The Scandal at Christianity Today

Original Article

Call it the Trump curse. Scandals seem to befall his most moralistic critics — from the activists at the Lincoln Project to journalists like Chris Cuomo to the imprisoned lawyer Michael Avenatti. A new addition to this roster of undone Trump critics is Mark Galli, the former editor of Christianity Today. The publication reported last week that according to its investigators he sexually harassed women for years. “Eight women alleged that Galli touched them inappropriately" (snip) In 2019, Galli enjoyed a brief spurt of fame after he called for Trump’s removal from office. Galli said that Trump lacked the “morality” necessary to serve in the presidency

Christianity Today is unreadable. I got a deal on it -two years for $1 or something -and it always wound up in the trash before it was read. The articles always included a pastor of some mainline Christian sect involved in very secular work. Pictures of impoverished but grinning third world children holding school supplies are a mainstay.

Back in the 1970s, I subscribed to CT for a couple of years. It was a decent magazine then, with thought-provoking articles, It's disappointing to hear of its decline, A fish rots from the head sown, it seems.

Whenever one uses the word HYPOCRITES to correctly describe Democrats, be sure to use CAPS, and the largest font size available.

FTA: The publication reports that “Olawoye’s tenure at CT ended after he was arrested by federal agents in a sting operation in 2017. He was attempting to pay for sex with a teenage girl. He ultimately pleaded guilty and was sentenced to three years in prison.” Are CT's readers unaware of what goes on at that organization or do they simply not care?

It seems like whenever Christianesque folk preach about Other People's morality, it's usually a 'Look, squirrel!' sign to distract you from the mote in their own eyes.

There is a definite trend. Get away with it year after year after year. Step out of line, and out comes the proof. Epstein, Maxwell, Weinstein, this jerk, voter fraud .... But for years there was no justice for their victims. Someone at a high level determines when they should get their come-uppance. Not based on right and wrong, but based on political timing of their blackmail. I am sick of getting no justice!!! I am sick to death of the FBI holding back evidence of crimes....especially when children are the victims, and continue to be victimized! I get mad every time some years old crime is finally addressed, as if they are wonderful investigators/lawmen.

A former Google employee filed a class-action lawsuit in a San Jose, California, federal court Friday alleging systemic bias against black employees and a corporate culture preferring white males, Reuters reported. The lawsuit, filed by April Curley, says Google places black employees in lower-level jobs, pays them less, and denies them opportunities to grow at the company, Reuters reported. Specifically, Curley states black people make up only 4.4% of employees and about 3% of leadership, according to Reuters. Curley also said Alphabet Inc., the parent company of Google, required black people to show identification or else face questioning at the Mountain View, California campus, Reuters reported.

Mississippi elementary school assistant principal Toby Price was shown the door last week after, in what the superintendent called “a lack of professionalism,” he read a second-grade class a book called “I Need a New Butt.” The book, written by Dawn McMillan, is a “silly” story about a young boy’s quest to find a new butt because his “has a huge crack.” “Will he choose an armor-plated butt?” the Amazon description asks. “A rocket butt?

The City of West Hollywood is launching a guaranteed income program that excludes straight people. Here are the guidelines as laid out by the city government’s website: Community members who are interested in applying for the West Hollywood Pilot for Guaranteed Income must reside in the City of West Hollywood, be 50 years or older, identify as LGBTQIA, and have an individual income of $41,400 or less. So if you are straight, if you are not a member of LGBTQIA (and I have no idea what half those letters mean), you should not bother to apply “to receive unconditional monthly $1,000 payments from April 2022 through September 2023.”CORRECTION*

The 28-year-old AOC-backed candidate facing a run-off against centrist Democrat Rep. Henry Cuellar had a long-term affair with her former high school teacher, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal. Jessica Cisneros was in a sexual relationship with educator-turned-lawyer John Balli, now 51, and called him 'babe' in a 2011 text professing her love when she was 18 — and he was 41. The ultra-liberal would-be Congresswoman began a sexual relationship with him after he began dating his future second wife Sandra Ramirez in May 2011. But the secret lovers had a painful split when Balli and Ramirez wed in July 2011.

