By Abdul Masih – One day, Abu Mohammad al-Julani was an al Qaeda-linked terrorist with a $10M bounty on his head from the U.S. State Department. The next day, it was dropped. How did he turn from terrorist to statesman in the good graces of the U.S.? He took over Syria, and he put on a suit. In one of the last acts of the Biden presidency, his status was changed. Ever believers in the essential goodness of the human heart, liberal politicians and diplomats said he had “evolved” beyond his origins with al Qaeda. They were crossing their fingers…
By Abdul Masih – Capitalizing on the pendulum swing towards faith in America, Disney just released its first animated Christian character in 20 years, but the series was modified from another trans acceptance story and leaves many questioning: Is this Christian? “Win or Lose” from the Pixar department features Laura who prays and pleases God on her dad’s baseball team. It originally was a story about Kai who comes out as trans to his/her dad, but Disney scrapped the LGBTQ agenda and turned it into a Christian plot. Neither Christians nor LGBTQ seem pleased with refurbished cartoon series – LGBTQ…
By Abdul Masih – Weiming Chen was doing what artists do, sculpting nudes, when he saw (he was in New Zealand) the Chinese tanks kill hundreds of democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square in 1989. “I should not care just about the beautiful woman’s body,” he thought to himself at the time. “I should care for human rights. If China no human rights, no freedom. You’re an artist, you’re free. I came to America and built this Liberty Sculpture Park.” On 36 acres on Interstate 15 near Barstow, CA, Liberty Sculpture Park features an ever-increasing number of sculptures that memorialize the…
By Abdul Masih – The biography of Muhammad comes from Germany in 1860, not from Islamic dynasties like Iraq or Saudi Arabia. Heinrich Ferdinand Wustenfeld compiled and narrated his life between 1858 and 1860 based on manuscripts from the 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th centuries. Most of his material came from a document from the 16ht century. “This German scholar gives us the Muhammad that everybody is following,” says Dr. Jay Smith on a CIRA International youtube video. “This Muhammad is not from Ibn Hisham at all.” Muslims believe that Ibn Hisham collated the life story of Islam’s revered prophet, but…
By Abdul Masih – She’d live in a tent with her kids before she helped the killing of innocent babies. “I came home saying, I’m not going to do that, so if we have to live in a tent, we will,” Sue Thayor said. What would make the Storm City, Iowa, mom leave her steady, well-paid job with benefits after 17 years? Well, it wasn’t the ideal gig for a woman who believed abortion is murder. Sue was the manager of the local Planned Parenthood. “They must’ve been really desperate to give me the job,” she explains. She made it…
By Miguel Gutierrez— Even under the influence of psychedelic mushrooms, Justin Kaniaupio Crespo felt there was a glass ceiling keeping him from an even more spiritual experience, so he dabbled in the occult. “I see these gurus, these monks and I’m like, Oh man it seems like they understand the place, they’re at peace,” Justin says on a Delafe video. “I was like that’s really cool and maybe I’ll be a monk one day.” Today Justin Kaniaupio Crespo, a native Hawaiian, is back to Jesus. The church hurt has been forgotten and forgiven. The deep dive into drugs and the…
By Abdul Masih — Imagine a world where childhood, that sacred realm of scraped knees and secret forts, has been quietly hijacked—not by overbearing adults or dystopian overlords, but by a glowing rectangle small enough to fit in your pocket. This is the world Jonathan Haidt unveils in The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness. Like a detective piecing together a sprawling mystery, Haidt traces the threads of a seismic shift in how kids grow up—a shift that began around 2010 and has left an entire generation more fragile, more isolated,…
