pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter…
Here’s the short version of the liberal take on Hobby Lobby via the Houston Chronicle and syndicated columnist Leonard Pitts, Jr. “Shut up and pay up.” Actual quote: “There is something intrusive and even faintly Talibanesque about the idea of religious values shared by some of us being imposed on thousands of us because of…
This started out as a comment to another post but it grew and sort of acquired a life of its own. I post a lot of “negative” items that illustrate the things that are wrong with society and our culture and not much about a path forward or a way out – so I thought…
FUNDAMENTALS OF NATURAL LAW: Not All Property Is ‘Private’ This post is primarily addressed to my ‘Conservative’ friends, but also to those few ‘Libertarians’ who happen to follow my blogs, as well. I have written several posts about corporations to which these friends of mine have taken offense. They seem to think I am attacking private…
“Predictably, if one can only appeal to the state for justice, justice will be perverted in favor of the state. Instead of resolving conflict, a monopolist of ultimate decision-making will provoke conflict in order to settle it to his own advantage. Worse, while the quality of justice will fall under monopolistic auspices, its price will…
The main arguments that I have heard from the left on the Hobby Lobby/Conestoga Wood Products (aka Hobby Lobby) question is that they are “discriminating against women” by “denying women’s access to health care”. Setting aside for a moment the First Amendment, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (which was signed into law by Bill Clinton…
This is a l-o-n-g one, but you will learn things you probably didn’t know: AGENDAS: Destroy the Christian Roots of America and Build a Global Marxist Society This post will not be easy to write. There is too much I need to explain, and even then, there will be much more I have to leave out…
LESSONS IN LOGIC: Taking the Hobby Lobby Case to Its Logical Conclusions The Hobby Lobby case is an excellent example of what happens when we turn Natural Law on its head to suit our desires rather than seek to structure our society to work according to that same Natural Law. In short, it illustrates what happens…
By the request of our resident blond: PIECES OF THE PUZZLE: Deception and Back-Door Attacks on the First Amendment As I continue to read about the past, I am beginning to see the future they wrote about being built all around us. I also become more competent at seeing through the subterfuge that has been…
“When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.“ “The question is,” said Alice, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.” “The question is,” said Humpty Dumpty, “which is to be master— that’s all.”…
Obama not only doesn’t have any clothes, the whole world knows it. Heck, Jar-Jar Binks phoned and wanted to know if there was any intelligent life left on this planet. LESSONS IN APPLIED LOGIC: Obama is Lying (Again) This will be short and sweet. Here is the story: Report: Obama to Call for End to NSA’s…
LESSONS IN LOGIC: “I was born this Way” is NOT an Excuse I am tired of people claiming that there is nothing wrong with what they do in their ‘private lives,’ or worse, that whatever they do in that ‘private life’ is OK because ‘they were born that way.’ These assertions are patently false and absurd…
FUNDAMENTALS IN NATURAL LAW: The Govt. Position on Hobby Lobby and Corporations is Correct This post will not make the majority of Christians, Conservatives or even many Libertarians very happy with me, but it is still the truth. I am not going to bother linking to it, but I am reacting specifically to the Supreme Court…
In his 1997 best-selling book, “The Innovator’s Dilemma,” Harvard Business School professor Clayton M. Christensen described disruptive technology as a new technology that unexpectedly displaces an established technology. Christensen stated that new technologies can be separated into two categories: sustaining and disruptive. Sustaining technology relies on incremental improvements to an already established technology. Disruptive technology often…
For more than 20 years I have been explaining, “science” and “results” are controlled by politicians’ monies. If the scientist’s conclusions support the politician’s goal of taking control of, and/or taxing a sector; then the “scientist” will have access to more governmental monies. If conclusions are reached which do not provide the sought after “evidence”…
D’Souza vs. Ayers at Dartmouth 30 January 2014 This is learning. Actively listen. Consider if both Ayers and D’Souza are being honest or misrepresenting truth? Evaluate the difference in their points of view. Ayers; Chicago tops Ayers list. What is Chicago’s reputation? Notice how expert Ayers is at interweaving “collective authority” and “democracy” and “social…
This one, you might want to read all the way through. I’m not saying I am correct, but I suspect you’ll agree that this is no ‘half-baked’ analysis, either. PIECES OF THE PUZZLE: Was Flight 370 Stolen because of Who was on board? I heard Limbaugh invoke Occam’s Razor this week to explain the flight…
I received a funny e-mail that I thought I would share…. Irony 1. We are told NOT TO judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics.” BUT on the other hand. “We are also encouraged TO judge ALL Gun Owners by the actions of a few lunatics.” How is that supposed to work…..??????…
Not my words, The Hills’ words: Health industry officials say ObamaCare-related premiums will double in some parts of the country, countering claims recently made by the administration. The industry complaints come less than a week after Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius sought to downplay concerns about rising premiums in the healthcare sector.…
“Under my plan, of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.” at 2:15 into the next video: “If somebody wants to build a coal powered plant they can. Its just that it will bankrupt them . . .” Hmmmm, as Joe always says, progressives can’t help but brag about their evil plans.…
