Stimulating Christian Conservative News & Commentary
The great question in churches today should be, “When are we going to wake up?” Christianity is persecuted around the world and illegal in many countries. In America we are also losing our right to practice our religion unimpeded, but we continue to sit in our comfortable pews on the day of worship and adapt […]
I was just talking to a friend at breakfast. We are frequently on opposite sides of the fence, but enjoy the banter. At one point today, while on a different subject, he said that that there are many ways to God. “Then do you reject Jesus’ words as something someone made up?” He answered that […]
Though his efforts did not succeed in banning traffic cameras from Iowa (“Two Decisions Made in Favor of Mobile Speed Cameras“), at least State Senator Brad Zaun of Urbandale had the courage to say that traffic cameras can increase revenue, but not necessarily safety. We’ve been down a similar path before, when cameras were added […]
“Orthodox” — “Conforming to what is accepted as right or true” (from the Merriam-Webster dictionary) Christian denominations, or even various divisions in each, like to claim (or even insist), that they are the only truly orthodox Christian group; the only “true” church.

According to Education Portal website, in 1940 only 20 percent of college students admitted to cheating. […]
“Muslims, Jews, and Chrisitans need to stand in unity.” This is a belief growing in popularity in America, (for some it is becoming a demand) espcially since one so-called Christian pastor advertised that he would burn the holy book of Islam. Is there a need for Christianity, Judaism, and Islam to stand in unity? Should they […]
“Be good for goodnes’ sake” was a phrase seen on buses and billboards earlier this year. The message is that you can be good without a base from which to decide what is “good.” Supposedly, there is an inborn morality within each of us that can do the right thing. One does not need God to […]
On my way to breakfast today I noticed one of those bumper stickers that has the symbols of many religions laid out in a line. The message is that all religions are equal and that trying to share your own faith with someone of another is verboten. That leaves Christians (and others as well) in […]

Can America be isolationist in her actions, business, or politics? Living as we do on a continent separated from much of the world by two oceans, it’s easy to think that it might be possible. There was opposition to both world wars based on the idea that getting involved in others’ problems was not our […]
There is a crisis at our southern border, how should we address the problem of illegal immigration?
