There are a lot of things in this world that are just messed up.
I have always made a practice of not giving money to people in need or beggars but instead buying them lunch or trying to meet a need they have. We have had people come to the church and say they need gas [...]

Laws are made to protect children because they do not have the ability or the developed mental maturity to make decisions on things like [...]

Great opinion article written by Peggy Noonan in the WSJ today. I have noticed over the years how PC is determined by the liberal media or the left side of the political track. We are constantly being bombarded with a left point of view that is mostly an anti-Christian world view.
