On Tuesday I wrote about how young people seem to be migrating from mainline protestant churches to Catholicism. I analyzed the trend in terms of an outlook to personal salvation and evangelicalism. Among hardcore Evangelicals there is a term,…
About The Ceasefire – The Hugh Hewitt Show
I find it impossible to make much sense out of things right now. The ceasefire is apparently based on the immediate opening of the Straits of Hormuz, but from what I can tell at the moment, they are not all that “open” at this juncture about 10…
Everything Old is New Again
If you are old enough, as I am, to remember the Apollo space program then watching Artemis II circle the moon yesterday came with an odd sense of déjà vu. Sure the lunar orbit was larger, hence the distance from Earth was farther, sure this…

Yesterday Exposed A Major Lie
It would be difficult to describe just how important America’s early manned space program was in my youth. I remember taking what then passed for a “portable” TV to my second grade class so we could watch John Glenn’s first orbital mission. I…
There Is Only One Explanation
On Monday I learned that Politico, which I do not read unless someone else tells me there is something I ought to look at, is deeply antisemitic. The current rise of antisemitism in our culture is deeply troubling. It is a portent of problems…
