A Legacy Lost

29. Jan, 2013 1 Comment

We 21st century American Christians are, on the whole, woefully ill-equipped when it comes to understanding things like inalienable/unalienable rights. Perhaps it is more accurate to say that we have not been trained in these areas at all, or at least if we have, such training has not come from our churches. There is a […]

Alienable/Inalienable/Unalienable

I have decided to post a new blog to continue the ongoing conversation on the so-called “myth” of “inalienable” rights—and hopefully bring a few more folks into the discussion.

The Missing Element Part I

09. Nov, 2012 Comments Off on The Missing Element Part I

I submit to you that there was but one element missing in this year’s election process. And it is the sole reason our incumbent Commander-in-Chief was returned to the White House for another four years. The missing element? Virtue. Virtue has all but disappeared from our American landscape. Virtue is out of vogue. Virtue is […]

I found great inspiration in his words and in this brief blog post, I will do my best to recap his message for you. Mr. Cuccinelli spoke for about forty-five minutes, focusing […]

Happy belated Valentine’s Day! A dear friend posted a comment on my February 3rd blog post, The Patriot – Epilogue. She began by saying that the post was … “Probably your most thought provoking article yet!” I can tell you as a writer, a compliment like that goes a long way to help keep me […]

The Patriot.01 – A Patriot’s Baseline

04. Jan, 2012 1 Comment

The year I came into the world (1951), America was awash in patriotism. Our soldiers and sailors, marines and airmen had, just a few years earlier, returned home from delivering decisive victories in the Pacific and Atlantic theaters of WWII. We had not only trampled our enemies under our feet, we had extended the hand […]
