Ann Coulter talked about liberals being godless, but Bob Ellis comes at liberals from this angle: J. Matt Barber's column today at CNS News points out a spiritual truth about liberalism. He mentions a sermon he heard a few weeks ago at Rivermont Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Lynchburg, VA by Pastor John Mabray: In his sermon, Pastor Mabray illustrated that, although they've now assumed a more contemporary flair, the fundamentals of Baal worship remain alive and well today.

My family members and I were having a discussion the other day about the different types of parents. The debate became heated as we dwelled on the topic of absentee mothers and fathers.

Being a parent, there is not a way in hell that I would ever abandon or neglect my children. I kept thinking to myself, “How in hell could anyone ever not want to be there for their child/children?” I caIf only Bush's missiles were as easy to duck as that pair of shoes
This is Peter Hitchens' Mail on Sunday column Is it a crime to throw your shoes at the President of the United States? If so, is it a serious felony deserving a savage beating and a spell in jail, or a minor offence to be dealt with by a fine and a ticking-off?

This used to be a normal occupational risk, and it stopped them getting above themselves. President Bush’s American audie“MENTORrific” Job & Life Coaching for Teens

by Carol Cavanaugh There is no more challenging issue for families than the impact of divorce on the children that are involved. Although children may have experienced trauma as their parents grew apart, the major impact of such a life-changing event becomes even more pronounced when the separation is final. As that change unfolds, adults in the child’s life become extremely important as sources of support, love, understanding, and sharing. Of those adults, those most commonly associated with Mommy Monthly Dec. Edition
