Weak Patriarchy

One of my more common criticisms of the Christian (or Dalrockian) Manospherian commentariat is the relative popularity of, what I’ve termed, weak patriarchy. Patriarchy proper involves strong gender roles built upon male dominance and female submission. But in a non-patriarchal culture, one with egalitarian laws, patriarchy just isn’t possible, even theoretically within a …

It’s Not About The Sacraments

The Gospel and the Sacraments (NOTE: I have a history with this commentator. See here) This is a deeply ironic comment. “Sacraments” are historical anachronism. The Apostles and the early church preached the gospel alone. The church knew nothing about sacraments, a concept that would only begin to be formalized …

On Withdrawing

Here is the primary reason that I started anonymizing certain quotations and ultimately withdrew from the Manosphere and from specific commenters: This is how a single normie blue-pilled man like Charlie Kirk could have significantly greater reach and impact than pretty much every red-pilled man combined. The validity of the …

Hebrew Abstractions

Recently, I wrote an article entitled “Hebrew Abstraction” where I pointed out that the Hebrews had abstractions in their language (and, by logical implication, their day-to-day practice). Well, my post proved to be rather prophetic, in light of the following: For a religion based on Ancient Near East principles and …

On Equality (An Essay)

Blankslatism is the belief that everyone is inherently equal because everyone starts from the same blank slate. To the full blankslatist, inequality is viewed as the ultimate threat and the greatest sin. The natural consequence, therefore, is to force equality at every possible step. In theory this is supposed to …

On the Nature of Evil

NOTE TO THE READER: If you wish to watch the very graphic murder of Iryna Zarutska, you can find it here. I have not watched it—and will not—because I cannot bear to witness such a display of evil. The images above are bad enough to provoke tears. Moreover, many people who …

Blankslatism Strikes Again!

Bruce Charlton likes to write about how every person is a kind of spiritual being that preexists their incarnation. He calls them “pre-mortal spirits.” He notes, rightly, that a soul by itself is lesser than a soul with a body. This is why, after we have died, we receive a …

Blankslatism Strikes Again!

I talk about Blankslatism a lot because there is massive resistance to the idea that politically right-wing (like Republicans) and far-right groups (like the Manosphere) can’t be blankslatists because blankslatism is a politically leftist. It has been quite difficult for me to convince anyone that the Manosphere is deeply leftist, …

9/11 Happened

Tomorrow is 9/11 in America. Today—9/10—the following events dominated: The senseless murder of Iryna Karutska on a train in Charlotte, NC by a crazed black man. The assassination of Charlie Kirk Another school shooting in Colorado. And there are some major events in the rest of the world: Russian drones …

What The Bible Says About Donations

It’s funny that men in the Manosphere will complain about divisions and a lack of unity and then silently and uncritically put up with—or, far worse, approve of—spurious and unbiblical judgmental attacks like this: This is simply a moral inversion. Deep Strength would have a man give publicly while keeping …
