…ng’s research upholds the Genesis account of creation. A post from EveryStudent.com; the site claims to be “a safe space to explore questions about life and God”—especially, it seems, if you want someone to convince you that God is real.

…d to defeat Prop 8 – have argued that it Prop 8 unconstitutional on the grounds that it “violates the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment by impinging on fundamental liberties.” This is the central issue in Lawrence v.

But as the CNN poll found, 49% of self-identified “born again” registered Republicans believe Trump to be the best positioned candidate to handle immigration. That’s a pretty stunning number given Moore’s very public rejections of Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric, and is indicative of one kind of split among these voters.

Torture Denial: U.S. Flunks the Religious Acid Test

…ies of the misdeeds; it requires honest self-examination. Today’s spate of denials, the “many misgivings” responses coming from the liberals, and the bitter attacks on the credibility of the Torture Report all tell us that white Americans (not just the blaring and bullying Saxby Chamblisses)—and white American Christians in particular—are nowhere close to acknowledging that our ethical behavior in the Land of the Free has fallen rather short of wh…
