One cannot have standards without the ability to judge and one cannot judge without having standards. Such is the necessary mutuality for ordered, civil, free societies to exist. I read Shirley Jackson’s short story “The Lottery” in the 5th grade. This article about it is an example of the operant conditioning the youth of our…
If you think of yourself as ‘Conservative,’ I beg you to read this post — all of it, to the end. However, I’ll warn you now, it will be difficult to read and harder to accept. Still, not only do you need to read what I have to say to you, but you also need…
Here are my random words of advice to those about to enter the real world from the “safe space” of the educational complex. What follows (in no particular order) is a mix of things my grandparents and parents taught me, what I learned from great philosophers and the lessons I have learned over the years…
It certainly seems that there is a significant rise in deviant behaviors in America today. Again, as I have said many times, I do not use the term “deviant” as a pejorative, it is a term with a distinct, clinical meaning – according to Webster, it means “deviating (to do something that is different or to…
Technology is killing wisdom. That’s not exactly true – it is our INABILITY to manage technology that is killing wisdom. The sheer volume of facts and the speed at which they are accessed today is only equaled by the selective bias and velocity at which these facts are considered and discarded. Studies have shown that…
FUNDAMENTALS OF NATURAL LAW: We have a Natural Right to Discriminate I have been watching this ‘debate’ over discrimination with great amusement. First of all, I shouldn’t call it a debate. In reality, it is bullying, but not by the people discriminating, but by the people who claim to be trying to stop discrimination. Their hypocrisy…
UNDERSTANDING PROPHECY: Shaking the Foundations of the Heavens and the Earth Psalm 82:5 5 They do not know nor do they understand; They walk about in darkness; All the foundations of the earth are shaken. There was a time when I used to read prophecy literally. I still believed it, but it caused problems for me. I…
UNDERSTANDING SCRIPTURE: Do You Believe in the Creator or the Lord? If you believe, I want you to ask yourself a question: Do you believe in the Creator, or do you believe in The Lord? It’s a simple question, but the answer is anything but. In fact, for those who believe, the answer is everything, so…
PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: ‘Compromise’ Negates Principles If you embrace the notions of individual rights and liberty and self-governance, then you must embrace and protect the principles and ideals of Natural Law. This is because these things come only from Natural Law and not from man. They can never come from man. By logical extension, this…
LAWLESSNESS IN THE HEADLINES: The Death of the First Amendment Have you heard? The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled it is ‘Constitutional’ for our schools to teach Christianity to students. They are not just teaching about the religion; they are teaching the religion. The Court even ruled that it is ‘Constitutional’ for our schools…
I posted a little ‘pop quiz’ on my blog. I’d like you to hop over there and take the quiz for me, please: POP QUIZ: How Many Constitutional Rights?
PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: Rand and Libertarians Reject the Key Element of Liberty I have been hard on Glenn Beck on this and especially on my other blog, The OYL. However, I do not mean to give the impression that I have anything against him, personally. It’s just that I do not like the general direction…
LAWLESSNESS IN THE HEADLINES: Obama to Use Executive Orders to End 2nd Amendment This post is actually tied to the push for ‘Net Neutrality.’ Both are lawless actions, but one demonstrates why the other is being pushed. First, let’s look at something. Here is a link to a search I did for “Obama outlaw AR ammo.’ …
AGENDAS: The Fascist Takeover of the Internet Let me ask you a question. How often have you heard the term ‘fascist’ being used to attack someone? In our society, this is a very powerful attack. In many ways, it is akin to being called a racist or a ‘homophobe.’ This term is not the property of…
PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: Rights MUST Come From God Or They Are NOT Rights Did you see or hear about the CNN debate between Chris Cuomo and the Alabama Chief Justice, Roy Moore? In that interview, Cuomo boldly asserts that rights come from government, and that the definition of words — and by extension, the laws…
PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: There is NO ‘Fairness’ Under Natural Law Posted on January 30, 2015 Now that I have addressed the principles of Natural Law as they relate to money, I think we need to address the notion of ‘fairness.’ In general, whenever we hear someone talking about ‘fairness,’ we can assume they probably mean…
PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: The Other Side of the Social Contract In the Bible, God makes covenants with His people. He promises to do certain things for those who agree to and uphold their end of the covenant. The Social Contract is no different: it is a covenant between every member of society promising certain rights…
PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: Free Speech has Limits With the killings in France, it has become popular for people in this country (The United States) to say “I am Charlie!” But that is an ignorant statement. Now, I understand that the people who are saying this mean well. They think they are supporting free speech, but…
PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: Limits of the Social Contract This nation was founded on the notion of the Social Contract. Unfortunately, too few of us know what this is, let alone what its limitations are. In fact, when it comes to the Social Contract, many people are completely ignorant on the subject — even people who…
PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL LAW: Democracy Violates Natural Law, thus, Democracy is Immoral I am tired of hearing people talk about democracy as though it were a virtue. It isn’t. In fact, democracy is immoral! This is also why I take offense to those who claim this nation is a democracy: it is not. The men and…
