How do today's youth view topics such as abortion and gay marriage? The answers may surprise you.

Bobby Joe Long committed at least nine rape/murders in Tampa, Florida in the mid-90's. During his trial an MRI scan of his brain discovered his amygdala had been severely damaged from a motorcycle accident. It was only after this accident that Long became a criminal. In trial research, monkeys with damaged amygdalas are shown to have significant social and emotional deficits. Which is a long way of asking, how much free will do we really have? Read this article to find out.

"Guest Worker Program" is a polite phrase for modern slavery.

If you are in Mississippi this week don't miss the high school basketball grand slam in Tupelo.
