By Selwyn Duke There shall be no law “prohibiting the free exercise thereof,” says our First Amendment about religious freedom. State constitutions, including Ohio’s, also have strong protections for exercise of faith. Yet you wouldn’t know it, critics may say, judging from the behavior of University Heights, Ohio. Because according to that municipality’s city fathers,…

By Selwyn Duke “Education is useless without the Bible,” stated Noah Webster (1758-1843), known as the “Father of American Scholarship and Education.” “The Bible was America’s basic textbook in all fields,” he continued. “God’s Word, contained in the Bible, has furnished all necessary rules to direct our conduct.” Texas is now taking this to heart.…

By Selwyn Duke “Sometimes smart people have a hard time believing stuff that everybody else knows.” So said the condemned (and possessed) convict in the “religious” film Nefarious (2023) to his self-assured atheist psychiatrist. Charles Murray, the famed political scientist and successful author, can certainly relate to this. Quoting his wife on religion, he stated…

By Selwyn Duke Here’s a good question: What’s the point in sending the military to the Mideast to defend the West while also bringing the Mideast to the West? One man who may nod approvingly at this question is commentator Glenn Beck. After all, in 1999 he predicted blood in Manhattan’s streets within 10 years…

By Selwyn Duke “Plato is my friend,” ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle reputedly said, “but truth is a greater friend.” This was echoed two millennia later by English scientist Isaac Newton. “Plato is my friend, Aristotle is my friend,” he said, “but truth is a greater friend.” And today many might say “Plato is my friend,…

By Selwyn Duke “The dog is man’s best friend” the saying goes. Why, we humans argue about most everything, notes website History and Headlines. “If there is one thing most people agree on, though, it is dogs,” it continues. “How can you not love them?” Maybe one Nerdeen Kiswani can answer that question. After all, Kiswani,…

By Selwyn Duke Interestingly, the very first “leftist” revolution provided the very first case of a leftist revolution eating its own. That is, Maximilien Robespierre, the French Revolution’s main author, was opposed to the death penalty while seeking power. He then wantonly killed opponents upon attaining it — and finally began murdering former allies. (He…
