‘Yesterday’: A Film Review

By C. Merle Davidson

WARNING: SPOILERS TO FOLLOW.

Last summer the Film “Yesterday,” was released to middling success. It was intended to be a bit of a nostalgia piece centered on the Beatles’ Music only with a twist.

The film opens with Jack Malik trying to make it in as a song-writer in the pop music genre. At the very outset it is important to note that Jack Malik is a combination of perhaps the most common male English name of all time combined with a Punjab surname that means “King.” Indeed, Jack’s people hail from the sub-continent of India though Jack and his parents are all thoroughly culturally Anglicized, complete with British accents and partaking of British customs. King Jack’s family (parents) are the very embodiment of British middle class culture. The filmmakers’ contempt for Jack’s parents throughout the film makes that clear. Jack’s parents, as being emblematic of middle class Brits, are never shown in the film as anything but doofuses. It seems to me that the filmmakers are communicating two things in the way that Mr. and Mrs. Malik are portrayed in the film: first that they are just like us, even though they are Punjab, and secondly, because they are such perfect reflections of the middle class English they are to be cast in a negative light.

Where Libertarianism Leads: Presbyterian Pastor Endorses Legalized Bestiality

By Davis Carlton

Few among us had the foresight to see this coming. I certainly didn’t imagine that I would be writing a response to an ostensibly orthodox Presbyterian pastor arguing for the legality of bestiality. Nevertheless, this is where things stand. We truly live in strange times. The comments that I am responding to are from a Twitter thread on the account of Rev. Chris Caughey, who is a Presbyterian pastor and hosts a podcast called Glory Cloud about the theology of Meredith Kline. Evidently Caughey is not a fan of patriarchy. He begins by alleging that “patriarchy is advocated not by men – not even by mice (what an insult to rodents!) – but by cockroaches who are utterly terrified when light is shined on the darkness of their teaching.” read more

Generation X: A Hollywood Coverup

By Ehud Would

“Family Reimagined” is the perfect subtitle for this documentary on Generation X. Because it’s a complete snowjob. An obvious rewriting of history. Obvious, at least, to those who lived through it.

But you won’t see the subject set right in the pages of the sanctioned history books. Nor will you see it redressed in the pages of National Review, or Imprimis. Fact is, even in the domain of citizen journalism and opinion, Gen X is conspicuously alack for representatives to set the record straight; and as it pertains to the identity and experience of X, the other generations able simply haven’t much interest in doing so. 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

Anti-Social Justice, Anti-Globalist, Pro-Western Civilization Homeschool Curriculum Now Available


By Jack Saxon

The Wait Is Over

Getting ready to start a new homeschool year? Already started? Either way, you need to read this.

In 2013, Tribal Theocrat published a two-part podcast interview with Bobbi Leigh Swagger, a veteran of the homeschool industry. Bobbi said, among other things, that homeschooling was infected with pietism, Statism, and multiculturalism; adding that there really was no curriculum out there that openly addressed these issues, coming down on the side of historic Christian and Western Civilization. read more

What is Treason?

By Davis Carlton

Steve Hays of Triablogue has posted a brief discussion on the concept of “race-traitors.” I find many of Hays’ writings on theological topics to be of interest, although I disagree with his rejection of Kinism. I thought I would offer my own thoughts in response to what he says in his brief post. Hays begins by noting, “The ‘race-traitor’ epithet is used both by (some) whites and blacks. Is that ever a legitimate category?”

To answer Hays’ rhetorical question: yes, race treason is a legitimate category. That the Bible condemns treason should be uncontroversial. Judas Iscariot is also identified as the traitor (Lk. 6:16), the Apostle Paul condemns traitors (2 Tim. 3:4), and Stephen accuses those who were about to stone him of being “betrayers and murderers” (Acts 7:52). Race is the broadest subcategory of mankind encompassing many people from similar ethnic backgrounds. The Bible uses many different designations that radiate outward from the basic social unit of the family. Several families comprise a clan, several clans comprise a tribe, and several tribes comprise a nation. Nations are hereditary and genealogical (1 Chr. 1-8, 9:1), and are typically named for a prominent patriarch. 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

A Short, Sharp Response to TGC’s ‘Why Are Black Women Increasingly Identifying as Bisexual?

By FH Glastonbury

Read the original article here.

I learned on TGC today that one in four black women are gay, that black Christians view pornography at higher rates than white unbelievers, and that black Christians don’t let their religion interfere with their longstanding habits of fornication, homosexuality, adultery, etc:

“Yet even though Black Americans tend to be more conventionally religious than Whites on average (Shelton & Emerson, 2012), research has shown that Black Americans, and especially Black men, do not tend to connect their religious piety to their sexual norms and behaviors to the extent that Whites do. 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

What Color Were The Israelites? A Study in Anti-White Hypocrisy

By Davis Carlton

The modern world is absolutely obsessed with “diversity.” In our Orwellian anti-white world the word diversity doesn’t mean acknowledging the unique characteristics of the various racial and ethnic groups throughout the world. Diversity invariably means non-white immigration to white countries, white families adopting non-white children, and interracially marrying, while at the same time praising non-white communities for their solidarity and resistance to ubiquitous white privilege, racism, and oppression. It’s been well-established that diversity is a euphemism for white genocide. Modern Christians are no less obsessed with this kind of diversity than their secular Western counterparts. read more
