A closet full of clothes but “nothing to wear”? Sitting near an infant on a flight to Bali? Chipped nail polish? My quick survey suggests that, at least for Christians in

Today’s email brought this from someone recently returned from a cruise along the coasts of New England and Canada: I think I heard at least two, maybe three, of the Canadian tour guides make comments regarding global warming. They are fully convinced that it is happening and that it is having a drastic effect on

Earlier this week someone sent me a link to Katharine Hayhoe’s column “I’m a Climate Scientist Who Believes in God. Hear Me Out,” published in the New York Times October 31. In it Hayhoe, whose Ph.D. is in atmospheric science but who teaches in the political science department at Texas Tech University, criticizes the thinking

Suppose I told you that Santa Claus lived in Santa Barbara. Now suppose you reported in an article that I told you Santa Claus lived in Santa Barbara. Now suppose some “fact checker” slammed you for falsely saying Santa Claus lived in Santa Barbara. Would the “fact checker” be right? Obviously not. Because you accurately

Earlier today I blogged on an article at Daily Caller about Dr. William Happer’s resignation from the National Security Council. I pointed out that climate models simulate much more warming than actually observed over the relevant period. Someone responded, “Complete and utter bull^*@%. The modeling is accurate.” Ignore the vulgarity’s telltale sign that this wasn’t

The resignation of Dr. Will Happer, Emeritus Professor of Physics at Princeton and one of America’s finest physicists, from the National Security Council (NSC) is an important event. It is a sign of just how difficult it is to overcome the “deep state’s” stranglehold on government policy, despite the fact that President Donald Trump is
