Global Warming: The Origin and Nature of the Alleged Scientific Consensus

By Richard S. Lindzen – The Cato Review of Business & Government – Dec. 4, 2012 Richard S. Lindzen is the Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Meteorology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Most of the literate world today regards “global warming” as both real and dangerous. Indeed, the diplomatic activity concerning warming might lead one to believe that it is the major crisis confronting mankind. The June 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, focused on international agreements to deal with that threat, and the heads of state from dozens of countries attended. I must state at the … Continue reading Global Warming: The Origin and Nature of the Alleged Scientific Consensus

Cultural Christianity is about Culture

By Ben C. Dunson – April 27, 2023 – American Reformer On seeking a just order in this world The Blessings of Cultural Christianity? I am the beneficiary of cultural Christianity. I didn’t grow up in a genuinely Christian home, though I did attend (very) liberal United Methodist churches beginning in elementary school. These churches did not believe the Bible was true, did not believe in the supernatural events of Scripture, nor the moral teaching of God’s word. And yet Christianity was the very air I breathed all through my childhood and teenage years. I spent most of my childhood … Continue reading Cultural Christianity is about Culture

The Fall of Rome, updated

 January 31, 2024 by Ann Coulter Third-worlders killed three Americans in Jordan over the weekend, and our political establishment is ready to start World War III. Which is more of a national security threat: terrorists 6,000 miles away, or our wide-open border?       People have different ways of evaluating threats, but the most basic test is: Which one kills more U.S. citizens? Americans killed by Islamic terrorists in Islamic lands so far this year: 3. Americans killed by third-worlders who entered our country illegally so far this year: 150. I’m not even counting the 100,000 Americans who die annually of fentanyl … Continue reading The Fall of Rome, updated

One worldview has taken over the historical profession

By Peter Wood – 29 August 2022, 9:00am – The Spectator Professor James H. Sweet is a temperate man. He seeks to avoid extremes. But he also seeks to be bold in his temperance. You can do that by emphatically stating an opinion that seems above reproach. But Professor Sweet miscalculated. His emphatic bromide blew up, and he was left offering emphatic apologies. For those who have not followed this little academic circus, Professor Sweet, who teaches history at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, is also the president of the American Historical Association (AHA). That’s an important post. The … Continue reading One worldview has taken over the historical profession

The ‘Trump Never Conceded’ Lie

Derek Hunter |  May 21, 2024 | Townhall.com My cmnt: To my knowledge Hillary still insists she did not legitimately lose to President Trump and continues to this day to insist that since she won the “popular” vote (i.e., the irrelevant mass votes in LA and New York that virtually guarantee nearly every democrat “wins” more votes than any Republican) Trump was an illegitimate president. She did offer a concession speech on Nov 9 as seen here. She and her party then launched the Russian Collusion Hoax and did everything in their power to destroy Trump’s presidency including funding the gain-of-function … Continue reading The ‘Trump Never Conceded’ Lie

Crash near downtown Lincoln results in death of unborn child, police say

Lincoln Journal Star – May 10, 2024 My cmnt: Losing a child at any stage of life is the most heartbreaking trauma a parent can endure. The pain and sorrow this poor woman and her family are suffering now has to be nearly unbearable. Prayers for her, her family and her child. My cmnt: The Left-leaning, democrat-run Journal Star is careful to use weasel words when reporting on this horrible tragedy. You will note that it is NOT the LJS calling this a death of an “unborn child” but rather it is the “Lincoln Police Department.” Also the LJS is … Continue reading Crash near downtown Lincoln results in death of unborn child, police say

Hysterics for Hamas

Why have young women been so prominent in the recent campus chaos? Heather Mac Donald – City Journal – May 9, 2024 My cmnt: Anyone over sixty saw firsthand the BeatleMania driven almost exclusively by females. When I was talking with my aged mother about this she offhandedly remarked about going to a Frank Sinatra concert attended almost exclusively by young women and screaming with all the other girls. Hysteria (a word derived via Latin from Greek husterikos ‘of the womb’, from hustera ‘womb’) has from ancient times been observed to be more specific to women especially when they form mobs. In general women emote first and rationalize later … Continue reading Hysterics for Hamas

