What to read on transgenderism. Many of us in the culture war trenches from long ago warned where we were heading with the radical sexual revolution. We tried to sound the alarm about the war on marriage and family, and how things like granting special [...]

We do NOT want a post-human future. It is often the case that writers of science fiction and various filmmakers can sometimes be much more savvy, aware and perceptive about the dangers that we face than our politicians, leaders and elites. Indeed, often it is [...]

The revelation that more than 100 secret Chinese police stations have been operating globally raises issues about the muted responses of Australian security agencies.

In a few years, Cyberdyne Systems will create a revolutionary defense system. It's called Skynet. A computer program that automatically controls the defense of the United States. The system goes online on August 4th… Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn [...]

I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. This is so strange, I thought to myself. A colleague had asked Microsoft’s new Bing chatbot to create a picture of people reading the Bible. Even by the standards of our post-Christian world, you would expect such a [...]

An extremely revealing and disturbing television documentary was aired on America’s Public Broadcasting System in February 2001. Entitled The Merchants of Cool, the show examined the way big business and the advertising industry have targeted our young people. More specifically, it explores the way youth [...]

A vitally important defence of men and masculinity. Nancy Pearcey has said that this has been her most controversial book to date. That is telling. To simply affirm the importance of men and masculinity is controversial? Sadly, in the West today, it most certainly is. [...]

C. S. Lewis, cancer and grief. In many areas of life, the ideal is to combine the theoretical with the practical. This is true when it comes to thinking about, writing about, and speaking about the issues of pain, suffering and evil -- especially from [...]

The goal of Christian homeschooling is to equip kids with a holistic thinking toolbox. This requires some form of structure and a ton of nurturing. The best educational outcomes are achieved by utilising what is known as transdisciplinary learning. This is, explains Polytechnic, ‘the integration [...]

Lyle Shelton takes readers on a rare behind-the-scenes tour of culture wars. “I Kid You Not”, is because the Left has gotten away with things most Australians would find incredible, if only they knew. Before #MeToo, Shelton fought the legalised sexual abuse of young women. [...]

Artificial Intelligence is increasingly making decisions that impact our lives. From the social media algorithms that decide what you see on social media (and thus, shape what you’re likely to believe) to artificial intelligence systems aiding medical diagnoses, these technologies all have ‘built-in’ moral and [...]

Jesus said: If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in Me—to stumble, it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea. (Mark 9:42) Harsh words. Words, from the opening [...]

Yes, we should be engaging with our culture. All Christians know about the Great Commission and most know who Charles Colson was. As to the former, it of course involves the command given by Jesus for His followers to go into all the world to [...]

Clear thinking on law and morality. As I have often said, I am not a libertarian, although two years of Covid lockdown madness and health fascism have certainly moved me a bit further along in that direction! But I still believe there is a place [...]

Some incisive and comforting thoughts from Keller. New York pastor Tim Keller died recently following a lengthy battle with cancer. He not only knew about suffering in a very personal way, but as a minister of the Gospel, he dealt with countless individuals who struggled [...]
