Not Just Another Day in February

February 28, 2013 | Tal Davis

Today is Thursday, February 28^th, 2013. It is in most ways like any Thursday in winter except that it has a few unusual points of remembrance for people like us who are interested in Worldview issues. Most notable, of course, is that today Pope Benedict XVI stepped down…

January 1, 2013 | Tal Davis

Here is my list of the most important events of 2012 in America from a worldview perspective. These are the ones that, in my humble opinion, had the greatest impact on the moral, philosophical, and spiritual lives of our nation and its future direction (for good, bad, or neutral).

“The Life of Pi”- Take Your Kids, but Don’t Just Leave it There!

December 3, 2012 | Tal Davis

My wife and I just got home from seeing Ang Lee’s incredible new film “The Life of Pi.” I encourage you to see it and take your older children and teens (about age 10 and up – it is rated PG). I can honestly say that it is the most…

October 12, 2012 | Tal Davis

More Trouble for Scientology

October 4, 2012 | Tal Davis

Legal and image problems continue to pile up on the leaders of the Church of Scientology International (CSI). Two years ago several of its top leaders defected claiming that CSI CEO David Miscavige was an authoritarian dictator who ruled the organization with an iron hand. This past year has…

September 27, 2012 | Tal Davis

Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has done it again. He has warned the world that an Islamic Messiah is coming. On September 26 he again stood at the podium of the United Nations in New York to tell a worldwide audience that this current world order will soon be over and…

A few years ago my college alma-mater conducted a public conference extolling what the organizers saw as the scientific certainty of Darwinian Evolution (DE) and the foolishness of creationism.
