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 [...]

Josh Timonen reveals his long journey from Dawkins to Jesus. Richard Dawkins is the world’s most famous atheist. During my university days, students were recommended Dawkins’ books. I distinctly remember seeing my peers reading Dawkins’ 2006 title The God Delusion – which has sold more [...]

2018 was a breakthrough year for me. The preceding few years had been particularly difficult, thanks to some bad decisions on my part, both in business and in my relationships. Looking back, I had fallen into passivity and failed to see the warning signs around [...]

Take a Stand for Our Religious Freedom It's a grave time for religious freedom in Australia. In the Australian Capital Territory, the Labor-Greens Coalition passed legislation to forcibly acquire Calvary Hospital, which took effect on July 3. The government considered Calvary Hospital “problematic” as [...]

by Professor Patrick McArdle  As of 3 July, Calvary Public Hospital no longer exists. Nearly half a century of service to Canberra by the Sisters of the Little Company of Mary and those who inherited their ministry has ended in public health care. Probably most [...]

Dr Anthony Levatino is a gynaecologist and obstetrician and former abortionist. During an approximately five-year period early in his medical career, he performed over 1,200 abortions. About 10% or approximately 120 of these were second-trimester abortions. In an interview with Lila Rose from Live Action, [...]

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 [...]

I can’t believe they said that.   I feel so patronised, so demeaned, and so angry.  I’m overwhelmed by my emotions -- they’re coursing through my body in waves. I can’t think. I can’t focus on anything else. I’m flooded with anger. I feel trapped. I [...]

The Declaration of Independence makes a critical error about the nature of truth. “It’s good to look someone in the eye when you are talking to them.” If, like me, you’re Australian, you will no doubt have heard this said many times. We consider it [...]

Whether we like it or not, AI is here to stay. And so, the question is not whether we adopt AI into our lives but how we adopt it. Our workplaces will gradually (or not so gradually) introduce AI technology, impacting our jobs. Our schools [...]

Canberra Catholics and staff of Calvary Public Hospital grieved as the compulsory acquisition of Calvary by the ACT Government took effect on 3 July. The ACT Government took over the Catholic-run hospital from midnight, ending a five-week battle to save it from the takeover — [...]

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 [...]

How censorship has taken over our lives, and the threat it poses to our faith and humanity. Part 1: The Tower of Babel proposed that the current global agendas bear many parallels with the ways of the Babylonians as reported in Genesis. Part 2: Nationalism [...]

“A real man is one who: rejects passivity, accepts responsibility, leads courageously and accepts the greater reward.” These are the wise words of Robert Lewis, author of Raising a Modern-Day Knight. These were the words I quoted when I spoke at a Men’s Breakfast at [...]

In January, a single defenseman’s refusal to wear the National Hockey League’s (NHL) Pride jersey shook the sports establishment to its very core.

There is no limit as to whom we can pray for. All Christians pray – or should pray – and that includes praying for others. The Bible speaks often about prayer, as does the Apostle Paul, including asking for prayer for himself and his ministry. [...]

Nefarious is the best movie you’re likely not to see in 2023. Why that is the case has nothing to do with its production values—which are excellent—but because the content just so unashamedly exalts Christ, while at the same time avoiding the cringeworthy genre of [...]

Editor's Note: Commentator James Macpherson cuts to the chase as he reflects on what Kamala Harris' latest exhortation on abortion really means for Christians. There is no compromise possible between Christianity and support for abortion, which involves killing human lives in the womb. Abortion violates [...]

Historically, threats to religious freedom have arisen mostly from the dominance of one religion over others, or from the state sanctioning an official religion. More recently, some states, such as the Chinese communist regime, have endeavoured to repress religious belief and practice entirely. While these [...]
