Dr James Dobson of Focus on the Family once received an interesting letter from a nine-year-old girl. The letter was titled “why girls are better than boys.” The list included everything from “girls are kinder to animals,” to “girls don't smell as bad.” Amused, Dr. Dobson posted the letter in his newsletter, and asked boys to make their own list. He received a variety of responses, including “boys are better because they aren't scared of scary movies,” and “boys can build better forts than girls.” Unfortunately, our society often leans towards that nine-year-old girls' perspective– celebrating feminine traits and dismissing masculine traits. It's up to us as parents to remind boys that their natural tendencies to be brave, innovative, and energetic should be celebrated, as well.

For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and discharge all the duties of your ministry.

This segment unearths the deeply disturbing legacy of a prominent Christian leader whose authoritarian parenting advice and regressive family models directly fueled modern Christian nationalism. From advocating physical child discipline to igniting the Satanic Panic, his teachings exemplify how religious authority can morph into widespread societal harm. We scrutinize whether religion, as a perceived "tool," can truly be beneficial when its applications enable such demonstrable abuse. The discussion tackles the difficult ethical questions of confronting harmful legacies without simply dismissing critiques as anti-religious bias, and navigating reactions to the passing of influential yet destructive figures. It's a stark reminder of how spiritual strongmen, often claiming to "save the children," can inflict generational trauma by weaponizing faith to control minds, families, and ultimately, entire nations.News Source: The Dark Legacy Of James Dobson: A Reflection On Influence By Henry Karlson for SmartNews August 25, 2025

In this episode of NHL Wraparound, Neil Smith and Vic Morren turn their attention to the Montreal Canadiens — a team on the rise after breaking back into the playoffs for the first time since their 2021 Stanley Cup Final appearance.The hosts dig deep into Montreal's pivotal offseason, highlighted by a massive trade for defenseman Noah Dobson and the big-ticket extension that followed — 8 years at $9.5M AAV. Is Dobson truly a franchise defenseman? Can he deliver on that contract, especially paired with Calder Trophy winner Lane Hutson?Neil and Vic also explore Montreal's elite prospect pool, including standout names like Ivan Demidov, David Reinbacher, and Jacob Fowler — plus what their development means for the future of the franchise. And with Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, and Juraj Slafkovsky continuing to grow, the Habs look poised to become a major threat… but are they ready now?
The New York Islanders enter the 2025–26 season with a new GM at the helm, Matthew Darche, replacing Hall of Famer Lou Lamoriello. After finishing 12th in the Eastern Conference last season and missing the playoffs with a 500 record, the Islanders are retooling—and arguably rebuilding.Hosts Neil Smith and Vic Morren break down what Darche inherited, what he's changed, and what it means for a franchise that had the worst special teams index in the NHL last season. Power play? 31st. Penalty kill? 31st. Combine them? Dead last. Both assistant coaches were let go, but the pressure now falls squarely on Patrick Roy, who stays on as head coach.They dive into the loss of key players like Noah Dobson and Brock Nelson, dissect what Emil Heineman, Jonathan Drouin, and David Rittich bring to the team, and consider whether top prospect Matthew Schaefer is ready to fill a top-pairing role on the blue line.With a thin prospect pool and major question marks on the power play, can the Islanders overachieve and make a push for the playoffs? Or is this a transition year with the eyes squarely on the future?IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00] Overview: New GM, missed playoffs, worst special teams in NHL[01:10] Noah Dobson & Brock Nelson departures — big losses[02:45] Offseason signings: Drouin, Rittich, CC, DeAngelo[04:30] Who replaces Dobson's minutes and Nelson's production?[05:50] Can Barzal rebound from injury and stay healthy?[06:30] The outlook for Matthew Schaefer and other young defensemen[07:10] Patrick Roy's challenge: improve special teams or face consequences[08:20] Depth concerns, aging veterans, and overachievement expectations[09:00] Can Rittich or Varlamov give Sorokin needed rest?[09:50] Roy-Darche dynamic: How long is the leash for the head coach?[10:15] Closing thoughts: An Islanders team focused more on the future than the presentKEY TAKEAWAYS:Special teams were historically bad, and improving both units is mission-critical.Noah Dobson and Brock Nelson are major losses, even if Montreal may have overpaid for Dobson.The Islanders are not clearly better on paper heading into 2025–26—they may need to overachieve to stay competitive.Goaltending remains a strength, especially if Sorokin gets support from Varlamov or Rittich.Patrick Roy will be under pressure, both from a new GM and from a fanbase tired of mediocrity.This season may be less about contention and more about transition, with key prospects like Schaefer taking on big roles early.RESOURCE LINKS:
