Again, I haven’t blogged in some time now, but I want to make a short comment about the murder of Dr. Tiller, the abortionist who specialized in partial birth abortions. I and every other person who is truly pro-life condemns his murder and all acts of violence in general. I am passionately pro-life and absolutely loath the taking of unborn human life through abortion, and especially loathe late-term abortion. But I also hate the taking of already born human life. As much as I hated what Tiller did for a living, his life was as important as the life of an unborn baby. You can’t both talk about defending unborn life and not care when an already born person is murdered. And on the other hand, you can’t only care when a grown person is murdered but not be concerned about the lives of babies who can survive outside the womb who are murdered by an incredibly gruesome “procedure” that not even its supporters feel comfortable talking about in detail. It’s double talk. People who call ...

In case people have wondered why my blog has been inactive for a while, the reason is that I’m working very hard in doing research for what I hope and pray will become my first book. I’ll reveal more information when I get further along, but I have been spending all my spare time (time not working or with family) doing research. I’ve got hundreds of pages of notes that I’ve compiled and a pretty high-level outline. I’m shortly going to be in search of a literary agent and/or a publisher. I will duck my head in more frequently to do some more writing, but I just haven’t had a lot of spare time. Hope everybody’s been doing well – TVV.

When President Franklin Roosevelt was inaugurated in 1933, he faced intense pressure from the American people to do something about the country’s disastrous economic state. In response, the new President initiated a large number of new government programs within the first one hundred days of his first term. Since that time period, observers have paid particular attention to the actions of every new American President during their first one hundred days in office. So far during the young tenure of President Obama, he has enacted a number of policies that relate to the issue of abortion. On his fourth day in office, the President lifted restrictions on United States Government funding for groups that provide abortions overseas. And on his thirty ninth day in office, the White House announced that it planned to reverse the conscience clause, a rule that, among other things, protected health care workers who refused to perform abortions because of moral objections to it. Since ...

Racism is something that has infested the thinking of people of all colors. There are black racists just as there are white racists. But I believe that all of them, regardless of their skin color, use the exact same patterns of thinking. In fact, if I could reduce what I consider the definition of racism down to one simple formula, I would describe it as follows. Racism is a state of thinking in which life and most things in it are defined by the never-ending struggle of "us" versus "them," in which "us" and "them" are defined by racial and ethnic boundaries. People who view members of their own racial or ethnic group as "us" and see their side as pitched in a lifetime struggle against members of another racial or ethnic group, "them," are people who tend to be racist in their thinking. The only difference between white racists and black racists is their respective definitions of "us" and "them." ...
