Soon another 4th of July will be upon us. On July 4, 1776, 56 men voted to adopt the final wording of the Declaration of Independence. This was a milestone in history. Today there is a war on America as founded. But those who engage in that fight are attacking the very source of their […]

What would the founders say? As a general principle: Apply the Golden Rule to the situation at hand. In October of last year, in a “girls” high school volleyball game in North Carolina, a student was injured painfully. The ball was spiked by a member of the opposing team—only it wasn’t by a biological female […]

  Some past presidents have made interesting Christmas observations worth sharing. I acknowledge my thanks to author/speaker Bill Federer and his book, America’s God and Country, which has been quoted by the Supreme Court (Greece v. Galloway, 2014). When he was very young, George Washington wrote out the following Christmas poem in his own handwriting, apparently […]

When it comes to prophesies and predictions, have you ever noticed how often the “experts” get it wrong? Winston Churchill quipped, “I always avoid prophesying beforehand, because it is much better policy to prophesy after the event has already taken place.” Predictions are dangerous. Consider these “prophecies” made by various people: “There is not the […]

In eight years, America will celebrate a major milestone—the 400th anniversary of Boston. I passed through Boston’s airport in 2021 and noticed that they seem to be gearing up for this milestone with lots of signs and images celebrating major events in Boston’s history. Alas, they grossly underplayed the role of the Puritans in this […]

My wife stitched a needlework for our home that says, “Life is fragile. Handle with prayer.” But to many with a secular mindset, prayer is meaningless. In our politically correct age, the notion of “thoughts and prayers” is old-fashioned—maybe even offensive to some. Consider some alternatives, declares one website: “It’s a lovely sentiment that may […]

Last week, the death of the final leader of the Soviet Union marked the end of an era. “Mikhail Gorbachev Meets His Maker” is the way professor and author Dr. Paul Kengor entitled his article on this milestone. Gorbachev died on August 30, 2022 at the age of 91. He was the last head of […]

My wife just came back from a routine grocery store run. She said, “These people are destroying the country.” She wasn’t talking about the store—she was talking about our elite political class that are spending our country into great inflation. And now they are poised to spend even more. They have recently passed a bill […]

The God Factor is the key to America’s success. But alas that lesson is often forgotten (or was never learned in the first place). On July 4, 1776, our founding fathers voted to affirm a revolutionary document—the Declaration of Independence. Since that time to the present, there have been numerous other political revolutions. Most have […]

If you were to travel around the nation, what one thing would you find repeatedly? The answer may surprise you—especially in light of the violence rocking our nation, the disintegration of common values, the rampant crime, and the breakdown of morals. Fox News reports (4/18/22): “A New York man who has been cycling to all […]
