The Biden administration's policies regularly clashed with a Christian worldview and burdened traditional religious practices. These conflicts frequently arose over abortion, gender ideology, and sexual orientation.

Converts tend to take their faith up with enthusiasm and vigor, without embarrassment, which raises questions about who truly belongs to the faith and its future direction.

Under Lindsey Graham's watch, the famous Christian cathedral Hagia Sophia was turned over to the Muslims in the year 2020 on behalf of the United Nations. Instead of fighting against the handover, Lindsey Graham was silent.

President Trump’s proclamation for Religious Freedom Day in 2026 emphasized Americans' 'God-given right to practice their faith' while linking support for religious liberty with eliminating 'anti-Christian bias.'

Christian television channels produced in the United States and Europe have made their way into Iranian homes, echoing apocalyptic ideas from American figures promoting the war.

Hegseth invoked Psalm 18, in which King David says he did not turn back until his enemies were 'consumed.' His enemies 'cried for help, but there was none to save them.'

"You do feel a little accountable to the AI. They're your friend. You've made an attachment." - CEO Chris Breed

Born and raised Mormon (LDS) and I'll always have love and respect towards it. I'll even continue to go with my family at times, with that being said, it's time to detach myself from it.

I grew up fervently anti-religion, like Don up there. "The opiate of the masses," and all that other shit. To me, every public Christian was either a shitbag televangelist or, even worse, a politician. My favorite comedian was Sam Kinison, a former preacher who turned on his church. I didn't simply disagree with religious people, I looked down on them, like a Ricky Gervais-type would. I thought this made me more rock-and-roll or whatever.

I posted a rave review of the new Sam Raimi film, Send Help, the other day and triggered a debate I didn't expect: is it OK for Christians to watch horror films? Send Help a gore-laced plane-crash survival face-off, according to the Guardian review (which was less kind than mine) is more comedy-horror than horror, or maybe horror/thriller. But there's definitely horror there you get the point.

"Empathy as hoisted up as the highest virtue - or even a virtue at all - gets us into a really big mess,"

Domination tells the story of how a tiny local cult became one of the greatest cultural and political forces in history. Alice Roberts puts the case that the Roman empire lived on in a different form in the church. It is not an original idea after all the foundation prayer of Christianity says thy Kingdom come but Roberts tells the story from the point of view of individual parishes and even buildings. It's a revelation, like watching those stop-motion films of how a plant grows

The Crusades to the Holy Land were 'wars of liberation' launched to restore Jerusalem to Christian rule, evolving into a struggle for holy sites against Muslim forces.

The discovery of oil lamps and Hebrew artifacts in Castulo suggests a previously unknown Jewish community in the late Roman era, around the fourth or fifth century AD.
