Libya's Revolutionaries: Freedom Fighters or Al Qaeda?

Date: March 31, 2011
Host: Ingrid Schlueter
Guest: David Rubin

David Rubin is the former Mayor of Shiloh, Israel, the founder and president
of the Shiloh Israel Children's Fund and author of a new book: The Islamic
Tsunami: Israel and America in the Age of Obama.

While David admits he's no fan of Libyan leader Muammar Gadaffi, he
questions the recent comment from President Obama where he stated that
the interests and values of the U.S. are represented by the actions of the
Islamic rebels in Libya.

According to David, the Muslim Brotherhood is the extreme representation
of the Sunnis while Iran is the extreme example of the Shiites. The two are
the forces for terrorism but also the power brokers in the Middle East. With
moderate Hosni Mubarak out of power in Egypt, what is Obama thinking?

This is the basis for discussion as Ingrid and David look at the forces that
Obama is supporting; forces that are attempting to shape the political and
social landscape in Libya and elsewhere in the Middle East.

"Standing Up to the NEA"

Date: March 29, 2011
Host: Jim Schneider
Guest: Tracey Bailey

Tracey Bailey is the Director of Education Policy at the American Association of Educators. Bailey oversees all education and labor policy as it relates to education. He believes that teachers should have a choice in professional organizations and works with educational leaders nationwide to promote increased professionalism among educators.

Bailey served in the Florida Department of Education for four years as the State Coordinator for Education Reform and as the Director of Charter Schools and Public School Choice. In 1993 he was selected as the National Teacher of the Year.

Bailey realizes that unions have done some good things. However, he believes that to force a teacher to become part of a militant, partisan, special interest union for the privilege of having a job in the public sector is wrong. He views this as a law from a bygone industrial era and is glad to see laws doing away with forced union dues.

Instead, Bailey believes teachers want choice and AAE works to offer teachers a future in education where they will be free to control their careers, providing individual input into their own pay and benefit packages and making their own decision about use of time, resources, and teaching methodologies. From the history of private and public unions to charter schools to the debate over local vs. national control of education; these and many other aspects of education and what can be done to improve it are covered on this edition of Crosstalk.

Seniors Take on Obamacare

Date: March 28, 2011
Host: Ingrid Schlueter
Guest: Daniel Weber

Daniel C. Weber founded the Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC) in the summer of 2007. Weber owned and operated a successful family insurance business for more than 30 years before retiring to form AMAC—an organization similar to the AARP but with a conservative focus. In his opinion, the United States is going through a period of drastic change that is tearing down the traditional values of our country. In Weber’s view, the very Constitution we were founded on is being disregarded. Each year the power of government increases while individual freedoms are threatened. High taxes are causing working families to suffer.

A proud defender of free enterprise, Weber feels we have the greatest economic system ever devised by man along with the world’s best health care system. His discussion with Ingrid offers details as to how AARP disguises its political agenda, why Obamacare has gotten as far as it has, and what all of us can do to prevent our health care system from evolving into one that is fully socialized.

Although AMAC offers discounted auto insurance, health insurance, as well as Medicare programs and supplements, their main function is to present the true voice of America’s older citizens. They have a lobbyist in Washington, D.C., and 250 ambassadors around the country that visit local congressional offices to let legislators know what older Americans are thinking and feeling.

Helping Our Suffering Brothers and Sisters

Date: March 24, 2011
Host: Jim Schneider
Guest: Court Wood

Court Wood is the Founder and Director of In Jesus Name Ministries.

Court Wood has literally traveled the world to visit Christian believers living in Hindu, communist, Muslim and Buddhist nations. In this program he joins Jim Schneider to discuss what he has seen and the struggles these
believers face.

In Pakistan, believers are facing increasing pressure and persecution from radical fundamental Islam. Court discusses why Islam is not a religion of peace and gives examples of those who bravely stood up yet lost their lives for opposing blasphemy laws.

