“You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.” “O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!” Heavenly Father, Your creation, the work of Your hands, is a glorious revelation of Your wisdom, power, and goodness. Yet many people fail to recognize that. They are blind to how the heavens declare Your glory, and the sky Your handiwork. I see this especially in the ease with which so many people … [Read more...]

You shall not make for yourself a carved image
You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments. O Lord, why did You forbid us to … [Read more...]

You shall have no other gods before Me.
Father, it’s so easy in this life to let other things take Your place in or thinking. Wealth, friendships, freedom, our own pride—these and many other things we tend to prioritize above You. Free us from these, we pray, and free the many people who have turned the world itself into their god—“atheist” secularists for whom the material world is the ultimate reality, pantheist spiritualists for whom the cosmos is god, primitive animists who substitute many gods for you. Those attitudes are … [Read more...]

Greens have been claiming that since the 1990s. AG's United for Clean Power endorsed the claim and initiated investigations and lawsuits. Except not. For years independent journalist Russell Cook has exposed the errors of the conspiracy claim. Now a federal judge in the ultra-liberal San Francisco circuit has rejected the claim, too. In … [Read more...]
What’s Behind the Rhetoric of ‘Climate Change’ and the Demonizing of Skeptics?
Emily Holden is a well-trained rhetorician. In her Politico article “Climate change skeptics run the Trump administration,” she writes of President Trump and his appointees’ “disbelief in the scientific evidence for climate change,” which of course is spin in multiple ways.

Merton wrote 80 years ago, “Most institutions demand … [Read more...]
