Be Prepared

If you are not prepared to use force to defend civilization, then be prepared to accept barbarism.

Thomas Sowell

The Demise of the United States Marines

Earth’s manliest fighting force surrendered the demands of life’s most brutal profession to the cartoonish frivolities of leftist politics.  This is military suicide.  You don’t need a study, or a poll, and some egg-headed expert to tell you that.  It’s common sense.  

Rank-and-file Marines are being asked – no, forced – to suspend common sense, ignore human nature, and justify a lifestyle (especially when it comes to transgenderism) that’s trying to create loopholes in divine law.  Most importantly for the military, Marines are being asked to pretend that being indoctrinated into the lesbian, bisexual, gay, transgender, queen agenda has no effect on them.

Sexualizing Children

Rainbow Mafia thugs claim there is an anti-LGBTQ+ movement in the U.S. that they feel is especially important to stand against. One way they will make sure that their deviant lifestyle is promoted and spread is by “educating” children. But sexual perversion is not something children should be forced to accept. Dragooning them to think about, talk about, or explore sex and sexual peculiarities is grooming both in a political and predatory sense. Set aside the desire to be seen as morally “good” or “trendy” and you are left with parents destroying the innocence of their children. It’s making them more vulnerable and accepting of things that aren’t good for them. There is a reason some content is considered “adult” and obscene. Children do not have the faculties to properly assimilate what they are seeing and come out okay on the other side.

The Need for Wisdom

One must study wisdom to know how to do good, just as much as one must study physics to know how to do physics. If you are taught wisdom, there's a good chance you will become wise. If not, there's a good chance you will be a fool. And fools do a great deal of harm. 

But wisdom is no longer taught by most parents and nearly all schools.

Until the early decades of the 20th century, American students were expected to know the greatest sources of wisdom -- the ancient Greek and Roman writers, Shakespeare and, most important of all, the Bible.

But about 100 years ago, America embarked on the road to hell when it stopped teaching wisdom -- and what wisdom is all about, moral virtue -- when it secularized all education. First the universities and then the lower grades decided that knowledge could substitute for wisdom. Now American young people get no wisdom and, for that matter, little knowledge.

It is not a coincidence that the most foolish institutions in America and the rest of the West are the universities. They are the most radically secular.

You don't have to be religious to realize that the most secular institutions are also the most foolish institutions. You just need not to be a fool.

Dennis Prager, “If the Road to Hell Is Paved With Good Intentions, With What Do We Pave the Road to Heaven?”

Good, Ethical Role Models Needed

What society really needs more of is good, trustworthy, ethical role models in leadership positions. Not needed are untrustworthy woke role models who are graduating from a failing, increasingly dogmatic, ideological, and misguided public educational system which now includes public colleges and universities. Education is failing miserably on many counts. Only time will tell whether individualized, interactive, audio-visual computer instruction will rescue education from its deterioration, especially in poor, crime-ridden neighborhoods.

Abortion Was NEVER Constitutional

The inescapable conclusion is that a right to abortion is not deeply rooted in the Nation’s history and traditions. On the contrary, an unbroken tradition of prohibiting abortion on pain of criminal punishment persisted from the earliest days of the common law until 1973.

Supreme Court Justice Samuel J. Alito, writing for the majority in the Dobbs v. Jackson decision.

Principles Are Needed to Guide One's Life

Not having strict ethical principles to guide your life means for many a hedonistic lifestyle that can’t distinguish which behavior is good or bad, and what addictions to avoid as much as possible. The do your own thing or do what feels good philosophy often results in mental illness caused by addictions to lying, laziness, selfish behavior, promiscuity, pornography, alcohol, drugs, gambling, video games, social media, excessive shopping, and even crime. The net result is a disorganized dysfunctional brain and lifestyle filled with misery, stress, confusion, and yes, mental illness for many.

The Purpose of Education

The purpose of education is twofold: To teach students useful skills needed in life, but just as important, to teach students how to live which is what good character is all about.

Public education is failing miserably on both counts. Too many graduate without basic reading and math skills and far too many graduate without knowing the value of punctuality, dependability, orderliness, truthfulness, competence, curiosity, sharing, compromise, hard work, and family values in general. Critical race theory, which teaches kids to resent their neighbors, and sexual education, which encourages promiscuity, is definitely not something that should be taught in elementary public school.

America's Moral Compass is Broken

Modesty and Celibacy Good

Modesty makes your body more alluring. Celibacy makes sex more intimate.  We choose to protect those things, not because they are shameful, but because they are precious.
