The causes of African poverty is often misunderstood, but the continent’s economic history provides an opportunity to take a closer look at what went wrong. “African poverty was not caused by colonialism, capitalism or free trade,” says Tupy. “As I have noted before, many of Europe’s former dependencies became rich precisely because they … [Read more...]
Humanity Crucified on a Cross of Iron
A few people remember President Dwight Eisenhower’s Farewell Address, where he warned Americans about the rise of a military-industrial complex… a warning that was stunningly accurate and almost fully ignored. What almost no one remembers was Eisenhower’s speech in 1953, when he said that under the pressures of fear and war spending, humanity was … [Read more...]
Our Battle For The Soul of The West
I recently read Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali’s book Triple Jeopardy for the West: Aggressive Secularism, Radical Islamism and Multiculturalism. Nazir-Ali’s point is that all three movements pose a grave threat to the West as the vacuum where Christianity once was is filled.

The ‘Absolute’ Loss of Moral Values and Faith
(These are my views as a woman living in England, on how the culture and spirit of my country has changed over 50 years. Why the country does not feel protected or strong any more, how it has lost, and is losing it values and decency, and how we are daily losing our free speech.)

The Legacy of Karl Marx
Today is the 200th anniversary of the birth of Karl Marx. Parts of the liberal establishment are falling over themselves with excitement, marking the occasion with a wave of books, articles and events.

In the Jan. 8, 2018, issue of the San Francisco-based newspaper BayView, the group’s founder, Phillip Jackson, wrote a commentary titled: “Celebrate Black History Month By circulating … [Read more...]
The Man Who Saved The World Nuclear War
This week Congress has the opportunity in the Graham-Cassidy Health Care Bill to end the Federal funding of Planned Parenthood. We pray they act before it is too late. It is undeniable that God’s judgment hangs over our land for the atrocious sin of abortion. Many Americans were not aware that God spared us a devastating judgment just 10 years and … [Read more...]
Amusing Ourselves to Death
Trump, the NFL, and Us: America’s Descent into Triviality Could it be that our fascination with the story is more important than the story itself? President Trump, the NFL, and us. Last week was a week full of headlines. On Wednesday, the president, speaking before the United Nations, said that if the U.S. “is forced to defend itself or its … [Read more...]
Benjamin Watson: It’s NOT About Skin… It’s About Sin!
During his interview with Brooke Baldwin from CNN, Benjamin Watson, a tight end for the New Orleans Saints expressed that there were two parts of his message that resonated with him the most—the introspection and encouragement. Introspectively he says, “How can I look at white skin and make assumptions but not want assumptions made about me? … [Read more...]
An Empire Self-Destructs
Empires are built through the creation or acquisition of wealth. The Roman Empire came about through the productivity of its people and its subsequent acquisition of wealth from those that it invaded.
