Editorial: Earthquakes decline in Oklahoma

Tulsa Beacon

For three straight years, the number of Oklahoma earthquakes of a magnitude of 3.0 or higher has declined and that trend has continued in 2019. While Californians nervously await the next shock, Oklahomans are close to breathing a sigh of relief. The numbers keep dropping and the quakes are lessening in intensity. Part of the…

Letter: Appalling Democrat debates

Tulsa Beacon

There are two words that best describes the two debates we’ve witnessed so far . . . appalled and bewildered. Never would I have imagined that twenty Democrat presidential candidates would stand together and make such outlandish statements to the American people – promising, that if they are elected, they will actually implement these horrendous…

Editorial: The court ruled correctly

Tulsa Beacon

Sometimes common sense prevails in the court system. In June, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a World War I-era cross in Maryland did not violate the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. The justices voted 7-2 against efforts by atheist and secularist groups who for years have tried to wipe any trace of Christianity…

Editorial: The court ruled incorrectly

Tulsa Beacon

After the U.S. Supreme Court legalized “homosexual marriage,” it was inevitable that forced acceptance of these perverted relationships would negatively impact children. Now, the liberal Oklahoma Supreme Court has made another decision in line with the Homosexual Agenda that grants special rights to nonbiological homosexual parents who get divorced. Acting on a case from Tulsa,…

Letter: The answer to America’s calamities

Tulsa Beacon

I’ve been thinking about 2 Chronicles 7:14 for many months and about two problem areas for our country.  One, too many people dying every year before they should. Two, our country going broke spending more than we take in year after year.  I think its time for 2 Chronicles 7:14 – God’s advice to Solomon…

Letter: Wake up, America

Tulsa Beacon

Socialist/Independent/Democrat Bernie Sanders announced his plan to cancel $1.6 trillion in student loans and pay for it with a tax on Wall Street.  Sanders says his plan would wipe out college debt for 45 million Americans. If you are one of those 45 million, that might entice you to vote for Bernie.  But what about…

Editorial: The good and bad in America

Tulsa Beacon

As America celebrates our 243rd birthday, there is cause for thanks and for concern. Thanks to President Trump and his policies, our economy is humming. Unemployment – particularly among minorities – is at record lows. Trump is replacing liberal federal judges with constitutional conservatives. He’s rebuilding our military and getting tough on bad trade agreements….

Editorial: Dangerous Democrat homosexual

Tulsa Beacon

Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana, may be the Democrat candidate for president that poses the greatest threat to American culture. Buttigieg is a homosexual and he is an outspoken advocate of the Homosexual Agenda. Last year, he married another man. Buttigieg blames God for making him a homosexual. Buttigieg claims he had no…

Editorial: Politicizing of the OK City Zoo

Tulsa Beacon

Add the Oklahoma City Zoo and Botanical Garden to the list of public entities promoting homosexuality in June. On June 20, the zoo hosted “Pride Date Night” – an invitation for men to date men and women to date women. It was billed as “particularly welcoming and celebrating inclusivity of Oklahoma’s LGBTQ community.” Of course,…
