Freedom for Iran
I vividly remember the Islamic Revolution of 1979 when Ayatollah Khomeini returned to Iran and brought with him the darkness of theocratic evil.
Though the Shah (Mohammad Reza Pahlavi) was no saint, before the mullahs took over, Iran and Israel were America’s closest allies in the Middle East. You read that right. Closest allies.
Now forty-seven years later, the protests by the Iranian people against their authoritarian government just might usher in a rebirth of the nation–and increased peace in the Middle East.
Pray for freedom for the Persian people -and how the USA might help.
Christopher Columbus and the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election
We celebrated Columbus Day this week and many businesses and government offices were closed for the holiday. Honoring Christopher Columbus takes me back to a jingle we learned in grade school:
“In fourteen hundred and ninety two Columbus sailed the ocean blue.”
The name Christopher means “Light-bearer” and Columbus paved the way for the light of Jesus Christ to spread to the Western Hemisphere. Only one of our presidential candidates shares that sentiment–Donald Trump.
My thoughts on Christopher Columbus and the 2024 U.S. presidential election.
Disagreeing With O’Reilly on the Pilgrims (and Witches)
Bill O’Reilly, host of the “No Spin News,” is one of my favorite news pundits. He reminded me a few years ago to question all you see/hear on TV and the Internet and always seek the facts about news and issues.
I paid $280 to become a lifetime member of his nightly broadcast for access to materials and commentary. In return, I received a free set of his Killing series books (now 13). They comprise the most successful non-fiction book series in history with nearly 20 million copies sold.
His latest blockbuster is Killing the Witches: The Horror of Salem, Massachusetts.
But I disagree with O’Reilly on the Pilgrims (and Witches).
