Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Although it’s presented as a political battle, what we see in America has all the earmarks of a doctrinal struggle between God and His opposite. We should have realized a long time ago that the battle raging across America, in its streets and its cultural institutions, is a Holy War.

With Progressives fighting for cultural ascendance, we are entering an ideological Twilight Zone that’s bad for America, but really great for a blogger. Hold onto your hats, my friends, because this is going to be a huge collection of all things interesting, mostly relating to the madness emanating from today’s
Continue readingYes, I like Tim Tebow. I like his eclectic playing style, I like his deep commitment to his non-hate-filled religious principles, and I like that he’s been raking in money and basking in fame for a few years without being involved in a sordid scandal. The same things that I
Continue readingTim Tebow: star athlete, missionary, works with children, model for abstinence and respect. All around good guy. Gets flak — yes, flak — for his suggestion that athletes, because America’s youth so admires them, should behave well (i.e., stop drinking, drugging, whoring, and trash-talking): He has also stirred controversy by
Continue readingI don’t know if I’ve mentioned this here before, but my dog is perfect. Her perfection isn’t always obvious to the uninitiated. Those who don’t know what’s really important might think that, because she’s a mutt, she’s a little goofy looking. They may feel that her habit of slipping on
Continue readingSome time ago, I don’t know when, I posted on this blog John Parr’s St. Elmo’s Fire, a song I’ve always liked. (For those of us who were young in the 80s, the music magic never dies.) As a Tim Tebow admirer, I’m therefore very pleased to present John Parr’s
Continue readingI’m very suspicious of “studies.” As a liberal, I was ready to trust anything that came out of academia. As a conservative, I’m suspicious of academia, because I know it’s more interested in specific outcomes than in the scientific method. A good example of this is a survey that was
Continue readingPlease, please, please tell me the Rabbi was writing with tongue fixed firmly in cheek: I’ve got a Tim Tebow problem. I want to root for the guy, but I’m afraid of what will happen if the hulky Denver Bronco quarterback continues to pull off what is fast becoming the
Continue readingWell, I finally got around to seeing The Blind Side. For those unfamiliar with the movie, it retells the true story of Michael Oher, a profoundly disadvantaged black boy who ended up as a scholarship student at a Christian academy in Memphis. Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, parents at the
Continue readingI commented earlier that Focus on the Family handled the whole Tebow ad brilliantly, by letting the Left get hysterical in advance, only to be confronted by a completely innocuous ad in which Pam Tebow talks about times when she worried about Tim’s life. With its preemptive frothing, the Left
Continue readingI think that Focus on the Family took a page out of Andrew Breitbart’s book. They dangled a little information in front of the liberals, and then let them self-immolate. In response to the notion that Tebow and his mom were going to make a pro-Life commercial, the Left went
Continue readingThis is an entirely hypothetical scenario, because my daughter is only 12, and I’m not planning on her dating for at least another fifteen or twenty years, if not more. However, the sad fact is that, contrary to my entirely reasonable wishes, the dating scene is going to start in
