State Farm Needs a PR Insurance Policy

Turns out, customers aren't the only ones upset with State Farm's transgender book drive. Employees, who've been on the receiving end of hundreds of local complaints, are making their own phone calls to corporate -- furious that the company would drag its good name into the mud, and them with it. "We're an insurance company who's known to be conservative," one Midwest agent told RedState. "That is why this is so shocking. I can assure you (I'm on a private Facebook page for agents at only 4,000 members) that 99 percent of us are beyond [outraged]."

What Can We Do to Make Schools Safer?
|
|
|
At a press conference on Friday, the nation learned that a mass shooter gained access to Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, when a teacher propped open a school door. That's a fitting metaphor for school safety nationwide, where the cracks in our social fabric and lax security measures allow disturbed, disgruntled, and mentally ill people to victimize our most vulnerable citizens. But two experts in the field say that Washington's hyper-partisan focus on passing more gun control laws will only further endanger our children, while ignoring known solutions that would improve school security.

Spiritual Shepherds not Flocking to Word of God

New analysis from Arizona Christian University's Cultural Research Center reveals a "particularly shocking" absence of biblical worldview among pastors of evangelical churches, "because evangelical churches, by definition, believe that the Bible is God's true and reliable words to humanity." The latest release of the American Worldview Inventory, conducted in February and March of this year, revealed that 37% of Christian pastors held a biblical worldview, and the numbers are only slightly better among pastors of evangelical (51%) and independent or non-denominational (57%) churches. "With barely half of evangelical pastors possessing a biblical worldview -- and that number continuing to decline -- attending what may be considered an 'evangelical' church no longer ensures a pastoral staff that has a high view of the scriptures," said George Barna, Senior Research Fellow with FRC's Center for Biblical Worldview.
