Leroy Huizenga on the “Gospel of Jesus’ Wife” :
“Oh no,” I thought, “here we go again.” News of a long lost textual fragment which many will think could undermine traditional Christian faith is breaking, the latest in a long line of interesting discoveries sensationalized by the media into something supposedly subversive of traditional Christian faith. Whether the frenzy concerned the claims of The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross , the Secret Gospel of Mark , St. James’ supposed ossuary, or the Gospel of Judas , when the smoke cleared, traditional Christianity was left standing.
Also today, Austin Ruse on how Planned Parenthood outwitted Komen for the Cure :
On the other side stood the highly controversial group Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the country run by the equally striking Texan Cecile Richards, longtime darling of the farther left.
