On the Front Lines of the Culture Wars

Like something out of a Disney movie, here is a video of a wild deer that stepped into the gap when a male Canadian goose was killed — leaving its mate alone, a mama goose tending their nest full of unhatched goslings. Ordinarily, it is the role of the gander — the father goose — to…

Here’s the story of Jonah and the Whale as told by a very articulate little cutie.  From this second grader’s perspective, Ninevah’s sin was they didn’t care about each other.
