When cultural changes create new demands on governments, before they react to the changes, it is incumbent upon serious people to examine the causes. Like GLOBAL WARMING, EVOLUTION, and […]
The greatest war in the history of the world was fought and won without a shot ever being fired or a soldier or sailor having been killed in battle. Three men leveraged and then deployed their moral fiber and virtue, and their profound belief in God, that was the bases of the moral pillars they […]
