The Southern Baptist Convention announced Wednesday it has voted overwhelmingly to finalize the expulsion of two churches from the nation's largest Protestant denomination for having female pastors. And the vote wasn't even close, according to the SBC's tally. Spurred on by arch-conservatives in the SBC, the 12,000 or so "messengers" who had gathered at their annual meeting in New Orleans voted by a 9-to-1 margin to seal the exit of California's Saddleback Church and a smaller congregation in Kentucky. That vote, which was conducted Tuesday, set the stage for another vote Wednesday to amend the SBC's constitution to specify that...

In several past Blog posts I've documented how Deborah Dwork, Director of Clark University's Strassler Center for Holocaust & Genocide Studies, has engaged in anti-Catholic historical revisionism, falsely accusing Pope Pius XII of happy memory as having "failed Europe's Jews miserably, unconscionably." See here for example. Now, Zenit is reporting that: After six years of untiring research that has uncovered 76,000 pages of original material, plus multiple eyewitness accounts and testimonies from prominent international scholars, Gary Krupp is confident the besmirching of Pope Pius XII's reputation is coming to an end. "We're definitely winning, absolutely no question," Krupp tells me...

With Herman Cain out of the race, is Michele Bachmann poised for a second surge? And is there a biblical precedent for electing a woman president? Many people forget that Michele Bachman had a first surge that briefly made her the GOP presidential primary frontrunner. She appealed to secular conservatives due to positions espousing smaller government and low taxes. Evangelical Christians loved her unashamed positions on issues of faith. But somewhere along the way. Evangelicals questioned the biblical teachings on submission for women, wondering if it would be a 'sin' to vote for a woman President. So, is there a...

Many people forget that Michele Bachman had a first surge that briefly made her the GOP Presidential Primary frontrunner. But that may have been because many Bible believing Christians loved her values and spunk but quickly had 'buyer’s remorse' as second thoughts kicked in, wondering if it biblically correct to have a woman president. So, the question is: Is there a biblical precedent for a woman President? Yes. In a word: Deborah. The book of Judges, chapter 5, explains an eerily similar pattern to today's political and economic state of America. Ancient Israel had fallen on tough times. They had...

In the days of the judges of Israel, Israel had turned their backs repeatedly on the Law of Moses and the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Moses (Deut. 31:29, Judges 2:6-11). When they followed these absolutes of time and ETERNITY (which was almost NEVER) they were blessed and prospered by the hand of the Lord (Judges 4-5). "The consequences of this lawless departure led to the break down of society and to the chastening hand of the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Moses" During one particular time when Ehud - a godly man, deliverer and judge of the...

In the elections last November, Californians overwhelmingly voted to spend over three billion dollars of taxpayer money for stem cell research. Celebrities came pouring out of the woodwork, (and the Betty Ford Center) to praise the initiative, and pump up the minions with unfounded claims about the potential for stem cell research. Christopher Reeves name was thrown out more than a few times, even though almost every doctor admitted that it would be extremely doubtful that stem cells could have prolonged his life. Reeves, and other people with debilitating illnesses like childhood Diabetes, MS, and Alzheimers may someday be helped...

Official: Kerry failed to act on pre-9/11 tip 3rd agent to say he warned security lapses made Boston airport ripe for 'jihad' attack WASHINGTON - A third federal aviation-security agent, one still with the government, has stepped forward to say he also warned Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry about security lapses at Boston's Logan International Airport before the 9/11 hijackings there. Earlier this week, two former FAA agents said the Democratic presidential hopeful failed to take effective action after they gave him a prophetic warning that his home airport was vulnerable to multiple hijackings. Brian Sullivan, a retired special agent from...

Senate Confirms Long-Stalled Cook Nomination May 5, 7:17 pm ET By Thomas Ferraro WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Judicial nominee Deborah Cook, denied even a hearing let alone a vote by the previous Democratic-led Senate, won confirmation on Monday from the Republican-controlled Senate. On a largely party-line vote of 66-25, the Senate approved President Bush's nearly two-year-old bid to elevate the Ohio Supreme Court justice to the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati. Also on Monday, Republicans tried and failed for a fifth time to remove a Democratic procedural hurdle against another long-stalled judicial nominee, Miguel Estrada. The Senate voted...
