Lamenting the Other: David Bahnsen’s Disgusting Elegy to Kobe Bryant

By Colby Malsbury

Did you ever know that you’re my hero
And everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings

So went the refrain to Bette Midler’s maudlin anthem, which nonetheless resonated with Baby Boomers to such an extent that it has become a popular hymn at their funerals thirty-some years after the song’s release. Boomer influence has been such as to allow no other outpouring of emotion than the turning on of waterworks and the fraudulent enthusiasm of excessive flattery whenever a death occurs, as I made mention of in a previous article. This is especially true when one mourns the death of a celebrity. And when the celebrity happens to be an uber A-lister like recently deceased basketball Baal Kobe Bryant, well, you might as well shut everything down and declare multiple months to follow to be official periods of mourning. The unceasing bewailing of images that once flickered on your tee vee screen has been decreed to be therapeutic, doncha know. read more

Pastor Chuck Swindoll’s Gay Compromise

On Tuesday, I had the displeasure of attending the Christmas Eve service at Pastor Chuck Swindoll’s gigantic Stonebriar Community Church in Frisco, Texas, an extremely affluent northern suburb of Dallas.  It’s within easy driving distance, and they have an incredible pipe organ, choir, and instrumentalists, so I thought it would be an evening of beautiful music for my family.  Unfortunately, the string quartet felt a little threadbare in such a massive space, and the choir was on vacation, for which the passionless voices of over 3000 mumbling yuppies was no substitute. read more

The Frivolous Factionalism of ‘Shut Up, Millennial!’ ‘OK, Boomer!’

By Colby Malsbury

(Author’s note: the following article does not represent individual Boomers or Millennials who are committed Christians – both of whom I count as valuable kith and kin.)

Hey kids!

Did you know that baby boomers are a generation of grubby parasites who had the world handed to them on a silver platter to such an extent that they finagled economic booms and busts to their credit all their working lives, allowing them to take a very early and very cushy retirement, allowing them ample opportunity to globe-hop the world picking up exotic mail order brides and bemoaning the fact that younger folks weren’t picking up extra shifts down at the Apple factory or wherever they’re working these days in order to keep the Social Security gravy train on the rails in perpetuity? read more

#DatKanye, Or: How Christian Discernment Took a Holiday When a Renowned Rapper Claimed Regeneration

By Colby Malsbury

GREAT MOMENTS IN THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH:

70 AD – the destruction of the Temple and the ushering in of the final judgment upon Jewry.

451 – the Council of Chalcedon codifies Christian orthodoxy for one and all times.

1054 – the permanent schism between the Catholic West and the Orthodox East.

1517 – Martin Luther nails his 95 Theses to the Wittenberg church door.

2019 – Kanye West says that Christianity is ‘lit’, or something.

What, too soon? Well, I’m sure Ye will settle for being included as a footnote in this historiography. He is a humble sort, after all. read more

Occult Symbolism of the Feminist Pussyhat

Symbolism is Not Entirely Subjective

I’m no expert on the occult, so this post is simply intended to provoke thought.  Additionally, frank talk regarding the occult use of phallic and yonic symbolism is unavoidable for any worthwhile discussion of this subject matter.  I have sought to address this in the most modest and dignified manner possible, and have pixilated portions of one particularly salacious image.

It is commonly noted that modern urban Christians find the agricultural illustrations of Scripture to be foreign and obscure.  What is less commonly appreciated is that most Christians today live, eat, and breathe in an Enlightenment atmosphere, having received the materialist worldview they were taught in government schools as an unexamined first principle.  Thus, things like the necessity of blood atonement, the dedication of first fruits, the supernatural role in fecundity, etc., matters once understood on an implicit level, now seem strange and mystifying.  Such also is the case with rightly comprehending symbolism. read more

Blackface For Me, But Not For Thee

By Colby Malsbury

Oh, joy. That Crazy Cucked Communist Commissar of all the Canadas – better known to some as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau – is up to his antics again. It’s election season in the senior dominion, and the first shot across the bow has proven to be the leakage of a series of musty photos and videos depicting Mr. Dress-up with melted charcoal slathered all over his face. The pics of him in an extraordinarily twee Aladdin getup that wouldn’t be at all out of place at one of the Rothschilds’ infamous Hellfire club masked balls were bad enough, but an even more incendiary vid surfaced of him in an even darker shade of ochre dressed as some kind of Rastafarian hobo and shuckin’ and jivin’ like a kid getting down to the Lancelot Link theme song back in the day. Not the most auspicious start for a pol who has staked his entire reputation as being someone who might be incompetent and high as a kite on something illicit, but who nonetheless really really cares. read more

The Gnosis of Jeffrey Epstein

By Colby Malsbury

Ding dong, Dracula’s dead.

Maybe.

On that note, I guess we should get this point of contention out of the way first: personally, I don’t think Jeffrey Epstein ever was in jail to begin with. If he had been, he would have been the only billionaire in the history of the world ever to find himself consigned to the general population of a prison before his trial could even get underway. Are we to believe he opted for a court-appointed attorney or something? Having said that, I am not dogmatic on this point, and if someone prefers to believe he was murdered by outside forces inside his cell, I will gladly continue to break bread with them. If you parrot the official line that he suicided himself, though, depart from my sight and never return. That level of naivete is painful. read more

Whatever Happened to Grandparents?

By Ehud Would

Poppa, God rest him, was a real grandfather. He passed on stories, fables, limericks, work ethic, how to throw a respectable punch, a fear of God, and respect for how the West was won. And he bestowed me my first pocket knife with all the solemnity of knighthood.

Mema, bless her memory, was a real grandmother. She did all that grandmotherly sort of stuff like baking cookies, knitting, needlepoint, and the like. Ever doting on her grandchildren, she yet reinforced Christian virtues with utmost severity. read more

Christianity Didn’t ‘Lose’ Josh Harris. He Was Never In Our Camp To Begin With.

By Colby Malsbury

Ever notice how in Reformed ranks the apostasy of a theological rock star is treated as the death of an A-list celebrity in the normie world? Particularly since the grief expressed over such is usually of the most facile nature? I, for one, loathe pretension. Hence, when the news broke over the wire that Christian courtship guru Josh Harris had renounced his ‘faith’, I didn’t join the boo-hoo chorus emanating forth from Calvinist Facebook. It’s safe to say I was more moved when I heard about the passing of the guy who played Schneider from One Day At a Time many moons ago. read more

Aliens & Alienists: Why Christians Don’t Believe in Aliens — At Least Not From Outer Space

By Ehud Would

Full disclosure: I regard the present needfulness of redress on the subject of E.T.s  testament to nothing if not the bovine stupidity of the age.

But the impetus for this piece comes by way of the knucklehead plan to storm Area 51 in September. Which has already been endorsed by 1.5 million people.

I mean, really, of all things to inspire minuteman action against Leviathan — not the functional nullification of the Bill of Rights, taxation sans representation, nor the wholesale war on our faith and folk conducted by the feds, but the desperate wish that Star Trek was based on a true story? This is criminal insanity. Peak stupid. read more
