Every day it appears that I receive more and more mail. My mailbox is absolutely stuffed. When I bring the mail inside, I sit by the recycle bin and go through the process of sorting it I normally keep only one out of ten to twenty items. Why so much mail? Part of it is […]
THE BEST AND THE BRAVEST World War I saw a massive effusion of blood on battlefields all over Europe. It is difficult for us to comprehend the magnitude of the carnage. To illustrate, let’s consider the effect of that war on France. On one fateful day in August 1914 the French suffered approximately 100,000 casualties […]
I realize that I have been a very fortunate person, blessed in so many ways over the course of a very long life. I was born into a loving family and showered with affection from infancy. My father, mother, brother and sisters were exemplars of Christian living. I never experienced privation. While still a teen […]
In one of my early entries on this blog I wrote an essay entitled “Without Excuse.” It was based on a passage in Apostle Paul’s first letter to the Romans in which he declared “For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through […]
I received some interesting responses to my article on Christian Nationalism. One person observed that we are destined for disappointment if we place our faith and hopes in a government of men. Another wrote “What the nation (and the world) needs has nothing to do with who governs.” In many ways I agree with these […]

There has always been a surfeit of evil in this world, but when I was a young man there was a societal tendancy to keep the dark side under wraps. I grew up in the 1930s and 40s. The books I read were populated with men and women who were models of probity. There were […]
Yesterday on You Tube I watched a fascinating exchange between Ben Carson and a Democrat lawmaker concerning the LGBT community and the question of equal access. I believe this exchange may have taken place while Carson was still Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development under President Donald Trump. The Democrat lawmaker was […]
In recent weeks there have been several well noted incidents where biological males posing as female athletes have inlicted bodily harm on their opponents. A girls basketball team forfeited a game after three of its players were injured by a burly transgender playing for an opposing team. Similar injuries have occurred in other sporting events. […]
The House of Representatives recently convicted Alejandro Mayorkas of contempt of Congress. It remains to be seen whether the DOJ will follow up with a prison sentence, but I believe that such an outcome is highly unlikely. In the meantime, Peter Novarro and Steve Bannon are awaiting imprisonment on charges by the House Select Committee […]
