SAINT PATRICK’S CONTRIBUTIONS TO WESTERN (CHRISTIAN) CIVILIZATION
Across America, great frustration and anger are rising, as productive Americans feel that they are buried in hundreds of thousands of laws and tax codes that dominate their everyday lives, families, property and businesses.

Dr. Dobson’s February Newsletter: America at the Crossroads of History
Dear Friends, I write to you today with contrasting and conflicting emotions. We have just seen the inauguration of the nation’s first black President, and many of us, even those who didn’t vote for him, are celebrating that historic moment. Given the scourge of slavery and the suffering of African Americans through most of the […]

He will of course deny that because it’s an intellectual embarrassment, but if I say that I don’t believe that a builder built my house, then I am left with the insanity of believing that nothing built it. It just happened. Cornell […]

George Washington and His love of American Liberty
I claim [George Washington] for America . . . To him who denies or doubts whether [America’s] fervid liberty can be combined with law, with order, with the security of property, with the pursuits and advancement of happiness; to him who denies that our forms of government are capable of producing exaltation of soul, and […]
The Myth of Abe Lincoln – Celebrate George Washington
By Gerald Christian (“Jerry”) Nordskog Abraham Lincoln is often cited as “one of our greatest presidents” and that he still speaks today. Hardly.

Know Your History: Or Die

It’s the Economy, Stupid!

Is it Time for Doomsday or for Building a City on a Hill?
by Gary DeMar “Apocalyptic thinking is in the air,” so said University of Connecticut psychologist Kenneth Ring in 1990.1 But long before 1990 speculation about the apocalypse was common, but it wasn’t until 1970 that the topic entered best-seller status and became part of everyday conversation.
