Commentary by Donald DeMarco The Interim It is a rare event when the secular press carries a Christian conversion story. Such an event, therefore, should be given additional attention.
On Jan. 27, Canada’s National Post carried Dawn Eden’s conversion story under the slightly indelicate title, “Between my sheets, a lonely world.” It is both heartwarming and heartrending.

Hilary White Reporter Editor’s note: Due to the author’s overarching desire to re-establish to the postmodern West such qualities as morality, civility and the classical modes of rhetoric, she has replaced in the following all quoted uses of the word under discussion with “eff,” with appropriate grammatical derivations thereof.
That “eff,” “effing,” “eff off,” “eff about” and “eff up” have entered the general lexicon through the popular entertainment ... (Continue reading)

The international socialist movement is using homosexuals as an excuse to further a socialist, anti-religious agenda. What better way to muzzle Christians than to pass “hate” legislation limiting churches’ freedom of ... (Continue reading)
