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

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.

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

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

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

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
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?
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.

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?

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. What sort of government should they choose for themselves?

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

McDonnell said in a statement that he is doing so because his anti-abortion views have not been respected by Nebraska Democrats. “Being a Christian, a member of the Roman Catholic Church and pro-life is more important to me than being a registered Democrat,” McDonnell said.

The savage murder in Mississippi of 14-year-old Emmett Till for a hint of flirtation with a white woman, along with the instant acquittal of … Continue reading Like Some Prophet of Old – MLK biography

The agent gives a number for the FBI office in Oklahoma City before departing. Agents show … Continue reading Woman Records Very Creepy Visit by the FBI
by Mark Helprin – Winter 2023-24 – Claremont Review of Books As the home of intellectuals often at some remove from the consequences of their theories, and in betrayal of their purpose, universities have often become the welcoming soil for extremism, such as in National Socialist Germany, Fascist Italy, Soviet Russia, and elsewhere. Consider the following unfortunate though paradigmatic account of an institution that has lost its way: The national government had introduced a system of preferences similar in effect to the lapsed quotas this university had once implemented to “diminish the Jews.” Famously complex racial laws (in which people … Continue reading Kristallnacht again?

The Jews’ lasting contribution to Western civilization. by Michael M. Rosen – Aug 16, 2017 – Claremont Review of Books In The Genius of Judaism, French intellectual Bernard-Henri Lévy explores the deep, lasting contributions—intellectual, moral, and philosophical—that the Jews have made to Western civilization, especially in France. His creative, affecting, and personal exposition is a worthy, if sometimes idiosyncratic, addition to the literature on this subject. Lévy defines Judaism’s genius, somewhat elliptically, as “a certain idea of man and God, of history and time, of power, voice, light, sovereignty, revolt, memory and nature,” before delineating the relationship between Judaism and … Continue reading Pure Genius: How Judaism blessed the World
Desegregation is the leading example of a civil rights policy that failed. by Thomas F. Powers – Fall 2023 – Claremont Review of Books Some 60 years after its signature political victories, the civil rights revolution continues to generate moral energy. In their abhorrence of racial discrimination, Americans have discovered a new moral continent, making a commitment to justice central to American life. At the same time, the logic of liberal democracy—limited government, individual rights, pluralism, toleration—treats crusades warily, as endeavors that should be religious or civic, but not political. The story of desegregation and school busing illuminates the resulting … Continue reading The Politics of Moral Intoxication: Desegregation failed
