Today on Kresta - May 5, 2011

Talking about the "things that matter most" on May 5

4:00 – The Flipside of Feminism: What Conservative Women Know -- and Men Can't Say
What if everything you've been told about women in America is wrong? What if what your college professors taught you - along with television, movies, books, magazine articles, and even news reports - have all been lies or distortions? Since the 1960s, American feminists have set themselves up as the arbiters of all things female. Their policies have dominated the social and political landscape. The "spin sisters" in the media (aptly named by Myrna Blyth in her book of the same name) and their cohorts in academia are committed feminists. Consequently, everything Americans know -- or think they know -- about marriage, kids, sex, education, politics, gender roles, and work/family balance, has been filtered through a left-wing lens. But what if conservative women are in the best position to empower American women? Suzanne Venker is here to discuss it.

4:20 – The Life of a Warrior
Sergeant David Hack is an Army Veteran who served in Vietnam and has marshaled his love of country, love of the military, and love of his faith into his company US Wings, the only official licensee for government-issue aviator jackets. He joins us in studio to discuss his life and mission.

4:40 – Inside the Hunt for Osama Bin Laden
For many years, Michael Scheuer headed the CIA’s Bin Laden Unit. He has been in high demand this week for analysis of the Bin Laden operation, death, burial, photographs and more. He joins us today.

5:00 – The Catholic Church and Science; Answering the Questions, Exposing the Myths
In The Catholic Church and Science, Ben Wiker takes on the most common errors that modern materialistic thinkers, convinced that faith and science must be mortal enemies, have foisted into popular culture. With great learning, clarity, and wit he tackles stubborn confusions many people have about the relationship between Christianity especially Catholicism and the empirical sciences, and separates truth from lies, the factual from the fanciful. He joins us.

5:40 – There Be Dragons
Arising out of the horror of the Spanish Civil War, a candidate for canonization is investigated by a journalist who discovers his own estranged father had a deep, dark and devastating connection to the saint's life. The film is There Be Dragons and it explores a part of the life of St. Jose Maria Escriva. Steven Greydanus represented Ave Maria Radio at the premiere and press junket for There Be Dragons. Today he gives us his formal review.

  1. Michael Scheuer is a self-promoting anti-Israel propagandist. He does not deserve a forum on your radio program. (http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2008/03/020056.php)
