A couple of days ago I had a bit of a rant about total depravity. This links into the idea that some sins are quietly destructive, and some lead to open confrontation and punishment. Because our sense of justice should be offended when people are evil. or get away with evil: This world is fallen: … Continue reading Grace alone

The academic pimp
I used to think Schwyzer was a feminist male, that is a sex traitor, a coward, and a moron. He certainly argues like a second rate second wave feminist.. Sunshine Mary has called him out on his advice to young woman, Schwyzer’s suggestions make me laugh because they are essentially saying the opposite of what … Continue reading The academic pimp
Women for righteousness?
This world is evil, and it is not getting better. This annoys those who are sensitive to these things, and Hearthie, a woman who writes at Traditional Christianity has a proposal (comments are closed there) We use ugly speech, we wear ugly clothes. We think ugly thoughts, we watch ugly television. We are rude, we … Continue reading Women for righteousness?
It’s church bashing time round 51.
I find the ACLU useful. They are reliably wrong. It is a useful compass: if they advocate for something, the correct response is generally the one they are not taking. And in the current round of church bashing they are claiming that "pregnancy rights" give a woman a pass on any other moral duty. Black … Continue reading It’s church bashing time round 51.
God pulls us out of Babylon.
Well, son two came back to Dunedin last night. School is starting: his older brother had his first assembly yesterday and next week the teaching year starts at work. The last thing that the son did in his holiday was volunteer with his mother at Parachute, and he was full of news: he enjoyed Hillsong … Continue reading God pulls us out of Babylon.

I'm using all in one webmaster to manage tracking codes. This is mainly because Aesthetica has multiple sidebars and this does not play nicely with sitemeter. I am still looking for an ideal theme -- there could be changes over the next day or so. As far as appearance is concerned, I have removed the … Continue reading Some administration issues.
We are not here to please the elite.
Sunshine Mary has done a service to all thoughtful Christians by exposing the reaction of the US evangelicals to the USA allowing women to serve in the front lines. Where most of us do not belong -- most men cannot meet the requirements for the elite groups that spend most of their time in the … Continue reading We are not here to please the elite.
Why we are in the financial mess we are in
Thanks to the other McCain. This is brilliant, and I am trying to get it viral
Linkage… (avoid folly, folks)
Vanessa argues that school hours should be short. She's right. We always have had an aristocracy, and they always get away with crimes that others are convicted for. Anonymous is annoyed by this, and is going to take down the US prosecution services if they don't stop being unjust. In the meantime, the democrat fascist … Continue reading Linkage… (avoid folly, folks)
The Beltway will shatter.
We are living in a time of imperial over reach. By the denizens of the capitals of the old West, in particular those who inhabit Brussels and Washington. For not only do they interfere with the customs and ancient rights of free people -- destroying the spirit of the English with an increasingly regulated "Health … Continue reading The Beltway will shatter.
