Most of these posts have been about the attempt to shut down dissent on same-sex marriage etc. Here's something on another question which is probably just as important: at The Federalist, "How Anti-White Rhetoric Is Fueling White Nationalism". As I've been saying for a long time, "sow the wind, reap the whirlwind"–and as anyone with the

And the book says: "We may be through with the past, but the past is not through with us." ** When first I saw Paul Thomas Anderson's Magnolia I left the theatre in a state of befuddlement that hardened over the course of a few reflective weeks into antagonism. Here, I decided, was a movie

I'm really glad to hear this from a liberal. I've been saying for years (as you know if you read this blog regularly), that liberals in general are now engaged in the grossest sort of bigotry toward conservatives, and I often think I ought to Just Get Over It, since it doesn't seem likely to change.

Unlike most of the songs in this series, this one is from an album I've purchased. If I remember correctly, this was a freebie, and I bought the album on the strength of it. And while this did turn out to be my favorite song on the album, most of the rest is very good, too.

Which would you use as the plural of "dogma" when writing in a fairly formal context? The first strikes my ear as slightly off, the second as a little pedantic and even maybe pompous to some ears.

This 1999 Belgian movie about St. Damien of Molokai has some big names in the cast: Peter O'Toole, Leo McKern, Derek Jacobi, Kate Ceberano, Kris Kristofferson, Sam Neill and of course, Faramir (aka David Wenham). I haven't seen the movie in a while, so I just looked at the trailer. That alone has the

I'm trying to watch all the Bergman films that I haven't previously seen and that are available on Netflix. Since I've seen most of the well-known ones, this includes some early and obscure ones. Here's the description of Thirst from the Netflix envelope: Unhappily married couple Rut and Bertil take a train trip across war-torn Germany–a

The bizarre frenzy to grant access to women's bathrooms to men who say they are really women continues. These two graphics, posted by liberals on Facebook, demonstrate the two-pronged attack. First there is the insistence that the whole matter is really not very significant, and is only made to seem so by hysterical conservative "transphobic" blah blah
