This Pride Stuff, Like Every Left-Wing Movement, is Totalitarian in Nature!
I've never understood ethnic, race, gender or sex pride. Even as a kid. For my bar mitzvah, someone gave me a book titled "Great Jews in Sports" or something like it. Aside from the usual jokes -- it was not a long book; the print and the photos were very large -- what I remember best was that I had little interest in the book. I loved sports. ...Read more
"Do Not Hate Whites" is a Biblical Law That Would Change American Life!
One of the most remarkable laws in the Bible is in the Book of Deuteronomy: "Do not hate an Egyptian." It is remarkable because it was given to the generation of Israelites that had just been liberated from slavery in Egypt.
Imagine.
A people who had been enslaved for hundreds of years, and for a period of time had their newborn sons drowned, ...Read more
We Must Bring More People to the Christian God and Religion!
There are four primary reasons fewer and fewer people in America and the West take God, the Bible or religion seriously.
1. The belief that science disproves religion.
2. The belief that reason and feelings supplant God and the Bible as the only necessary vehicles to morality.
3. The "progressive" ideologies of at least 100 years that seek to...Read more
Thoughts on the Death of My Dog
Last week, Otto, my beloved English bulldog, died. He died as he lived -- peacefully. His presence in our home for 12 years was an unmitigated joy. He also, amazingly, became the best-known dog in America through sheer happenstance; he was on camera during almost all of my nearly 300 weekly Fireside Chats for PragerU and became the hero of a ...Read more
A Generation is Being Raised on Lies About Slavery in America!
A generation of Americans is being raised on half-truths and lies about the history of slavery in America. They are given the impression that America was uniquely bad and that American slavery was uniquely bad. They learn nothing about slavery elsewhere. Among the many lies they are told are that "black slaves bult America" and that America is ...Read more
Communism! The Left Has Arrested a Former President of the Opposition Party!
My field of study in graduate school was communism. As a fellow at the Russian Institute of Columbia's School of International Affairs, I was, if I remember correctly, one of seven students in the entire university to major in what was known at the time as "Communist Affairs."
I cite this in order to make this point: In my wildest dreams, I ...Read more
Reporting News as Truthfully as Possible is Conservative!
If you Google "what is conservatism?" this is the definition you will receive:
"Commitment to traditional values and ideas with opposition to change or innovation."
This is but one more illustration of the lack of objectivity wherever the Left is in control.
The idea that conservatism means, by definition, "opposition to change or ...Read more
Cracks in the Conservative Movement Cause a 2024 Victory to Recede by the Day!
Given the damage the Left and the Left's political party, the Democrats, are doing to America, you would think conservatives would understand that defeating the Left is by far their most important task.
The Left's damage includes, to name but a few examples, doing incalculable damage to America's children by supporting and advocating mutilating...Read more
Silicon Valley Bank Was More Interested in LGBTQ Activism Than Making Money
The primary concern of the people who ran the Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) -- the bank that just went bust -- was not banking. Nor was it making money for the bank's shareholders or safeguarding the funds of its depositors.
Their primary concern was social activism -- LGBTQIA+, DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion), ESG (Environmental, Social, and ...Read more
Controlling Others! It's What Leftism is All About!
The world's most trusted evaluator of medical studies, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, has just released as close to a conclusive report on the effectiveness of masks against respiratory viruses such as COVID-19 as we are likely to have for the foreseeable future. The report assessed data from 78 different studies, including 11 new ...Read more
