There is something grotesque about people living thousands of miles away, in safety and comfort, loftily second-guessing and trying to micro-manage what the Israelis are doing in a matter of life and death.

In America today, to object to sexually immoral activity and lifestyles is, culturally speaking, to engage in evil. Failure to affirm sexual immorality, such as homosexuality or “transgenderism,” as legitimate and wholly appropriate expressions of human sexuality is seen as “hate.”
Making matters even more convoluted was the U.S. Supreme Court’s Obergefell v. Hodges ruling redefining marriage to include homosexual relationships. This fundamental redefining of what constitutes a nuclear family has only fueled social confusion and moral rot. Now, even recognizing the basic binary nature of sex is controversial.

One of the beautiful boasts of our municipal jurisprudence is that Christianity is a part of the Common Law. There never has been a period in which the Common Law did not recognize Christianity as lying at its foundations. I verily believe that Christianity is necessary to the support of civil society.

The less talent they have, the more pride, vanity and arrogance they have. All these fools, however, find other fools who applaud them.

Many Americans have come to see in recent years that the LGBT agenda was never about love and tolerance, but about forcing every imaginable type of perversity and debauchery in our faces.
Even children have not been exempt from this. In fact, a strong argument could be made that they were the ultimate target of that perversity and debauchery.
After the LGBT movement gained cultural acceptance and even dominance, it redoubled its efforts to evangelize children. Paul Lynde’s Uncle Arthur from “Bewitched” might have been a modest early attempt to win innocent youth, but as time passed the movement got more creative and aggressive, eventually booting up events specifically targeting the family.

Read the whole article if you have courage enough to see the example. Disgusting is too weak of a word for this.
It was Thomas Edison who brought us electricity, not the Sierra Club. It was the Wright brothers who got us off the ground, not the Federal Aviation Administration. It was Henry Ford who ended the isolation of millions of Americans by making the automobile affordable, not Ralph Nader.
Those who have helped the poor the most have not been those who have gone around loudly expressing "compassion" for the poor, but those who found ways to make industry more productive and distribution more efficient, so that the poor of today can afford things that the affluent of yesterday could only dream about.

There have always been ignorant people, but they haven't always had college degrees to make them unaware of their ignorance. Some people imagine that they are well informed because they have memorized a whole galaxy of trendy dogmas and fashionable attitude.

Much of what are called “social problems” consists of the fact that intellectuals have theories that do not fit the real world. From this they conclude that it is the real world which is wrong and needs changing.

Consent to evil a little, and a great evil will overwhelm us, till no tongue crying out against it will be heard any more. That of which we should have been master will be the master of us. No shame or remorse will save us then. Therefore consent not to this evil at all.
Alan Paton, cited by Martin Gilbert, A History of the Twentieth Century, Volume Two: 1933-1951, pg.772
When an opponent declares, “I will not come over to your side, and you will not get me on your side,” I calmly say, “Your child belongs to me already. A people lives forever. What are you? You will pass on. You descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.”
Adolf Hitler, 11/6/33, Elbing, East Prussia.
Doesn’t this sound like LEFTISTS and Democrats today? Public schools and colleges have been indoctrinating our children to their side.
Wokeness largely arises from unmarried, childless young women creating and self-selecting into psychosocial environments that validate their heightened tendencies toward guilt, shame, and altruism, while offering a channel to fulfill their otherwise unmet nurturing needs."
Hold fast to the Bible. To the influence of this Book we are indebted for all progress made in true civilization and to this we must look as our guide in the future.

What started out decades ago as the statement, “What we do in our bedrooms is our own business,” has now morphed into, “Celebrate the many ways we indoctrinate and transform your children into our own image and devious lifestyle.”
