VIRGINIA COLONY: August 2, 2019 My last column in “WORLD” noted the good mood 400 years ago at the July 30, 1619, inaugural meeting of Virginia’s General Assembly. The assembly wanted to maintain peace with the Powhatan tribe and promote “the Conversion of the Indians to Christian Religion.” James Horn in his book “1619” shows how...
Stimulating simulations: Evidence for God, not hackers

A CREATOR: April 3, 2019 The observable universe contains more than 100 billion galaxies. Our galaxy alone, popularly known as the Milky Way, has more than 100 billion stars. Does that make you yearn for those days of yesteryear when many followed the thought of Aristotle and Ptolemy: Five planets plus the sun and the moon circling Earth? Was it...

YEARNING FOR GOD: March 6, 2019 In the spring young men’s hearts turn to romance and old men’s hearts to baseball. As James Earl Jones intones in “Field of Dreams,” a great but flawed movie, “The one constant through all the years has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers.

MEDIA BIAS: February 15, 2019 At a memorial service for Eugene Peterson last November, his son Leif said the pastor/author for 50 years had one main message: “God loves you. He’s on your side. He’s coming after you. He’s relentless.” I alternate New York Times (NYT) and Washington Post ...
A tale of two books: With great liberty comes great responsibility
Marvin Olasky 01/28/2019 - 5:19pm
LIBERTY: January 23, 2019 I grew up in a Jewish household, went to six years of Hebrew school three days a week after public school, and chanted my way through a bar mitzvah service at age 13. I then started going evenings to a school for studying the Talmud, which is made up of ancient rabbinical debates. One edition runs 73 volumes. HERE...
