Human rights are an absurd notion if one is an atheist, and they are inconsistent with Scripture. Human rights appear to be a good will gesture, a gift to the unfortunate from the privileged.

There are only two words you need to know to understand human history. These two terms are freeloading and accountability. These two terms encompass the events of human history.

The community never wins in a zero-sum game. Democrats see the economy as a fixed...