Video of Chasten Buttigieg, the husband of Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, leading a group of children in a modified pledge of allegiance to the gay pride flag went viral late Wednesday. The video was made at Pride Camp, an Iowa summer camp for gay and transgender high school students where Chasten Buttigieg appeared to work as a counselor. "I pledge my heart to the rainbow of the Not So Typical Gay Camp," Chasten Buttigieg and the campers recited. "One camp, full of pride, indivisible, with affirmation and equal rights for all." After reciting the pledge, Chasten Buttigieg and the campers waved gay pride flags and cheered.

A Fortune 500 roofing company celebrated International Women's Day by hosting a talk from a transgender activist who attacked Christians over their "bigotry." Owens Corning, headquartered in Toledo, Ohio, held a company-wide meeting on Tuesday that included a talk from Paula Stone Williams—an influential evangelical pastor turned transgender activist. An individual who viewed her remarks to the construction company told the Washington Free Beacon that Williams said American Christians are the root of anti-trans bigotry. The International Women's Day conversation also featured discussion of the lack of attention paid to nonbinary people in the workplace.

First, and most importantly, virtually no one in the U.S. has got this right, including conservative outlets and pundits. Putin's a thug, but he's an excellent politician and a strong leader. And he's not crazy, as some seem to surmise. He is a cold, calculating, strategic thinker who has disciplined his mind and body for decades. He's a Russia first guy. Think Donald Trump minus all the hot air and Big Macs, and add a willingness to off his enemies. We promised Russia we would not expand NATO when the Soviet Union fell.

The students at Aspen Leaf Preschool, which has multiple locations in the city of San Diego, were grilled by state officials in January in response to a complaint that the school was not following the statewide school mask mandate.

When lawyer Sarah Weddington stood up in the Supreme Court on Oct. 11, 1972, to present the pro-abortion argument in the case of Roe v. Wade, she was legalistically careful in the language she used to describe whom exactly an abortion aborted. She avoided normal human terms like "unborn child" or "baby" -- and, most importantly, "person." She preferred "fetus." Presumably, this was because the Fourteenth Amendment states, "nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Ha-Ha-Ha… Oh, the Biden administration is not happy with Poland. Not happy at all. Earlier this afternoon, Poland called Secretary of State Anthony Blinken’s bluff, over the U.S. claims that Poland was going to send fighter jets into Ukraine. This followed Sunday’s announcement where Poland said the U.S. State Dept was lying. Earlier today, Poland said they would give the U.S. the planes if Blinken and Biden wanted to start World War III, but Poland wasn’t going to help the U.S. create a war with Russia. This put the U.S. in a ‘put up or shut up’ position.

After Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau cracked down on protestors in his own country and sent his henchwoman, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, to freeze the assets of protesting truck drivers and their supporters, he traveled to Brussels to speak to the European Parliament. His theme was the threats to democracy posed by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the growing distrust of governments in the West in the face of economic uncertainty. (Snip) Speaking directly to Trudeau, he added, “Canada, once a symbol of the modern world, has become a symbol of civil rights violations under your quasi-liberal boot in recent months.

DENVER — A 71-year-old Denver man is facing a felony charge after city officials say he made a pickleball court without permission. With prosecution on the table, some believe the punishment doesn't fit the crime. "The whole pickleball community is really saddened and shocked," said Jan Devor, a friend of 71-year-old Arslan Guney and fellow pickleball player. Guney and others use a basketball court at Denver's Central Park Recreation Center for pickleball. Last Monday, the markings on the court had faded, so Guney re-marked them with a Sharpie. Three days later, an arrest warrant for felony criminal mischief was issued for

Joe Biden went to Europe to make speeches during Europe's most serious crisis since World War II, but was mostly focused on his own re-election. That meant some pre-emptive shots at President Trump, who "lost" the election to him, based on various manipulations and cheatings, while Biden's polling approval has gone downhill ever since. But Joe was upbeat: According to CNBC: President Joe Biden said Thursday that he would consider himself “very fortunate” if former President Donald Trump runs against him for a second time in the 2024 election for the White House.
