October 18, 2011
Whenever the radicals seek to remake society in their own image, there will always be casualties. And invariably children will be among the first to suffer. All these activists are concerned about is their own selfish agenda, and they don’t give a rip about how many others will be harmed along the way.

September 29, 2011
We have now stooped to the point where people expect that they have the right not to be offended, and governments should make sure that this is the case.

September 28, 2011
Maybe if Christians just changed their names to Muslims, they too could be the recipient of all this government help and promotion, and all those cool tax dollars.
Read more...Time for a rethink on Big Porn
September 17, 2011
Taken together the information and research found here offers an insurmountable argument: porn is bad, real bad, and it is time to reclaim women, men, children, and society from it horrendous clutches.

September 9, 2011
For over fifty years now the social sciences have been telling us with the utmost clarity that there is no better guarantee of a child’s wellbeing than to have him or her raised in a heterosexual two-parent family, cemented by marriage.

September 8, 2011
Today we have anti-anti-Islamism. There are all sorts of Westerners who seem to have no problem at all with radical Islam, but they do have a problem with anyone who seeks to sound the alarm about Islamism.

September 7, 2011
So Cory Bernardi and Geert Wilders are now evil men who must be banished, but Islam is just hunky dory and should be given a completely free run.

September 7, 2011
Life will now be so much easier and straightforward, thanks to young Gwyneth sorting us out about all those ethical dilemmas. We now have the Ten Commandments nicely boiled down to just one: “Thou shalt not judge anyone because life is complicated and we are all flawed.”
