While I sort through my photos from my recent trip, which is eating into my normal writing time, here is an uncoordinated smattering of a dozen of my previously unpublished photos from 2021. (NOTE: click on the photos for a larger version)
Gunner Q has posted a fantastic article: “An Olympic-Sized Victory Lap For Christ.” Please read it. I just want to highlight one thing (emphasis added): Amen! My response to the Olympics is not to fight back but to walk away. I have previously written about this topic in “Fighting Evil …
Since my kids were very young, I would make a tradition of watching the Olympics. This generally involved unplugging a TV and moving it to the kitchen where it would be on for most of the day for two weeks. It has always been a major time commitment, but I’ve …

Feminism was never built on equality. That was just the window dressing. But some people have mistaken the PR for the real thing. This would suggest that the Red Pill, despite its valiant efforts, has failed.
In my review of Sharkly’s latest article “Do we “Resist the devil” or “Resist not evil”?” we wrestled with the question of whether or not Jesus’ commands were hyperbole. Sharkly concluded that this was hyperbole intended to use exaggeration to emphasize a forgiving attitude. In the presence of the perfectly valid law …
