America’s Green Enemies It was good news that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission approved the nation’s first nuclear power plants on February 9th, clearing the way for the construction of two reactors by Southern Company at its Plant Vogtle site near Atlanta, Georgia. The bad news is that these are the first new nuclear plants since 1978! In a nation with a growing population and increasing need for electricity to power homes and businesses, it is nothing less than insane to not include... Read Full Story

Those Denying Resurrection Keep Religious Language To Spread Deception In the 9/20/11 issues of Sojourners magazine is an advertisement for the 2012 Gladdening Light Symposium featuring Jesus Seminar scholar John Dominic Crossan.  Part of the ad copy reads, “Feed the soul, savor the beauty, and experience the communion love of Agape in the Gladdening Light of God.” However, if Crossan is being heralded as what in show business and prize fights circles is called the main event, those in...

I’d Climb the Highest Mountain When did you first see the movie ‘I’d Climb the Highest Mountain?’ Cleveland, Georgia is home to the Old Stovall Covered Bridge that spans Chickamauga Creek. This 1890s structure appeared in the movie I’d Climb the Highest Mountain. This wonderful movie was made during the 1950s, when families spent quality time at the movies where Coca Cola was a nickel, hot buttered popcorn a quarter and for a mere quarter you might see a double-feature film, cartoon and...

UN Seeks “World Tax” To Fund Global Socialism “No one should live below a certain income level,” stated Milos Koterec, President of the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations. “Everyone should be able to access at least basic health services, primary education, housing, water, sanitation and other essential services.” (SOURCE) We recommend that you click on the “source” and read the entire article by Paul Joseph Watson. Why is the US still a member of the United Nations? The UN... Read Full Story

That jobs thing sure didn’t last long Obama rejects Keystone XL jobs, promotes more wind and solar subsidies. What to do now? President Obama “is focused like a laser on putting people back to work,” Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) assured us last fall – echoing repeated statements by President Obama and Administration officials who “can’t wait” for Congress or others to take action and create jobs. The jobs thing didn’t last long, however. The President soon vetoed TransCanada’s... Read Full Story

Agenda-driven “science” at EPA By  Willie Soon and Paul Driessen Newly proposed air pollution rules impose exorbitant costs for illusory health benefits. In December 2011, the Environmental Protection Agency released new Clean Air Act “National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants.” Once again, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson touted the supposedly huge benefits of controlling emissions of mercury (Hg) and other air toxics from U.S. coal- and oil-fired power plants (or electric...

Observations Regarding The 2012 State Of The Union Obama insists he doesn’t want our energy needs linked to unstable parts of the world.  Service to do anything about the Occupy beatniks laying siege to a number of parks in Washington, DC? Why should it be portrayed as a greater tragedy when a “single mother” loses her job rather than a man with a wife that stays at home?  Seems both domestic arrangements are in similar positions without income. In calling for a single source for the... Read Full Story

Occupying the Lunatic Fringe Recently outraged Internet theologians took umbrage at my refusal to join the effort to transform Jesus into a big government, liberal Democrat that supports the Occupy squatters. Most echoed secular interpreters of Christ who claim, “Jesus shares many of the values of those in the Occupy movement.” I contend Jesus had plenty of time to confront civil authority, yet Christ focused on religious authority. He didn’t discuss politics with the centurion or tax... Read Full Story

A Southern Black History Month Moment A magazine article in 1989 caught my eye about a black child, a Confederate President’s First Lady and the Southern Presidential Family. The story was written by Gulfport, Mississippi freelance writer Mrs. Peggy Robbins and is entitled, “Jim Limber Davis.” This is my summary of Mrs. Robbin’s wonderful story. On the morning of February 15, 1864, Mrs. Varina Davis, wife of Southern President Jefferson Davis, had concluded her errands and was driving her... Read Full Story

There Are None So Blind As Those Who Will Not See I received the article below recently by e-mail as I expect many of you did. I have no clue as to the author. The message it contains is profound. Many of my generation remember Castro — even before he proclaimed he was a communist by his words and deeds. By that time, the people of Cuba were enslaved. The nearest freedom lay ninety miles away — across a watery divide. The “five and ten cents” stores sold Castro hats and Castro beards to... Read Full Story
