On a sunny day in September on Bigbury Beach in Devon, England, Calvary Chapel pastors were prepared and eager to perform many baptisms on the shoreline. Food and Bibles were prepared for the 60 believers expected to show up for this event. However, by the end of the day, 170 had been immersed in the sea making a public declaration of their faith in Jesus Christ.

This November, Idaho voters will decide whether to pass Prop 1, the so-called Reproductive Freedom and Privacy Act. A “Yes” vote creates a statutory “right” to abortion in Idaho until fetal viability. A “No” vote would leave in place Idaho’s Defense of Life Act, which protects babies from fertilization. Prop 1 is a citizen-initiated statute. If it passes on November 3, it will take effect on January 1, 2027, as new state law.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation is an atheist group based in Wisconsin. The atheists fired off a letter to administrators at Erma B. Reese Elementary School. They said the teacher’s cross was a violation of the law – and that by posting the cross in the classroom she gave the signal that Christian students would be given special treatment.
Browse social media and you may come across the artistically produced video of a woman imagining her “final days.” The video has been accused of both promoting and romanticizing assisted suicide, with commentators likening the “ad” to the kind of activity “Hitler and Goebbels were doing in Germany, pushing the murder of the ‘unfit.’”
Incoming students at the University of Minnesota are being introduced to lessons on identity politics that characterize the Declaration of Independence as embodying “sexist policies,” according to a scoop from Libs of TikTok.

The U.S. Supreme Court decided in favor of allowing states to use the Department of Homeland Security’s database to check registered voters’ citizenship. In a 6-3 per curiam decision (an opinion issued in the name of the Court and not an individual justice), the justices overturned an injunction from District Court Judge Sparkle L. Sooknanan, a Biden appointee, blocking states from using the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) system.
In April 2024, then-Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona announced the addition of “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” to Title IX. This redefinition of “sex” led to horrible consequences, as McMahon explained: "The Biden Administration’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) pushed schools across the country to illegally allow males to intrude into women’s sports and intimate facilities, and it investigated school staff for using incorrect pronouns or failing to ask students to declare a preferred gender. The Trump Administration has rescinded these agreements."
“There is growing psychiatric evidence that affirming a child’s gender dysphoria at school by using incorrect pronouns and names sets a vulnerable child down a path with lifelong consequences,” said ADF Senior Counsel Tyson Langhofer. “Children across the country have suffered for too long because of the lies of gender ideology. Schools must cease participating in this dangerous experimentation on kids and respect the right of parents to direct the upbringing, education, and healthcare of their children.”
Huckabee sent an official letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu highlighting Parsa’s support for Israel, his public opposition to the Iranian regime’s threats, and the humanitarian circumstances facing his family. Parsa’s attorneys then submitted the ambassador’s letter as part of the legal proceedings.

President Isaac Herzog, Defense Minister Israel Katz and IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir attended the arrival ceremony. Katz called the submarine’s arrival a clear warning to Iran and others seeking to threaten the Jewish state. “Distance does not grant immunity, not in the air, not on land, and not at sea,” Katz said. The vessel will now undergo the Navy’s operational integration process. Israeli officials said its advanced systems, stealth and endurance will strengthen the country’s ability to confront threats far beyond its shores.

The Trump DOJ has now secured agreements with at least six major hospital systems now requiring them to stop providing child sex changes, as the Justice Department expands a nationwide investigation into these barbaric practices.
One questioner asked how we should respond to claims that moral standards have declined in recent decades. The other panellists responded by denying the premise. They argued that morality has not declined at all. I responded by pointing out that when Queen Elizabeth II came to the throne, less than 5% of babies were born outside wedlock – a number that is now over 45%. Marriages are down and divorces are up. I noted that this is bad for society. It was at this point that I got booed.

You know what's really sad? Major networks like CNN, The Washington Post, CBS, ABC, and NPR completely neglected to cover the murder of Mr. Shukrun. Yet, they are more than eager to repeatedly publish about settler violence in Judea and Samaria—a problem that the Israeli police and the Israeli defense forces continue to manage. The lack of coverage of this horrific terrorist event on the eve of Yom Kippur is absolutely deafening.
“An innocent, defenseless human life, in a caring and humane society, deserves better than to be flushed down a toilet or burned in an incinerator.” Such are the words of Henry Hyde, the former U.S. congressman from Illinois who tirelessly championed life and introduced the Hyde Amendment in 1976. Almost 50 years later, the legislative rider faces the opportunity to be renewed again.
According to the popular science article, “[The cave] was used by Denisovans for more than 100,000 years.” So for 100,000 years, these “early humans” simply lived in a cave, hunting and gathering with simple stone tools. For 100,000 years. They didn’t invent farming; they didn’t significantly increase their technology. They didn’t go and explore and settle new areas. They just lived in this cave, eating the same things and using the same tools, for millennia after millennia after millennia. Have you ever stopped and thought about what a ridiculous claim that is?
A lot of smart people live in Seattle, but their City Council did something really dumb this week. By unanimous vote, the Seattle City Council on Tuesday removed the legal reality of male and female in city statute relative to “sexual orientation” and gave legal recognition and protections to a whole host of very unhealthy sexual and gender identities. Some of them don’t even exist in reality. They even backtracked on the lie that sexual orientation rests on “just being born that way.”
Thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators protested outside the 2026 contest in Vienna, while similar demonstrations surrounded Israel’s participation in previous years.
