“The Chinese government propaganda newspaper Global Times recently predicted a “total collapse of the box office” for Hollywood in the near future as a result of its movies’ “repetitive” plots and “dated” American values.”
(David Ng – Breitbart) Hollywood’s losing streak in China continued in 2023, with no American movies cracking the country’s top ten list of the highest grossing titles of the year.
The pitiful results come despite Disney CEO Bob Iger’s aggressive efforts to get Beijing to approve more Hollywood titles for domestic release…. Continue reading
“Despite being a prominent figure at The Gospel Coalition, McCracken’s annual “Best Movies” lists are often filled with content that blatantly contradicts biblical teachings on sexuality and reverence for God. His writings, rather than steering Christians towards edifying content, plunge them into a world of salacious, risqué, and even blasphemous material under the guise of cultural engagement and artistic appreciation.”

(Chris Queen – PJ Media) Every day on the calendar has those “special days” — commemorations or observations of one thing or another. Most of them are silly, like International Sweatpants Day (Jan. 21) and National Answer Your Cat’s Questions Day (Jan. 22), but some have actual significance.
“Hamas has made it clear they want a one-state solution, and will not rest until every Jew and Israel are gone. Whenever a terrorist kills Israelis, their family gets paid for life by the Palestinian Authority.”
All our enemies are right now calculating how best to use their gift of the next 12 months from a non-compos-mentis president and his neo-socialist team that either believes the U.S. is at fault for much of the world’s pathologies or is too terrified to do anything about them.”
“Rather than upholding biblical truth and discerning the times, these leaders and pastors have become willful participants in a larger socialist agenda, championing a cause that undermines the integrity of both Scripture and national sovereignty. This silly Challenge put out by these religious socialist influencers stands as a disturbing epitome of propaganda, skillfully exploiting Christian compassion to propel a leftist, Marxist agenda in the Church.”
“Transgender ideology is a facet of political ideology disguised as a civil rights movement for a mental health struggle. In fact, President Joe Biden is treating transgenderism as a civil rights issue. That political ideology is a toxic mixture of radical freedom for all and cultural Marxism. That radical freedom is a way of justifying moral relativism — doing whatever you want because it seems right in your own eyes.” 
“Today, as we celebrate the life and legacy of MLK, I’m unsure how the civil rights movement genuinely used the church. You judge a tree by its fruit. Today, the black church is far more obedient to political doctrine than scriptural doctrine and far more interested in political defiance than spiritual repentance.” – Jason Whitlock
“The consequences of inaction are dire,” they say, citing: “crime, fires, the re-emergence of medieval diseases, environmental harm, and record levels of drug overdoses and deaths on public streets.”
“Phase two of the program uses seminars produced by the University of Rhode Island’s Media Education Lab that “train educators across the country on how to divert students away from conservative ideas and media sources skeptical of the administration’s agenda.” American taxpayers gave an initial $700,000 to fund the project used to destroy your freedom of conscience.”] 
Posting this piece brings me no joy. Alistair Begg is one of my favorite preachers. As a reporter, my job is to accurately report news that some CRN subscribers may find disturbing, at times heartbreaking. With this in mind, here’s an excerpt followed by the article. There’s a video posted on the site:
[When] the progressive movement cannot enact its unpopular agendas…it must scare the people silly and gin up chaos to destroy its perceived enemies—any crisis it can.
“Joe Biden loyalist, Tony Blinken, who is now the disastrous Secretary of State, and former Acting CIA Chief Mike Morrell used this false information by the FBI to write an open letter alleging that the Hunter Biden laptop had all the hallmarks of a Russian disinformation campaign. Fifty-one intelligence community members signed their names to the letter. They lied to give Joe Biden a talking point in a debate with Donald Trump.” 
(The Dissenter) The Roman Catholic pope recently made remarks that demonstrate that the Catholic Church is as committed to sound doctrine as a mirage is to offering water in the desert. As reported by “
…England’s NHS stopped “routinely” prescribing the drugs after a “damning review” found that the drugs could “interrupt the process of the brain maturing.”