From the land of plenty to the grinding oppression of impoverished nations on the other side of the globe, Court has experienced this contrast. What are the needs of oppressed Christians in other parts of the world and how can the
church in America "bear one another's burdens" and best help them? Find out as you review this edition of Crosstalk.

Also discussed was H.R. 440. This is legislation that would provide for the establishment of a special envoy to promote religious freedom of religious minorities in the Near East and South-Central Asia. To communicate your
support for this legislation, contact your legislators via the information listed
below.

Defunding Planned Parenthood

Date:March 23, 2011
Host:Ingrid Schlueter
Guest:Steven Mosher


Steven Mosher is the President of the Population Research Institute, an
organization dedicated to ending human rights abuses committed in the
name of "family planning," and to ending counter-productive social and
economic paradigms premised on the myth of "overpopulation."
Steven discusses the history of Planned Parenthood beginning with the Birth
Control League back in 1918. He notes how this "league" deliberately
intended to set up birth control clinics in minority neighborhoods populated
by immigrants because the wealthy of the Northeastern U.S. felt that
immigrants were having too many children.
Planned Parenthood has evolved to the point where they are responsible for
about one-quarter of all abortions done in the U.S. About a third of their
total budget comes from federal, state and local tax dollars, all of which has
allowed them to become a billion dollar organization.
Taking tax money from American citizens is bad enough but as Steven
points out, Planned Parenthood also makes us poor by killing off a portion of
the next generation, the generation we're depending upon to keep America
running.

Ignorance Imperils America's Future

Date:March 22, 2011
Host:Ingrid Schlueter
Guest:No Guest


While many of us would like to hear less about illegal aliens and more about people becoming official citizens of the United States, would you be able to pass a basic citizenship test?
For example: What is the supreme law of the land? How many Supreme Court justices are there? How many amendments does the Constitution have?
These are just a few of the questions discussed that were part of a basic citizenship test taken by 1,000 Americans as reported by Newsweek magazine. Sadly, their report indicated that 38% of those taking the test failed.
How does civic ignorance regarding such questions imperil our future? Find out how listeners responded to that question when you review this edition of Crosstalk.

Resisting Environmental Extremism

Date:March 21, 2011
Host:Jim Schneider
Guest:Dr. James Wanliss


James A. Wanliss, Ph.D., is a lay theologian and physicist. His entry into
the environmental debate began when he was asked to teach a university
course that scientifically examined several prominent claims of the
Green movement that proved to be either false or highly exaggerated. As he
explored the movement further, seeking the origins of its flawed scientific
claims, he found that its pervasively religious terminology showed that it
was an alternative to the Christian faith. Born in South Africa and educated
there, he has undergraduate degrees in applied mathematics and physics,
a master of science in geophysics, has been an elder in the Free Church of
Scotland and is now associate professor of physics at Presbyterian College,
Clinton, SC.
The basis for this Crosstalk is a new book released by the Cornwall Alliance
for the Stewardship of Creation. The book, Resisting the Green Dragon,
looks at the extremist worldview, ethics and theology of the "green"
movement. More specifically, its author, James A. Wanliss, Ph.D., uses
his time on Crosstalk to expose this movement's anti-Christian spirituality
and its attempt to co-opt the church by folding its principles of conservation
and "planetary salvation" into evangelicalism through leaders like Jim
Wallis, Ron Sider and others.

