Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
James Atticus Bowden 
Usually, Sunday is when I pen (actually peck out) my weekly Op Ed. What else should be written on Easter, other than Easter? It’s the singularly greatest event since the creation of the Universe. The point in time and space when the Creator of the Universe reconciled His created beings to Himself. The Creator becoming one of his creations in the Incarnation is huge, but not as big as the Resurrection.
There’s always good news for Bible-based Evangelicals in the Good News of Lord Jesus Christ. His Resurrection is celebrated every Sunday. And, there’s good news in numbers, despite the gloom and doom data painting a Post-Christian America and death spiral for Western Civilization. Bible-based Evangelical Protestants are growing – not as much as non-Believers and way less than possible, but growing. Growing is good.
What’s up with the back and forth Protestant/Catholic baiting on X? Is it just for clicks?
As my oldest grandchildren enter adulthood, I talk to them as best I can about what matters in life. As I write this, I realize I need to say more, clearly, directly, and more often. Because, living at the short end of the candle I believe my rear view vision is 20/20.
The Left (I just call them Bolsheviks nowadays) claims words are violence to shut people up. They police speech because the lies of Cultural Marxism and barbarian Islam can’t compete with the truth.
February 28, 2026 is another Red Letter Day in history. It’s so amazing to be alive and witness it like a spectator sport from the safety of America. The U.S. and Israeli attack on Iran is an international reset.
American Cultural Marxism is the step-by-step march through the seven institutions that shape American society, culture, and Civilization.
Samuel Huntington’s “Clash of Civilizations” is meeting Orwells’ “1984’ in the UK. Right now. Rupert Lowe’s brand new political party, Restore Britain, promises massive deportations. This is a time of choosing for the UK, the US, and Western Civilization.
President Trump’s Republican Administration and Republicans in both Houses of Congress can work together to lose their majority. All they have to do is keep doing and not doing what they are now.
If you hate your political opponents so much that you bring in foreigners to stay in power, you’ve set the stage for a civil war. A civil war unbound by the Geneva Convention
In 2020 Virginians voted to take re-districting away from politicians. We, The People, voted overwhelmingly for a non-partisan commission to fairly draw our electoral districts.
In Virginia, the Democrats have all the levers of power at the state level for at least 2 years. A Muslim took her oath of office on the Koran. The Democrats – I prefer to more accurately name them as the Bolsheviks they are – have a statewide majority. Ugh. But, despair not, Virginians. It’ll be a rough go, but we must never, never, never, never quit.
Every abortion is a bloody mess. Virginia Democrats are making a mess of the Virginia Constitution with a “Right to Reproductive Freedom. They’re determined to make killing a baby in the womb an “individual” right.
Almost 400 years ago, livery stable owner Thomas Hobson offered customers the choice of the horse in the stall nearest to the door or taking none at all. Obviously, that’s no choice at all. The two Party corruption of American politics leaves the voters no choice at all.
80 years ago World War 2 ended. The remnants of the generations that lived that war and four 20-year generations of Germans born after the war are (unfairly) burdened with guilt and shame.
An American believes in the American Creed, assimilates, and accepts America as a common heritage and a personal trust.
Obviously, the Christian message about the Creator and Sovereign of the Universe sending part of himself to be human and experience his own creation is the hallmark of December.
Across Western Civilization immigration becomes invasion when the number of immigrants exceeds the capacity or the capability to assimilate them.
In Part 3 we’ll talk about the modifiers which make our American Revolution so unique. Like American Enlightenment, Dissident Protestant, 4 Regional Sub-Cultures, Well-Armed, and Ancestral Rights.
Our perspective is quite different from the PC, CRT, uber-revisionist view of the Ken Burns PBS series re-imagining the American Revolution. In Part 1 we got the Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF) on what was the American Revolution. Which led to the Biblical Worldview of the American Revolution. That’s a big deal, because it frames …
