Doug Wilson’s nonsense, theological and otherwise, is on full display. His bluster doesn’t work without yes men telling him he’s right.
The emperor has no clothes, and it’s not a pretty sight. It is pretty dang funny, though.
This is who he is. This is all he is.”

We abandoned traditional media, with its editorial oversight & accountability... Because society became convinced they were all conspiring.
Now, with AI, they will not believe even what they see in real time. They can't think it through.
They will only believe what they already believe.
"An early morning walk is a blessing for the whole day."

I went to six flags with my teens. Found out that day, in the worst way possible. I was 41. 😥
CNN had him at 100%...?
This is delusional. 😦
Pope Leo XIV: Jesus told us, blessed are the peacemakers. But woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.
Crock pot for the win. Seriously.
I lived in CA for over sixty years. I assure you, the good people of CA will not vote that way.
I suspect the Pope sounds "woke" to many Christian conservatives because the US is steeped in prosperity theology, where the point of worship is to deliver health and wealth to believers. Thus, "feed the hungry" and "show mercy for the poor" sounds needlessly political and "woke."
KERNEN: We'd never be able to send anyone back if you needed a judicial warrant every single time
RAND PAUL: Well, I don't think that's true. Obeying the 4th Amendment of the Constitution shouldn't be too difficult. It's something we fought the revolution over.
From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
Octavia E. Butler, 1998:
❤️ and it's just the beginning..
I love this quote. It's what we have been missing in our daily lives: compassion, humanity, consideration for others...
Flannery O'Connor is known for her moments of "hard grace"... Where the character has some shocking moment that forces self realization, confronting their sinful selves and their need for redemption. Very much a Catholic author whose faith plays a huge part... But it's not a soft or nice grace!
Mine has to sniff each blade of grass to find just the right one... Even if it's -20 and he has to dig through the snow to find the grass first. 😦
Same! We went to our little local theater, where each of 3 screens seat about 40. The room was full, many on a 2nd or 3rd screening, all saying it was the best movie they had seen in such a long time.
We need fun entertainment. I don't care if it's called escapism. The dark stuff is too real.
The people of Iran aren’t free. Iran can now charge tolls. The nuclear material sits EXACTLY where it did, in the same amount, since June. The regime is still in place with a younger ayatollah. Iran still was launching missiles, now with more money to rebuild.
Period
Good lord. If we cede control of the strait to Iran…. And agree to REPARATIONS…. This will be the biggest humiliation in American history
Such contentment!
I'm a Gen Jones gal, but up here in the PNW we have never needed either an umbrella or plastic in our clothing. Of course, we also think flannel has potential for every event.
This is absolutely insane and 25th amendment grounds in and of itself
Then get in there and serve articles of impeachment; the house must be called to session today. The speaker is guilty of treason if he does call the house in. We elect you to do something...DO something!
The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.
This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.
Where? Steak dinners around here have skyrocketed in price, while the portion size has plummeted. And I live where they literally grow the beef. 🤷♀️
That was a good day!
What I'm saying is humiliating Trump supporters may feel cathartic but does nothing.
The meaning of victory has to be reframed entirely to the extent that's possible
Welcome to Easter 2026, where the Muslim mayor they claimed would institute sharia law just posted a very nice Easter message for his Christian constituents, while the Republican President they claimed was Christianity's only hope just posted "Praise be to Allah."
...Wait.
*checks notes*
From “Christ the Lord is Risen Today” Soar we now where Christ has led, Alleluia! Following our exalted Head, Alleluia! Made like Him, like Him we rise, Alleluia! Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, Alleluia!
Christ has died ahead of us, and now Death holds no more terror.
Christ is risen ahead of us, and just as we follow him into death, we follow him into new life.
We die with him. We rise with him.