Americans for Truth Academy/Open Mic Friday

Date:March 18, 2011
Host:Ingrid Schlueter
Guest: Linda Harvey


Linda Harvey is a former advertising executive who, back in 1995, founded
Mission America, a non-profit organization focusing on cultural issues such
as feminism, homosexuality, education and New Age influences.
During the first quarter hour, Linda points out that there are times when we
must turn the other cheek. However, that's a person-to-person principle.
On the other hand, when it comes to issues like the homosexual-bisexual-
transgender agenda, this is a national issue and we can't afford to be silent.
It's for this reason that she discussed the upcoming Americans for Truth
Academy to be held on April 1st and 2nd at the Discover Christian Church
in Dublin, Ohio. The theme of the conference is: "The Hate-Labeling of
Christians—Why It's Happening and What We Can Do?" Mission America is
co-sponsoring the event with Americans for Truth About Homosexuality.
Speakers include Matt Barber, Vice President of Liberty Counsel Action;
Rena Lindevaldsen, Liberty Counsel attorney and professor with Liberty
University School of Law and David Kupelian, and bestselling author of
The Marketing of Evil and How Evil Works.
In other news:
A U.N panel discussion on the status of women recently concluded that
graphic sex education needs to be taught in the classroom.
Ingrid also let's listeners know that for those who want to give to a trusted
Christian charity that has a designated Japan disaster relief fund, check into
Christian Aid Missions. They are delivering their financial relief directly to
their churches and missions in Japan.

The Impact of Lawless Lawmakers

Date:March 17, 2011
Host:Jim Schneider
Guest: Phyllis Schlafly


Phyllis Schlafly has been a national leader of the conservative movement
since the publication of her best-selling 1964 book, A Choice Not an Echo.
She has been a leader of the pro-family movement since 1972, when she
started her national volunteer organization now called Eagle Forum. In a
ten-year battle, Mrs. Schlafly led the pro-family movement to victory over
the principal legislative goal of the radical feminists, called the Equal Rights
Amendment. An articulate and successful opponent of the radical feminist
movement, she appears in debate on college campuses more frequently
than any other conservative. She was named one of the 100 most important
women of the 20th century by the Ladies' Home Journal.
When Democratic lawmakers in Wisconsin fled to Illinois last month to
avoid a vote on a state budget bill, a new political precedent was being set.
After several weeks of holding up the democratic process, the lawmakers
returned and are being viewed by some as heroes.
Phyllis brings her experience to bear on this topic of lawless lawmakers as
she comments on the Wisconsin Democrats that fled their responsibilities,
the difficulty of the recall process, the death threats sent to Governor Scott
Walker, and she also answers numerous questions from Crosstalk listeners.

"Unions: Getting Out"

Date:March 16, 2011
Host:Vic Eliason
Guest: Brad Dacus


Brad Dacus served as Legislative Assistant to U.S. Senator Phil Gramm, and went on to receive his Juris Doctorate from the University of Texas, School of Law. For the next five years, Mr. Dacus coordinated religious freedom and parental rights cases throughout the Western states. In 1997, Mr. Dacus founded Pacific Justice Institute, where he serves as President and continues to defend religious liberties and parental rights. The Pacific Justice Institute has a network of approximately a thousand volunteer affiliate attorneys and handles more cases on the West Coast than any other organization of its kind.
With the recent budget moves by Wisconsin governor Scott Walker, unions are in the spotlight. The problem is, what if you work in a union job and you know that your union dues are going to causes that are unbiblical? What are your options?
Brad presents information concerning your rights available under Title 7 of the Civil Rights Act, the help available through the National Right to Work Foundation, his thoughts on public sector collective bargaining, and more.
On the second half of the program, Vic played sound bites of public sector school students, in two separate venues, being used as messengers by political motivators. Should teachers be allowed to do this with our children at taxpayer expense? Find out what listeners had to say on this edition of Crosstalk.

Japan Earthquake: An Eyewitness

Date:March 15, 2011
Host:Vic Eliason
Guest:David Benoit


Dave Benoit is with Glory Ministries.
During the first half of this edition of Crosstalk, Dave recalls his experience of being on the 43rd floor of a high-rise building in Japan during their recent earthquakes.  He also describes the miracle that allowed him to get a departing flight in an airport crowded with thousands of people.
The second half of the program features Dave giving details regarding what is perhaps an even bigger and more profound miracle.  It’s the story of how God used modern Internet technology and a young Chinese person to help Dave start a unique branch of ministry.  This ministry allows him to bring children to America from places like Asia and Africa, and while they are here, they receive a Christian education.

