Senator Elizabeth Warren doesn't like mothers or babies and apparently thinks pregnancy centers are some kind of medieval torture chamber where pregnant 'persons' go in and never return. Also, what is a pregnant person? Senators on the Hill have a conversation with a pro abortion law professor from UC Berkeley and the responses are... interesting. And finally, no one reads or believ...

Disney's Baymax robot meets a trans person while shopping for feminine products. Also, from a Disney cartoon, two animated male dinosaurs are pretending to have a family by taking care of a rock egg in a nest.

Today on ChurchPublic, where we look at Current Events from a Christian Perspective: We are encouraged to eat bugs because apparently we are all living through the reality tv show Survivor.  In a related story in the Netherlands, cows are emitting too much, um, well gas so the farmers have to shut down their farms, but the farmers are not to happy about that.

I pledge allegiance to the flag of... What? Why? Why do we pledge allegiance to a flag? What does that mean? And is it significant? Does the flag we fly make any difference to our beliefs or our worldview. It does, and the left knows this and is benefiting from it. We'll look at a story of a religious Catholic school that's in hot water for flying the wrong flag and why that matters to y...

ANOTHER landmark win from the Supreme Court for religious freedom! A coach who was fired for praying, mostly by himself, before the games, has been vindicated. The Supreme Court found that personal faith does not have to be hidden everywhere but in the dark corners of your home as the state and many people tell us these days. Though the school, the state, and even the largest Lutheran denomination...

Hey Hey, Ho Ho, Roe v Wade has got to... oh, nevermind it's already gone! In unbelievable news, Roe v Wade and its ugly stepchild Planned Parenthood v Casey have both been overruled and struck down. It was pointed out, if you are not yet 50 years old like me, this is the first week where Roe was not the backdrop of the cult of death that plagued this nation. This is truly unbelievable news th...

A tale of two navies, one hyper focused on making the sailor feel safe and warm and welcome and the other intent on world domination. If we were truly worried about winning a battle, which Navy would you want fighting for you? Just a question. Also, a "win" in the transgender sports arena. Maybe? Disney continues to go woke and broke. And finally, Drag Queen and King story hour in church...

For the first time in 150 years a Republican wins in South Texas running on a simple, but effective slogan of God, Family and Country.

Inclusion is Destruction I know that inclusion is the new buzzword alongside Diversity and Equity, but inclusion generally destroys the thing it invades. Inclusion does not empower, inclusion destroys. Expanding the definition of Marriage does not grow it, it destroys marriage. What does marriage even mean anymore? For all time, it was a man and a woman as a general rule. Yes there were some who a...

Any time this week or next we will hear the decision from the Supreme Court with the high possibility of overturning Roe v Wade and sending the adjudication of abortion back to the states. You will have some states that outlaw abortion period and then you will have some states that will pay for you to travel and stay and have an abortion up until the moment of birth. This ambiguity and loss of nat...

I love learning. I think learning is super important. I am constantly reading books and listening to philosophers and theologians and all manner of other more regular people discuss ideas and history and philosophy and theology. I studied the Classics of ancient Rome and Greece in undergrad and then got a Masters of Divinity in New Testament and Biblical Greek. I don't say all of that to toot...

First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby in the baby carriage. Or so it used to be. Now we have trans drag shows for children, abortion to the point of birth, medical procedures to change boys into girls, CRT and radical LGBT ideology taught in most government schools across America. The media and politicians and celebrities tell us how amazing it is that our society has progress...

Yesterday there was a horrific act of evil in a school outside of San Antonio Texas in Uvalde at a small elementary school. At this point at least 19 students were killed and at least 2 teachers. Apparently, the shooter was killed by a Border Patrol agent who happened to be in the area. This is an act of incredible evil and I want to mourn with those that mourn. I am a father and the idea of my ch...

Representative Alexandria Occasio Cortez, or AOC, is big mad about religious freedom in America, and actually, I kind of agree with her I agree that many faiths do not have the same definition of life as Christians. So which faith is correct? And what does that mean for me? Barna Study from Cultural Research Center https://www.arizonachristian.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/AWVI2022_Release05_Digi...

"When men stop believing in God, they don't believe in nothing; they believe in anything." GK Chesterton. This observation by Chesterton, an English theologian at the turn of the 1900s, gives a great view of current culture.
