This riddle is no joke
by Jean Walters
There’s a riddle that asks the question, “What’s the difference between socialism and communism?”
The answer, “A few days.”
Socialism, Marxism, Communism…One can discuss the differences as long as he’d like. But one thing is for sure: all of them are catastrophic. Unbelievably, there are some who actually think socialism is [...]

Society Needs More Patriarchs
by Hank Martin
As a participant in high school forensics, I recall being involved in debate regarding women’s rights, and the equal rights amendment. My opponent, who was female, brought up a quote that I’ve not been able to erase from my mind. She quoted Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who with Susan B. Anthony, [...]

Loving intolerance
by Marnie Deaton
In this day and age, it’s often difficult for Christians to speak out about other people’s actions. Our culture’s current love of tolerance causes some Christians to so fear being offensive that we avoid speaking out at all. However, Christians live under a different moral code than unbelievers. Christians are not called [...]

Can America avoid being a nation judged?
by Hank Martin
Our nation is intensely divided. We can see how caustic the discord is, because of the closeness of the votes in the latest presidential election. In the words of the Apostle Peter, in 2 Peter 1:10 “make our calling an election sure.” From a Biblical standpoint and [...]
Guest Editorial: No, you can not
No, you can not
by Charles Battig, MD
In six short months, the inspiring campaign motto “Yes We Can” has been replaced by a pervasive “No, You Can Not!” attitude. How disappointed must be those who voted for believable change and a fresh start for our nation.

Plan B and the Morning After pills—The truth behind the UVA Health System’s lies
