JRR Tolkien was not only the prolific writer of the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit series, he was a lifetime Catholic who also had the pleasure of leading CS Lewis to Jesus Christ. The Tolkien Society, of which Tolkien himself was once president, is celebrating his works with a series of essays including: “TransgenderContinue reading “Lord of the…Intersectional Identities?”

Faith, Communion and Two Roads
We begin today again talking about the president and the continuing saga of Catholic bishops that are fighting to either accept him as a flawed human or hold him to the standard of the Catholic church. I’ve been thinking about this issue and I have a few more thoughts so today we are going toContinue reading “Faith, Communion and Two Roads”
They always want fewer people!
Why does the left always want to have fewer people on this earth? They consistently vote for and propose and fight for measures that remove people from the planet. My value, and this is based on Biblical value, is to allow the most people the best life possible. God has created every human soul uniqueContinue reading “They always want fewer people!”
The Road to Hell
Jesus says, “I am the vine and you are the branches.” We are made to be connected to Jesus and our identity is an outgrowth of God as we are made in the image of God. The world continues to tell you that you should just ‘be yourself,’ but there is no discussion of howContinue reading “The Road to Hell”
How can you protect yourself from evil?

I pledge allegiance to the flag,
But I’m just not sure which one… The American flag represents the country and the values therein. To put another flag up with the American flag at a US Embassy, is to give the full weight of the country of America and all of its values. This says the additional flag is of the sameContinue reading “I pledge allegiance to the flag,”
Et Tu, Lego?
Toys, cartoons and breakfast food, is nothing sacred? They are targeting our children and using kids to do it. This is not about tolerance, this is not about acceptance, this is not about equity or equality or whatever. This is about destroying the family. When you remake the family outside of the natural order, not onlyContinue reading “Et Tu, Lego?”
Philosophy Friday – Socrates and Paul
Modern America is much like Ancient Athens. Yeah, I know that sounds impossible and no, we don’t speak Greek or wear funny robes, but the way we speak is still, after thousands of years, much the same. I’d like to tell you a story about Socrates, the Epicureans and Stoics, and the Apostle Paul. WeContinue reading “Philosophy Friday – Socrates and Paul”
Witches, Tarot and Spells: What could go wrong?
It seems that the culture is increasingly spiritual, but not in a Biblical way. Today we are looking at the rise in witchcraft, tarot and spells and what God thinks of all of that. (Spoiler: God doesn’t love it.) Many surveys and smarter people than me have made the observation that we are now inContinue reading “Witches, Tarot and Spells: What could go wrong?”
