“The West cannot wage ‘war on terror’ while maintaining its dependence on Arab oil, appeasing Islamist aggression around the world, turning a blind eye to the Islamic destruction of peoples who are animists, Hindus and Christians, and allowing mass immigration of Muslims into its own lands. It risks being the star actor of a Greek …
Time Will Win
“But lately there is something desperate about Madonna’s whip cracking, something reminiscent of the fading hooker fighting to keep her street corner. But don’t misread the metaphor—this working girl does not have a heart of gold” (Martha Bayles, Hole in our Soul, pp. 334-335).
Not the Other Way Around, As Some Think
“Doctrinal work involves a positive proclamation of the truth, and a guarding against falsehood. The task of a shepherd is to gather sheep and scatter wolves” (Mother Kirk, p. 179).

Big Doings at our Place
Sorry about all the visuals. I am in a picture groove. Those of you who have been to our home may be aware that we have put our three acres together with the two acres of our neighbor to the south, along with three more acres from our neighbor to the north, and are having …
Just a Couple Stops
More fun deconstructing the epistemofadists. HT: the Pyro guys And I saw this some time ago, and thought it was one of the funnier commercials I had seen. I think that this was before I knew how to embed video clips here. In case that it so, here it is again. HT to Mark Horne …
I Love Analogies
Yes, it is true. I do love analogies. Someone who is aware of this fact suggested a hot one to Lane over at Greenbaggins. The Louisiana Presbytery’s exoneration of Steve Wilkins is like the Arizona Republican party exonerating John McCain. In response, someone in the comments asked why we shouldn’t just accept the decision of …
