Here’s Briton Melanie Phillips speaking about Muslims in Britain, and also finding excessive fault with multiculturalism (~15:00 min): For some reason, my videos still don’t embed at Alexandria, so here you go. 15:00 is a lot to ask of you, I know. I rarely watch videos other people post, and mostly the videos I want to [...]
Over at Rod’s blog, there is a discussion going on about why so many kids stop going to church when they become teenagers or young adults. Some explanations put forth included poor quality of instruction in youth groups, separation of youth from adult worship, and lack of devotion to the sacraments.

I originally posted this over at my other blog awhile back, but I decided it might be worth putting up here. Those who are old enough might get the Brady Bunch reference in the title of this post. If not, well, you’re on the Internet already–use a search engine and figure it out. I’ve been talking [...]

Both of these idiots must be really desperate. :roll:
I used to say that Christmas was a month-long holiday that started the day after Thanksgiving and ended on New Year’s Day. Now, it’s a two-month-long holiday that starts as soon as retailers have cleared out enough “90% percent off!” Halloween candy to make room for the Christmas tree displays, and ends after the last [...]

Click here, here, here, and here. Just a little taste of what you are going to read: An opening statement is not evidence, merely a preview of the case the prosecution will mount in coming weeks based on testimony, forensics, wiretaps, documents and a plethora of photos. The crux of it: That parents and 18-year-old [...]

Remember what I said about Islamofacism being a problem? This right here, is what am referring to. This comes via Facebook: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaFwKp9OdTc] Now, do I agree with what this guy is saying? Pretty much, yes. he is correct about the moderate Muslims and their cowardice. Wild Bill for America’s Website Wild Bill for America’s YouTube [...]

A while back this guy in this video talked about balancing the budget and it was a viral sensation. Here is his new video that talks about child support. Now, I must warn you, this is some seriously hardcore stuff; straight out the ghetto and all that. So, consider this your official CONTENT WARNING. This [...]

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBYhzc0M3LU] There do seem to be two sides to this argument. Check out the exchange over at The National Review Online’s blog, the corner, between Andy McCarthy and Kevin Williamson Also, for good measure check out AllahPundit over Hotair’s feelings about it too. Just a short fun fact, AllahPundit was within 5 miles of the trade [...]
It’s funny when educated people pay think tanks to find things out, that we common folk know already. The Story via WorldNetDaily: A two-year study of graduates from Catholic, Protestant and home schools found the choice of private education, when compared to public education, had significant effects on the students’ academics, civics and faith – [...]

Adam and Eve weren’t real people. Why? The Bible tells us so. Let me back up. Recently published by NPR, this article discusses the Evangelical trend of late in “not believing” Adam and Eve were real people. Evidence cited relies heavily on science (mapping the human genome and evolution) to which the rest of the world (non-literalist, [...]

I offered what might have been taken as a one-off comment on another thread. I went through a cycle of emotions: pleased with myself for its construction, anxious about possible responses to it, then grand annoyance that no one even deigned to cast a jaundiced eye upon it. To salve my fragile and precious ego, [...]
I hate having to write blog entries like this; mainly, because I happen to like Rick Perry. However, because I am a blogger of the truth — and because I do not want to see Rick Perry wounded in the election. I am bringing this point up. Rick Perry has a religious wacko problem and [...]
I feel the need to write about something, which has been bugging me for a while now. I had always known that there was a certain subset of the Conservative movement, which was Anti-Semitic and racist. However, I felt that I could disagree with those people and still call myself a Paleo-Conservative. Indeed, I do [...]

Sarah Palin once again is opening her mouth, before engaging her brain: Barack Obama’s big government policies continue to fail. He should put a link to the national debt clock on his BlackBerry. The gears on that clock have nearly exploded during his administration. Yesterday’s terrible job numbers should not be a surprise because it [...]
This article on Salon.com today is a fascinating follow-up to the recently released report, commissioned by the U.S. bishops, on abuse in the Catholic Church. The thrust of the article is that the media grossly misunderstood and distorted the findings, failing to see any of the nuance and complexity discussed in the actual report. I’d [...]
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeM_6DHHg4U&feature=player_detailpage] Why? Because of all the hoopla the party now faces, due to Weiner’s sexting misappropriations? Or, his resignation may be the final breath to the nonsense-turned-fiasco because instead of dealing with a modicum of integrity, the otherwise likeable New York congressman allegedly lied about the incident/s. Like many of his predecessors-politicians with extramarital or freaky deak shenanigans [...]
In this thread here yesterday, some idiot did a drive by and claimed that Al-Qaeda did not exist. I deleted it, because it sounded so stupid. I wish now that I kept it. Anyhow, here we go: (CNN) — Yemeni security forces abandoned a key coastal city to Islamic militants, residents of the city told [...]

From the left: We might ask ourselves how we would be reacting if Iraqi commandos landed at George W. Bush’s compound, assassinated him, and dumped his body in the Atlantic. Uncontroversially, his crimes vastly exceed bin Laden’s, and he is not a “suspect” but uncontroversially the “decider” who gave the orders to commit the “supreme [...]
