Some people really freak out when they hear of cases like this one, where parents (who happen to be Jehovah’s Witnesses) tried to prevent doctors from giving their little girl an infusion to save her life, or another one (and yet another), where parents preferred prayer over medical treatment and thus caused their child to die. And, to be completely honest, I am appalled by such cases too. But I fear there might be too many who think Christianity is to blame.

Then, interestingly enough, the same people who are constantly finding fault with Christianity are perfectly OK supporting abortions. To them, this a ”moral choice” and a “responsible” one, too (even though it follows an irresponsible action), as if the killing of an unborn baby was a totally different issue. You know - as if the baby had never been alive!

As a Christian, I think our life is one of the most precious gifts from God. And I believe in the power of prayer. But I also believe, God doesn’t need to work miracles if he’s already provided us with a different way of solving the problem (e.g. developments in medicine), which we prefer to overlook. So, don’t blame God; blame people.

At the same time, I think abortionists got it wrong too. They kill when there’s no (objective) reason to kill. But I wonder how many of these great pro-choice minds (and mouths) wouldn’t mind if their parents (or mothers, at least) had aborted them. (Now, that’s a thinker.) And I wonder what the world would look like now, with all the “friends of abortion” forever faded into oblivion.

If you worry too much about your future, you might be failing to see the problems others around you are facing today.

And which of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life’s span? (Luke 12:25, NAS)

Though a little later than usual, we bring you our latest This Month in the News (in two parts). And we hope you enjoy the little improvements we try to bring (although we still might need to work on the sound). Anyway, hope you have a good laugh (especially if you need it after a busy week).

Hi everyone. Long time no see. The holiday season has taken its toll with virtually no posts on my website. But I’m OK, which I’m sure many of you are relieved to hear — especially because you’ve been eagerly looking forward to seeing me in class — and with the help of a few friends, we are again able to bring you your recommended monthly allowance of This Month in the News (which has in the meantime de/regenerated into some sort of epic series).

At Campus Comedy, we like innovation and we like improvements. We hope you can see this as our little show changes bit by bit. Now we’ve gone widescreen. And we shot with an actual video camera. Check it out and enjoy! (YouTube also offers a high quality version of this).
