Decline and Fall of Western Civilization

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

Will China overtake us in 30 years or 43 years?

The End of Religious Liberty in the USA?

Monday, November 24th, 2008

From the National Review Online:
If you believe that churches and synagogues, priests and rabbis won’t eventually be sued for their statements on sexuality, you’re kidding yourself. Chai Feldblum, a Georgetown University law professor and gay activist who helps draft federal legislation related to sexual orientation, says that, when religious liberty conflicts with gay rights, “I’m [...]

Thanksgiving Amidst Hard Times

Monday, November 24th, 2008

John Mark Reynolds:
Having experienced the Great Depression, my strong, West Virginian grandmothers would put it this way: hard times can be good for us. Though many people curse tough economic times, my grandmothers knew to be thankful, and expected God to use them to be the tutor for deeper internal lessons in virtue.

Are We On a Slippery Slope?

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

When will we simply tell the anti-8 children to grow up?
If a privileged minority kicks up a temper tantrum, are they allowed to overturn the will of the majority?
In California, maybe:
The citizens of California voted and decided that they want their state constitution to define marriage as being between one man and one woman. Well, [...]

Jim Jones was a Communist

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

And other excellent history:
It’s worth remembering that before the people of Peoples Temple drank Jim Jones’s Kool-Aid, the leftist political establishment of San Francisco gulped it down. And without the latter, the former would have never happened.
Read it all.

We Ignore the Present

Tuesday, November 18th, 2008

At our own peril.
Folks were warning us many years ago about the debacle we are know experiencing:
This policy—”America’s best mortgage program for working people,” NACA calls it—is an experiment with extraordinarily high risks. There is no surer way to destabilize a neighborhood than for its new generation of home buyers to lack the means to [...]

Obama and Israel

Sunday, November 16th, 2008

Don Singleton thinks Obama will throw Israel under the bus.
And more:
I am afraid many of his moves to the center were the same thing.

Obama the Aggressor

Friday, November 14th, 2008

Richard John Neuhaus:
The focus is on FOCA, the Freedom of Choice Act, that Obama says he wants to sign on his first day in office. This act would eliminate the very modest restraints and regulations established by states, provide government funding for abortions, and in its present form, require religiously sponsored hospitals and clinics to [...]

More Anti-Mormon Bigotry

Friday, November 14th, 2008

This time from the Anti-8 terrorists:
This fortnight-long temper tantrum certainly won’t help the anti-8 cause when the inevitable referendum appears to reverse the constitutional amendment Californians added in this election. I’d expect to see that on the ballot every two years from now on, but if its backers keep acting like lunatics, they can [...]
