Does the Bible Command Conservatives to Accept Illegal Migration?

July 9, 2025

By Selwyn Duke With the Democrats controlling neither the presidency nor Congress and having largely failed to stop deportations via the courts, they’ve exhausted the political options for advancing their pro-illegal-migration agenda (at least for now). So they’re perhaps left grasping at straws. Enter the religious option. To wit: Many leftists are now citing the…
GOP Congresswoman Mistakes Sikh for Muslim; Her Critics Mistake U.S. for USSR Constitution

June 9, 2025

By Selwyn Duke A congresswoman created quite a stir Friday when she mistook a Sikh religious leader for a Muslim and then criticized his “Islamic” prayer before Congress. The condemnation this inspired came from both sides of the aisle, too, with many mocking her grasp of civics. Of course, it’s not unusual for Americans to…
Study: Most Americans Are “Unbiblical” Moral Relativists — and It Invites Tyranny

May 19, 2025

By Selwyn Duke Addressing a large group of arrivals in Hell, the Devil said, reassuringly, “You’ll find there’s no right or wrong here. Just what works for you.” That scene, presented on a 1977 New Yorker magazine cover, well epitomizes our time, a new study has found. In fact, the research shows, most Americans reject moral absolutes…
Church vs. State: Catholic Bishops Vow to Defy Blue-state “Reveal-confessions” Law

May 16, 2025

By Selwyn Duke “‘We must obey God rather than men.’” So said Seattle Archbishop Paul Etienne, quoting the Bible, while explaining why priests will go to prison before complying with a new Washington state law. The issue? The law requires clergymen to report acts of child abuse revealed during Confession. The problem? Among other things,…
150,000 Dead and Counting: Christians Killed for Their Faith EVERY Week

April 21, 2025

By Selwyn Duke The Roman arena, where Christians might be thrown to lions, is long gone. But though the tormentors and methods have changed, this doesn’t mean such persecution has ended. In fact, 100,000-150,000 Christians have been slaughtered worldwide by Muslims (often jihadists) during the last two decades. One of the worst killing fields is…
Christian Revival: Is (Once?) Woke Silicon Valley Coming to Jesus?

March 29, 2025

By Selwyn Duke When it was alleged in 2023 that the message “Jesus died so you could live” was labeled “hate speech” by Facebook, it perhaps was not surprising. Two years later, however, something else surely is. Christian code has entered Silicon Valley, we hear, and may be supplanting its notoriously secular programming. Apparently, man does…
Does Teaching Bible in Schools Make Kids More Moral and Mentally Healthy?

March 26, 2025

By Selwyn Duke While talking about “raising and training children” and “implanting” the proper “moral code,” a prominent politician had an interesting prescription. “The fundamental basis of this Nation’s law was given to Moses on the Mount,” he said. “The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teachings which we get from…
Bernie Sanders Rally Features Vulgar Anti-Christian Song Portraying God as Sexual Predator

March 11, 2025

By Selwyn Duke Conservative partisans online will sometimes, waxing pejorative, call our major liberal political party the “Demoncrats.” Many would assume they’re just speaking loosely, too. Yet Senator Bernie Sanders, the Vermont Independent who caucuses with the Democrats, has now given the critics more ammunition to make their case. That is, on Friday, Sanders held…
Without God, There is No TRUE Respect for Human Life

March 10, 2025

By Selwyn Duke Since my title is bound to inspire criticism that I’m a “God botherer,” I’ll preface what follows by stating that I wasn’t always the halo-adorned, floating-in-the-ether desert mystic (without the sand or heat) you behold today. I wasn’t raised with faith, and as a 12-year-old was an agnostic who’d say, “I’d never…
“Lemon” Called a Lemon: Will Religion Fully Return to the Public Square — Where it Belongs?

February 19, 2025

By Selwyn Duke The very first Congress, in 1789, was opened with Christian prayers. Congress continued opening with Christian prayers in following years, and it opens with prayers today — and they’re still usually Christian. Despite this, somehow, some way, somebody at some point got the idea that it was unconstitutional for a public-school football…
