The Moon from a Creationist Perspective
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
From a creationist perspective, the Moon is understood not as the result of naturalistic processes over billions of years, but as a purposefully designed object created by God, primarily described in the Bible—especially in the Book of Genesis.
This is in contrast to the atheistic perspective, which is filled largely with naturalistic models that have been either demonstrated to be false or patched up with untestable just-so stories.
Created Intentionally by God
The Creationist Perspective on the moon starts with Genesis 1, which states that God made “the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night.” Now, contrary to some claims made by scoffers, this does not imply that the moon creates its own light. It is simply indicating that one of the moon's purposes is to provide light for the Earth. The fact that light is reflected from the sun does not change this purpose.
GPATS: Your Voice Matters on the Future of Transportation in Greenville County
- Details
- By Benton Blount - Chairman of Greenville County Council
Over the next couple of weeks, GPATS (Greenville-Pickens Area Transportation Study) will be holding a series of public meetings across our community as part of the Horizon 2050 Long-Range Transportation Plan process.
Now, I know “long-range transportation planning” may not sound like the most exciting topic in the world, but the reality is this process directly affects everyday life for people across Greenville County for decades to come.
These conversations help shape decisions involving road widening projects, intersection improvements, traffic flow, bridge replacements, transit planning, pedestrian connectivity, and overall infrastructure priorities. In many cases, the projects discussed during these planning cycles become the projects competing for state and federal funding years down the road.
Bible Ministry Aims to ‘Break Record’ for Most Scriptures Given Out in a Day

Bibles For The World says 1.4 million copies of John’s Gospel to be given away Pentecost Saturday, May 23
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — A leading Bible organization says it aims to break the record for the number of Scriptures given out in a single day.
Bibles For The World says it will distribute approximately 1.4 million copies of the Gospel of John in 20-plus countries as part of a global evangelism effort on Pentecost Saturday, May 23.
“It is record-breaking in that it’s the single largest provision of Scripture in history for a one-day evangelistic event,” said John Pudaite, president and CEO of the Colorado-based nonprofit organization.
Returning to the Moon, a Creationist Perspective
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
For the first time in over 50 years, human beings are preparing to return to the Moon. Returning to the Moon has many scientific advantages, particularly before attempting manned missions to any of the planets or even asteroids. The Moon has the advantage of being the nearest celestial body, along with having a strong enough gravitational field that you cannot float away. This makes a perfect proving ground for studying the effects of partial gravity on the human body.
Thanks to space stations, such as the International Space Station, we have plenty of experience with long-term exposure to 0G. In this area, we have had astronauts and cosmonauts spend over a year in orbit; as a result, we have learned that long-term exposure to weightlessness has negative side effects. Now we have learned how to reduce some of these side effects, but not all of them.
Report Shows ‘Educated’ Democrats More Accepting of Political Violence
- Details
- By USPIE
People who spend more time in these institutions getting advanced degrees are more prone to adopting leftist views, including the use of violence to achieve their ends
Americans have been told that education in and of itself is the solution to the nation’s problems. The more education citizens get, the better the outcome — supposedly.
That might have had a grain of truth if education at all levels had not been hijacked by ideologues intent on indoctrinating youth into adopting their left-wing agendas.
Recent research indicates, however, that ‘highly educated’ people like the activist accused of trying to assassinate President Trump on April 30 are more likely to embrace political violence.
Better Government and Better People: John C. Calhoun and the Most Powerful Cause of Moral Character
- Details
- By Winston McCuen - South Carolina
Bad government and the pain and suffering and death it causes spur men on toward better government.
The main purpose of government, as ordained by God, is to preserve and to protect society. Bad government is government that fails to carry out this purpose, either by negligent inaction or by hostile anti-social action. But if and when human government fails, God, by His Providence, and working indirectly through the human natures that He created, provides a remedy.
Man, by his created nature, and specifically, by the inclination and force of his individual and social feelings, bestirs himself when, in this earthly life, he deems his own condition and that of his loved ones insufferable. And this is so both in the public and the private affairs of man, and it includes, by the way, both the suicider, whose goal is to spare himself future suffering, and the self-sacrificing patriot, whose goal is to secure safety and liberty for his family and countrymen.

Economic, Energy, Religious, and Military Factors in the Iran War
Part 2 – The United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, and Oman
United Arab Emirates (UAE)
The United Arab Emirates is a country on the southwestern coast of the Persian Gulf near the southeastern end of the Arabian Peninsula. It is bordered on its west by Saudi Arabia and on its southeast by Oman. The UAE consists of seven Emirates and is sometimes referred to as “The Emirates.” These are Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah, and Fujairah. Each is ruled by a hereditary male monarch (Emir or Sheikh). These are united into a Federation. The seven Emirates have complex borders, because several have exclaves in other Emirates. Each Emirate maintains its sovereignty, but functions under the Federal UAE constitution and government. The UAE is one of the most important American allies on the Persian Gulf.

