Liberal Christianity Will Not Survive For a Long Time

OrthodoxEurope.org | Bishop Hilarion Alfeyev | Feb. 13, 2008

I would like to draw your attention to the danger of liberal Christianity. The liberalization of moral standards, initiated by some Protestant and Anglican communities several decades ago and developing with ever-increasing speed, has now brought us to a situation where we can no longer preach one and the same code of moral conduct. We can no longer speak about Christian morality, because moral standards promoted by ‘traditional’ and ‘liberal’ Christians are markedly different, and the abyss between these two wings of contemporary Christianity is rapidly growing.

The Second Amendment’s Day in Court

Human Events | Oliver North | Feb. 15, 2008

When the Washington, D.C. City Council enacted the toughest gun-control law in the nation in 1976, the city fathers — according to what they said at the time — believed they were making our nation’s capital a safer place.

FrontPage Mag | Tom Purcell | Feb. 5, 2008

Rudy’s gone, and now I’m really depressed. It’s winter, you see, a rough time for the self-employed. It’s rough because our 1099s arrive in the mail.

My 1099s always add up to more than I thought they would — my taxes will be higher than I expected, and that depresses me. And because I’ll have to organize hundreds of receipts that I keep in a giant box — a task that will take countless hours — I get even more depressed. [Read more…]
