Continued from page 10 CAMPUS Continued from page 10 WALL how many liberal speakers were treated the same way! The "heckler's veto" worked — Berkeley Campus Repub- licans cancelled the Horow- itz event. When it came to Ann Coul- ter, though, it was Berkeley officials who cancelled over "security concerns." Cam- pus conservatives were now 0 -for-3 last year. "A fter attempts at hosting three conservative speaker events," writes Mr. Tahmas, "it became clear to me that there were two sets of rules at Berkeley — one for liberal students and one for conser- vatives — and that the only way to remedy this injustice was to file a lawsuit." Even as the lawsuit was pending, Mr. Tahmas tried again. This time his group invited Ben Shapiro, and it looked as if the pattern was going to repeat itself. This time, however, when univer- sity officials pushed against the Shapiro event, there was (finally) enough of a public outcry to ensure a different result, and the event was held after all. Even better, though, was the victory I men- tioned at the outset. Earli- er this month, Berkeley and the campus conservatives reached a settlement. The school will no longer require randomly assessed security fees. All students can host events for free in classrooms and in student-government- owned venues. It's a shame that legal ac- tion was necessary to af- firm the fact that, yes, the First Amendment still ap- plies, and not just to speak- ers who spout politically correct points of view. But this illustrates the wisdom of the Founders in creating a Bill of Rights in the first place. Spelling out our in- alienable, God-given rights is one of the best things they ever did. As James Madison once said, "Our First Amend- ment freedoms give us the right to think what we like and say what we please. And if we the people are to gov- ern ourselves, we must have these rights, even if they are misused by a minority." So when we consider what we're grateful for this Christmas, let's remember our freedoms. They're not here by magic, but because good people fight to defend them. Let's add our voice to their ranks — in 2019 and beyond. Ed Feulner is founder of The Heritage Foundation (www.heritage.org). you think defending our na- tion and the core principles that make it free is racist. The American formula for diversity is "E Pluribus Un- um." Out of many, one. De- fending this is what this wall is about. Let's hope President Trump prevails over the Democratic Grinch and suc- ceeds in delivering this im- portant Christmas present to the American people.

Is it coin- cidence that we find the like- ness of our modern elected officials is also found within the pages of the Holy Scrip- tures, which warn of judg- ment to come. With this being said, as Christians, what sort of life should we live. The answer will not be well received by political aficionados. Paul wrote his protégé Timothy, "You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one en- gaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier." Mankind is afflicted with carnality, and the drive to possess and dominate oth- ers will never change. Fur- thermore, national politics is about compromise which means you must negotiate what you value with others who do not share the same values. And to those who desire to make a name for them- selves in this life as a mover and shaker the apostle Peter reminds the faithful, "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. There- fore, since all these things will be dissolved, what man- ner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and god- liness…." Do not be distressed. The prophet Daniel reveals who is the real power behind the throne: "Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever; wisdom and power are his. He changes times and seasons; he deposes kings and raises up others." As the song writer said, "Yes, I know, everything's going to be all right! " My New Year's Resolu- tion? To preach Christ and Him crucified! Think about it! Continued from page 10 BEGINNINGS Laotian, Samoan and Vietnamese women have the highest cervical cancer rates in the United States. The Pima Indians of Arizo- na have the highest report- ed prevalence of diabetes of any population in the world. Tay-Sachs disease favors Ashkenazi Jews. Cystic fi- brosis haunts white peo- ple. Blacks of West A frican ethnic origin have the high- est incidence of sickle cell anemia. The prevalence of prostate cancer is lower in men of South Asian ethnici- ty than in the general popu- lation. Black American men have the highest prostate cancer rates of any racial or ethnic group in the Unit- ed States. Black males are also 30 percent likelier to die from heart disease than white men. There are some high- ly fatal sex disparities. An Australian study found that sharks are nine times like- lier to attack and kill men than they are women. Anoth- er disturbing sex disparity is that despite the fact that men are 50 percent of the U.S. population and so are women, men are struck by lightning six times as often as women. Of those killed by lightning, 82 percent are men. There are loads of oth- er disparities based upon physical characteristics, but it would take a fool to believe that we are all equal and any difference between us is a result of some kind of social injustice that begs for a societal remedy. The only kind of equality con- sistent with liberty is equal- ity before the law — which doesn't require that people be in fact equal. Walter E.

Let us also not forget the re- ality of some not so delightful events in life- death, illness, broken relation- ships, tragedies and the like. So embedded in this mystery of life is the journey of time which will nev- er come back once it passes. I often hear this expression- once time is lost, we will never get it back. It is a com- modity you cannot afford to waste or squander. I have learned through the years of my own experience that a review of one's time frames can be helpful in appreciating this short journey allot- ted to us. I often find it helpful to divide my snapshots of life into 5 -10 year incre- ments and check my rearview mirror of the past. It makes me realize the val- ue of family, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances. It makes me think that whenever possible we should see the goodness of everyone, and learn the value of tolerance and forgiveness, the value of expressing our love to all we can extend it to. Difficult to do? Yes it is, and we do need to exert a conscious effort to practice these vir- tues. So as the year ends, we hope we all have done fairly well. And as the new beginnings for the year 2,019 AD comes upon us, we trust our lives will be better and filled with memorable times. So beginning January, lets start a new chapter of life, hopefully as good or better than where we were. • • • Humor of the week: A minister wait- ed in line to have his car filled with gas just before a long holidayweek- end. The attendant worked quickly, but there were so many cars ahead of him. Finally, the attendant motioned him toward a vacant pump. "Reverend," said the young man, "I'm so sorry about the delay. It seems as if everyone waits until the last min- ute to get ready for a long trip." The minister chuckled and said, " I know what you mean. It's the same way in my business."
