A Special Canonization

June 15, 2023 Featured Today Comments Off on A Special Canonization

By TOM TAKASH Throughout the history of the Catholic Church, She has identified certain individuals as righteous people known for their “heroic sanctity” and, as such, she has through the canonization process declared them saints in Heaven.The Church recognized St. Stephen as the first known Christian saint. He was martyred in approximately AD 34. Since then, many thousands of all ages have since been officially declared saints by the Church; a great number through martyrdom and many others due to their exceptional lives, devoted to serving God and mankind.

By DEXTER DUGGAN PHOENIX — A video showing Joe Biden walking to the stage at the Air Force Academy before he tumbled there on June 1 is a reminder of the powerful cocoon surrounding Biden and probably reinforcing his notions of his invincibility, despite his weaknesses visible to all.Biden walked along a line of cadets at attention saluting him as the presidential hymn Hail to the Chief played for the graduation crowd in Colorado. It was another day’s repetition of the public glory for himself that he had dreamed of attaining for decades, by whatever means possible.And think of the intricate network of planners and facilitators buzzing daily to enable Biden to go wherever and do whatever he wants —…Continue Reading

And the Yanks were mine.Over the years, despite the success or failures of the teams…Continue Reading

The Culture War Has Moved To A New Phase

June 10, 2023 Featured Today Comments Off on The Culture War Has Moved To A New Phase

By NEIL PATEL Left-wing nutballs have had the upper hand in America’s culture wars for a long time. They are hyperaggressive and focused on pushing America in a radical direction. They push their agenda on school boards, in local and national political venues, and on many corporations.To date, resistance has been isolated to a small number of dedicated conservative activists. Most Americans just want to get along whenever possible, not fight about sensitive social issues if they can help it and, most of all, not be mean to people. That’s a laudable attitude in general, but when up against radical, ideologically driven opponents, oftentimes you have to push back. If you don’t, they won’t stop.As we have now seen, just…Continue Reading

The Hate Of The Intellectual Class

June 7, 2023 Featured Today Comments Off on The Hate Of The Intellectual Class

By PAUL KRAUSE Since the Bolshevik Revolution swept through Russia in 1917, the intellectual class in the Western world has slowly drifted into a despotic conformity united under the banner of hatred for the West. That hatred is principally targeted at “capitalism,” a catch-all term for a non-government planned economy, the middle class (or the “bourgeoisie”) created from the capitalist economy, and a lingering loathing of Christianity.From the 1920s to the 1960s, a battle raged inside the Western world’s pre-eminent universities and media publications between so-called conservatives, who can loosely be described as having a positive view of capitalism, the middle class, and Christianity regardless of personal political or even religious sentiment, against those who hated these pillars of Western…Continue Reading

To request, to ask, to plead, to warn, to joke, to praise, to condemn, among the many daily interactions of life.Other instruments to convey meaning include writing, facial expressions, hand signals, musical and other sounds.Then there are moods and depths — seriousness, levity, the ephemeral, the important.Anyone with something to sell, instruct, or persuade needs to master these tools.Capturing the means of communication is among the priorities of the dictator. Or at least making the communicators into the allies of the dictator, like dominant media shielding Joe Biden and sinking…Continue Reading
