Feminism and Equality
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.
Is Matthew 5 Hyperbole?
In my review of a latest article “Do we “Resist the devil” or “Resist not evil”?” we wrestled with the question of whether or not Jesus’ commands were hyperbole. The author concluded that this was hyperbole intended to use exaggeration to emphasize a forgiving attitude. In the presence of the perfectly valid …
Elegance or Simplicity?
I want to illustrate something with some comments that you might have seen. The first set is here from Jack @ Sigma Frame (emphasis added): The second is from a commenter here on this blog (emphasis added): Both of these are answered in this comment: Simple and elegant. Irony.
Eschatology Q&A
This is the follow up to “A Decree to Rebuild.” I read a lot of Bruce Charlton’s writings and frequently quote his work. He’s very good at getting at the root of problems, rather than dealing with the surface-level distractions. I apologize in advance for this lengthy quote, but it …
Take the Pill
Here is a comment by someone. Let’s see if we agree. Sure, no problem. Seems reasonable, if perhaps a bit trite and obvious. I doubt anyone would object to having these things. Absolutely. If there is one thing that I’ve been saying a lot lately, it is that men of …

Over at Radix Fidem, Ed Hurst has begun a series on Eschatology, and he started with Daniel 9, specifically this part about the Seventy Weeks: Hurst made some very curious assertions that I’d like to point out, but ultimately find his conclusion to be utterly fascinating. Please hold your judgments …
Repentance
I’ve written a lot about dishonesty in the Manosphere, including (and especially) from those who call others liars. This includes: “Absolutely Mystified” “Habitually Being Wrong” “It’s Always Someone Else’s Problem” “Anonymity and Plagiarism” “Deti on Hypocrisy” “Sectarianism” “Everyone’s a Genius” “The Living Voice” “Ambiguity in the Bible” “1 Corinthians 14:34-35” …

Review: Do we “Resist the devil” or “Resist not evil”?
This is a review of one author’s latest “Do we “Resist the devil” or “Resist not evil”?” Therein he discusses whether or not the Bible teaches nonresistance. Coincidentally, over the last couple of weeks a commenter and I had both been musing over this topic. We briefly shared some sources with …
