Well, as of last week, it’s official. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has dissolved (at least for now) its “disinformation board.” Some critics have called this the “Ministry of Truth,” as in George Orwell’s classic novel about a dystopian, totalitarian future, 1984. The agency was to be engaged in “countering disinformation that threatens the […]

JEFFERSON AND SLAVERY by Jerry Newcombe, D.Min. Looking back at  17th, 18th and 19th century American slavery, there is no justification from a moral and biblical perspective for “the peculiar institution.” Sadly, Thomas Jefferson was caught up in it, even though as a younger man, he did make some attempts to fight it. In 1770, Jefferson’s religious […]

The God Factor is the key to America’s success. But alas that lesson is often forgotten (or was never learned in the first place). On July 4, 1776, our founding fathers voted to affirm a revolutionary document—the Declaration of Independence. Since that time to the present, there have been numerous other political revolutions. Most have […]

It would seem that in our day, American history is being dismantled one statue at a time. Just the other week, New York City removed a statue of Theodore Roosevelt. NBC notes: “The bronze sculpture of Roosevelt on horseback with Native American and African figures depicted subjugation and racial inferiority, the American Museum of Natural […]

The founding fathers were very aware of the Exodus story in the Bible, where God through Moses led His people out of bondage into freedom. Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson even suggested that perhaps the American seal could show the parting of the Red Sea in the Exodus since this was an apt symbol of […]

Every four years, with a new inaugural address from the president of the United States, it is remarkable how every president has mentioned God in one way or another. And yet all the usual suspects from the militant atheist crowd have been trying to block the Bible from being used—a tradition that began with President […]

“Liberal censorship” is technically an oxymoron. But today liberal censorship is a common reality. Where once free speech reigned on college campuses and in other secular institutions (or at least it was so thought), today you have the totalitarianism of political correctness. Say the wrong thing, and you may be fired. Dissenting Justice Samuel Alito […]

Should being an active Christian bar you from public service? Yes, say many pundits today. It would seem that the left wants to impose a religious test to bar anyone who truly believes in Jesus from serving in government. For example, in the fall of 2020, the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg left a […]

There is a war on American history. We have seen radical groups take to the streets and topple historical statues. For example, in the most recent Thanksgiving last year, many mobs defaced and brought down historical statues. Tyler O’Neil of PJ Media (11/28/20) describes the extent of this vandalism, which included the spray-painting of anti-Thanksgiving […]

The contentiousness of the recent elections underscores how there are conflicting visions of what our nation should be. Are we a brave new world in a secular mold or are we endowed by our Creator with inalienable rights? Secularists have tried to change America into a godless void. And they have recruited a caricature of […]
