My disdain for so-called “social justice” is not because of some American conservative instinct. It is because “social justice” is confused with God’s actual intention for how humans should live. Divine justice is restoring God’s preferred order of things. It has nothing to do with the material/physical justice western minds instinctively expect. To be more…

More than a Passover
A little more on my expectations, this is simply how I look at things. I react to everything from a frame of reference. There are certain expectations based on eternal truth, things that are in the Bible as a warning about our situation in this fallen world. Regular readers can already guess at least some…
Pipe Dream from Hell
It’s a false choice to suggest that we must choose between left and right. The western logical matrix of political and economic theory excludes what God revealed as His glorious will in this fallen world. Today, I’m going to pick on libertarians in particular. I’m not referring so much to the Libertarian Party (capital “L”)…
No Common Cause
Following Christ is all-inclusive. It is not simply a side-line, something you do separate from all the other stuff in your life. Either He is Lord of all, or not Lord at all. I’m getting some feedback indicating that some of my readers cling too tightly to what is proposed by various sources as the…
It’s All Justified
Most church folks never really think about this: Following Christ is a radical change in your orientation on this life. We can hear and read talk using such language, but the pool of meaning is absent. Instead, most people simply incorporate Jesus into their existing orientation. They don’t have any trouble making Him the new…
Powers and Authorities
Without any rhetorical explanation, you should understand how yesterday’s post renders human political concerns rather insignificant. We have far more important issues than to worry about the next shift in political winds. At the same time, it’s not to say there is nothing about human politics to discuss. Rather, they become a mundane concern, instead…
Polarization Game
Now that we’ve laid a foundation for understanding mind control, let’s discuss another example of it. Let’s say that someone is scolding you for some political position, either directly or via some kind of media presentation. While the person doing the scolding may not be aware of it, what they are doing is not really…
Unreal Reality
I just imagine most of you have already figured this out: “fact checker” = professional liar. It’s one thing to chase down the details of urban legends and at least try to discern where they got started. That allows the rest of us a chance to decide if it matters. Even left-wingers (like Snopes) managed…
Nothing for Us
The mainstream western media, quite naturally, is all fully behind the Israeli slaughter of folks in Gaza, showcasing all the horror of the Palestinian attacks. Zionists own most of the mass media in the first place. Those media companies anchored in Islamic countries are cheering on the Palestinian resistance and hyping Israel’s brutality. A rather…
Digging Up Foundations
I’ve often said that I don’t debate. What that really means is that the vast majority of people who want to debate are intellectually dishonest. They aren’t willing to dig through the a priori part of their arguments. They want to start somewhere far down the road from the origins, which is rather like demanding…
