Doctor of Orthodoxy, Champion of the Faith

As a child, he baptized his friends, only to have the bishop say he did it right. As a deacon, he guarded the Truth of Christ’s full divinity and full humanity. When it was said that the whole world was against him, he responded: “Then I am against the world.” As a bishop and patriarch,…

Left vs. Left

A puzzling conflict rages today. Admittedly, it has been going on for some time now, especially since every Western leftist should be in the course of wild eyed revelry since the Big Bad Orangeman is gone. If you’re not on the modern left of the political spectrum, the quarrel might be hard to notice at…

Every Little Thing He Does is Tragic

Leftists suffer from a lack of patience. Even as they attempt to remake society and refashion the mass’s tastes, preferences, and predilections while safeguarding already stolen wealth for themselves–reality ends up setting in and reality bites. It kicks them in the face, for their fanciful dreams of kleptocratic utopia are naturally at odds with nature,…

The New World Order is on the Way

Ray Dalio performed a great service here. While no one can be expected to hit all of the points, and Dalio can be faulted for some glaring assumptions–such as presuming that prosperity comes with the essential coordination of government, lenders, and entrepreneurs–he does successfully summarize the historical record as it pertains to world order cycles.…

A Putin’s Progress

It was bound to happen. Once Russian forces invaded Ukraine, figures from both the right and the left fell into their binary, vacuous thought pits. They proceeded to direct Twitter fits at libertarians and anarchists like dear little ol’ me. My response is one to ponder:     So, when both your midwit conservative neighbor…

Purple Reign

Back in 1994, the hard rock/punk/alternative band Bad Religion released their album Stranger Than Fiction. One of the tracks was a pretty immediate hit: “21st Century Digital Boy”. Creepy video, but not as creepy as the progressive-secular religion of today. Oh, for 1994 again… After reading Matt Purple’s piece on perhaps the most annoyingly mindless…

The Iscariots

This is all so Biblical. The question is not whether the reign of evil, the Reich of the liars, cheats, murderers, thieves and scoundrels has arrived, but rather; how long is it going to last? Is this the pinnacle? Will there be enough Maccabees to fight back? Those questions can really only be answered by…

Watch It Fall: A Lament

“How long until there’s nothing left at all?” This is the season, this is the time of lamentation. I suspect that bluegrass, perhaps along with just the plain old blues, might be the only two musical genres fit to express the sentiments of the remnant of the healthy and the sane, we who are left…

Apart-Hood

“Apartheid” comes from the Afrikaans words for “separateness” or more literally, “apart-hood”. The fact that dimwitted mayors throughout the United States and parliaments in Europe, Australia, New Zealand have embraced apartheid regarding reception of the genetic serums speaks to some remarkable contradictions. The comrades appear oblivious to any of them. Without exception, for decades, these…

To Russia With Love: An Open Letter to Vladimir Putin

Dear Mr. Putin, It was with some considerable alarm today–although I must admit now that it seems foolish to me even as I write it–that I greeted my day with the distinct displeasure of turning on the American cable news networks. How could I expect anything but an admixture of nausea and frustration? Unfortunately, it…
