Editorial: Gambling with Eternal Destiny

Tulsa Beacon

It’s Puzzling that “Highly Educated” Leaders of Society, such as Government officials and School Administrators are capable of being so Foolish as to “Gamble with their Eternal Destiny”.  These same Individuals would not drive down the street in a Fancy Sports Car which was “Uninsured”, yet they casually dismiss the proof of God that is…

Editorial: Creepy Television Commercials

As Christians we acknowledge God and view His creation as wonderful, which is why children are considered Precious.  Yet Liberals admit to being total Heathens who view every aspect of society From a demented “sexorgy Perspective”, so when these “Sick Minded” Individuals exploit children on Television Commercials it comes across as “creepy”.  Because there is…

Editorial: OETA will be just fine

Tulsa Beacon

Gov. Kevin Stitt’s decision to veto reauthorization of the Oklahoma Educational Television Authority (OETA), the state’s Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) entity, has critics acting as though the sky is falling and that Big Bird is on his last legs. Neither view is true. Big Bird will still be around even without Oklahoma government funding, as…

Letter: Progressives overstating their popularity

Tulsa Beacon

There is a current narrative in the state that our politics are hateful and are an inhibiting factor to our progress as a state. The claim is generally that people do not want to come here because we are not welcoming to all or have a mean-spirited culture. Frankly, the numbers just do not back…

Editorial: To stop school porn, enact school choice

There are too many books like these, but just one more example is “Lawn Boy.” According to a media report, the book “contains graphic descriptions of sex between men and children.” It also was featured in the School Library Journal and given the same award as “Gender Queer” by the American Library Association.
