  • Putting Hollywood in the Hallowed

    By Selwyn Duke First there were “inclusive language” Bibles, which extended a bizarre form of chivalry to feminists with lexical peculiarities such as “Our Mother/Father who art in Heaven.” Now, there is something equally bizarre: a Bible illustrated with pictures of celebrities who supposedly exemplify goodness and compassion. Writes Beliefnet.com: Last year, a Swedish ad…

  • Home Bible Study Threatened in Bonito, Calif.

    By Selwyn Duke If the Chinese need any help with their crackdown on the Falun Gong religious group, perhaps they should try to recruit San Diego County bureaucrats.

  • Schooling in the Third Millennium: Bible Out, Sodom In

    By Selwyn Duke If anyone needs more evidence as to how we live in a topsy-turvy age of moral turpitude, two recent news stories provide 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. The armed forces have long seemed to be an arena wherein faith runs strong, and while this is laudable, it also creates problems with today’s secular civilian authorities and top brass. One example…

  • The Lack-of-Purpose Driven Life: Rick Warren’s Stance on Faux Marriage

    By Selwyn Duke Many think California pastor and author of The Purpose Driven Life Rick Warren to be a purveyor of designer religion. Now these critics have been given some more ammunition in the form of an interview the mega-church mogul gave to CNN’s Larry King. At issue are comments Warren made in which he…
