Here's to a merry day for everyone.
This is the night that God called out into the darkness, "I am here, for you!" While for me this is a day of great joy, some of our brothers and sisters face great darkness at this time, and if you know someone struggling I would encourage you, as God did on...
With all of the Roe v Wade hullabaloo, what I believe to be a pernicious superstition is rearing it's head. Namely that conceived human lives are in some way qualitatively lacking such that they cannot be called humans.
As I haven't gotten it so far, just steadfast denial that the clear and...

"According to Peter Ågren, who was heading the police operation this summer, one explanation as to why they did not talk more openly about this may be because the young men who were accused of harassing...
This thread is to discuss what effect Constantine had upon Christianity and the Christian faith.
I will lead off with my opinion. Constantine had a minimal effect upon both. His accepting of the Christian faith was a result of the growing Christian population and clout instead of a catalyst...
Liberals, or progressives, in the U.S. often say that society, via the government, is entitled to a higher percent of wages than is currently taken.

The missionaries work
can never be complete,
'til all have seen
the wondrous joy
of our great savior's feat.
Near and far they must go

In a 5-4 decision, the SCotUS ruled again that owning a handgun for defense is protected under the 2nd Amendment.
