I wrote this article on the Reformation several years ago. I am republishing it now, on on the eve of Reformation Day 2022, for the benefit of those who may be new to this blog. Church historians, Catholic and Protestant, may be able to correct me on certain points, but I believe this to be […]
Perhaps 60% of American voters are hard-wired. If you pin a party label on a pig, 30% of voters would vote for that pig if the label identified it as a Democrat; another 30% would support the same pig if the label read Republican. During an election, the real effort is to gain votes from […]
Over the past several years, the steady stream of incriminating information forced me to believe it even before now, but recent disclosures in John Durham’s trial of Igor Danchenko and others should prove to everyone that there is corruption in the very highest echelons of the FBI and Department of Justice.

My son Stuart McGuire Jordan recently published Beneath the Black Walnut: A Jordan Genealogy. This was the second and much improved edition of this book.. Quoting from the introduction: “The Samuel Jordan who arrived in Jamestown in 1610 is thought to have been the first of our family name in English America. Thomas Jordan of […]
(I copied the following from an internet site last week. Unfortunately, I failed to note the source for proper credit. ) “Broadway is giving our founding fathers gender reassignment surgery. “The new Broadway revival of the classic musical 1776 features a cast comprised entirely of women, transgender, and “non-binary” actors. The woke staging, courtesy of the prestigious Roundabout […]
The ongoing gender war is madness. The LGBT+ Community is pushing the concept of there being a variety of genders beyond male and female. It is absolute nonsense, but they seem to have the all-out support of progressives, and that includes the Democrat Party leadership and its allies in the media and academia. As for […]
