A Stinging Faith

$

I was once forward-deployed (to a location I’ll not disclose).  I was sound asleep at two in the morning, when a scorpion crawled into my bed. He stung me three times in the small of my back before I got him. It took weeks before I was able to sleep with covers again.  I would […]

Did Shane Take a Course in Normative Ethics?

$

0
I watched “Shane” last night for the first time.  Growing up, the cartoons and fast-paced stories ruined the classics for me.  Only now, as an adult (I can’t call myself that without shaking my head) can I appreciate them. I’ve always wanted to be Shane.  The man exemplifies Christian ethics and fulfills a Godly male […]

What Makes a Good Apologist?

There are those of us who feel strongly enough about a given position that we spend large amounts of time defending it against intellectual objections.  This is particularly the case in the Christian tradition, where objections to the Faith arise on a daily (almost hourly) basis.  But one need not be a Christian to be […]

An Argument Against Certain Forms of Christian Identity

$
0
0
I know many Christian Identity advocates in real life and have had wonderful fellowship with them.  Nevertheless, certain forms of Christian Identity teaching are not only false, but harmful to us as racially self-conscious Christians.  Furthermore, the sheer arrogance and vitriolic rhetoric from many in the CI movement, begs for a response. What is Christian […]

Friends, I hate to report it, but Bill Rolen passed away this morning. For anyone reading this who doesn’t know, he was a co-host on James Edwards’ Political Cesspool radio show, and an excellent advocate for our people and our Faith. http://www.thepoliticalcesspool.org/jamesedwards/political-cesspool-co-host-bill-rolen-has-passed-away/ Sadly, I haven’t been aware of Mr. Rolen for very long.  I’ve only […]

Yes Virginia, There is a White Man

DEAR EDITOR: I am a 28 year old woman. Some of my friends at the office say there is no white man.  Papa says, ‘If you see it on the internet, it’s so.’ Please tell me the truth.  Is there a white man? Search the world over, Virginia, from the golden California coast to the […]

You’re not your Dang Khakis, or: A Short Review of “Fight Club”

$
0

I finally saw “Fight Club” all the way through. It’s a story in the “escapist” genre, wrapped in pseudo-profound anarchist philosophy. But don’t get me wrong, I love the escapist genre: In a reflection of Joseph Campbell’s philosophy of myth, the main character in any escape story begins in a mundane setting. He is trapped […]

Prolegomena to a Christian Theory of Truth

$

0
In my quest to present a Van Tillian theory of truth (which is needed terribly in the Reformed community), I’m reading Kirkham’s infamous book where he outlines and critiques the major theories of truth. He begins by noting a very important distinction (that most philosophers of truth fail to realize), that the phrase “if and […]

Why Seb Ronin Needs Balls. (Or, why WN’s need poets, part II).

~ All are born Yankees of the race of men And this, too, now the country of the damned ~ Tate White nationalists walk a scary line when they reject their poets. Yes, yes, I know.  I can hear the WN’s objecting now.  “We have Ezra Pound!”  I reply, “sure, but how many rank and […]

The Damnable Arrogance of the Alternative Right

$
0
0
Once scientism shook the foundations of Christianity, destroying the Faith of many, the western world careened off into a tale spin of ideological anarchy.  A few tried vainly grasping at their Christianity in one of three ways: 1. Some retreated to pietism, fideism, or outright mysticism.  The world, with all its scientific, logical posturing, could […]

The Last Knight in a Post-Christian World

God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged. Sometimes I feel like the last Knight in this post-Christian age. It’s true, I don’t actually fight anyone.  I don’t have armor.  I haven’t […]

A Refutation of the “Trickster God” Argument

$
0

An argument I often hear from atheists runs the following: “Oh, you believe the Bible is God’s word, eh?  Well, what if God is a trickster and revealed to you a bunch of lies?  You wouldn’t be able to know anything at all about Him then, moron!  So tell me Christian, how do you know […]

To My Lesbian Admirers…

Apparently, my blog has caught the attention of a gaggle of lesbians on that rag-tag blogging site “Tumblr”; they’ve busied themselves with hand-waving, swearing, and offering general outcries of audacity about how backward, disgusting, and disagreeable I am. Their focus (from what I can tell), seems to be on my advocacy for traditional male / […]

A Shock of Faith

Something is knocking, Outside my window, it’s calling, It’s scratching and pawing, Though it barks without falling…(I’m on the second floor.) I pretend not to listen, Claim I can’t hear, The horror is knocking! I tremble in fear…(My window is … Continue reading
