This pastor, Otha Turnbough, says that people keep coming to his church because he believes in and teaches all this stuff about numerology and demon possession. And he’s partly right.

And not for good reason. In fact, these patently false teachers need to be exposed immediately for who and what they are—blasphemers—and that’s what I plan to do. There is a lot […]

It’s good for research, and it’s good for helping work through problems. Like any kind of technology, it’s a neutral tool that can be used for either good or evil. Part of the problem with AI is the irrational fear that people have of it. AI itself is not actually “intelligent” […]

And worse, who would have guessed that the majority of people in James Talarico’s church identify as agnostic or atheist? Really, anyone with a modicum of common sense. That’s exactly what this “pastor,” the “Reverend” Babs Miller, says in this clip. And right near […]

Especially Disney. And there’s a good reason. The entire entertainment industry has departed from its seemingly harmless mission of turning us into couch potatoes and making us laugh. It has now become our primary catechism for moral and spiritual formation. And Disney has become […]

This past Sunday, the worship service opened with a Disney medley that included Tarzan, Moana, and The Lion King. Certainly, this church … “church” … if you even want to call it that, has done much worse. I’ve covered them more times than I care […]

The ritual is set to music by a band that calls itself Dead Deities. The video shows a scantily clad woman marching through the aisles of a Hobby Lobby, while […]

She seemed very genuine, real, down-to-earth, and lovable. She seemed to genuinely care about people and want the best for them. And her music often reflected that. Dolly Parton passed away on August 25, 2026, at age 80 following […]

And what she said is exactly what you would expect from a woman cosplaying as one of Satan’s pastors. The oldest sin recorded in the Scriptures is questioning God. In Genesis 3:1, the serpent presents the question to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat […]
