The Latest Despicable Anti-Israel Lie
By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   03.05.24
According to a quote widely attributed to Winston Churchill, “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.” This is absolutely true when it comes to reporting about Israel, except even more so.

By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   02.19.24
I appreciate those who are willing to think outside the box and find unconventional ways to get people interested in hearing about the Savior. And I appreciate Christians who are willing to invest large amounts of money to reach massive secular audiences.
Polyamory and the ‘Next Sexual Revolution’ That Has Been Here for Years
By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   01.29.24

Woke Won’t Work
By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   01.20.24
For many years, I have been predicting a cultural pushback against the radical left, knowing that, at a certain point, people would say, “Enough is enough...”

The Bud Light and Target boycotts have now become cautionary tales, reminding us that your average American does not share these extremist ideas.

By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   12.29.23
Radicals on the left or right who want to persuade large sectors of the population often adopt a different strategy, cloaking their extremism in more moderate views. Then, after the masses have become sufficiently duped and desensitized, the more extreme goals can easily be introduced.

By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   12.18.23
The recent revelation of just how deeply antisemitism is embedded in some of our nation’s leading universities is certainly quite disturbing. But it is not in the least surprising. That’s why I, for one, am glad to see all this coming to the surface.

It’s ugly. It’s insidious. It’s inexcusable. But, at last, it’s being exposed for the world to see.

By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   11.08.23
What about those under the age of 18? What do they think about Israel? A recent article in the Jerusalem Post explained that, “Around five dozen individuals, some associated with Hamas and collectively boasting more than 100 million social media followers, have been waging a propaganda campaign against Israel on various social media platforms since the start of the Swords of Iron war on October 7.”
The Jewish Community is Waking Up to the Ugly Realities of the Left
By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   11.01.23
The October 7th Islamic terrorist attack in Israel that resulted in 1,400 dead Jews, many who were tortured and massacred in the most gruesome way imaginable, would serve as a wake up call for Jewish voters here in America and around the world. The pro-Palestinians, pro-Hamas rallies that have followed have only revealed how antisemitism is alive and well. How can this important voting block continue to support political allies of these violent haters?

As news was breaking on Saturday and we were learning about the atrocities that were taking place in Israel, I immediately wrote an article. But even as I was writing, the news kept getting worse. How could this be happening? It turns out that things were far worse than we could have imagined. Here are some open, honest, raw reflections on the last 48 hours.
The War on Our Children is Even Worse Than We Know
By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   09.11.23
I’m going to omit a few words from the opening sentence of an article posted by the UK’s Christian Voice in order to drill home a point. The first sentence reads, “Parents in Hull have withdrawn their . . . daughter from . . . school over inappropriate content in Relationships and Sex Education.”

Why Are SO Many People SO Angry?
By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   07.22.23
If there is one emotion that has risen to the surface in recent years in America, it is anger. There is anger on the streets. There is anger online. There is anger wherever we turn. What is the source of it?
We Can Thank Gay Activists for Today’s Epidemic of Trans Confusion
By Dr. Michael L. Brown   |   07.13.23
It is increasingly common for well-known LGB leaders to separate themselves from today’s ever-increasing transanity.

The tennis great Martina Navratilova, herself an out and proud lesbian, has spoken forcefully against biological males competing against females. And the influential gay blogger Andrew Sullivan recently devoted a lengthy piece to this subject titled “The Queers Versus the Homosexuals.”

Last week the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark decision that Lorie Smith, a Colorado-based Christian graphic artist and web designer, did not have to create content that violated her beliefs. In response, the editor-in-chief of Mother Jones, tweeted, “perhaps gay stylists, designers, caterers, and planners should start withholding services from Christian conservatives and see where that goes.”
