This one from LifeSiteNews is a really good one!

Like partial-birth abortion bans, fetal pain laws advance public recognition of the unborn child’s humanity and should be supported.

A good article from the National Catholic Register on the late great Chuck Colson. I think it compliments my earlier post on ecumenism this morning very nicely.

We Are A Christian Nation

I am going to start off saying some things that could come across as negative (because they are not positive things). My point in this article, however, is to encourage Christians to rise above all the negativity and to suggest some general lines about how to do so.
