    By: Ed Young | - If you ever want to add some action to your conversation on the golf course, at work or while having lunch with some friends, kind of casually mention that even though there is about a billion Muslims living today, even though there is about 700 million Hindus and 300 million Buddhists, and a couple of atheists, not a single one will ever go to heaven.

  • Will You Watch Al Sharpton's New Show On Satellite Tv?
    By: Adam Hampton | - MSNBC is a strange network. Named for the two companies that originally put the network together, namely Microsoft and NBC, the network has long struggled to find an identity relative to its competitor 24-hour cable news networks, Fox News and CNN.

    The Need for an Uncompromising and Vigilant Witness Against Arminianism

    By William MacLean

    By: Alfred Ras | - Mormons are so different from true Christianity - evangelical Protestantism. Why do they say they are Christian?

    Although there are many sectors of religion that don't believe in the Mormonism doctrine it would seem that the biggest fight comes from those that are classed as Protestants especially if they happen to be evangelists. The argument here from the Mormons is that this particular group are of the belief that anything that is outside their scope of doctrine is not Christian.
