In his 2014 article “Why Stop at Refusing to Bake a Cake for a Same-Sex Marriage,” Bernard Goldberg (a political pundit seen as conservative and actually opposed President Obama) sees the issue of a business owner who does not want to cater same sex “weddings” as a civil rights issue.1 He states: “But when laws are based on deeply held religious beliefs, I get nervous.” He compares this to people using their religious beliefs to justify segregation and laws against…..
What Harvey Weinstein did can be explained very simply – he followed his own desires.1 This is what is repeatedly talked about in the Bible. Jeremiah 11:7 states: “For I solemnly warned your ancestors when I brought them out of Egypt, ‘Obey me!’ I have repeated this warning over and over to this day, but your ancestors did not listen or even pay attention.

One caller stated “Ben Carson is a lunatic, a sociopathic lunatic.” Another caller disagreed that Carson is sociopathic, but stated “Benjamin Carson is deluded” because Carson does not believe in evolution (meaning the General Theory of Evolution). He went on about how Carson believed Darwin was “evil” and believed there is a “conspiracy” to teach evolution.1 Medved defended Carson,…..
In the recent controversy in regards to the efforts to protect religious freedom in Indiana and Arkansas, I must say that I am very disappointed in Wal-Mart in the stand that they took against Christians having the right to live according to their faith. I am an admirer of the late Sam Walton and shop at Wal-Mart. But this is what I need to understand and what everyone with a biblical world view needs to understand. Those who do not…..
