Biblical Archaeology

I was trawling the web and found this story about a conduit built by Jerusalem’s King Hezekiah (mentioned in II Kings 20:20).

It seems that new research has confirmed the conduit was almost certainly built during Hezekiah’s reign around 700 B.C., confirming biblical accounts. Much to the chagrin of the liberal media! Notice the bias in the lead of the story:

In a rare success by scholars attempting to match existing archaeological structures with events in the Bible…

Rare indeed! Check out this site about biblical archaeology.

Without God

Mona Charen has a great column about the degradation of American culture.

And what of Al Sharpton? The scandal there is that there is no scandal. Here is a man who rose to fame on the strength of a racially motivated smear of a group of perfectly innocent police officers. The good Reverend has never acknowledged wrongdoing nor apologized. As if that were not enough, he was the provocateur who incited a race riot in Harlem that led to the torching of a clothing store and the deaths of seven people. Again, no apology.

The real problem is that we’ve removed reverence for the Almighty from our lives. I blame Christians for abdicating and acquiescing in the face of secularist onslaughts. More on that later.

I Wish I Was In Dixie!

November 22, 2003

JFK: Breaking the News is a really good article on revisionist history about race relations, “right wingers” and the JFK assassination. From Oregon Magazine Larry Leonard writes: The 14th Amendment was opposed by Democrats. The Civil Rights Act of 1866 was opposed by Democrats. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was opposed by Democrats — [...]

Let Them Eat Cake!

November 19, 2003

Rep. Patrick Kennedy — son of Ted Kennedy — once bragged (while drunk) that he’s never had to work a day in his life. Now the boy Congressman, speaking before a “crowd” of 200 people at a yacht and country club, said that in the Democratic Party, “every single person is important.” [Kennedy] blamed President [...]

Misguided Protestors

November 18, 2003

I’ve been trying to figure out why Europeans organize protests against President Bush and none against murderous dictators like Saddam Hussien. Retired army officer Ralph Peters offers a great analysis: Bush is worse than Saddam, you see, because he refused to look the other way. His resolve is an embarrassment. American wars of liberation humiliate [...]

D.C. Vouchers Back in the News

November 17, 2003

Human nature is something else. Here we have President Bush offering to the nation’s capital an experimental voucher plan for about 1,700 students trapped in terrible, low-performing, bureaucratic schools. Instead of embracing the experiment, liberals in Congress are fighting it. Why? Because if conservatives are proved right–that injecting competition into the educational system will provide [...]

About my last column…

November 14, 2003

For the past 18 years, I’ve kept a personal journal. I have 14 black and white composition notebooks stacked in a drawer. Every now and then, I’ll open one and flipped through pages filled with memories of adolescent angst, joy, sadness, regrets, etc. While some weblogs are strictly logs of the web, opinion sites or [...]

“Christians” Oppose Partial Birth Abortion Ban

November 11, 2003

The ghastly image of partial birth abortion brings tears to my eyes. Nurse Brenda Pratt Shafer felt the same way. Ms. Shafer, a witness to the unspeakable procedure, testified before the Subcommittee on the Constitution Committee on the Judiciary in 1996. She recalled the “doctor” telling a woman who was six months pregnant that her [...]

Today’s Christian Woman

November 7, 2003

I started writing seriously in July 2002 and “went national” and sold this story to Today’s Christian Woman a few months later. As a former alcoholic, I want to share my testimony of faith in Christ and how He delivered me from addiction.

Idiot of the Week – Another “Stolen Baby” Story

November 7, 2003

My heart cried out for this woman when I heard on the radio that she’d reported her car stolen and her 3 month-old baby was still in it. For a brief moment I thought about Susan Smith, but I put it out of my mind. Guess what really happened. The Washington Post reports: “The woman’s [...]

Partial Birth Abortion Ban

November 6, 2003

Infanticidal maniacs didn’t waste time challenging the law banning partial birth abortion. The Washington Times reports that less than an hour after President Bush signed the bill, the liberals sprang into action, citing that there is no exception for the “mother’s health.” Would you believe some of these same “pro-choice” people consider themselves Christians? While [...]
