CIVILIZATION’S INTERREGNUM – PART 15

“We were keeping a steady rain of bullets and arrows, with a few spears, down onto our enemies. Our people close to the center of the battle signaled Pastor Lee that they estimated the enemy still numbered 110 to 120, and their weapons were far more superior to ours. They mounted a fierce attack against Edrood’s position, forcing him and his men to retreat up the hill toward our Old White Church. What none of us knew was that hiding in the forest just behind our church was a mixed pagan and Jesus Sect force of about 75 men, plus several women fighters, who had arrived from a nearby village that had not yet been attacked. They had volunteered to help Andria kill our Enforcer enemies, knowing that they were next. Edrood was told of this fresh force, and ordered one of his men to tell them that he was going to pretend to retreat into the forest behind the church to lure the enemy right toward them.

Is intelligent Design an Argument from Incredulity?
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
One of the common claims made by atheists against intelligent design is that it is an argument from incongruity. While sometimes, people do use this type of argument when arguing for intelligent design, the idea is actually based on we observe not personal belief or understanding. It is the arguments against intelligent design that are mainly arguments from incongruity.
An argument from incongruity is an informal logical fallacy where a person argues that something must be true or false based on their understanding or belief about it. An argument from incongruity has two main forms.
Biden Administration Attempts to Seize the Means of Agriculture

Conservation or Communism?
“It’s not about conservation; it’s about control.” At September’s Eagle Council 52, Executive Director of American Stewards of Liberty Margaret Byfield shared her story about her family ranch being ripped away after environmentalists and heavy federal regulations had harassed them. When President Joe Biden announced an executive order on his sixth day in office to conserve at least 30% of all U.S. lands and water by 2030, she knew from personal experience that family property rights were under attack.

Why is the U.S. in the U.N?
- Details
- By Kathleen Marquardt - American Policy Center
Did the United States join in with the other world leaders to build a safe and altruistic organization? Only if your definition of safe and altruistic is akin to believing your mother is the tooth fairy.
Nope! The instigators of, first, the League of Nations and then the United Nations had no room for charitable instruments; the plan was to set up a governance system that would eventually be used to take control of the entire world. Alger Hiss, a known Russian spy, had been Director of the Carnegie Foundation and then right-hand man for Franklin Delano Roosevelt, orchestrated the writing of the U.N. Charter. It was built by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) (in concert with Hiss) and funded by the Rockefellers (and other globalists) to control the world – courts, weapons, economy, and even our minds. And it usurps our sovereignty.
HUGE win for Free Speech

Institute for Free Speech Represents Moms for Liberty in HUGE win for Free Speech in Brevard County, FL
We are celebrating a recent win for free speech in the 11th Circuit of Florida!
A federal appeals court has ruled in favor of our Brevard County, FL chapter in a case challenging their school board's policy that restricted speech at public meetings. The lawsuit was filed in 2021 and stemmed from incidents where individuals were prevented from speaking at school board meetings due to the overly broad nature of the district's policies.
The court found that the school district's policies failed to provide clear definitions of prohibited speech, leading to arbitrary enforcement and suppression of dissenting viewpoints.
The Truth About Columbia

- By SC House Freedom Caucus
The Congaree isn't the only swamp in the capital...
A few weeks ago, one our Democrat colleagues penned an op-ed on the website of a Democratic campaign manager, alleging that the Republican majority in the SC House makes all of the decisions while cutting out the voices of Democrats like him. However, his assertion is wide left and 20 yards short. While it may appear that a Republican supermajority reigns over the General Assembly, the reality is far more complex—and far more troubling. In truth, moderate Republicans and House Democrats often work together behind the scenes to grow budgets, expand bureaucracies, elect liberal judges, deal out hundreds of millions of your confiscated dollars to their pet projects, and consistently fail to deliver on the conservative promises that the Republican majority was elected to fulfill.
Ukrainian, Russian Jewish Christians Lead War Aid Effort in Israel

Escaping war in their homeland, Ukrainian refugees deliver vital aid on Israel frontline

LOVES PARK, Ill. -- It's a surprise twist few would have imagined — Ukrainian and Russian Jewish Christians are playing a vital role delivering aid to suffering families on the frontline in Israel, 2,000 miles from the war in Europe.
Recent immigrants to Israel include Ukrainian refugees who've added to the ranks of Israel's small-but-growing evangelical community.
"Many Ukrainian Christians of Jewish heritage who fled the war in their homeland to resettle in safety in Israel now find themselves at the center of another brutal conflict," said Michael Johnson, president of mission organization Slavic Gospel Association (SGA, www.sga.org). "Their determination to help their fellow Israelis is remarkable."
The Illinois-based organization is backing the relief efforts of more than a dozen Ukrainian and Russian-speaking congregations in Israel that are helping Israelis as the war escalates in the Middle East.SGA has launched a "war relief" campaign to support critically-needed aid distributions led by the Ukrainian and Russian-speaking churches.
Why, In Our Free Country, Do We Lack Education Freedom?
- Details
- By Star Parker
What issue could be more important to a nation's future than education?
A country is about people. How Americans act, work, think, choose -- live -- reflects their values.
K-12 education, of course, is about learning to read and do math. This is what we measure in test scores.
But education is a lot more than acquisition of technical skills. It is about transmission of values and our sense of meaning of what life is about.

