Fueling the Fire: How Pornography Impacts Mental Health

Wildfires are becoming more frequent, more intense, and more destructive each year.

Crackdown on Illegal Immigration Protects Children

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents released no illegal immigrants into America last month — an exponential decease from the 62,000 released in May 2024.

The sexual revolution has been a disaster. More than fifty years since the so-called Summer of Love, the victims are all around us: Unborn babies who never got to see the light of day. Kids who grew up without a father. Women who were used and abused by men for sexual gratification and then abandoned, left to fend for themselves. Men who are addicted to pornography and unable or at least unwilling to commit, thus missing out on one of life’s greatest joys: marriage and fatherhood. And now a cohort of kids who don’t feel comfortable as boys or girls, with irreversible damage being inflicted on their bodies and minds by adults who should know better. The sexual revolution is built on a series of lies about the human person. And there are human costs to getting human nature wrong.
