She was once a Muslim, now a Christian convert. Listen as she takes one of the favorite arguments used by Muslims to trip up Christians, and completely dismantles it with God's Word. Do you know Scripture well enough to combat the lies?

Enoch Burke
Enoch Burke@EnochBurke·
BREAKING: Enoch Burke’s mother and sister arrested and jailed Martina and Ammi Burke were arrested by Gardaí today at Castlerea Prison after visiting jailed schoolteacher Enoch Burke, their son and brother. Judge Brian Cregan sentenced them to two weeks in prison after they spoke out against his lies and unlawful actions in the case of Enoch Burke. Martina and Ammi Burke had been teaching in Castlebar this morning before travelling to Castlerea for their scheduled visit at 2.15pm. As they left the prison after concluding the visit, Gardaí were waiting outside to arrest them. Lies have been told from the bench since September 2022 when Enoch Burke was first taken from his teaching post at Wilson’s Hospital School and thrown into a jail cell. He refused to call a student by a new name and the “they” pronoun. He was subsequently suspended and has now spent over 600 days in prison. Ireland’s church leaders have maintained a treacherous silence on this issue. Archbishops Eamon Martin and John McDowell speak frequently about battlefields far away - Gaza, Ukraine, the Middle East - but are silent on the battlefields in the schools of Ireland, on their own doorstep. Children in the classroom are being educated in every form of sexual perversion. Martina and Ammi Burke have now been sent to Mountjoy Women’s Prison because they refused to be silent in the face of gross injustice from the bench. Parents, rise up and speak out for your sons and your daughters.

@gurauki @TheLaurenChen I do think COVID and enforced out-of-office work allowed Millennials and Gen Z to move anywhere they want... when they got married and had kids in a place they still didn't know anyone, when they met their spouse on-line... well, you raise the kids you have alone.

@dvdrowe @TheLaurenChen Worth asking why that is. Like, every effect we see, especially at a mass level, has an incentive (or more than one).

Boomers don't want to hear this, but one of the (many) reasons why my generation isn't having as many kids? A lot of millennials feel they can't depend on their parents for help the way they saw their own grandparents pitch in when they were growing up

Dr. Rhonda Patrick@foundmyfitness·
Success doesn’t truly make us happier. Why? Our neurobiology is wired for progress, not arrival. The dopamine system rewards the pursuit. Once a goal is reached, the brain resets and the target moves. It’s what @arthurbrooks calls the “striver’s curse.” You work relentlessly toward a goal believing it will bring lasting satisfaction, but when you get there, the feeling fades quickly. The trap is thinking the answer is more (more success, money, weight loss, etc). A better framework: Satisfaction = what you have ÷ what you want. Most people try to increase the numerator. But the more powerful lever is reducing the denominator (wanting less).

@foundmyfitness @arthurbrooks This is ancient wisdom: "Godliness with contentment is great gain. We brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that." Apostle Paul

The Archbishop of Canterbury has said that legalising DIY abortions up to the point of birth is “legally, morally, and practically complex”. It isn’t ‘complex’. It’s WRONG. Killing a 39 week old baby is morally indefensible. No Christian should find that hard to say.

It is not decent to twist scripture to lead others to hell. It is not decent to claim whiteness itself is like a virus. It is not decent to use Christ’s conception as a justification for abortion. It is not decent to reduce women to “neighbors with uteruses.” Only if you have been radicalized by your critics can you land at this position.
David French@DavidAFrench

If the primary American divide is between right and left, then Talarico isn’t that interesting. There’s a long history of progressive religious activism in the United States, just as there is a long history of conservative religious activism. Yet if the primary American divide is between decent and indecent, then the equation changes. Talarico shines. nytimes.com/2026/03/08/opi…

In case you think that having an established church will make things better....
Andy Webb@PastorAndyWebb