Up with Sharia, Down with the Constitution

Date:March 14, 2011
Host:Vic Eliason
Guest: David Rubin


David Rubin is the former mayor of Shiloh, Israel, a region of Samaria known to much of the world as the West Bank.  He is the founder and president of Shiloh Israel Children’s Fund, dedicated to easing the trauma of children who have been victims of terrorist attacks, as well as rebuilding the biblical heartland of Israel.  The Fund was established after Rubin and this 3 year old son were wounded in a terrorist attack while driving home from Jerusalem.  He vowed to retaliate, not with hatred or anger, but with compassion, in order to affect positive change for Israel and its people.
David is the author of, The Islamic Tsunami: Israel and America in the Age of Obama, a book that exposes the attempts of the Islamic ideologues to destroy Judeo-Christian civilization.
Why does he describe Islam as a “tsunami”?  Find out as you hear how he debunks the idea that Islam is a peaceful religion radicalized by a few, and what “peace” really means to Muslims who abide by the radical teachings of this religion.
However, amidst the warnings, don’t miss out on his message that with its foundation in law based upon the Bible, America is capable of standing up to the tsunami of Islam and its push to institute Sharia law.
Later in the program, Vic replayed the audio first played on Crosstalk on 3/11, on which British Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary describes a grim view of American society, and then tries to explain why Islamic Sharia law is the answer to our problems.

Muslim Cleric Proposes Sharia Law for America

Host: Vic Eliason

Vic began this edition of Crosstalk with an audio recording of British
Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary who had scheduled a rally on the steps of
the White House that was eventually cancelled. Choudary describes a grim
view of American society and he communicates why he believes Sharia
Islamic law is the alternative that can improve our current state of affairs.

Do we understand this? When we open our churches to Muslims and allow
them to hold Islamic services, are we allowing the “Trojan horse” into
our midst? These are questions that Vic posed to listeners as he opened
the phone lines to hear what America had to say about this bold Islamic
statement.

Defunding NPR

March 10, 2011

Host: Jim Schneider
Guest: Robert Romano

Robert Romano is the senior editor with Americans for Limited
Government.

From the firing of commentator Juan Williams, to the recent resignation of
the president and CEO of National Public Radio (NPR), the Corporation
for Public Broadcasting is currently under great scrutiny. This corporation,
which is the parent of National Public Radio, currently receives 420 million
annually in taxpayer funding. So, wouldn’t this move destroy public
broadcasting?

This is not the case as Robert notes how NPR’s own V.P for Development,
Ron Schiller, revealed that NPR does not need taxpayer funding; that in fact,
it hurts their own fundraising efforts because potential donors believe that
the stations get most of their funding via taxpayer dollars.

Republican lawmakers are making this same contention which just adds
weight to the public relations problems facing the Corporation for Public
Broadcasting.

Jim Schneider with Ray Comfort: "The Defender’s Guide for Life’s Toughest Questions"

Date:March 9, 2011
Host:Jim Schneider
Guest: Ray Comfort

To open this edition of Crosstalk, Jim Schneider reported the following:
--The U.S. Supreme Court denies Michael Newdow’s legal challenge to America’s national motto.
--Congressman Peter King facing threats because he’s holding hearings on radical Islam
Ray Comfort is a best-selling author as well as founder, president and CEO of Living Waters Publications, a ministry involved in reaching the lost and equipping Christians with every necessary resource to fulfill the Great Commission.
Skeptics today are challenging Christians with questions that many simply aren’t prepared to answer.  To prepare believers with the answers they need, Ray Comfort wrote the book, The Defender’s Guide for Life’s Toughest Questions.
This Crosstalk looks at some of the questions from the book; questions derived from his experiences in blogging with atheists such as:
--Why does God allow sickness and death if He is sovereign?
--Why won’t God heal amputees?
--Why do we have a New Testament?  Wasn’t the Old Testament good enough?
--How do we know the biblical God is the real God?
--Should we take our children to the doctor or would that be interfering with the work of God in his life?

