Among other examples, Bork noted a [...]

On the difference between bogus and science – a reply to Sirpa Pietikäinen and Sophie in ‘t Veld

Why can’t those nasty conservatives not just be reverently silent when the EU Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) solemnly pontificates on “LGBT discrimination”?

This has aroused the anger and [...]

Is there any country in the world where a prominent politician could publicly boast his sexual experiences with children aged 6 years and less, and still stay in office?

Same-sex “marriage” in Ireland?

The constitutional convention backs the extension of marriage rights to same-sex couples, the Irish Times reports. With this decision, Ireland seems set to join the fold of countries that want to destroy the institution of marriage by re-defining it beyond recognisability.

PolitiFacts Pants on Fire

Yesterday, the Providence Journal published a PolitiFact editorial claiming that my use of one word–”shattered”–in the Rhode Island marriage hearings last month rendered my statement to the committee entirely “false” and me imprudent. But to make their claim, the editors constructed and attacked a straw man argument which ignored the context of my statement–context I provided [...]

Gay Marriage, Equality and War

As the Justices ask themselves whether or not homosexual couples are constitutionally entitled to marriage next week, they will certainly ponder how the United States Constitution came to be and how we have succeeded as a nation.

UK: Lords make fun of “gay marriage”

Had the woman been a man… Comments on the ECHR ruling of X and others v. Austria on homosexual adoption and the abandonment of natural law.
