Peter Boghossian on Woke Education: ‘No Other Alternative Than to Defund the System:

Boghossian is best known for co-authoring a series of satirical papers and publishing them in peer-reviewed academic journals to reveal how likely fake research would be accepted as legitimate scholarship, so long as it fit in the woke narrative.

Mayor of North Las Vegas Switches From Democrat to Republican: Epoch Times

Challenges To Fellowship With The Lord: Dr. Jeff Mayfield

The things that hinder our fellowship with the Lord may be socially respectable or shameful distractions. Dr. Mayfield uses the following three examples: politics, finances and pornography.
