–John McCain on the definition of marriage: “The family represents the foundation of Western Civilization and civil society and John McCain believes the institution of marriage is a union between one man and one woman. It is only this definition that sufficiently recognizes the vital and unique role played by mothers and fathers in the…

On September 28th, 31 pastors spoke from their pulpits in such a way that directly violated the IRS prohibition and threatened the loss of tax exempt status in order to challenge the IRS ruling that limits what pastors can say from the pulpit concerning their support or lack of support for a candidate. The threat…

Many argue that a person’s faith should have no bearing upon his politics; hence, a person’s personal faith should not influence his politics or influence whether a citizen votes for that candidate. This position seems, although admittedly quite neo-tolerant, either palpably uninformed or arrogantly dismissive of the Christian faith. First, if a person’s Christian faith…

The issue that divides is whether the legal right to have an abortion for reasons other than to save the life of the mother is right. What do the presidential candidates think? “Barack Obama understands that abortion is a divisive issue, and respects those who disagree with him. However, he has been a consistent champion…

Why does it seem so often that the federal government really works against the family with such things as taxes that are higher on married couples than if they were single, tax-funded education that undermines stable families, and divorce made easier than setting up a new television?

Colb said, “When a woman is pregnant, she is so intimately connected with…

As one would guess, the issue has been demagogued on both sides, and much of the reporting simply obfuscates the real issue. Obama is right that the bill does contain information that teaches children how to deal with potential sexual abuse. It says, “Course material and instruction shall teach pupils to not make unwanted physical…

The media probes things taught in Governor Palin’s former church, Wasilla Assembly of God, her present church, Wasilla Bible Church, and Obama’s former membership in Trinity United Church of Christ and the Reverend Wright. This probing begs for an answer to the question, “Is a candidate’s church membership or lack thereof relevant?” The answer is,…

I guess the experts were right, people’s morals really don’t affect their job, I mean as long as they are really good at what they do. For example, if a surgeon is an excellent surgeon, what difference does it make if he is an immoral person, or if a lawyer wins cases, who cares what…
