The Fuss About Gay Marriage is about the Children

Country and western singing icon and outspoken Christian Cary Underwood was recently criticized in on-line posts for her support of gay marriage. In an interview she said "any two people who love each other ought to be able to get married." While I disagree with Miss Underwood, I can appreciate how she comes to her conclusion. The church has neglected to teach a biblical view of human sexuality and marriage, and many millennial Christians would say much the same thing if asked. One of the reasons the courts have opened the way for gay marriage is that the Christian church has failed to model or to teach biblical marriage.  Some churches have even asserted that loving people the way Christ loves requires that we open the way for gays to marry. The Roman Catholic Church is considering a more open position on homosexuality. Miss Underwood's statement reveals a  misunderstanding of  the role of love and romance in marriage. The church needs to distinguish between Christi...

James Cameron finds it difficult to answer someone who raises this objection to the gospel because eternal punishment seems tyrannical to him. His interview with his father focused on whether the common notion of hell, being ...

Why Hillary Clinton Will Never Be President of the United States

By -
Some people are surprised at the sudden rise in poll numbers of democratic Senator Bernie Sanders. He is now a viable competitor to Secretary Clinton for the democratic Presidential nomination. The media failed to report that the recent launch of Mrs. Clinton's campaign on Roosevelt Island in New York had a disappointing turn out. The recent testimony by Sydney Blumenthal of inappropriate influence over her when she was secretary of State is one more thing that does not bode well for her. She is the gift that keeps on giving to the Republican Party. I hope she gets the nomination, because Hillary Clinton will never be President of the United States Reports that Presidential advisor Valerie Jarett leaked information about Senator Hillary Clinton's private email server to The New York Times has lead some to speculate that Obama may have conspired to sabotage Clinton's presidential campaign. Although it is clear that Obama and Clinton have at best an amicable working relati...
