  • Devon Archer testimony review by Jim Pfaff
    2023/08/01

    Today on the Against Nice Podcast, Jim Pfaff gives an analysis of what we know about the Devon Archer testimony in a private conference of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee in the US House of Representative Monday. 

    We don't yet have the actualy transcript of the private testimony. That will be coming later. But we do have a thread on the X app (fomerly Twitter) which outlines some key parts of the exchange between the Congressmen on the committee and Hunter Biden's former business partner Devon Archer.

    Here's a link to the GOP House Oversight committee's X thread.

  • Unraveling Christianity's Influence on Western Culture with Scholar Bruce Gore
    2023/07/13
    Join us for a fascinating discussion with Bruce Gore, a professor and retired Attorney from Spokane, Washington, who has invested years into the exploration of the Bible's connections with history and the implications of this knowledge in our understanding of the Scripture. Listen in as Bruce shares his journey from a newsman to college professor, how his growing concerns with dispensationalism, and his discovery of R.C. Sproul, which led him back to his passion for teaching. We delve into his experience with teaching at the Oaks, Classical Christian school, and how this led him to create his unique course 'Historical Context of the Bible'.  We're also unpacking the influence of Christian beliefs and the Church on American culture. Bruce and I discuss the origins and evolution of dispensationalism, its impact on how the Church interprets end time scenarios, and how the various interpretations influence how Christians deal with culture. We explore the current darkness in American culture, the role of the Gospel in the public square, and how Christians have responded to the challenges.  The conversation doesn't stop there. We navigate through the concept of unalienable rights, the interpretation of Romans 13, and the role of government in society. We discuss the need for Christians to uphold the laws of the Bible, how law is represented in the Old Testament, and the importance of the Constitution. We examine the influence of Christianity in political opposition, the early Church's response to the perceived threat from Rome, and how Christians can use their gifts to make a difference in the world today. Listen in as we explore the political philosophies of the Old Testament, compare Hammurabi's Code with the 10 Commandments, and reflect on the holiness of God as the common thread throughout history.

  • The Facebook Whistleblower isn't what you think she is
    2021/10/06

    Facebook has had a very bad week. The 60 Minutes interview with the Facebook Whistleblower Frances Haugen made a big splash on Sunday. That was magnified on Tuesday when Facebook was inaccessible for a number of hours starting at 11:45 am. And then Haugen testified at a Congressional hearing on Tuesday claiming among other things Facebook knows Instagram is harming the psychology of young girls yet does nothing about it. It didn't look pretty.

    Conservatives and Republicans, in particular, want Facebook hung high in the air by their necks. Many have advocated for breaking up Facebook as a company and regulating the industry as a whole. They are tired of the systematic censorship in all of social media. But hold on a moment. Have you considered what it would mean if Congress suddenly did regulate social media? Jim Pfaff says it would be far worse than the current situation. He explains why in this podcast of his time on WYDE radio in Birmingham Tuesday, October 5, 2021.
