As His Second Coming approached, Jesus taught, “many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many” (Matthew 24:11; all references KJV). That has certainly come to pass. We have had many false secular prophets over the past two hundred years or so, from Marx to Freud to Foucault, whose toxic, dehumanizing ideas have alienated people from God and led to much human pain, suffering, and death. Indeed, they have deceived many. The most dangerous false prophets, however, are those who wrap themselves in the cloak of religion, who “come to [us] in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravening wolves” (Matthew...

Good Morning And WELCOME To The Jeffrey T. Kuhner Show!

Months before George Floyd died on the evening of Oct. 15, 2019, in San Diego downtown a 24-year-old Angel Zapata Hernandez died while handcuffed and restrained at the hands of two Metropolitan Transit Service security workers, one of whom knelt on his neck for six minutes and seven seconds. There was no media outrage because he probably had the wrong skin color. For weeks during the pandemic spring and summer of 2020, thousands of San Diego residents and BLM/Antifa members took to the streets around the county, protesting racial injustice and police misconduct in the wake of the May 25...

Pastor Artur Pawlowski went viral earlier this month for kicking a health inspector and police out of his church in Alberta, Canada. He infamously screaming at them, "Out of this property you Nazis! Gestapo is not allowed here! Out, Nazi! Out! Nazis are not welcome here! Do not come back here you Nazi psychopaths!" Pawlowski, who became known worldwide as the "Polish pastor," kicked out a health inspector and a group of Calgary police officers again when they came to his church on Saturday to confront him over COVID-19 restrictions. POLL: What scares you the most? "And they did it...

New Belgium Brewing released a new beer that tastes bad to illustrate how climate change could affect the beer industry. The Colorado-based brewery said 'Torched Earth Ale' is made with low-quality ingredients that brewers may be forced to use in the future. For example, instead of fresh hops, the beer is made with hop extracts and dandelions. New Belgium said it wanted to make the point that climate change affects beer lovers everywhere. Last year, Fat Tire became America's first certified carbon neutral beer.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem Psalm 46Psalm 46[a] For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. According to alamoth.[b] A song. 1 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, 3 though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.[c] 4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. 5 God is within her, she will not...

In response to Bruce “Caitlyn” Jenner announcing his bid to oust California’s governor Gavin Newsom, Joy Behar said on The View, “He’s got this guy Brad Parscale running his campaign.” Later, Behar added, “I think that he should — she, rather, should take a seat and let somebody with the credentials take over a major state like California.”Behar subsequently apologized for the “pronoun mix-up,” explaining, “but, whatever, it just came out so I’m sorry if anybody was upset by that.”But the damage had been done. Joy Behar had “misgendered” Jenner, something that I seriously doubt would have happened if Jenner...

So now cops are racist even when they save a black person’s life? That’s the warped logic of the fury over the shooting of Ma’Khia Bryant. Bryant was a 16-year-old African-American girl who was shot dead by police in Columbus, Ohio on Tuesday, not long before the verdict in the Derek Chauvin case was read out. Cue online anger and activist rage. ‘Black lives matter!’, people cried. Yes, they do. Which is why that police officer shot at Bryant – because she was about to stab another black girl. ‘Black lives matter’ seems to have been the motivation for the...

I know you don’t care, but I’m sharing because you should. Those of you who predicted the Oscar wins would be peppered with wins by Asians and Blacks…take a bow, it wasn’t a sweep (old ways die hard) but still impressive by Hollywood’s hypocritical standards.Speaking of hypocritical: check out the walls build around Union Station to keep the “stars” safeHonestly, pop culture is so predictable even a caveman could do it.Wait – isn’t this…racist?Best Supporting Actor went to Daniel Kaluuya (Judas and the Black Messiah), and Youn Yuh-jung (Minari) won Best Supporting Actress.

