Domino's Pizza Donates to Pro-Life Ministries
By Editorial Staff
Published April 2008
DETROIT, MI (EP) – The owner of Domino’s Pizza, a giant 500-store franchise operation, recently donated $50,000 to Operation Rescue, the pro-life direct action group which stages massive sit-in protests at abortion clinics, often closing them for hours at a time. Domino’s Farms, the parent company of the pizza chain, also donated $10,000 to the group.
Domino’s Pizza owner Tom Monaghan, who also owns the Detroit Tigers, has been speaking out against abortion in recent years. Domino’s Pizza spokesperson Kerry McNulty said of the gift to Operation Rescue, “I don’t know why he chose that particular group,” but speculated it was “out of personal conviction.”
The National Organization of Women (NOW) is trying to mount a feminist boycott of Domino’s Pizza. “One day we were buying it, and the next day we were mad at them,” explained NOW press liaison Colleen Dermody. “This is serious. Feminists live on Domino’s Pizza.” The boycott was also promoted in a recent issue of Ms. magazine.
An early April broadcast of a Minneapolis talk radio program offered a look at how the boycott is being received. A caller urged participation in the boycott, and said he would take his one-pizza-a-week business elsewhere. A few minutes later the father of five teenagers called to say that while he didn’t prefer pizzas from Domino’s he would now be taking them his nine-pizza-a-week business to show support for the gift to Operation Rescue, and to make up for people like the first caller.

Dr. Francis Schaeffer - A Christian Manifesto (DVD)
That Swiss Hermit Strikes Again!
Dr. Schaeffer, who was one of the most influential Christian thinkers in the twentieth century, shows that secular humanism has displaced the Judeo-Christian consensus that once defined our nation’s moral boundaries. Law, education, and medicine have all been reshaped for the worse as a consequence. America’s dominant worldview changed, Schaeffer charges, when Christians weren’t looking.
Schaeffer lists two reasons for evangelical indifference: a false concept of spirituality and fear. He calls on believers to stand against the tyranny and moral chaos that come when humanism reigns-and warns that believers may, at some point, be forced to make the hard choice between obeying God or Caesar. A Christian Manifesto is a thought-provoking and bracing Christian analysis of American culture and the obligation Christians have to engage the culture with the claims of Christ.

The Four Keys to the Millennium (Book)
Foundations in Biblical Eschatology
By Jay Rogers, Larry Waugh, Rodney Stortz, Joseph Meiring. High quality paperback, 167 pages.
All Christians believe that their great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will one day return. Although we cannot know the exact time of His return, what exactly did Jesus mean when he spoke of the signs of His coming (Mat. 24)? How are we to interpret the prophecies in Isaiah regarding the time when “the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea” (Isa. 11:19)? Should we expect a time of great tribulation and apostasy or revival and reformation before the Lord returns? Is the devil bound now, and are the saints reigning with Christ? Did you know that there are four hermeneutical approaches to the book of Daniel and Revelation?
These and many more questions are dealt with by four authors as they present the four views on the millennium. Each view is then critiqued by the other three authors.

Hi, I’m the VP of Communications at Domino’s and I’m confused. This story is being used as proof that people should boycott Domino’s. But what’s being presented here as “current” is TWENTY YEARS OLD! Tom Monaghan sold the company a decade ago. Why are you publishing as current something that took place 20 years ago?
