FRONT PAGE

buddy White House ignores Yahoo! role in online porn
A new effort on the part of the Bush administration to attack the purveyors of Internet child pornography is a good first step, according to AFA, but completely avoids the major players who facilitate the distribution of obscene materials.

TELEVISION

What you can say and do on television
Almost 30 years ago comedian George Carlin’s routine, “Seven words you can’t say on television,” shocked many Americans and delighted others. His irreverent approach to public profanity eventually brought him even more fame in a case that reached the U.S. Supreme Court.


CHURCH AND CULTURE

Destruction of Fortresses
On the one-year anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks, the banner of the Fox News Channel’s Web site said: “9/11 – The Day America Changed.” Very few would argue that our nation was altered in substantial ways by the attacks last year, but many Christians are perplexed to discover that, in spiritual matters, nothing has really changed.


DON'S COLUMN

Why I Avoid The Issues
I have often wondered, in the midst of the cultural war in which we find ourselves, why some ministers refuse to address some of the most destructive social vices of our day. In the following satire, I try to imagine being one of those ministers.


GOD AND COUNTRY

The Christmas Violin
Held prisoner in Germany in WWII, U.S. Army 1st Lt. Clair Clline and his friends made the most of one 'Silent Night.'

PORNOGRAPHY

Will glut of online porn create more young sex offenders?
Evidence that links pornography and sex crimes is largely anecdotal rather than scientific, but then common sense doesn’t always require authentication.


Christian Activism

Teen Pact trains youth for godly government
The young man banged the gavel and announced in a loud voice, “The ‘ayes’ have it!” As the room erupted in applause, he stepped away from the lectern and returned to his seat. The “Senate” of the State of Mississippi had just voted on and passed a legislative bill that would ban abortion in the state.


TIM'S COLUMN

Is anything worth fighting for?
As I sat in front of the television set at the age of eight, I had questions. They were about the evening news and what Walter Cronkite was showing and telling us about what American soldiers were doing in a far away place called Vietnam.
