Covid-19 and the Rise of the Karens

By Colby Malsbury

Simone de Beauvoir, the lesbian Stalinist who bedded Jean-Paul Sartre whenever there was nothing sufficiently sapphic around for her liking, once said ‘one is not born, but rather becomes a woman.’ Even in such a pithy statement, we can perceive the special kind of tyranny that the female is especially capable of, and culpable for – not as a mere agent of ‘destiny’, whatever that might mean, but as an active participant in and, if not a creator, then a domineering influencer of said destiny, all done for everyone else’s good and not as a vulgar patriarchal power grubber, of course. If the squeaky wheel gets the grease, then the squeaking caterwauling of feminism has garnered its denizens an entire chain of Minit Lube franchises over the past century. 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

God’s Meticulous Providence: the Mysterious Case of Rachel Held Evans

By Colby Malsbury

Who is Rachel Held Evans?

Woke ‘Christian’ females of a strongly antinomian bent: please don’t jump down my throat at the question. I wasn’t being facetious. I honestly had never heard of her before reading the news of her death, aged 37, this week. It might shock some of you fair maidens to know that I can’t name a single song from Ariana Grande, either. Some of us don’t live our lives saturated in the modern.

Well, whoever she was, I can’t say the tribute thread set up in her honor on Facebook appears too promising. All kinds of female emotional vomit about how profound and meaningful HER words were, how courageous SHE was, how SHE brought so much meaning into THEIR lives and how SHE made THEM better people, blah blah blah. If God is mentioned at all, it’s with the veiled threat that He had better receive her joyously, fantastic person that she was. I dunno – remind me again why women ought not to preach? read more

Islamic Violence: God’s Judgment on the West

The violence recently seen in Sweden and London is without a doubt some of the most brutal Islamic violence ever seen since the Turks besieged Vienna.

With the rioting quelled for the moment, the Main Stream Media (MSM) is scrambling to deflect and justify two weeks of Islamic rioting in Sweden and the brutal beheading of a British soldier in London by a black immigrant along their traditional lines that it was because of “discrimination” and “economic disenfranchisement.”

Could this be the game changing moment the Right has been looking for? Who knows? Perhaps it is wishful optimism that would cause such thinking? It it is still too early to tell. read more

Female Modesty: To Cover or Reveal?

It's difficult to make modesty standards, but here's a helpful rule of thumb with tight clothing. When you can make a true-scale plaster caster mold of your body parts with your clothes on, your clothes are too tight.

The Manhattan Delcaration

Many have written about this new declaration on ecumenical social action. I thought I would give some useful rhetorical and provocative thoughts. I’ll be using the short version, but occasionally drawing on points from the larger.

Family First

Christians, when they have lived up to the highest ideals of their faith, have defended the weak and vulnerable and worked tirelessly to protect and strengthen vital institutions of civil society, beginning with the family.

Excellent, and true. For example, for the better part of  two millennia Christian women worked in the home rearing children and didn’t dare split the solidarity of the family by attempting to vote along side their husband, whether in church or state elections. read more
