Wow.
Toyota released a pro-life ad highlighting Lauren Woolstencroft—born without legs—who went on to defy the odds and become an 8X Paralympic gold medalist.
Most babies with disabilities are aborted.
This is one of the best commercials I’ve ever seen.
Christians in Nigeria never carried out massacres, never dug tunnels, never fired rockets, never took hostages, never started a war. They are simply a peaceful community, half of Nigeria’s population, who only wanted to live in peace. Yet they are relentlessly attacked by Islamic groups: their churches burned, their women and children slaughtered, their men massacred simply for being Christians.
And what is the response of the world? Silence.
World leaders in Europe stand with those who massacre, with those who hold hostages—they rush to recognize a state for them. But when it comes to Nigerian Christians? Not a word. No speeches at the UN. No condemnation of Nigeria for failing to protect its Christians. No ICJ cases. No international fundraisers.
Where is the President of Colombia? Where is Brazil’s leadership? Where is Emmanuel Macron @EmmanuelMacron or Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer? Why do we never hear them speak about Nigerian Christians? Why is there no aid sent to them? Why no protests? Why no university demonstrations? Why no global outrage, no media coverage, no flotilla sailing for the persecuted Christians of Nigeria?
A great mentor once told me that the greatest insights usually come from noticing what's not there.
You know what I notice? Never once since Charlie Kirk was assassinated have I worried about the possibility of riots, burning of cities, "autonomous zones" or violence in the streets.
And this is for a decent family man murdered in cold blood for his political opinions.
In the summer of 2020, all of those things happened across America and many other countries too. Over a career criminal who died in a police interaction with a negligent and careless cop. Politicians kneeled, media organisations held minutes of silence and billions were given to BLM in the very days that their supporters burned down entire districts of American cities and killed people to "fight racism". To this day there has not been a shred of evidence presented that George Floyd's death had anything to do with racism.
So no, I don't believe either party has a monopoly on political violence. We've seen left wing politicians attacked and killed too. It's just as awful and just as wrong.
But I also think it's worth noticing what's not there and thinking about why.

Let’s remember this. It’s what Charlie believed.
I have no words. I don't understand how to live in a world where someone would take a father away from his young children for having a different opinion.
Being a woman isn't an essence, it's a material, provable fact. I'm not a female human being because society or history made me one, or because I picked the 'woman' category on some metaphysical spreadsheet. I'm a woman because I was born with the equipment to produce large gametes.
My biology isn't my destiny unless I'm unfortunate enough to live in a society like Afghanistan where my femaleness is punished from birth. My biology does, however, mean I am likely to have experiences no man ever will.
If I'd been raised by robots in outer space who had no understanding of social categories or gendered norms I'd still provably be a woman, not a man. I'd certainly suffer some deprivation from not associating with other humans, but on the upside, I'd never have to listen to pseudo-intellectual drivel like this.
Munira Wilson (@munirawilson): If this Bill passes, we will be in a position where assisted suicide is available universally on the NHS, but access to good palliative care is not. That is not giving people a genuine choice at the end of their lives.
This is what a 3rd trimester abortion looks like.
Baby Christopher X was estimated 28-32 weeks at the time of his abortion.
His body was found in a medical waste bin outside of a D.C. abortion business.
You cannot look at this and still claim abortion doesn't kill a child.
‘Today, you will be with me in paradise’
As Yeshua hangs dying on the cross, one of the two criminals at his side recognises the coming of his kingdom.
A criminal sees the truth.
A King offers mercy.
