Florida Governor Signs Law Defending Educators’ Right to Witness

By Lauri Lebo

…on the First Amendment freedoms of teachers, staff or students unless they sign a waiver.” What? One can’t sign away one’s First Amendment rights. The tersely written legislation says in its entirety: Protection of school speech—district school boards, administrative personnel, and instructional personnel are prohibited from taking affirmative action, including, but not limited to, the entry into any agreement that infringes, or waives, the righ…

Evangelicals and Newt: Love Him or Hate Him?

By Sarah Posner

…ey would use terms like “sanctity” and “traditional marriage” and “God’s design” and all that. Not that mushy “values we hold so dear.” It’s not just values we hold so dear — it’s God’s command, God’s plan, God’s design for men, women and the family. (Have the Iowans for Christian Leaders in Government read anything Vander Plaats has written?) Of course it’s possible that these Iowans want a differnet kind of Christian leader in government — one t…

Mitt, Moochers, and Mormonism’s “Other” Legacy

By Mary Barker

…ordinance in 2001 making it a “United Nations-free zone” (the UN being a “sign of the times” and a horrendous mistake that Skousen thought we should rectify). The law banned the UN from La Verkin and required anyone collaborating with it to file an annual report and post a sign in the window stating, “United Nations Work Conducted Here.” It also protected native La Verkin soldiers against UN “involuntary servitude.” The Cold War is over; both Ben…

The Tea Party, the Blind Man, and the Elephant: Part 1

By Julie Ingersoll

…long ago when road construction made the place entirely inaccessible, the sign told a councilman that if he could find access to the shop he could have a free sub. Now the place hosts (and I mean hosts: free wings and sausage and their locally-famous sweet tea) a monthly tea party meeting. I’ll admit to being put off when a few weeks back the character of the sign changed: it said “a red-neck, Bible thumping (something or other) owns this joint,”…

Beck Fuels End-Times Hysteria Over Egypt

By Anthea Butler

…f Biblical prophecy there is only one lens: a sign of the end, a prophetic sign fulfilled, or the beginnings of the tribulation. Sites like Now the End Begins, Prophecy Today, and Calvary Prophecy Report are just a few of the blogs and websites referring to the events in Egypt as a sign of the end or — more ominously — the beginning of a new war. Conspiracy monger Glenn Beck has of course jumped with both feet into the fray, repeatedly referring i…

The Christian Roots of the New Age: The Aquarian Gospel

By Louis A. Ruprecht

…bolized by the fish, as was the early Church itself, is a preeminent water sign; the past two thousand years, she noted, had been dominated by water and the connectivity that oceans provide. Among the papers Levi Dowling left at his death was one explaining his conviction that the Earth and our Sun were entering the Dispensation of Aquarius, a literal New Age. Aquarius is an air sign, he noted, and the triumphs of the twentieth century were destin…

Egyptians Queue Up to Say: On February 4, 2011, I was in Tahrir Square

By H.A. Hellyer

…retary General of the Arab League). The Mufti of Egypt declared he would resign if a single protestor were harmed; but there was no sign today at Tahrir Square that any real violence would occur. As the Muslim protestors carried out their congregational prayers in the square, and their Christian compatriots protected them as human shields, the imam of the main mosque in Tahrir Square declared, “In how you are, you display the manners of our liege-…

Hurricane Sandy Spawns Right-Wing Theodicy

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…ne is a huge bucket of vomit in America’s face during the election. What a sign from the holy God of Israel that American politics is an abomination to Him. A pro-homosexual Mormon along with a pro-abortion/homosexual, Muslim Brotherhood promoter, Hard Left Fascist are running for president. And there is no cry of repentance from God’s people! I see this storm as a warning from the LORD to call His church to repentance, This might be the last call…

The Islamophobia Dodge of the Religious Freedom Pledge

By Sarah Posner

…rs talk about Islamophobia — by the very candidates it is trying to get to sign the pledge? The only candidate so far to sign the pledge is Rick Santorum, who just last week advocated for profiling of Muslims. Santorum has also maintained that “Christendom” is at civilizational war with “jihadis,” who include, in his mind, moderates like Imam Feisal Rauf. When I asked an Open Doors spokesperson, Jerry Dykstra, about Santorum’s endorsement of Musli…

An Independence Day Sermonette

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…ckers everywhere. Old Glory has become not only a sign of patriotism but a sign of God’s blessings upon America. Flags have been draped in the sanctuaries of churches around the country as a reminder to churchgoers that the United States is God’s chosen nation. In the wake of last week’s legal victories for LGBT rights, many Evangelical Christians are warning that God will soon reject us as His chosen nation. The American Family Association’s Tim…
