A friend sent me this story: Yesterday, on my way to lunch at Denny’s, I passed one of the homeless guys in that area, with a sign that read ‘Vote Obama, I need the money.’ Once in Denny’s my waiter had on a ‘Obama 08’ tee shirt. When the bill came, I decided not to […]
This is from Dennis Rainey of Family Life. I signed up for his emails. Not long after I graduated from the University of Arkansas, a female friend came to me for counsel. She was dating a young man who happened to be my best friend. And though she wanted to marry him, he was uncertain […]
I want to thank those in the gay community who are voting Yes on Prop 8. I know you are out there, thank you. Why would a homosexual agree that marriage should only be between a man and a woman? Tammy Bruce, a lesbian, pro-choice, feminist, gives logical reasons for supporting marriage as between a […]
Looking for more information to support Prop 8 without being called a right-wing fundamentalist religious bigot? Visit What Is Prop 8? Here is another piece by Greg Koukl found on Stand To Reason: “Marriage Is a Social Construction.†Gregory Koukl What is marriage? There are only two possible kinds of answers to this question: Either […]
I heard not one, but 2 people, on the same day, say: The only justification for Prop 8 is from the Bible. It’s a religious issue. To maintain separation of church and state, Prop 8 should not be supported. Prop 8 says – Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid and recognized […]
I finally got the book from the library that Elliot recommended. Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card. I must say, this author is pretty versatile. This book is very different from the one I read before. Overall, I liked both books. I know every scifi lover has read the Ender’s Game series. But since I […]
Written by Melinda: Senator Obama just said in the presidential debate that he wants to unite around common ground in preventing unwanted pregnancies. Frankly, I can never take that apparent olive branch seriously as long as the person offering it wants to expand federal funding of abortion, eliminate any existing restriction on abortion, and actually […]
California’s largest teacher’s union has given another $1 million to defeat a Nov. 4 ballot initiative that would ban same-sex marriage in the state. The contribution recorded Tuesday makes the California Teachers Association the largest institutional donor to the No on 8 campaign. CTA also gave $250,000 in August to Equality for All, a coalition […]
I work in the real estate and mortgage industry, and I agree with Ron Paul. It’s the artificial manipulation of the market that caused the current mortgage crisis. Note this: Homeowners with a bad loan are not innocent victims. Main Street doesn’t deserve bail out anymore than Wall Street. I had many homeowners asked me […]
We can’t have the cake and eat it too. Americans want to be prosperous, enjoy the luxuries of life, and complain to the energy company if their air conditioning is down for a few hours. But at the same time, they want to lower their energy usage. It just doesn’t work that way. A prime […]
I think I will take a break from reading Laurie King’s series of Mary Russell. (Thanks, K, for lending them to me.) I just finished reading A Letter of Mary by King. It took me over a month. I kept falling asleep! I like the mystery in King’s books, but what I don’t like are […]
(Read yesterday’s post first) Yesterday, I posted a scenario that Greg Koukl encountered with a Jewish man. The Jewish man said he believed in God, and was living a moral life. Those were the important things, it seemed to him—how one lived, not what one believed. What would you say to this Jewish man? Greg […]
This is from the Stand To Reason Ambassador Insights that are emailed to me by Greg Koukl: Earlier I wrote about everyday encounters we all have in restaurants. As an ambassador I’ve learned that encounters are the bread and butter of my witness for Christ. For example, while giving a talk at a local Barnes […]
While talking to the secretary at a school today, she said to me in passing, “I don’t want another 8 years of a Republican.” But who really is to blame? Gary Bauer wrote in his End of Day Report: In recent days, two Democrats have expressed regret that they did not take more seriously Republican […]
