“Since it has been established by the Supremes that homosexual mirage is a constitutionally protected activity, please outline for me what legal argument(s) you will use to defend my constitutional right to argue publicly from the pulpit that their constitutional right must be taken away” (Same Sex Mirage, pp. 84-5).
The Next Chapter in LGBTQ History
“This battle is over social and cultural approval. The battle is happening because a particular class of persons wants their sexual perversion to be their ticket into the high nobility of the civil rights movement—what they want is for the march to be from Selma to Sodom, not realizing it then proceeds from Sodom to …
Where Caesar’s Image Isn’t

Still Not Impressed With Social Justice?
Introduction: We continue our lessons in social justice arising out of systems or narratives of social justification, and so it behooves us—do you not agree that behooves needs to get back into wider circulation?—it behooves us to look at a number of examples. I am thinking about Trump, and Samson, and King David, and Joel …
An Inescapable Burden of Glory
