Beware of Feds bearing gifts!-By Alan Keyes - August 4th, 2001 - Klamath Lake The dispute over whether to release water from Klamath Lake for use on farms in the region, or to reserve it for the sake of several species of fish, is fertile ground for recalling several points of practical principle crucial to the prosperity of a free people. - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Reclaiming sex education - By Alan Keyes - May 26, 2001 - Every week we hear new horror stories of explicit and even perverse sexual material and "instruction" being imposed on school children in the name of sex "education." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Taking America into the next century - By Alan Keyes - December 16, 2000 - "After a month of obsession with politics, we began to notice that it is not normal to be obsessed with politics. Now that George W. Bush is inviting us to look "beyond politics" to ... prescription drugs, it may be a good time to think about what really are the issues that lie beyond the frequently ephemeral disputes of political contest.." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Goring Life - By Alan Keyes - October 28, 2000 - "An article published by the Catholic News Service on Oct. 16 reports that Al Gore "sees a burgeoning grass-roots movement seeking common ground on abortion." But in reading the report of the interview, all I could see was a burgeoning movement by Al Gore to manipulate American Catholics into thinking he is something other than a pro-abortion zealot..." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Time Ticks for Tyranny - By Alan Keyes - August 26, 2000 - "As Clinton faces the inevitable end of his long hold on power, there is good reason to fear an intensification of his habitual unwillingness to submit to the often cumbersome and tedious restraints that the Constitution wisely puts on the powers of his office. The Republican Congress, hoping that its long nightmare will end on Nov. 7, has distracted itself by concentrating on a series of attempted propaganda victories in an attempt to strengthen George W. Bush's bid for the White House..." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Trustees of Mankind's Better Destiny - By Alan Keyes - August 9, 2000 - "Next week there will be a national "summit" meeting in Birmingham, Ala., to consider the state of the civil rights movement. It commemorates the anniversary of the racially motivated bombing deaths of four little girls 37 years ago in a Birmingham church. I am afraid that much, or all, of the discussion in Birmingham will concern the strategy and tactics of the rear-guard defense of the race-based spoils system commonly known as 'affirmative action...'" - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Standing in the Path of Evil - By Alan Keyes - July 1, 2000 - "The Supreme Court's decision striking down a state ban against partial-birth abortion has everyone in the pro-life movement reaching for new adjectives to describe the depravity of our so-called political elites. The decision makes clear, yet again, that the only real prospect for ending the abortion nightmare in America is for the people to assert their sovereign will...." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Imposing Whose Morals? - By Alan Keyes - June 19, 2000 - "Conservatives are frequently accused of attempting to impose their moral vision on America. We, in turn, accuse liberals of much the same thing -- although we correctly call the liberal attempt an immoral vision..." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Why the Declaration of Independence Matters - By Alan Keyes - May 27, 2000 - "A furor has erupted in New Jersey regarding what I would have thought was a simple and forthright suggestion - that school children begin their day with a brief reading of the opening paragraphs of the Declaration of Independence..." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com

Standing for the Constitution - By Alan Keyes - February 26, 2000 - "...if we read the Constitution, and take it seriously as an instrument by which the rational animal governs himself, some surprising possibilities emerge. This week I want to discuss two of them -- the real meaning of the First Amendment, and the corresponding possibilities for a constitutionally literate chief executive to restore liberty to the American people despite what the Supreme Court says..." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com

Defending the Declaration - By Alan Keyes - November 19, 1999 - "Last week I pointed out that Christians bear a special responsibility to labor in the field of American politics because of the providential connection between the Christian vocation and the fundamental principles of American life. This week I want to lay out in more detail the presentation of moral truth that people of faith should make in our politics..." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Preaching the Declaration - By Alan Keyes - November 12, 1999 - "Do Christians have a vocation in American politics? A frequent answer recently has been that they do not, because politics is not a means to salvation, and anyway politics and religion are separate in America... Christian entry into politics is in fact necessary, at least for those in a position to do so, as part of our effort to fulfill a key element of our Christian vocation, the challenge of loving our neighbor..." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com
Independence Day, Every Day - By Alan Keyes - July 9, 1999 - "No doubt because of the uproar that would have resulted from losing a day of vacation, this year's Fourth of July celebration was moved to July 5. One result was that many people had to think a bit more than usual about the significance and nature of the holiday -- after all, there must be more to it than the Fourth if we can celebrate it on the Fifth..." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com

Tradition without Religion is Empty - By Dr. Andrew Seeley - The Grinch, not Santa, has come to Ventura, and this time he’s more threatening than ever. Stealing Christmas was not enough to satisfy his shrunken heart; this year, the Grinch (played by Pierpont Elementary School Principal Lee Warner) stuffed his sleigh with Halloween, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, in fact, every holiday. No celebrating these festivals at Pierpont. Too disturbing, too distracting, too religious...
McKinley? Why McKinley? - By Richard Ferrier and David Quackenbush - August 6, 1999 - "The source and direction of the amorphous gales filling the sails of the good ship George W. got a little clearer this week. It turns out that the way to understand the George Bush campaign is to spend some time recalling the lessons of what George W's father might have called "the McKinley thing." The Washington Post reported that "the party of Lincoln and Reagan has gone dizzy" over William McKinley, and that the "swami of McKinley Mania" is none other than chief Bush campaign strategist Karl Rove..." - Originally published on WorldNetDaily.com

Drowning in 'Constitutional Rights' - By Mark Trapp - September 2, 2000 - In China last month, a group of government "family planning" officials pulled a newborn baby boy from its family and drowned him in a nearby rice field. This murder was committed in furtherance of China’s "one-child policy." You see, the Chinese government has decreed that families may have only one child each. Apparently, exceeding these government-set limits can result in drastic consequences. Thus, when this peasant woman had the awful temerity to become pregnant with her fourth child, the Chinese government decided that enough was enough...
Deadbeat Dads of the World, Unite! - By Mark Trapp - 2001 - I’ve always been a solid pro-life guy. For me, it is simply a matter of common sense. An unborn baby is undeniably an innocent human life, and should therefore be respected and protected. Furthermore, the Declaration of Independence holds out as a "self-evident" truth the fact that "all men are created equal" and "that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights," chiefly the right to life...
Planet of the Apes? - By Mark Trapp - October 5, 1999 - There is a strange congruence between the views of those who advocate animal rights and those who push for abortion rights. Peter Singer, the newly installed Ira W. DeCamp Profesor of Bioethics at Princeton University’s Center for Human Values, epitomizes the logical outcome of these positions taken to their extreme. Professor Singer and others who feel like him believe that humans have an obligation to treat their pets better than their children. In other words, Cheetah has more inherent worth than Tarzan...
Natural Un-born Killers - By Mark Trapp - February 13, 2001 - What is the difference between a baby an hour before birth, and an hour after? Why can’t a mother decide that her three-day old son, or ten-year old daughter is no longer wanted, and pay someone to kill them? This might be called the post-birth abortion, and it may be the next new constitutional right dreamed up by the Supreme Court...
Addicted to Abortion - By Mark Trapp - May 25, 2001 - Last week in Conway, South Carolina, Regina McKnight was convicted of homicide by child abuse for killing her unborn daughter by smoking crack cocaine while pregnant. She was sentenced to twelve years in prison. Many supporters of abortion are worried that this conviction may place in jeopardy their raison d' etre...
