The Modern Muslim Invasion

Watch Europe cower under the heel of Islamists who have not forgotten that they were stopped from overtaking Europe and beaten back by Charles Martel thirteen centuries ago. Now, with patience and the clever control of demographics and a gullible media, they stand by, ready to one day take over the structures and edifices built by a different ethic and a different belief system. It is only a matter of time, and they are in no hurry. Thirteen centuries ago, Europe was able to stop the theocratic Islamic tidal wave because it had a faith to defend. The value-less culture of today will not be able to withstand the attack.

The USA Has Died

 The life of the nation is secure only while the nation is honest, truthful, and virtuous.

Are Democrats a Political Party?

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance  cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Dwight D. Eisenhower, 3/6/56. 

Totalitarianism Won’t Win

Totalitarianism will never win in the end—but it can win long enough to destroy a civilization. That is what is ultimately at stake in the fight we are in. We can see today the totalitarian impulse among powerful forces in our politics and culture. We can see it in the rise and imposition of doublethink, and we can see it in the increasing attempt to rewrite our history.

Larry P. Arnn, Orwell’s 1984 and Today.

The Meaning of “One Flesh” Marriage

The one flesh marriage is not just a physical phenomenon, but a uniting of the totality of two personalities. In marriage, we are one flesh spiritually by vow, economically by sharing, logistically by adjusting time and agreeing on the disbursement of all life’s resources, experientially by trudging through the dark valleys and standing victoriously on the peaks of success, and sexually by the bonding of our bodies.

Dr. Louis H. Evans, Jr.  Cited in Preparing for Marriage, General Editor Dennis Rainey

We NEED Informed Patriotism More Than Ever

An informed patriotism is what we want. Are we doing a good enough job teaching our children what America is and what she represents in the long history of the world?” 

Those of us who are over 35 or so years of age grew up in a different America. We were taught, very directly, what it means to be an American. And we absorbed, almost in the air, a love of country and an appreciation of its institutions. If you didn’t get these things from your family you got them from the neighborhood, from the father down the street who fought in Korea or the family who lost someone at Anzio. Or you could get a sense of patriotism from school. And if all else failed you could get a sense of patriotism from the popular culture. The movies celebrated democratic values and implicitly reinforced the idea that America was special. TV was like that, too, through the mid-sixties.

But now, we’re about to enter the [1990s], and some things have changed. Younger parents aren’t sure that an unambivalent appreciation of America is the right thing to teach modern children. And as for those who create the popular culture, well-grounded patriotism is no longer the style. . . . We’ve got to do a better job of getting across that America is freedom—freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of enterprise. And freedom is special and rare. It’s fragile; it needs protection.

So, we’ve got to teach history based not on what’s in fashion but what’s important—why the Pilgrims came here, who Jimmy Doolittle was, and what those 30 seconds over Tokyo meant. You know, four years ago on the 40th anniversary of D-Day, I read a letter from a young woman writing to her late father, who’d fought on Omaha Beach. . . . [S]he said, “we will always remember, we will never forget what the boys of Normandy did.” Well, let’s help her keep her word. If we forget what we did, we won’t know who we are. I’m warning of an eradication of the American memory that could result, ultimately, in an erosion of the American spirit.

These Again Are Times That Try Men’s Souls

These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated.

Thomas Paine (1737-1809)

We Must Fight to Keep Liberty

Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their grandchildren are once more slaves.

D.H. Lawrence

Sex MUST Go With Marriage

Christian young people often ask me how far they can go, not even realizing that once you are on that road, it can only lead to harm. This is not because sex is bad but because it is so powerful and can easily destroy what is so good. When you try to possess this enjoyment in a relationship outside of marriage, it will bring destruction.... 

If you find yourself even thinking in the direction of sex, you had better ask yourself why you are not thinking about marriage. If you are thinking about marriage, it should be with serious-mindedness and the intention of establishing a Christian home.

Public Schools Kill Our Culture

You don’t have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.

Marriage is Better Than Cohabiting

Compared to their married peers, cohabiters consistently have lower rates of well-being than married people. Why? Because cohabiting relationships are ambiguous. Usually each partner has a different understanding of the nature and future of the relationship. In marriage the couple is clear about the claim they have on each other. Husbands are more likely to come home after work and not stay out all night with the guys than boyfriends are. Wives and husbands are not as likely to flirt with others outside the relationship. Marriage helps them know who they belong to emotionally and sexually.
