I have called this clear speech not free speech because one of the ways to subvert censorship, and to induce censorship, is to speak in jargon or code. Ivan Illich used to say that any professional group is a conspiracy against the laity, and that jargon is one of the tools that is used. Which … Continue reading On clear speech.

Doing good in a time of evil.
I had a post taken down by Reddit yesterday because it was not about the lectionary. It seems that I wax too political. Perhaps it is my tendency to see patterns, but I start by reading the Presbyterian Daily Readings and then look around for things that apply. And today's text is how to live … Continue reading Doing good in a time of evil.
Against Personkind.
Yesterday, Trudeau corrected a woman (from a Korean feminist cult) who talked about how she could not get paid to volunteer in her cult for the good of mankind. Trudeau, the muppet, said, "we prefer personkind, it is more inclusive". Because he thinks by changing the language he can change the behaviour. Trudeau is either … Continue reading Against Personkind.
The Washington Cathedral and Coven.
The Washington coven that masquerades as an bunch of liberal Anglicans went full heretic a generation ago. They have now gone full moron. Let us start with the resolution no one is talking about, and the one that is more deadly. Most women don't want to see a penis in their washroom. But this is … Continue reading The Washington Cathedral and Coven.

The abortion industrial complex believes it must continue because muh supreme court and muh constitution … Continue reading Burn it down.
Pattern Recognition.
I am trying to keep out of US politics, but US politics keeps coming back to kick me. Yesterday, I went across to the local general store to get some coffee[1]. Heard the whine of the boomer american libtard discussing Trump. (The boomer libtard does not understand I am here to be quiet: that kiwis … Continue reading Pattern Recognition.
The virtues of the narrative will kill you.
One of the reasons to read widely is that you will find wisdom even among the degenerate, for we are all made in the image of God. In fact, the self hating degenerate (and Anti Puritan confesses his atheism and bisexuality) are closer to God than the churchians who promote social justice because their self-hatred … Continue reading The virtues of the narrative will kill you.
Three Quotes, Sunday Vespers.
In part I am doing this for Mundabor, and Scott. What we have is three quotes, out of chronological order. The correct order would be the Didache, then St Syrus, then John Calvin. (I have omitted the previous part of Calvin, when he challenges those who argue apostolic succession to Rome as the foundation of … Continue reading Three Quotes, Sunday Vespers.
Sunday Sonnet.
The Belloc cycle is drawing to a close. If anyone wants to comment about other cycles, do so. XXXITI Of meadows drowsy with Trinacrian bees, Of shapes that moved a rising mist among — Persephone between the Cypress trees — Of lengthier shades along the woodland flung, Of calm upon the hardly whispering seas, Of … Continue reading Sunday Sonnet.
Commanded not to be silent.
In which a Calvinist agrees with a Tridentine Catholic. Because my Catholic brother speaks the truth. The truth accepts all who live it as their friends. It is not confined to the divisions in churches. But then, neither is heresy, and FrancisChurch is an ancient error: that if I give all my goods to the … Continue reading Commanded not to be silent.