All Things Work Together For Good

In my previous two messages, I’ve shared the history of how Wisconsin Christian News came to be. Because we’re now praising the Lord for the start of our 27th year of publishing, I wanted to share with you what this journey has been like.
I’d gotten our first edition of the newspaper printed in April of 2000. But my idea of the ministry being immediately blessed of God quickly evaporated, along with all the “encouragement” I’d previously received from pastors and other ministry leaders. In “theory,” they were all behind the idea. But now that I’d actually done what I said I was going to do, few could be bothered with it.
Fulton Judge Ignores Law in Allowing Raffensperger to Reject Challenge to His Own Candidacy
- Details
- By Righteous PR Agency
ATLANTA — A Fulton County Superior Court judge issued an order Monday upholding Secretary of State (SOS) Brad Raffensperger’s refusal to transfer a gubernatorial candidacy challenge against him to an administrative court as required by Georgia law. Any elector may send a candidacy challenge to the SOS who is mandated to send all challenges to the administrative court system for a hearing as per O.C.G.A. §21-2-5(b).
Northwest Georgia residents, Brandyn James and Harvey Wysong, filed a Petition for Writ of Mandamus seeking the court to force the SOS to comply with the law by transferring their challenge, which is based on an approved Georgia Republican Party resolution stating:
“It is resolved that the Georgia Republican Party shall not qualify, allow to be qualified, or take any action to allow Brad Raffensperger to qualify as a Republican or run for any elected office unless and until a GAGOP Convention removes this restriction;” [pg 10]
Targeted Sanctions as a Key U.S. Foreign Policy Tool to Promote Religious Freedom
- Details
- By U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF)
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) released the following report on targeted sanctions:
Targeted Sanctions in Response to Violations of International Religious Freedom – Targeted sanctions are a vital U.S. foreign policy tool for promoting accountability for violations of religious freedom. Measures such as denying U.S. visas and freezing U.S.-based assets aim to influence behavior and demonstrate that the U.S. government will not tolerate such abuses. In addition to the International Religious Freedom Act (IRFA) of 1998, other laws provide tools to sanction individual perpetrators, including the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act of 2016 and the Immigration and Nationality Act. This factsheet outlines these relevant authorities and their application in countries such as Afghanistan, China, India, and Nicaragua, examining the role of targeted human rights sanctions within broader U.S. foreign policy efforts to advance religious freedom.

Does the Bible Teach a Flat Earth?
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
In recent years, you have had a lot of claims from atheists and flat-earthers alike that the Bible teaches a flat earth. We will take a look at as many of these claims as possible to check their validity. We will also look at some arguments that go against the notion that the Bible teaches a flat earth.
The Bible never says the earth is flat. Not only does the Bible never actually say the earth is flat, but you do not even find the words earth and flat in the same verses. This means that to claim that the Bible teaches a flat earth, you need to find verses that you can interpret as referring to a flat earth.
This means that, at best, the entire argument depends upon a very specific interpretation of selected Bible verses.
A Nation Under God: A Call to Prayer, Courage, and Renewal
- Details
- By Carlos Duran - The Washington Stand
On the National Day of Prayer, Americans across the country pause to seek God’s wisdom, mercy, and guidance. It is a moment to reflect on who we are as a nation: a people shaped by faith, rooted in Judeo-Christian values, and united under God. It reminds us that our strength is not found solely in military power or economic success, but in our enduring reliance on the protection and guidance of Divine Providence.
From our earliest beginnings, faith has been central to the American story. The Pilgrims fled religious persecution in search of the freedom to worship. In 1775, the First Continental Congress called for a day of “public humiliation, fasting, and prayer” as the nation struggled for independence. In 1789, President George Washington issued the first Presidential Thanksgiving Proclamation, declaring that “it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God … and humbly to implore His protection and favor.”

This campaign is designed to close that gap by delivering clear, timely messaging that connects women directly to abortionpillreversal.com, where immediate help is available.
It Is History That Teaches Us How To Hope

IT WAS THE “OLD MUSIC” THAT HELPED TO MAKE AMERICA!
Those of you who have read my “ancient” columns in the now “extinct” newsprint version of The Times Examiner (from 1999 to July, 2018), and in its digital version since July of 2018, know how much I love classical music. But as I’ve said several times, I also enjoy other genres of music, particularly the “Big Band” music of the 1930’s and 1940’s (Glenn Miller and Guy Lombardo, especially). I like Dixie Land jazz, and I love the music and songs of George and Ira Gershwin, the music of Sigmund Romberg, and especially much of the wonderful music of Rogers and Hammerstein from their great Broadway musicals over many years. I adore the “old-timey” music of George M. Cohan, that “YankeeDoodle Dandy” who wrote hundreds of great songs for his musicals over the decades that stretched over the first half of the 20th century. And I love the music of the Christian Church, which is a musical genre all its own. All of this glorious music was written during the good old days when music was musical. Too bad that it isn’t so in our day and age, but it isn’t.
My Walk In the Wilderness

