Introduction: In this next chapter, some of the Caleb Campbell's motivations became a lot more apparent to me, and it actually had the effect of generating some sympathy for him. I will get to that ...

And Nature Forbids Some Things and Not Others
“Scripture says nothing explicitly about sex-change operations, and Scriptures says nothing explicit about dental work. So if we restrict ourselves to a tight biblicism, we are going to be forced into an agnosticism that will take us where we really do not want to go. But here is the thing. Scripture is not silent whether or not nature is silent.”

Rushdoony at the Mic
“Rushdoony was a man who was willing to whittle his theonomic stick until it had a pointed, jabby end. And then he would walk up to the classical liberal order in order to poke it. He would then want to ask some follow-up questions.”
Letters to Make Us Pause and Reflect
Letter to the Editor: Red Dress ReductivismThat was funny, cheeky, and entirely appropriate. It would be interesting to learn whether those two women were also wearing blue stockings… ...
An Invisible Football Game
“The secularists are currently running a play on us. We need to figure out that play and counter it. Actually, I need to modify the image. They are not running a play. They have run the same play about twenty times in a row, and they have scored each time. They are breathing hard from the touchdown dances. The game’s not even over, and half of our team is back in the locker room, putting R2K stickers on their helmets, looking for the true football game whose maker and builder is God.”

Evolutionary End Products Have No Rights
“We are endowed with our rights by a Creator. If no Creator, then no rights. Put another way, Darwin hates you.”
Despite Our Devout Wishes
“In the classical liberal order, there was an arbitrary desire to hang the rights of man on a great big invisible sky hook. But whenever you bolt this sky hook into the azure blue, it does not much matter how many extra Kantian bolts you use—the thing will simply not stay up there.”
Put On Your Red Dress, Baby
This last Lord’s Day, I had the very great privilege of preaching at our Christ Church DC church plant. The folks there are wonderful, hard working, and highly organized. This promises to be a very fruitful work indeed. This venture was plainly prompted by the Lord, and was clearly an answer to the prayers of …

The Mystery of the Gentiles: Introduction: In Pauline terms, a mystery is not something that is hidden away from sight. Rather, a mystery is something that was for long ages hidden away, but which ...
More Secure, Not Less
“The free speech rights of the average nonbeliever would be far more secure in a Christian republic than they currently are in this epistemic fun house of ours. If you want free speech protected, not absolutely, but fairly and generally, in a way consistent with decency and good order, then you should ask the Christians. They know how to do it. Secular pagans don’t know how to do it and, moreover, have no desire to do it. It is not one of their values.”
