Israel: Fight like your forefathers
As a Christian, I am inextricably joined at the hip with my Israeli brothers, but like many lovers of Israel, I am dismayed as I witness them possess such a magnificent army, yet because of reliance on secular humanist presuppositions, instead of exacting a decisive blow to Hamas, their politicians are mired in liberalism, socialism and egalitarianism. For now, Israel seems content to allow hundreds of billions of dollars worth of military equipment to remain idle, encamped on the border of Gaza. This is an untenable situation for me.

Deepak Chopra Peddles Metaphysical Swill
When asked what he thought the meaning of enlightenment was, Chopra responded, “The meaning here is that your real self is not a person, that there is no such thing as a separate self, that a person doesn’t really exist…So enlightenment here means transcendence to that level of existence where the personal self becomes the universal self.”

Negotiating Our Way Out of a Mess
History tells us that Roosevelt struggled mightily to overcome the Depression, but it wasn’t until World War II provided a full-employment opportunity that he was able to turn the nation’s economy around and help defeat two of the most vicious totalitarian threats to humanity in the modern era.

The Plain Truth about Glorious Carbon Dioxide
Okay, children, let’s all sit up straight at our desks. We are going to begin 2009 with a lesson about carbon dioxide (CO2).
Why do we need to know about CO2? Because the President-elect, several of his choices for environmental and energy agencies, the Supreme Court and much of the U.S. Congress has no idea what they are talking about and, worse, want to pass legislation and regulations that will further bankrupt the United States of America.
Do I have your attention now?

The canary in the mine
In the old days, I am told, coal miners would lower a cage with a tiny canary into a mine to determine if the levels of methane, carbon monoxide or other noxious gases were present. The logic was as long as that canary kept on singing in the mine, the miners knew that their air supply was safe; however, when the singing stopped, it was time to leave that site immediately, for death would quickly follow.

America’s Ignorance Is Now A Threat To The World!
No matter how the fighting between Israel and Hamas turns out in the end, Hamas WILL claim victory. The process for announcing their “win” is already set up just waiting for the withdrawal of Israeli units from Gaza. Shortly after the Israeli forces turn toward home, watch for a press conference to be called by Hamas and the International media will flock to their propaganda fest with willing hearts and willing pens to write up the story of how Hamas bested the mighty Middle Eastern “Bully”… Israel.

While the Internet was rocked by news that President-elect Barack Obama has chosen Dr. Sanjay Gupta, the neurosurgeon and correspondent for CNN and CBS, to be U.S. Surgeon General (1), an equally news worthy appointment slipped through the cracks and received virtually no reportage whatsoever.
Every year, at about this time, many Americans make what are commonly known as New Year’s resolutions. It is no surprise to any of us mere mortals that most of these resolutions may not last beyond the time it takes to enunciate them. But I think that there are a couple that all of us in the pro-life community could adopt with gusto and keep, regardless of the political atmosphere, cultural meltdown or increasing lack of belief in God. 
Is the millennial male drinking too much soy milk, full of estrogen, because it’s hip, tricked into believing it’s better for the environment, or because some health guru told them to? Does it even matter? I sense Paula Cole’s disappointment in Cowboys after Brokeback Mountain. What became of real men? Did the Y2K bug trick computers to redefine men and the calendar bug only a deception as software transformed the John Waynes and the Marlboro men of the United States into femme metrosexuals?
It was shocking when I saw it; I knew it couldn’t possibly be true, and I prayed it was a New Year’s Eve joke! But indeed, it was factually correct and my heart sank. What in the world could be done? Well, here is the story and an invitation to you to get active and do something now.
Our country is facing a spiritual crossroads that could spell the end of traditional marriage and family life. Christianity is being encroached upon by those within the gay community. Many of these people are “part and parcel” of the same crowd who wish to remove God from the public arena because our Creator has plenty to say about their “chosen lifestyle.” If their lifestyle were not by choice, God would not call homosexuality a sin. “God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind” (Numbers 23:19).
While there are many things about George W. Bush that I disagree with, they all relate to his FAILURE to BE a CONSERVATIVE!!
No one who studies Planned Parenthood’s tactics would be surprised by a recent “news” item that claims that, according to a “large federal survey,” teens who pledge to remain virgins until marriage or promise to save themselves for marriage are just as likely to have sex as those who don’t make take pledges or make promises. 
You must demand that politicians, Islamic apologists, and paid-for media do not abuse freedom by lying about Islam. When these people portray Islam as a religion of peace, they are lying through their teeth. Just take a quick look at Islam’s history as well as what is happening today in the Islamic lands. Islam is not a religion of peace and it has never been. Islam is violent, oppressive, racist, and irrational at its very core. 
If I had the power, there are any number of people from whom or about whom I would not want to hear, see, or read anything in 2009. Here’s a short list!
Even before the smoke had cleared from the first bombs dropped many of us knew whom the world wide press would make the bad guys. The Israelis. It never fails. The world’s hatred of the Jews is just as vehement, just as rabid, as it was when Hitler was murdering six million of them in his gas chambers and concentration camps in Europe in the 1930’s and 1940’s. Frankly, I am not sure that given a chance to do it again, much of the world would stand by, again, and allow it to happen.
The new Gallup poll that found that among those queried, 67 percent “think religion is losing its influence on U.S. life.” The USA Today reporter compared this percentage to that of a Gallup poll conducted three years ago, when it appeared that Americans “were nearly evenly split on the question.” But you see, the wrong question was asked to begin with, and that is what is causing me not a little concern. 
The Israeli Air Force is reported to have knocked out some 40, or more, Hamas targets in five minutes as the current Jewish/Muslim war kicks off in Gaza. The devastating opening to this war has been described as the Israeli version of “Shock and Awe”. Planning, (we learned very recently) for this raid was initiated at least six months ago by the Israeli military. The decision that “Operation Cast Lead” was “a go” for Saturday morning was, in fact, made Friday morning only one day before the bombs began to rain down on Hamas.
As of November 30, 2008 the number of U.S. dead was 4,205. The amount of money the U.S. has poured into Iraq as the result of the invasion exceeds $500 billion. Also at the end of November, the Iraqi parliament voted on an agreement that would have the bulk of the U.S. military depart by 2011. The agreement, though, leaves plenty of wiggle room for Iraqis to request U.S. military to stay on.
One can hardly open a newspaper these days without seeing an article by a member of the MsM bemoaning the lack of bipartisanship in the Congress. Warning flares should go off in your consciousness as soon as you see the title of such an article. 
In a 2007 study published in Nature, titled, “Egalitarian Motives in Humans,” a modern and disturbing view of egalitarianism demonstrated by American college students showed that highly educated people are willing to pay, even collude with one another to reduce inequality. “When subjects were placed into groups and given random amounts of income, they spent their own money to reduce the incomes of the highest earners and increase the incomes of the lowest earners,” the authors concluded.
