The Holy Father canonized the 800 Martyrs of Otranto today. These 800 people chose death rather than renounce Christ. Their courage and the resistance of their fellow citizens saved Rome from the fate of Constantinople, which had fallen to the Ottoman Turks in 1453. These videos tell about their sacrifice then and canonization in Rome today. The second video also describes the canonization of two other saints. Read more
All you moms, enjoy. Everyone else, go hug your mom and tell her Thank You! Read more
Let me tell you about my mother. She is 87 and she gets confused. She gets confused a lot. For a couple of years there, every day was a challenge just to keep her alive. We rushed her to the hospital several times so they could drag her back from the edge. Now, her physical health has stabilized, but her mental health is going downhill, a little bit at a time. She reminds me quite often that I took her... Read more
Is government intelligence a contradiction in terms? The reason I ask is because an 83-year-old nun and her two not-so-Rambo-esq buddies managed to break into the Y-12 National Security Complex last July and spend two hours putzing around hanging banners and putting up crime scene tape before anybody noticed. They also sprayed baby bottles filled with human blood on the walls. Now think about this. An 83-year-old nun breaks into our nation’s top nuclear weapons manufacturing facility and doo-dahs around... Read more
This video was produced by Reach America, an education organization based in Coeur d”Alene, Idaho. Gary Brown, founder of the organization, said that one of the factors that inspired him to create this video, which is named The Thaw, happened last year when a public school teacher asked students to write an essay title, “I Believe,” without using the names God or Jesus in their papers.

There is one Jesus. Every difference between Christians is a difference that human beings have created. Because there is one Jesus and He is the same Jesus for all of us. We live in an era with rising violent persecution of Christians in much of the world. That is coupled with a militant secularism that appears to be setting up the framework for legal discrimination and marginalization of Christians in most of the rest of the world. Christians must stand... Read more

The idea of a universal human language goes back to the story of the Tower of Babel in Genesis. Now a group of researchers have developed a theory that people living in Europe and Asia 15,000 years ago may have spoken a common language. Of course, other researchers disagree. Which, I guess, will set off years of debate. An article describing the common language theory was published May 6 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. It claims that... Read more
I’m going to get roasted and toasted for this post. It would be hard to say anything more politically incorrect that what my typing fingers are about to type here on this blog. Let me begin with a vignette from my daily life. A few days ago, I was in a committee meeting in which we were discussing amendments to Oklahoma’s advanced directive laws. Several doctors testified about this legislation. During questions and answers, one of them remarked, “A patient can’t... Read more
I wrote a post a few days ago explaining why a late-term abortion is never necessary. I also wrote another post discussing how many late-term abortions are being performed. As soon as I have the time to put it together, I’m going to write another post showing how late-term abortions work in ordinary hospitals and the ways that doctors coerce women into having them. For now, I want to make it clear that this Live Action video just touches the... Read more
