Where public policy meets common sense

I know that it seems as if all we down here in Sussex County talk about is prayer here and prayer there. We have become the county of the prayer law suit. Our county council has been sued over its former practice of holding an organized prayer during its monthly meetings and the [...]
In today’s world, we often forget why Christmas matters. I believe that by secular standards, He is one of the ten most influential people to ever live (many would argue the first, but I am not looking for an argument). His teaching completely revamped human culture. His movement has grown century after century. His devotees [...]

I would like to take this time to wish all a happy holiday season. I know that the fact that I have said a holiday season will offend some. Those who see their faith as a team sport mostly. I would however ask all who worship the one God, to remember that we are [...]

Say Merry Christmas I was inspired to write this post after hearing this song the other day. It seems as if every year, at about this, time we are bombarded with stories about how the Christian faith is under attack. We hear about how Nativity scenes are no longer allowed on the town [...]

Two beams formed a cross and were about the only thing left standing after the 9/11 attacks. It almost as if Christ himself was honoring the Priests who gave their lives comforting, aiding, and blessing the injured and dying. It is part of the story that some radical godless bullies do not want told. The [...]

Whereas, The Sussex County Republican Party Executive Committee acknowledges that the First amendment prohibits Congress from passing any law establishing religion, the practice of reciting the Lords Prayer does not constitute establishment by Congress or by the Sussex County Council, from the founding of this nation prayer to the almighty has been the norm in [...]

Sussex County Clerk of the Peace, George Parish took a stand for traditional marriage, he has not backed off. Now he must plan the next step. How will he accommodate the new rights of gay couples without losing his own right of conscience? It is the debate of the decade.
GOD loves you and has a plan for your good. That plan was set up at the foundation of the earth. GOD knew we would struggle and fail, but he loved us enough to redeem us from our frailties and give us his strength. When the GOD who gave us life gave us liberty, he [...]

Science and Religion agree that a mother and father are the best arraignment for children. Sadly, the new civil union law, which like Delaware amends the definition of the family is erupting in controversy. It is forcing Faith based organizations to adopt to gays couples. We all know that sometimes the ideal situation is not available. [...]

Obvious to most, the universe didn’t happen by accident. It is intelligently and wonderfully made. Most importantly for us, it was created for a purpose by design. That means we are created for a purpose and by design by Supreme Creator. Pope Benedict said, “Contemplating it (the universe) we are invited to read something profound into [...]
KIRKUK, Iraq (AP) — Iraqi Christians on Wednesday called off Christmas festivities across the country as al Qaeda insurgents threatened more attacks on a beleaguered community still terrified from a bloody siege at a Baghdad church two months earlier. A council representing Christian denominations across Iraq advised its followers to cancel public Christmas celebrations out [...]

A shout out to a couple of members of my Church here. Congratulations on the first project which will soon be released. There is nothing wrong with good Theology mixed with cool music. It is another tool to reclaim the culture. Now back to your normal programing.

His Holiness Benedict XVI made a common sense pronouncement on condoms being a step to personal responsibility for those with AIDS. Like several Catholic theologians, I have long wondered how condoms which do not involve chemically altering the body to be infertile or worse kill off zygotes were in the same category. There was nothing [...]

The U. S. Conference of Catholic Bishops seem to have the same feelings the rank file displayed in the recent election. Catholic voters went Republican. The election of Archbishop Timothy Dolan over his more liberal counter part will hearten cultural conservatives of any faith. Archbishop Dolan was an original partner with Chuck Colson in the [...]

Where does Natural Law, the 10 Commandments, our Republic, and Glen Urquhart come together? Since man’s beginning we have had to deal with weakness and vulnerability. Moses and the 10 Commandments(1200 BC) helps, Natural Law helps, and Religion plays a key roll. One tends to overlook religion’s sustained importance in making our Republic work. The [...]

The New York Times July 3, 2008 The story of the tiny St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and its efforts to rebuild after the collapse of the World Trade Center is one of well-intentioned promises that led to endless negotiations, design disputes, delays and mounting costs. It is, in other words, a microcosm of the [...]

America is slipping into a religious apartheid. Jefferson’s wall of separation between church and state has quietly morphed into a separation of church and state, then into a separation of Christianity from public policy and education. It is contrary to the founder’s vision. The founders wanted to protect American religious expression in the public square [...]

I am a fan of David Barton. I DVR his program on TBN and have DVD’s and books by him. Today, you have a chance to see rest of the story when it comes to America’s founding generation. From the Beck Report A full hour about God? America was built and anchored on faith in [...]
It is doesn’t matter the color you are as long your blood was red. Polling confirms this fact. 78% of Americans believe in the Resurrection, including 99% of Evangelicals. So much for the hope of the secularists in the media who want Christianity to go away. The power of the Resurrection is timeless and is [...]

As I was reflecting on the Holy season, I thought about the Apostles. The Apostles experienced three days which are representative of the the three stages of grace. The First was the day of Crisis, the second was the day of despair and disillusionment, the third was the New Beginning and the Day of Triumph. The LORD [...]

The extremist virus spreading through Islam must be cured. Everywhere it goes it inspires a violent tyranny. In Somalia, 13 Christian leaders have been targeted and killed. We saw what happened at Ft. Hood. We see what is happening in Nigeria. We see what happened in Afghanistan. We saw what happened 9/11. I think it [...]

Anyone who is familiar with Joan Deaver knows that she is a liberal fruitcake of the first order. It does not take long to come to this conclusion. For those who actually listen to her in a conversation, this should take about 20 minutes. If one gets distracted it will take about an hour. In [...]

The ACLU has done more damage to America than any other organization. It has distorted the liberty protections of the Constitution into chains of oppression whenever it is allowed to go unchecked. Here is another example. The criminal charges, which carry up to a $5,000 fine and a six-month jail term, originated with a Jan. [...]

Recently, a Congressman introduced a resolution declaring next year the year of the Bible. This type of resolution usually sails through. We have resolutions declaring awareness of everything under the sun. The PC San Francisco led house Democratic leadership found fault with this resolution. In the past, honoring our heritage was common place. Here is [...]

A certain news magazine (the name of which is not worthy of my mention) had a sensational cover declaring the Decline and fall of Christian America. As usual the secular left can’t understand the rest of America. It was timed to coincide with Holy Week while 70% of America is honoring Christ. It was typical [...]

How Great Thou Art Today is a special day for those of us who believe in the Living God who cares about humanity in a personal way and not some mystical “Sky Daddy”. That understanding informs all of life. His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI gave us a clarion call to escape the desert of godlessness [...]
