Introduction Allow me to begin by saying that someone really needs to start defending privilege. It needs to be lauded as a good thing, an admirable thing, a blessing from Heaven. If someone doesn’t start defending privilege pretty soon, we could eventually get to the point … [Read more...]
The Answer to White Racism, White Fragility, Black Fragility, and Black Racism Is Always the Gospel
Some of you may not have seen this one. I have had a number of my blog posts on racism gathered into one e-book. You may click here, or on the cover below in order to get to the Mablog e-tail outlet. The cost is one clam for shipping and handling. You have no idea how many ones … [Read more...]
Simper Reformanda
So I need to say just a couple more things about the Southern Baptist resolution and the alt-right. In the interests of time, I will pay close attention to the interests of time. An intelligent and non-screechy rejoinder to my piece can be found here, and I commend it to you … [Read more...]

The Huffington Puffington Post
So it is apparently time to have a little bit of fun with The Huffington Post. I got a call a week or so ago from a HuffPo reporter, who interviewed me about the founding of Logos School, along with the founding of the Association of Classical Christian Schools. The interview … [Read more...]