- By Rob Pue - Wisconsin Christian News
In my last message, I began telling the story of how our ministry, Wisconsin Christian News came to be. How I initially fought God on the idea, how He continued to work to press me into service, until I finally accepted the mission He was calling me to.
But this is a three-part message, because there’s so much to share, and I was only able to give you the “back story” in part one — what I was doing when God called me to this work, and how I finally came to submit to His will. If you missed that message, you can find it on our website. I’m sharing this story because we’re now starting our 27th year of publication. “On paper,” there’s no way Wisconsin Christian News should ever have survived. But God made a way, and here we are, all these years later. So now, I’ll tell you about my walk in the wilderness.

There is a myriad of ways to take our property – and the “powers-that-be are using them and more that they just make up on the spot.
We’ve written about many in our Workbook, in Tom DeWeese’s Sustainable, and in scores of articles. And in more ways than most of us could ever conceive of an act being pulled-off, for instance killing hundreds of ostriches because a couple of years earlier two had been ill but recovered. In fact, the government of Canada had them shot! Another example is capturing” CO2 from atmosphere and compressing and storing it in geological formations. I won’t even get into what could go wrong or, even more, how absurd it is to take CO2 from the atmosphere where we and plants thrive on it.
Many people do not realize that “property” is more than land or a house. Your clothes, your written words, the food in your house and the gas in your car are your property. And your children. Don’t think those taking other forms of your property won’t touch your children.

IF FAITH FADES AWAY, FREEDOM WILL INVARIABLY DIE!
I am indebted to Joe Wolverton 11, J. D., Constitutional Law Scholar for The John Birch Society, for the inspiration to write this article, much of which mirrors or amplifies his wisdom as he expressed it in an article titled: “The Manger & The Republic”, published in the December, 2025 issue of “The New American” magazine, the best and most informative and TRUTHFUL magazine being published today (by American Opinion Publishing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of The John Birch Society). With apologies to other writers, past and present, I consider his article to be the most introspective, the most insightful, the most accurate and wise, and perhaps the most disturbing one I’ve read for many, many years. All of the “quotes” and ideas are from Joe’s article, in his own words or in my ‘amplification’ of his thoughts. When one confronts the wisdom distilled from experience and truth, further comments only serve to “nail down” that truth, and reinforce it. That’s what I’ll try to do in the words that follow.

American Costs and Risks in the Iran War
Unfiltered truth and analysis
In one of retired U.S. Army LCol. Daniel Davis’s YouTube podcasts on April 17, he summarized American costs since the second American and Israeli attack against Iran on February 28. The first attack, called the 12-day war, occurred between June 13-24, 2025, ending with a brokered ceasefire. Davis has established one of the most honest and thorough coverages of both the Ukraine and Iran War. He is a decorated combat veteran of the Iraq War and the Afghanistan War. He became an outspoken critic and “whistleblower” on the conduct of the Afghanistan War. Although he was nominated to be the Deputy Director of National Intelligence under Director Tusi Gabbard early in 2025, his nomination was essentially blocked by pressure from powerful Congressional and Trump donors associated with the American-Israeli Political Action Committee (AIPAC).
The Increasing Importance of Drone Warfare

Lessons from Ukraine and the Middle East
Just as this article was about to be published on Sunday April 12, President Trump declared a U. S. Naval Blockade of the Iranian controlled Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf. This immediately followed the failure of peace and cease-fire talks in Islamabad, Pakistan, to which Vice President J.D. Vance was to be the chief U.S. negotiator. Although I have confidence in Vance and was hopeful, the failure is exactly what I expected. The two sides are far apart and not inclined to reasonable compromise, so we are essentially left with escalating war. Moreover, Trump’s additional threat to have the U.S. Navy halt ships that have paid a toll to Iran was grievance enough for Iran to escalate its drone and missile warfare. In addition, Trumps’s threat to halt or board foreign ships in the Strait is waving a red flag in the face of China, which probably regards such an American move as piracy. There are several reports of increased Iranian drone attacks on Israel, but the fog and tension of war and inclinations to propaganda and censorship are blocking more news than usual. The escalation has already driven the price of West Texas Crude (WTC) up 8% to $104 per barrel. In stocks, the current Dow futures are down $383. Gasoline prices are moving back up.

This month marks another anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. For generations, this tragic story has captivated hearts and minds. The loss of the Titanic left a shaken world in disbelief and made people stop and think. I, personally, became deeply intrigued by the Titanic from the moment I learned of the story as a young child.
I believe this is one of those rare, historic events that provides a myriad of timeless lessons. The most obvious is the sinfulness of human pride and arrogance...clearly present in almost every aspect of the story.
