Facebook posts lead to church discipline. Well duh.
The Gerber Baby turns 85:
The most troubling violation of human rights? Conversion, says the U.N.
"Baby-boom Americans who remember the student protests of the 1960s tend to assume that U.S. colleges are still some of the freest places on earth. But that idealized university no longer exists. It was wiped out in the 1990s by administrators, diversity hustlers and liability-management professionals, who were often abetted by professors committed to political agendas....[And] if you're going to get in trouble for an opinion on campus, it's more likely for a socially conservative opinion."

Is second grade the right time for a public school to talk with your kids about homosexual household arrangements? AISD rightly decided this was a subject to be raised by parents, not the school district.
The fetus, though enclosed in the womb of its mother, is already a human being (homo), and it is almost a monstrous crime to rob it of life which it has not yet begun to enjoy. If it seems horrible to kill a man in his own house than in a field, because a man’s house is his place of most secure refuge, it ought surely to be deemed more atrocious to destroy a fetus in the womb before it has come to light.
Tim Keller, from his absolutely essential book, Counterfeit Gods:
If our counterfeit god is threatened in any way, our response is complete panic. We do not say, ‘What a shame, how difficult,’ but rather ‘This is the end! There’s no hope!’ This may be a reason why so many people now respond to U.S. political trends in such an extreme way. When either party wins an election, a certain percentage of the losing side talks openly about leaving the country. They become agitated and fearful for the future. They have put the kind of hope in their political leaders and policies that once was reserved for God and the work of the gospel. When their political leaders are out of power, they experience a death.