He has also contributed to dozens of textbooks.  His latest book is The Dark Side of Charles Darwin: A Critical Analysis of an Icon of Science.
Charles Darwin, the icon of evolution, is said to have exhibited both mental health problems and overt racism.  He had a very low opinion of women, plagiarized freely in developing his theory of evolution, and as a child, he enjoyed the sadistic killing of animals with any handy weapon, including hammers.

Was Darwin’s theory of evolution actually “theological” in the sense that he developed evolution to replace the concept of God?  Does Darwinism demand atheism? These are just a few of the "skeletons" discovered in Charles Darwin's "closet".

A Burqa for Lady Liberty



Date:March 7, 2011
Host:Vic Eliason
Guest:Walid Shoebat


Walid Shoebat is a former Palestinian terrorist and Muslim Brotherhood member who understands the mindset, motivation, strategy and history of the Islamic jihad.  Shoebat disputes the Western media’s portrayal that this is a pro-democracy movement and explains instead how the revolution serves the Muslim Brotherhood’s objective to resurrect the Turkish Ottoman Empire, ruled by a Sharia caliphate.
The Islamic group that had pledged to have a pro-sharia rally outside the White House last week abruptly canceled their plans and announced they were going to cover the Statue of Liberty in a Burqa instead. This group has the goal of Islamic domination for the United States.
Outlandish ideas like putting a burqa on Lady Liberty or destroying it and putting up a minaret go well beyond typical Islamist “talking points” such as Islam being a peaceful religion.  These points are apparently very effective as Walid points to in the blessing given to the Muslim Brotherhood by Barack Obama concerning their involvement in the restructuring of Egypt.
Why is Sharia law incompatible with our Bill of Rights?  What could happen if Americans continue to remain in the dark about the Qur’an and the Hadith?  Walid sounds the alarm regarding these and other facets of the Islamic threat on this edition of Crosstalk.

Friday News Roundup

Ingrid began this edition of Crosstalk with mention of a documentary called, The Child: America’s Battle for the Next Generation.  This documentary looks at the primacy of parental rights and how they are under attack.  It can be viewed online this Monday (3/7) onhttp://www.nrbnetwork.tv at 7pm and again at 11pm Central time.  (The program will also air on channel 378 on DirecTV.)
Ingrid then presented the following topics to help facilitate discussion:
--An estimated 7.5 million dollars in damage has been done to Wisconsin’s capitol by demonstrators.
--Will the Statue of Liberty be covered with a Muslim burqa?
The phone lines were then opened up to callers who communicated concerns of their own dealing with the following: the M.I.A. democrat legislators in Wisconsin…left-wing hatred and the entitlement mentality…sick notes for protesting teachers in Madison, WI….and much more.

What is Worship Music?

Dr. Paul S. Jones is the organist and Music Director at historic Tenth Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia.  He has composed or arranged more than seventy sacred works.  He has recorded nine CD’s and composed or arranged more than 200 sacred works including 50 hymn tunes.
What is worship?  It depends upon our understanding of God.  Our coming together to celebrate him involves recognizing and describing his great acts, such as creation and redemption, as well as his attributes and characteristics.  This element is consistent throughout the three facets of worship: praise, prayer and proclamation.
So if you were to look at the body of Christ as a mirror, how much of himself do you think God sees being reflected when he looks at our worship?  Does he see us selfishly trying to appease our personal preferences or does he really see people concentrating on him?
These and numerous other factors are discussed as Ingrid and Paul discuss the controversial topic, “What is Worship Music?”
This program first aired September 29, 2010
