Not all the movies I enjoy watching are good movies. In fact, there are some bad ones I have watched over and over again, sometimes because they’re fun and sometimes because they bring back memories of when I saw them or who I saw them with. I’ll always associate seeing “M*A*S*H” — not a bad …
I have never been a big believer in Hell. Oh, I believe in God, if for no other reason than not wanting to believe that man is the crown of creation. I think it’s important to believe there is a greater purpose to life than just individual happiness. Religion is a tougher call. To me, …

So the state of Arizona passed a law in 1864 making almost all abortions illegal. There’s just one catch. There was no state of Arizona in 1864. Arizona didn’t become a state until 1912.

Today is Easter, the holiest day of the Christian religion. It honors the day Christ returned from the dead after dying on the cross to redeem humanity for its sins. This year it honors the Second Coming of Christ, also known as … Are you really going to go there? Well, yeah. This past Monday, …

I wrote just the other day about Nick Fuentes wanting to execute non-Christians and Charlie Kirk putting the lives of frozen embryos over those of existing children.
