  • Movie Review: Angels and Demons

    By Selwyn Duke This weekend I saw Angels & Demons, the controversial film directed by Ron Howard and based on Dan Brown’s book by the same name. The movie is a sequel to the equally controversial The Da Vinci Code, also directed by Howard and written by Brown. The film is as fanciful as it…

  • Critics Rebuke Pope Benedict XVI

    By Selwyn Duke Pope Benedict XVI gave a speech at Israel’s Yad Veshem Holocaust Memorial this past Monday, during which he paid tribute to the Jewish victims of Nazi genocide. His words were not well-received by all, however, as some Israeli critics expected an apology from Benedict and felt that he was “restrained” in his…

  • Spreading Christianity in Dar al-Islam

    By Selwyn Duke If our military is any indication, it just may be true that there are no atheists in a foxhole.

  • Notre Dame’s Betrayal of Faith

    By Selwyn Duke When John the Baptist said to King Herod, “It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife,” the price he paid was his head on a platter.  He had spoken Absolute Truth to power in a time when power was absolute.  It was the bravest of acts, the kind only…

  • The Sword of Islam, the Pen of the UN

    By Selwyn Duke If you know anything about “human rights commissions,” you know that never were there entities more  euphemistically named. They have proliferated throughout the Western world and have become tools of the thought police, and whatever rights they purport to protect, the right to speak Truth isn’t one of them. For evidence of…

  • Information Expert Claims to Have Scientific Proof of God's Existence http://youtube.com/v/seAHybCIBzkTo say you have scientific proof of God's existence is an amazing claim, I know, but this man, Perry Marshall, may just be right. You'll have to watch at least the first few parts of this to understand his thesis, but if any presentation was…

  • Defending the Pope

    By Selwyn Duke Pope Benedict XVI has found himself in a maelstrom of controversy over his lifting of the excommunication of Richard Williamson, an illegally-consecrated prelate who has downplayed the magnitude of the Holocaust.  The Pope has been scored by the media, certain Jewish groups and even some fellow Catholics, yet few truly understand what…
