A few weeks ago, Nancy and I watched a movie we really enjoyed. The cinematography appears to have been done by Andrew Wyeth, with the whole movie powerful and understated. You have the clear and satisfying sense of having been told a story. The good church folks in it are blinkered and provincial, but are …

Sexual Orthodoxy
Things are pretty grim in Canada. Those who are up for a little appalling reading, and who still need to be convinced of my thesis statement, are encouraged to check it out here, here, here, here, here, here, and here. HT: The Pearcey Report One case involves a Pastor Boissoin, who wrote a letter to …
Another Outrage on the Public Weal
So then, as it turns out, the California Supreme Court perpetrated a vicious hate crime against bisexuals. In a decision that reminded civilized observers everywhere of the smell of cooking cabbage, the seven robed judicialbots did what they did, and all the diversity advancement that progressives have been whining about interminably coughed quietly and died. …
Look at the Warts Right
I need to explain the background of this one first. Other than the news and an occasional football game, our family has not really been a big teevee watching family. As a result, my ignorance of the world of sitcoms is nearly perfect, which led to the obvious conclusion — I need to blog about …
Tom Wolfe’s Uncanny Prophetic Powers
As everyone knows by now, Eliot Spitzer has apparently disgraced his office through his use of spendy hookers. He did this having made a name for himself as the Law, prosecuting sundry others, and showing No Mercy in his various rampages. Having made enemies in any number of directions, it turns out that he is …
How Big a Problem is Porn?
Here is some good news, I guess, depending on how you look at it, but bear with me for a moment. I have long had trouble with people who try to encourage or alarm us with raw numbers alone. Raw numbers alone are often a very misleading part of the story. An example would be …
Serious Filums
A few days ago I stumbled across a documentary on the trials of movie makers in dealing with Hollywood’s rating association, the one that supplies ratings for filums. I didn’t watch it long, and what I did watch was kind of choppy because the raunchy clips required channel-switching, but still it was quite informative. The …
Sex, Sexuality, Gender and Everything In Between
It looks as though Wheaton has had a speaker (Jim Wallis) who (according to this report) believes that homosexual rights issues are biblical “justice” issues, and who is in favor of civil unions for homosexuals. Let’s work with this for a moment. The problem is not that Wheaton is having a speaker with such convictions. …
Disrobed and Dismantled
For obvious reasons, I won’t link to it directly, but Drudge has informed us that Lindsey Lohan, the troubled young actress, has now reenacted a famous cheesecake photo shoot of Marilyn Monroe’s. This is another great example of the fraudulent pretensions of feminism — I think it can safely be said that we are now …
