  • Culture of death

    When I watch people say incredibly threatening things to a dentist who hunts a lion… (which, by the way, would be terroristic threats in some other situations)… and then say NOTHING when videos are shown of Planned Parenthood doctors talking of selling off body parts (or worse, defending the actions as “legal”)… and when I realize that many of the…

  • Imagine this…

    Imagine these signs outside a Planned Parenthood clinic and how the media would react. Instead, these signs are outside the office of a Bloomington, MN dentist who probably poached a lion in Africa months ago. Today, Planned Parenthood gives thanks for the Minnesota dentist taking the spotlight further off of their own atrocities.

  • The numbness of our culture

    This is not a simple, run of the mill, 1980s pro-life argument I am trying to make.

  • Hitch your wagon to a political movement…

    Dear friends, we have lost our way. To the right… to the left… we have lost our way.

  • The gods of our culture

    NT Wright and Richard Foster both nailed it long ago. Our three biggest gods are money, sex, and power. Try to say something against those three behemoths, and see how quick you get knocked back. It’s not a cultural war. It’s just war. Planned Parenthood doesn’t represent the “rights of women.” They represent the power of greed and sex. The…

  • Being pro-life

    …days like this really get my blood boiling when it comes to my pro-life ethic.

  • Hobby Lobby and Shrill Responses

    The Supreme Court ruled yesterday that Hobby Lobby and other “Christian owned” for-profit businesses did not have to pay for certain kinds of contraception that violated the owners basic religious belief that those were “potential abortifacients due to the way they can prevent implantation of a fertilized egg in a mother’s womb.” There are shrill responses. We’re now headed back…

  • How to spot a cultural stronghold

    1. Pick a hot button topic: Abortion, gay rights, gun control. 2. Make a position on it concerning funding, backing, etc. 3. Watch for vitriolic responses. CAUTION: If the vitriolic response seems to come too easily in your own case… you may need to check inside as well.  

  • A Pro-Life Ethic Revisited

    I want to return to my theme of a pro-life ethic. By this I don’t an ethic only anchored in abortion or right to life. It’s an ethic I want to build for ALL of life. But I return to it because of the horrifying case of Kermit Gosnell. He was convicted of killing three babies after they were born.…

  • The Gosnell Debacle

    While the media has been incredibly late to the story, at least the New York Times broke the headline just now that Kermit Gosnell has been found guilty of first degree murder. He is the abortion doctor accused of killing babies after they have been taken from the womb. How “pro-abortion” people have kept silent on this and have not…