By David Jones – Last updated at 10:31 PM on 6th August 2010 – The Daily Mail The warm, white sand stretches for miles as clean and flat as a freshly laundered bed sheet. The turquoise sea is so clear that I can see silvery fish playing around my toes as I take a cooling paddle. If there is any more pristine resort in which to spend a summer holiday than Pensacola Beach, on the Gulf Coast of Florida, I would like to find it. And yet, at a time of year when usually there is barely room to unfold … Continue reading Disaster that never was: Why claims that BP created history’s worst oil spill may be the most cynical spin campaign ever

Some Jews are simply deranged

Dennis Prager |  May 07, 2024 – Townhall.com My cmnt: Dennis calls them “sick Jews”. That is too mild a description so I changed it to the more appropriate term “deranged”. He explains below why some Jews hate other Jews for being Jews. I doubt that there is any national or religious group that produces the percentage of people who aid those who wish to hurt, let alone kill, that group as do Jews. When one observes Jews who defend those whose raison d’etre is the annihilation of the one Jewish country on Earth, you have to ask: Why are there … Continue reading Some Jews are simply deranged

Is the Pope Catholic?

What Francis hath wrought. books reviewed The Great Reformer: Francis and the Making of a Radical Pope by Robert Royal – Winter 2019 – Claremont Review of Books Even when, as at present, the Catholic Church exercises very little direct political or social power, its continued witness to the world after two millennia retains a compelling grandeur. Empires rise and fall, revolutions come and go, but the Church—miraculously—endures, despite great internal troubles, a great pre-modern bulwark in the modern day against shallow rationalism and moral relativism. And so when the Catholic Church seems to have become unsure, or divided, about its own … Continue reading Is the Pope Catholic?

Nebraska governor signs order to cut 1,000 vacant state jobs, promoting efficiency in government

Chris Dunker – Apr 30, 2024 – Lincoln Journal Star My cmnt: This is of course a wonderful idea so naturally the Lib-Left-Loonies (i.e., democrats) in the Nebraska state legislature scream bloody murder.

Jim Pillen on Tuesday signed an executive order that aims to eliminate up to 1,000 state government jobs that have remained open for 90 days or more. The funds budgeted for those positions will be reallocated to other priorities of the state or be used … Continue reading Nebraska governor signs order to cut 1,000 vacant state jobs, promoting efficiency in government

Is America’s Government Secular?

Robert George5-Minute Videos – Nov 29, 2021 – Prager U Was America founded to be a secular nation? In other words, does religion have no role in American politics or public policy-making? The answer is more complex than you might think. Robert George, Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton University, explains. (This video was made possible through our partnership with Dallas Baptist University.) It has become a dogma of progressive ideology that America is a “secular” nation. What do people mean by secular? Their argument goes this way: “Since the Constitution establishes a strict separation of church and state, religion has … Continue reading Is America’s Government Secular?

The Constitution: Why a Republic?

Robert George, Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton University, explores the problems the founders faced at this pivotal moment in history. Against all odds, the Americans won their War of Independence.  But their success brought a new challenge—no less daunting.

6 Compliments That Land Every Time

8 MINUTE READ BY ANGELA HAUPT – Time magazine APRIL 12, 2024 12:22 PM EDT On a recent weekday afternoon, Xuan Zhao popped into the post office shortly before it closed. The man helping her was incredibly patient and went out of his way to assist her with a pile of packages. So before she left, she handed him a compliment card she had designed. “Your willingness to go the extra mile never goes unnoticed,” it said on the front. The flip-side read: “You’re receiving this compliment because your awesomeness deserves a big shoutout,” along with a reminder that kind words have … Continue reading 6 Compliments That Land Every Time

You Still Don’t Know the Whole Rosa Parks Story

5 MINUTE READ – Time magazine vault – https://time.com/4125377/rosa-parks-60-years-video You probably think you know the story of Rosa Parks, the seamstress who refused to move to the back of the bus in Montgomery, Ala., 60 years ago—on Dec. 1, 1955—and thus galvanized the bus boycott that was a defining moment in the American civil rights movement. You also probably think you know what she looks like — from her mugshot most likely, or a picture of her being fingerprinted, or perhaps a later photo of her seated, looking out the window, on an integrated bus. But those three images are often … Continue reading You Still Don’t Know the Whole Rosa Parks Story
