On May 11, Harrison Butker, a devout Roman Catholic, and a kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, gave a commencement speech at Benedictine College to talk about traditional Catholic values. Butker praised his wife for being a homemaker. This made the wokesters in the media pull out their hair. Although I am not Roman Catholic, I agree with what Butker said about his wife and defend him against his critics. He also has his supporters, including the family of the CEO of his NFL team. We also hear from Bill Maher and Sage Steele.

The Only “Tax” Government Wants to “Repeal”
We have heard the saying that the two most certain things are death and taxes. Rarely do governments repeal any of the many taxes they impose. However, a bunch of politicians in Congress and some in the Senate want to “repeal” a certain “tax” as a matter of social justice. This “tax” is the so-called “pink tax.” Because women may pay more on average for certain products and services than men, activists call this extra expense the “pink tax.” Congress has proposed the “Pink Tax Repeal Act” for the fifth time! Perhaps they will finally “repeal” the “pink tax.” Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey has studies showing female products with higher prices than similar non-female products. Is this because companies like
The Faith of a Christian Mother
My wife Chelsea returns after several weeks to co-host with me again for a Mother’s Day episode. First, we see how current dictionaries define mother. Next, we discuss mothers in various situations and how Mother’s Day may be difficult for some mothers. Finally, we look at the examples of Lois and Eunice (Timothy’s grandmother and mother respectively) and how a Christian mother’s nurturing faith can endure for generations.

Clown World Antisemitism!
Looking at the recent “pro-Palestine” protesters taking over college campuses and setting up tent encampments, I observe their strange an nuanced demands. Many of the protesters don’t even know why they’re protesting! The reason these college kids oppose Israel and “support Palestine” seems not because they’re intrinsically antisemitic, but because they’ve been indoctrinated with cultural Marxism. Cultural Marxism and any other manifestation of Marxism is destructive and degrading. The solution is the gospel of Jesus Christ.
