Mohammed
 By Daniel Greenfield

By George Bush I don’t mean the 41st or 43rd Presidents of the United States, but the 19th century clergyman and historian George Bush, who was also the author of the first American biography of Mohammed. Bush was also the great-grand uncle of the 41st President, and the great-great grand uncle of the 43rd President. But his views on Islam were significantly different than those of his more Saudi friendly modern day relations.

Female Genital Mutilation, Islam and Leftist Silence
 By Editor

My recent NewsReal blog on Naomi Wolf and female genital mutilation (FGM) – also posted at Frontpagemag.com and Jihadwatch.org — has triggered a heated debate in the blogs’ comments sections on all three sites. The key arguments in these three sections personify some of the Left’s key tactics in its romance with tyranny and terror. It is crucial to shed light on these arguments in order to crystallize the maliciousness, dishonesty and heartlessness which lie at the center of the leftist agenda. It also helps strengthen our efforts to fight on behalf of tyranny’s victims, which, in this case, are the hundreds of thousands of young girls who face the barbarity of female genital mutilation yearly around the world.
