Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
We are here because…choose your own reason. I believe there is a power, presence, province – a god – that has created the universe and that we, humans on planet earth, are merely an infinitesimally small part thereof and we are here for only an equally tiny span of time.
Because Jesus declared tetelestai—“it is finished”—we can live in the freedom of a salvation that is fully accomplished, not partially earned.
In John 19:30, Jesus cried out, “It Is Finished!” Many of us have heard these words, but what do these words really mean? What was finished?
Who was Jesus? It is a question that has echoed across centuries, whispered in quiet prayer, debated in universities, and argued in the streets. For Christians, the answer is not a simple label but a profound tension held together in Scripture: Jesus is both the Son of Man and the Son of God. And the confusion surrounding these titles is not accidental—it is the result of trying to compress a divine mystery into human categories.
By the 1980s and 1990s, the ideology had outgrown academia. It entered culture.
This is how psywar works: you don’t argue the premise—you embed it.
Film, television, and literature stopped asking whether humans were the problem and started asking how many humans were too many. Environmental messaging quietly shifted from stewardship to guilt. Children were framed as carbon footprints. Population decline was reframed as progress.
At the heart of this crisis lies the disintegration of the family. In God’s grand design, the family has been the primary institution for teaching right from wrong, instilling discipline, and modeling love and respect.
It’s Palm Sunday, or Passion Sunday, a day of celebration! But why do we celebrate the soon-to-take-place Crucifixion of our Lord?

I believe there is a power, presence, province – a god – that has created the universe and that we, humans on planet earth, are merely an infinitesimally small part thereof and we are here for only an equally tiny span of time. The opinions and observations …
For centuries, people have sensed that something is wrong with the world—that there are unseen forces pulling the strings behind governments, religions, wars, and ideologies.
For most of history, lies moved slowly. A king issued a proclamation. A priest told a story. A rumor drifted across a village. Today, narratives move at the speed of fiber optics, algorithmically amplified and psychologically engineered. What once required an empire now requires a social media campaign.
Though Moses stands at the center of the Exodus story, the quiet faithfulness of Miriam and Zipporah reminds us that God often advances His plans through people whose brief appearances carry lasting significance.

Since the dawn of recorded time, cultures from every corner of the earth have told tales of serpents, dragons, and lizard-like beings. They coil around our myths, slither through our sacred texts, and hiss in our collective memory. But why does the serpent show up so often—and so ominously?
Diane recites the war the Mullahs have been waging on America from the time they took over Iran. She also discusses how Democrats are gaslighting, lying and scamming the American people with their cow manure that America’s attack on Iran is unconstitutional and violates the War Powers Resolution of 1973.
Lent is a forty-day wilderness season that echoes the many forty-day periods in Scripture—especially Jesus’ time in the desert—reminding us that fasting and self-denial are not punishment but God’s way of strengthening us and drawing us closer to Him.
The temptation of Jesus Christ in the wilderness is one of those passages Christians nod at politely and then immediately ignore when Monday morning rolls around. Forty days of fasting, a barren desert, and Satan offering three proposals that look suspiciously like modern self-help advice. If you think it’s a children’s Sunday school story about resisting candy, you’ve missed the plot. It’s a masterclass in how power, identity, and survival actually work in the real world.
Some of the sharpest minds of the last century sensed the reductionist story was missing something. Carl Jung looked inward and saw conflict. The ego — the conscious “I” — wants control, moral self-justification, narrative dominance. It insists on sovereignty. Jung recognized the ego was not the whole self and that something beyond it pressed inward, demanding humility and reordering. He called that pressure the “Self.” He diagnosed the tension correctly. He simply refused to name the external authority behind it.

When Missler said we may be living in something like a simulation, he meant that physical reality functions like a user interface. We experience the front end. The underlying code — the laws, constants, and constraints — operate beneath our direct perception. Just as you don’t see the binary code behind your screen but interact with its output, we interact with a physical world governed by informational architecture we didn’t write.