Kamala Harris Wants America to Have the World's Highest Death Tax
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
Here is something no one in the media is reporting as Vice President Kamala Harris continues to duck and weave like Muhammad Ali in the ring to avoid any questions about her economic plan.
The American Business Defense Foundation reports that under the Harris tax plan, the number of Americans subject to the hated death tax would double or triple. This would happen because Harris has declared she will let the Trump tax cut expire next year if she becomes president.
Thanks to the Trump tax cut, the amount of an estate that is currently exempt from tax is roughly $13.6 million.
State Attorneys General Shield Citizens from an Overregulated Federal Government

These Generals Have Your Back
With the slim Republican majority in the U.S. House of Representatives and a slim Democrat majority in the U.S. Senate, very few conservative priorities have made it to the President’s desk. In fact, our principled Republicans have spent a lot of time combatting legislation that would infringe on our states’ rights. Fortunately, they have allies in many states who are lending their support.
We would like to shine a spotlight on two Attorneys General in particular. Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall and Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey have fought tirelessly to right the wrongs of the Biden administration in their states. Eagle Forum has joined them on several issues that protect families and communities from the overreach of the federal government.
NC Attorney General Josh Stein’s 2020 Judicial Rebuke on Election Rules
- Details
- By Mike Scruggs
Fair Elections for NC – Josh Stein Should Not Be Elected NC Governor

If fair elections matter to North Carolina voters, they should look at Josh Stein’s record as Attorney General before electing him Governor of North Carolina. North Carolina Democrats seem singularly focused on abortion issues to cover up their failing, unpopular, and increasingly radical policies on almost every major issue. The Democrat Party was once a reasonable and Constitutionally oriented party, but it has surrendered its heritage to fanatical left-liberalism with a strong totalitarian bent. This includes making election fraud easy in order to manipulate elections.
PERKINS: How Should Christians Approach the 2024 Election?
- Details
- By Tony Perkins - The Washington Stand
The candidates say it. We say it. Every few years, the world thinks it: “This is the most important election of our lifetime.” And in a nation ripped apart at the seams by two radically different visions for our country, it will never stop being true. Since Barack Obama’s vow to fundamentally transform America — a promise he kept — each November has become less about politics and personalities and more of a ferocious battle over whose worldview will define a nation. Values and traditions that used to unite us have vanished, replaced by the hard contours of two parties without much common ground.

Should We Support Our Local Police Forces and Keep Them Independent?
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb

WHY SHOULDN’T WE FEAR, DESPISE, AND DEFUND THEM AS THE ENEMIES OF OUR REPUBLIC DEMAND?
Sixty-one years ago, in 1963, Americans began to hear the first beginnings of the clarion call that has become a crescendo of common sense and needful action if our constitutional freedoms are to be maintained: “SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL POLICE, AND KEEP THEM INDEPENDENT”! The man responsible for formulating this concept in the long list of freedom-preserving “actions” was the late and great patriot, Robert Welch, Founder, in 1958, of one of the oldest and most effective organizations dedicated to the proposition that the Constitutional Liberties and Safeguards formulated by our Founding Generation were not up for grabs and were not to be negotiated away upon the altar of “world government”. That organization is THE JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY, named after a young missionary to China who also was a Captain in the U.S. Army Air Force, who served under the famous “Flying Tigers” General, Claire Chennault, and who was murdered in China by Satan’s communist cadres in August of 1945.
Take Action: House and Senate Taking Votes on “Woke” Defense Bill
- Details
- By Eagle Forum
After the November elections, the House and Senate will vote on the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Each chamber has its own version (H.R. 8070/S. 4638), containing provisions that could damage our armed forces. The two versions must be reconciled, so there is still time to weigh in with your Members of Congress.
In July, the Senate version passed out of committee with two provisions that Eagle Forum opposes. The first terrible provision would require women ages 18-25 to register for the Selective Service. Sadly, a number of Republican Senators support this language, ignoring the fact that women do not have the same muscular and bone structures as men and therefore fewer women would be capable of qualifying for military service. Reports and studies have shown that men outperform women in strength and endurance. Even when they “meet the minimum requirements” for military service, women are injured at twice the rate of men, just as female athletes in high school and college sports suffer much higher rates of injury. Anyone sending young women off to war would be using them as cannon fodder.
Does Our Life Style and Conversation Reflect Our Christian Profession
- Details
- By Jim S. Brooks - Roebuck, SC
The historical narrative of the revelation of and essentiality of the appearance and work of Jesus Christ at the cross in the Bible powerfully declares the patience and unsearchable richness of the love and mercy of our great God. That blessing is unearnable by mankind. God is not compelled by any creature to perform the wonders revealed in the Bible, but He freely chose to share Himself with His creation. God chose to freely give His eternal life-giving spirit to any individual of mankind that simply believed, trusted in and relied on His revealed Words. No creature, created or uncreated, from above or below, can compel God under any set of circumstance obligate Himself to give His spirit. No one can earn the gift of His Spirit. To reiterate God’s gifts are in pure love and pure grace.

Christian Woman: Keep Silent in Church
- Details
- By Winston McCuen - South Carolina
The Holy Bible, in both testaments, declares that women should keep silent in public assemblies of the church.
The command for woman’s silence in church is historically continuous and unchanging, and not historically contingent or dispensational. It applies universally, or independent of time or place. The timeless command from God, and its underlying rationale, as stated most explicitly by the Holy Spirit speaking through the Apostle Paul at 1 Corinthians 14: 33-35, allows no exceptions.
