Make America Whole Again
Republicans cannot succeed merely by pointing out the failures of the Biden administration. They must offer Americans something more.
Re-constructing History, Part 8: First, Do no Harm
Part 8 looks at the charge in the Hippocratic Oath, “first, do no harm”.
1619 seeks to re-write American history to show slavery is at the root of every institution in the US. CRT aims to show this as well as with the concepts of institutional racism, white supremacy, white privilege, and white fragility. Part 4 of the Maskirovka series covers these issues. The question is whether the Social Justice Warriors (SJW) employ these concepts to excise a cancer or to kill the current social structures and institutions. If they argue racism is permanently rooted in every social structure and institution in America, then they argue for a wholesale restructuring of American society and new institutions that are not tainted with slavery and racism.
This path does harm on several dimensions. Harm that may be far worse than the disease. There are many sites that provide arguments against CRT and 1619, so I will focus on the harm they cause, regardless of any merit they may possess.

Walking to Jerusalem
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about Jesus’ final journey to Jerusalem (Road Trip!). In summary, Jesus started that final trip in a great crowd, but when He made His final steps, He was alone. Of course, we know that the cross was not the end of the story, and with the Resurrection, …

A Very Minor Omission In The Philadelphia Inquirer
I use the term ‘journolism’ to refer to heavily biased reporting. It’s not a misspelling: my of spelling ‘journolist’ or ‘journolism’ comes from JournoList, an email list of 400 influential and politically liberal journalists, the exposure of which called into question their objectivity. Many times biased journalism comes not from stating something false, but the …
Staying Sane In A Brandon World

To College or Not to College
More and more high school students are expressing a lack of interest in attending four-year schools. They often cite student debt as a reason. Really that is about cost vs. value.

Reconstructing History, Part 7: Conflict, History, and the Future
Social Justice movements do not try to re-construct American history because they do not like it. They do it to break the historical path dependency and set a new future based on their ideology. The questions are:
Do they have the power to completely break the path?
Will other forces counter-act them?
Liberals Don’t Know What to Do After Chick-fil-A Becomes a Major Source of Renewable Energy
