It seems there is more talk today regarding ethnic division than ever, principally between Blacks and other ethnicities. Considering that slavery was abolished in 1865, Affirmative Action was started by an executive order in 1961, the civil rights act was enacted in 1964 eliminating segregation, what remains and how long will it take? Why is… Continue reading Racism Eliminated

Casting the First Stone
"So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, 'He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.' " John 8:7. Several years ago a commercial ran for a cruise line where the Father said to his family that for their vacation he had… Continue reading Casting the First Stone
Most People
Most people are environmentalists, they don't pollute the land, water or air, nor do they think others should. These same people are kind to animals and would never think of starving or abusing their pets, or even a stray. The vast majority of people have compassion for the poor and those who have lost their… Continue reading Most People
Trump Speaking Out
Many people, even those who support President Trump, are put off by his responses to those who falsely accused him. This is a departure from some past Presidents, particularly George W. Bush, who thought it was beneath the office and even prevented others from offering a defense. What I still consider one of the most… Continue reading Trump Speaking Out
An Aberration Unexplained
Our communication methods, tools, means, and technology are evolving at an unprecedented rate. TV has been relegated to a dwindling source of news; Internet and other digital and video forums are growing as fast as the technology that enables it. Nevertheless, in this high-tech environment AM radio has produced an aberration that has impacted the entire… Continue reading An Aberration Unexplained
Division
At the height of the cold war, school children regularly practiced getting under their desks at the sound of a loud siren, designating a nuclear attack from the USSR, our bitter enemy. The threat was real and tensions high. As a small child my hope was that the bomb would hit right on us, so… Continue reading Division
From One Racist to Another
For 18 years the New York Yankees have been playing Kate Smith’s version of “God Bless America” during the seventh inning stretch. They have recently banned the song due to her singing some purported racially insensitive songs 80 years ago. The hockey team, Philadelphia Flyers, have done the same and even covered a statute of… Continue reading From One Racist to Another
Public Forum and Free Speech
Are the electronic platforms of Twitter, Facebook, Google and Apple, public forums? Free speech is protected in the public forum, not in private locations. The public square, parks, and sidewalks are places of public fora. Yet, in our society public speaking is largely conducted via audio, video, and electronic means through television, radio and ever-expanding… Continue reading Public Forum and Free Speech
Protected Class
I was reading a Wikipedia biography of Pat Robertson that contained a section on Controversies and Criticisms, listing all manner of so-called controversial topics and criticisms, (are these criticisms of Robertson or subjects of his critique). The tone of this section is highly negative of Robertson, as it promotes a biased premise seated in political… Continue reading Protected Class
Spirit Undiminished
I said to my daughter-in-law regarding her baby, "She really loves her Mommy." Of course and her Mommy loves her as much or more, but there is something deep in these bonds of love. I have said for years, when I see a new-born smile as they sleep that they are recalling their delight in… Continue reading Spirit Undiminished
Forceful Overthrow of America

Pontius Pilate and Robert Mueller
Both of these men are prosecutors and they have some striking similarity in their approach. First, they both bring charges against a well liked successful leader who championed truth and interests of the common man. Secondly, charges were brought to these prosecutors, not supported by fact, but from a deep-seated hatred of those who opposed… Continue reading Pontius Pilate and Robert Mueller
A Fascist Revolution
German and Italian Fascist revolts during the 1930's each had their human dictator who gave voice to their power grab. Today's Fascists in America use the media as their voice of revolt, though we have yet to see a one man leader, yet he may arise. A ground work was installed during the eight year… Continue reading A Fascist Revolution
The Establishment and Whigs
The Whig Party had been very successful but one huge issue resulted in its rapid demise. Moreover, it tried to play the middle on a major issue, but alienated its members. With its demise a new party, the Republican party, arose by reaching out to those who were ignored and betrayed by their former party.… Continue reading The Establishment and Whigs
Supreme Court Justice
The judicial branch of government is capped by the Supreme Court where the Justices exercise their influence on a case by case basis. Historically, the Justices keep a low profile sequestered behind their loyal clerks and private environs. They wield tremendous increasing power of the Federal Government and since the Civil War over every aspect… Continue reading Supreme Court Justice
Social Justice
This term has different meanings to different people, particularly among Christians. Generally, in the media and public forum it refers to justice in terms of the distribution of wealth, opportunities, and privileges within a society. In this context, it has little or nothing to do with the teachings of the Bible. The Bible is not… Continue reading Social Justice
Only God is Good
"And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 'Why do you call me good?' Jesus answered. 'No one is good--except God alone.' " So many times over my life I have heard about the exceptionalism of the American people and its government. This was usually equated… Continue reading Only God is Good
Truth of Life Here
There is a central theme in the "Walking Dead" TV series that is consistently true in society today - Everything and everybody is trying to survive. We take steps to maintain our life among the many things that threaten us. However, this is only a perception or notion that makes sense in a fantasy world… Continue reading Truth of Life Here
Bully
We typically think of a bully as someone who unjustly mistreats weaker people. Most of us have encountered a bully somewhere along life's pathway. I realized two groups of bullies in today's society that may be obscure. First, bullies in community sports. These are teams of bullies who are very good at their chosen sport,… Continue reading Bully
The Nazis Among Us
Many people since World War II have questioned how Hitler could have carried out the holocaust. How could the nation that produced Luther and had a long christian history have so willingly aided Hitler, including the professing church in most cases. The answer is the fallen nature of man and the inherent wickedness that resides… Continue reading The Nazis Among Us
Men Created Equal
These famous words from the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America were written by Thomas Jefferson. John Adams and others certainly had significant influence in its creation, but his choice of words stand upon a greater premise of the hand of Providence at work. I watched part of Ken Burns film, "Thomas… Continue reading Men Created Equal
Hypocrisy Redefined
I noticed an article with an astonishing title/accusation against the Vice President, charging he and his wife of moral hypocrisy. I looked for the source and noted that it was from a discredited fascist source. However, what was the basis for this accusation? The writer stated that Mrs. Pence taught art at a private christian… Continue reading Hypocrisy Redefined
Sodomite Revenge
The wicked shaming of Karen Pence for teaching art part-time at a Christian school that adheres to biblically rooted views of marriage arises directly from the Supreme Court's equally wicked decision to legalize same-sex marriage in Obergefell vs. Hodges. As pointed out in William McGurn's recent Wall Street Journal article, when Obergefell was decided it… Continue reading Sodomite Revenge
War, Politics, Football and Economics
I explained and pointed out the omission in the computation of gain very concisely to my Manager, "All the items valued and included in the asset and equity basis are not represented in the sales price." He understood and acknowledged my concern. So, we arranged a meeting with the valuation experts. I pointed out the… Continue reading War, Politics, Football and Economics
Is America Worth Saving
The Democrat media and it's devoted followers believe America is not worth saving. If they did, they would support the traditions, principles, laws, and people who made it what it is. No, they have nothing but contempt for most Americans. Hillary Clinton coined their motto, "they are a basket of deplorables, racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic,… Continue reading Is America Worth Saving