"A Christian woman, Isabel Vaughan-Spruce, has pleaded not guilty after being charged for silently praying near an abortion clinic in Birmingham, England. Despite being previously exonerated for the exact same act, she found herself back in court, raising serious questions about the protection of faith and conscience in public spaces. ‘I’ve simply stood inside a buffer zone and silently prayed, meaning my thoughts were turned towards God,’ Isabel stated. She remains firm that her behavior has not changed; she held no posters, distributed no leaflets, and did not speak a single word to anyone. Yet, she is being treated like a criminal for the internal state of her mind, calling this a clear case of ‘viewpoint discrimination.’ From a Christian perspective, this case highlights a troubling trend where even a quiet heart turned toward the Lord is treated as an offense. Isabel’s defense is simple yet profound: ‘Standing is not a crime, silence is not a crime, thinking is not a crime.’ This trial is a critical reminder of the need to protect the fundamental right of every believer to pray without fear of government intervention. As this legal battle continues, there is a global call for prayer that freedom will be upheld in the UK. The church is encouraged to stand with those who refuse to let their faith be silenced, trusting that the right to seek God—even in total silence—must remain a protected liberty for all."

Janet Murray@jan_murray·
I didn’t really get the problem with gender ideology at first. I’m liberal-minded about most things. 'Live and let' live has generally been my motto. I believed inclusion mattered. I believed in being kind. In not using language that might upset people unnecessarily. I knew people who identified as transgender. I knew some adults chose medical treatments or surgery to resemble the opposite sex. That seemed to me a matter of personal autonomy. Adults can do what they wish with their own bodies. What I hadn’t realised - and I feel slightly embarrassed admitting this - was that I’d misunderstood what was being claimed. I thought “transgender” meant a form of self-expression. A man who liked wearing women’s clothes. Someone changing their name. Gender non-conformity. What I hadn’t grasped was that some activists weren’t just asking for tolerance. They were asserting that declaring yourself the opposite sex made you the opposite sex. Not metaphorically. Literally. And that this wasn’t just cultural. It had legal consequences. - It meant men who said they were women were demanding access to women’s sports, prisons, domestic violence shelters and hospital wards - It meant the rewriting of healthcare language - “pregnant people”, “bodies with cervixes” - to avoid saying “women” - It meant children struggling with identity being affirmed onto medical pathways with lifelong implications And also redefining same-sex attraction. Lesbians called 'bigoted' for not wanting relationships with men who identify as women. Gay men accused of prejudice for saying they're not attracted to female bodies. None of which made any sense. But I'd also overlooked how far this had travelled - into HR policies, professional bodies, schools, political parties and public institutions. And how easily disagreement was framed as cruelty. Speaking up felt risky - because others were being publicly humiliated for doing so. None of this is abstract. Because sex is the basis on which safeguarding works. On which data is collected. On which cancer screening programmes run. On which fair sport and single-sex spaces depend. It’s written into law - including the Equality Act - because material differences matter. If sex becomes a 'feeling' rather than a biological category, those protections become unstable. And once reality becomes negotiable, everything does. Once I saw it, I couldn’t unsee it. But I needed to be sure. So I read. Books, research papers, policy documents. When I finally spoke publicly, there was backlash from all directions. Many women thanked me - both quietly and publicly. But some feminists criticised me for speaking too late. Others were angry about a past interview I’d done with the parent of a transgender person, accusing me of promoting harm. It takes courage to change your mind publicly. It takes courage to speak when you know your reputation, friendships or livelihood may be on the line - when you know raising your voice could strain, or even end, relationships you value. Once I understood what was at stake, staying silent was no longer an option. I lost my livelihood simply for saying I didn’t like the phrase “pregnant people”. That alone tells you something is deeply wrong. It shouldn’t be this way. I will never judge any woman for when she finds her voice. Because every voice adds value - whenever it is raised. And I know how persuasive this ideology can be. I know how easily it bypassed me. And I know how much courage it takes to admit, publicly, that you got something wrong.

@dandarling As a Jet fan, I have to say, the burden of rejection falls less on "early Sam" who saw ghosts with the Jets, and a lot more on the Panthers and Vikings who rejected him after he was actually good.

You have to be happy for Sam Darnold. First round pick, considered a bust, rejected by the Jets, comes all the way back to be a Super Bowl QB. Rooting for them to win. Sorry Pats.