He's on-the-air, and on-fire. Chris Plante from WMAL, 105.9 FM, in DC, is rated in America's Top 6 Talk Radio Show Hosts. His show is the "prep work" for many other shows. And, unlike the others, he pulls no punches, tells it like it is and doesn't take any BS from liberal, demonKKKrat, leftist, commie, socialist, fascist, marxist and anarchist callers. He's the guy we'd all like to sit down with and have a dbl-cheeseburger and a cold one, while talking about the state of America, and the crazies who are pulling the strings, behind-the-scenes. Get a fresh refill of...

In a Los Angeles Times Op-Ed on Thursday, Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., vigorously defended her earlier call for protesters to "get more confrontational" if former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin hadn't been convicted of killing George Floyd. Waters, in her Thursday Op-Ed, described how she attended a peaceful rally before the verdict and was asked: "What do we do if we don't get a guilty verdict? What should protesters do?" She responded: "We got to stay on the street. And we've got to get more active, we've got to get more confrontational." On Tuesday, Chauvin was found guilty of second-degree...

Eugencs, "climate change," and now the pandemic all show the dangers. First, a confession: I borrowed this title from an essay by the late Michael Crichton, appended to his 2004 novel State of Fear. I’m also going to borrow rather liberally from both the essay and the novel itself, since I doubt most of you have read it or intend to, even though you should. I will attempt to provide a brief synopsis, one relevant to both his point and mine, without giving too much away (you know, in case you do want to read it). The politicization and commercialization...

Bill Gates is not a doctor, or a scientist, or a politician.Yes, I am sure you already know this, but in this day and age, where he’s treated like all of the above, it’s worth repeating.Gates is a really, really rich nerd who makes computer software, and mosquito nets, yet somehow he’s been hailed a “scientific doctor politician” who has an awful lot to say about our nation’s health and politics.It seems like whenever there’s a discussion on COVID and vaccines and how to properly handle this “pandemic,” Mr. Gates is in the middle of that convo. Many people find...

A special messenger from the TIMES Office has just returned to this City from a tour of observation in the South. He left Norfolk on Monday night; was present at the burning of Gosport Navy-Yard; and visited the new defences erected by the Virginians below Norfolk and Portsmouth. He confirms the statements of our correspondent "York," that Gov. WISE was at Norfolk on Monday, and that as late as Tuesday neither DAVIS nor BEAUREGARD were in Richmond, nor had any formidable army been concentrated anywhere in Virginia. He reached Baltimore yesterday morning and found the city unusually quiet. In company...

Fourth Week of Easter John 10:1–10 Friends, today’s Gospel again presents the image of Jesus as the shepherd who guides his sheep. How wonderful and strange that Christianity is not a set of ideas. It’s not a philosophy or an ideology. It’s a relationship with someone who has a voice. The first disciples were privileged to hear the voice of the historical Jesus. They heard its very particular tone and texture. But we hear his voice, too, in our own way, especially when we hear the Scriptures proclaimed at Mass. Mind you, we don’t just read the Bible; we hear...

May 1st is recognized as International Labor Day by countries around the world. On this occasion, trade unions in different countries usually hold rallies in addition to celebrating this day, reviewing the achievements of the past year and plans for next year to improve the situation of workers. In Iran under Khamenei, however, for workers as the most deprived class of society, who are experiencing their most difficult conditions in the last 42 years after the anti-monarchist revolution, this day is no different from other days.While the poverty line for each family in Iran is estimated at more than 10...

The FBI released the records of murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich, which the agency had previously claimed didn’t exist. The FBI documents, released over the weekend, appear to show that an undisclosed entity either wanted to pay or actually paid a lot of money to get Seth Rich killed. The files show that top DOJ officials met in 2018 to discuss Rich’s murder and investigators found no suspicious conduct by Rich before he died. Rich was shot dead in front of his Washington D.C. home in 2016. Democrats and mainstream media have baselessly dismissed Rich’s murder as a “conspiracy theory”...
