Modern education theory is simply a rationalization that is used to avoid dealing with our real problems By Selwyn Duke We’ve all heard about that proverbial portly dieter, the person who puts no-cal sweetener in his coffee and then uses it to wash down a piece of chocolate cake. It’s an eye-rolling image,…

A commentator wonders why pro-choice men aren’t as numerous or as vocal as their pro-life counterparts. But the answer is so simple that only a pro-choice pundit could miss it. By Selwyn Duke Sometimes you just have to be thankful for your enemies. Case in point: The maelstrom surrounding the pro-life Super Bowl ad starring…

By Selwyn Duke Many of us have heard about Geert Wilders, the Dutch parliamentarian currently on trial in Holland because he criticized Islam.

By Selwyn Duke Of all the responses to the devastation in Haiti, the most copy-worthy is televangelist Pat Robertson’s claim that the earthquake was divine retribution. In making his case, he told a story about how Haitian leaders long ago made a pact with Satan, promising to serve him if he would help vanquish their…

By Selwyn Duke It sounds like a dark story from the days of ancient pagan rituals: A person tears open a woman’s womb while she’s still alive and takes her baby from it. I wrote about such a crime in August of last year, but, tragically, it was no isolated event. And now a different…
