A President who Undermines Israel and Jews Who Support Him
/in Commentary, DrRichSwier.com, Elections, Politics, Religion /by DrRichSwier.comBy Matthew Hausman, J.D. The term “useful idiots” describes those who should know better than to support causes that threaten them but do so anyway.

The term […]
We Need More Bible, Not Less
/in DrRichSwier.com, Religion /by DrRichSwier.comBy Jerry Newcombe Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness, as the old saying goes. One man who is lighting many candles in our time—yea, even floodlights—is Kirk Cameron.

Leftists Attack, Then Blame Responding Conservatives as Culture War Aggressors
/in Commentary, DrRichSwier.com, Elections, Healthcare, Politics, Religion, Science, Taxes /by DrRichSwier.comBy Family Research Council Old dogs sometimes do learn new tricks. And President Joe Biden is so pleased with his latest attainment — criticizing Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) for delaying military promotions over the Pentagon’s illegal abortion policy — that he is showing it off just about everywhere. This month, Biden has bashed Tuberville’s courageous, […]

The Greatest Story Ever Distorted
/in DrRichSwier.com, Politics, Religion /by DrRichSwier.comBy Jerry Newcombe A powerful story of forgiveness is found in John 8, involving Jesus and the woman caught in adultery, wherein He famously said, “Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.” Her accusers quietly leave, one after another. Jesus then tells her that neither does He accuse her, “But go and […]
Driven Mad by Eugenics: A True Crime Drama from Spain
/in Commentary, DrRichSwier.com, Politics, Religion, Science /by DrRichSwier.comBy MercatorNet – Navigating Modern Complexities There used to be one issue which all ethicists condemned — eugenics.

However, rebadged as “liberal […]

/in DrRichSwier.com, Elections, Politics, Religion /by DrRichSwier.comBy Family Research Council An edited clip of former Vice President Mike Pence seemingly telling Tucker Carlson that decaying American cities are “not my concern” instantly went viral, but Pence’s most controversial statements at the Family Leader Summit, about Ukraine’s respect for “religious liberty,” have passed without comment.

In France, Support For Mass Immigration Has Plummeted

Islam Demands Unconditional Surrender
/in DrRichSwier.com, Politics, Religion /by DrRichSwier.comBy Amil Imani What’s in a name? A great deal. Democracy, fascism, and communism represent different systems of government. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are also titles for other religious systems.

/in DrRichSwier.com, Politics, Religion /by DrRichSwier.comBy Family Research Council Since 2001, Gallup News has polled Americans on their belief in five prominent “religious entities” — God, angels, heaven, hell, and the devil.

Winston Churchill and Islam—Part Five
/in DrRichSwier.com, Politics, Religion /by DrRichSwier.comBy Jihad Watch “The extraordinary credulity of the people is hardly conceivable.

Is Catholicism “Inadequate”?
/in Courts & Law, DrRichSwier.com, Politics, Religion /by DrRichSwier.comBy The Catholic Thing Robert Royal: Cardinal Mueller has confirmed that, while he ran the Vatican doctrinal office, there was a file on Victor Manuel Fernández, soon to take over Mueller’s former post, and, on the basis of Fernández’s view of recent Catholic history, it’s no wonder.

Winston Churchill and Islam—Part Two
/in DrRichSwier.com, Elections, National Security, Politics, Religion /by DrRichSwier.comBy Jihad Watch Churchill biographer Con Coughlin also describes their character in unflattering terms: “The Pashtuns invariably used violence to resolve their differences, which led to feuds between families lasting for generations.
