Social transitions can often pave the way for harmful medical interventions, including life-altering ...

While virtually every Western country has passed so-called “hate speech” laws that significantly censor their citizens’ expression, the United States is among the last countries resisting this violation of free speech. But what makes America so special? After all, Finland, Scotland, Ireland, and others guarantee free speech and religious freedom in their founding documents. What makes us special is not ultimately that we have a constitution—it's that Americans are committed to practicing their rights and standing firm for their freedom in the face of opposition. But we must continue standing ...

Bryan and Rebecca Gantt were faithful foster parents to children in need for seven years—until the state of Vermont revoked their license because of their Christian beliefs. Pastor Bryan and Rebecca opened their hearts and home to love the most vulnerable among us: children without stable families who were born with drug dependencies and special needs. They adopted three children from the foster-care system and inspired other families to foster, too. Then, the state of Vermont insisted the Gantts comply with new foster-parent licensing policies that would require them to profess the state’s ...
