Late last monththe United States introduced a U.N. resolution condemning Russia’s de facto seizure of Crimea from Ukraine. As expected, the resolution passed the General Assembly easily.

The Bible often gets a bad rap for being anti-women. The accusation must be made by those who haven’t spent a lot of time in the Scripture. As we celebrate International Women’s Day this week, it is high time we celebrate some of the remarkable women of the Bible. Recently, …

In his FoxNews.com op-ed “The state of technology – Obama must admit America is a nation of innovators,” it is peculiar to see Steve Forbes making a baseless attack on MPEG LA once again. MPEG LA is an example of what is right, not what is wrong. Our record of …
