Are Christians Obligated to “Support” Israel? – Part 2: History

Our first post looked at conservative Christians’ unquestioning support of Israel through the prism of the Founders. This time, we will look at some of the events that occurred during the establishment of the modern nation of Israel, and during its subsequent relationship with the United States.

Responses To The Boston Marathon Attacks: Good And Bad

At approximately 2:50 PM ET yesterday, two bombs were detonated near the finish line of the Boston Marathon.

Enough About Culture From The Political Junkies: Why We Fail

Let me tell you about Chris and Dana Loesch. But first let me tell you that I don’t want to write this as I’m spending most of my time livestreaming the production of my next album. I am perfectly happy being a singer/songwriter, a self-producer of what I think is some great music, and a [...]

Therefore, I am in no way supportive of terrorism on any side of any conflict. Also, there are plenty of outlets regurgitating the story that one side would have [...]

Hiding behind plants and recording someone’s movements isn’t weird at all. 1 of 3 – Two years ago @asherahresearch decided I was Tom Ryan, so she hid behind a plant & ‘secretly’ filmed him: youtube.com/watch?v=5R_KlJ… [...]
