Abortion. Abortion. Abortion. Yes, I know. We’ve debated the issue repeatedly on Sifting Reality and it always seems to end in a stalemate. Like Simic says, we pretend to be rushing off somewhere but we never get anywhere. But I’m writing this post for a friend with whom I work. He’s a recent … [Read more...]
We need honesty in the abortion debate
February 27, 2014 by 78 Comments
Abortion. Never in the history of the nation has such an egregious violation of human rights been codified by law. Not even slavery or Indian removal policies compare to the 50 million unborn children snuffed out of existence by activist judges and their abortionist pimps. It's not all driven by … [Read more...]

Craziness: Sex Robots
February 19, 2014 by 3 Comments

Planned Parenthood is back in the news again. Okay, not the “mainstream” news, I admit. But what else is new?

Liberals & Africa…
February 9, 2014 by 2 Comments
Liberals are bizarre creatures. While claiming to represent the oppressed, they fervently support abortion; while claiming to be inclusive and tolerant, they're notoriously intolerant of views different from their own [1] ; and while claiming to be sophisticated intellectuals with a monopoly on … [Read more...]
Disagreement Doesn’t Require Hostility
February 6, 2014 by 5 Comments
Young Earth Creationists take much flak for their interpretation of Genesis, which places the Earth at around 6,000-years-old. John and I firmly believe the best interpretation supports the opposite view, an Old Earth view, clearly displayed in the comment section of Do you hold a literal view of … [Read more...]

Let me say that my Hawks' crushing victory over the Broncos is nothing short of legendary. Hell, I even lost my voice halfway through the opening snap! Safety! Safety! Safety! Yes, it was beautiful. I screamed and cheered for all the right reasons! And though my 10-month-old daughter may well … [Read more...]
Baptism: Necessary?
January 25, 2014 by 92 Comments
Infant Baptism is an issue of contention among Christians. Some believe baptism is “the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,” a necessary step to entering God's Kingdom. It washes away “original sin” so one may be “born again” free of sin. Both Lutherans & Catholics believe in … [Read more...]

Is Healthcare a Right?
November 5, 2013 by 39 Comments
This question has been mulled over ad nauseam, I realize. But given all the hoopla over ObamaCare, it's a legitimate question that deserves debate. So, I'm asking. Personally, I (TerranceH) believe healthcare is a right. And rather than people explain why my argument is lacking, I want people to … [Read more...]
Replace ObamaCare With?
November 2, 2013 by 42 Comments
I couldn't be certain, but I think the Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act ("ObamaCare") is on its second to last leg. But give it credit, for such an awfully asinine law that accomplishes almost nothing to reign in health care costs, it's stuck around for awhile. Consider, too, that it … [Read more...]
War On Women: Old White Men
September 12, 2013 by 8 Comments
How often is the pro-life movement maligned as a War on Women waged by old white men? If I had a dime... But that’s politics. More often than not, truth takes a backseat to emotion and the ever-increasing urge to rile up the base. It’s a useful tool. And lately, destructive ideas need only a … [Read more...]

The question isn’t whether chemical weapons have been used in Syria; the question is who used them. The White House is certain the attack was ordered by the Assad regime, but British Prime Minster David Cameron expresses some reticence.There is never 100 percent certainty.

President Obama’s “Common Core Curriculum” would be amusing if it weren’t preposterous. Common Core Teachers Taught to Praise Wrong Answers Like ’3 x 4 was 11’ Apparently, under the new Common-Core standards, correct answers don’t really matter.
