Six of the best-kept secrets about abortion

Last updated on: January 29, 2017 at 10:19 am By Gerald McDermott

Yesterday was the annual March for Life in Washington DC. It’s a good time to reflect on the reality of the mass-killing going on all around us, just as it was good for Americans to face up to the realities of slavery in the antebellum period. That’s why Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote Uncle Tom’s Cabin in 1852. Most Americans in the north had no direct contact with slavery’s ugly realities. So too most Americans today are unaware of the ugly... Read more

Progressives advocated eugenics and race science

Last updated on: January 27, 2017 at 9:48 am By Gerald McDermott

Thomas C. Leonard’s new book, Illiberal Reformers: Race, Eugenics, & American Economics in the Progressive Era details the time when progressives believed “inferior” races should be marginalized and eliminated through abortion, sterilization, and minimum wage laws. They were inspired by Darwin and included the likes of evangelical minister Washington Gladden and president Woodrow Wilson. Just like progressives today, they were impatient with civil and religious liberties that got in their way, and believed that only the state–not individuals and communities–can solve basic human...

God’s beautiful pluralism vs. boring equality

Last updated on: January 25, 2017 at 8:36 am By Gerald McDermott

Most theologians presume that all national and Jewish-gentile distinctions were eliminated by Jesus and the church after Jesus’ resurrection, so that Jewish distinctions are lost in a sea of gentile sameness. Yet in the book of Revelation, the gates of the new Jerusalem are inscribed with the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel (Rev. 21:12). The saints in heaven are still distinguished by their tribe and language and people and nation (5:9). The 144,000 are “sealed... Read more

UN resolution + Kerry speech = terror attack

Last updated on: January 19, 2017 at 9:49 am By Gerald McDermott

I have written here and at Christianity Today that Palestinian journalist Khaled Abu Toameh predicted that the Kerry speech last month defending the anti-Israel UN resolution would lead to more terror against Israel. He was right. Just before the UN resolution (Dec. 23) a Jerusalem Post reporter asked more than twenty Palestinians in East Jerusalem if they cared whether Israel moved its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. No one cared. Then after hearing John Kerry’s Dec. 28 speech warning that such a move... Read more

No moral equivalence in Israel-Palestine conflict

Last updated on: January 8, 2017 at 4:45 pm By Gerald McDermott

The Elor Azoria trial proves it. Israel convicted one of its own soldiers of manslaughter for shooting a downed terrorist. Has the Palestinian Authority ever disciplined one of its own for shooting a Jew? You guessed it: the answer is No. In fact, it pays Palestinians who have killed innocent Jewish women and children. It names streets after them. For the story on Elor Azoria, click here. Read more
