Yesterday I saw a talking head on television waxing indignant over Ahmadinejad’s visit to New York. One of the things he was angry about was the fact this man, a terrorist, engaged in killing American soldiers, was able to come over here and say his bit. We have to be careful not to let the …
Civilians Fair Game
“Prophet Muhammad was once asked if it was OK to kill women and children of those who were polytheistic . . . or infidels. He said, ‘I consider them as of their parents.’ In other words, if the parents were infidels, then it was permissible to kill their children” (Mark Gabriel, Islam and Terrorism, p. …
When Conscience Cannot be Denied
“It is a little like watching the Texas Chainsaw Massacre over and over again and watching the hippies drawn inexorably to their doom in the uncanny house . . . that has become not a place of refuge, but of slaughter instead. That house is our culture. We are all being led into that house …

It Took a Long Time for Kinkos to Get the Image Onto that Marshmallow
We have recently been discovering that a lot of people don’t even know that Credenda comes out in an audio version. In part you might not know because you don’t get Canon’s e-newsletter, and if that is the case then you also missed out on a big giveaway. The e-postcard they sent to subscribers the …

“The most dangerous thing a Muslim can do is leave Islam—no matter what the reason” (Mark Gabriel, Islam and Terrorism, p. 59).
And They Think That We Have a Thing About Sex
“Ripley then takes off her clothes, and as soon as she does so the Alien reappears. Here we have the truncated causality of the horror genre. As in The Bacchae, The Blob, Blood Feast, Slumber Party Massacre, and countless other examples, as soon as an attractive young woman removes any article of clothing a monster …
