‘Vain in Their Imaginations’
God-Haters and the Tucson Massacre

Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools . . . — Romans 1:21-22 (KJV) Vox Day quoted from that famous passage in describing the auto-beclownment of University of […]

‘Progressive Secularization of Society’ Leaves Humanity ‘Thirsty for God’

The quote is from a guy who wears funny hats. While I prefer a fedora myself, it’s hard to argue with Pat Archbold: You know who I blame for the Tucson shooting? I blame Jared. He chose sin. He chose evil. He chose to buy the gun and to shoot people. . . . I blame […]

Mosques, Sharia and Sedition

Frank Gaffney on Fox Business News: “A mosque that is used to promote a seditious program — which is what sharia is, as practiced by Faisal Rauf, as practiced by Osama bin Laden, as practiced by the Saudis and the Iranians and so many others — that is not a protected religious practice. That is […]

Pakistani Official Who Opposed Sharia Law Killed by His Own Bodyguard

Not an encouraging development: The governor of Pakistan’s most populous province was gunned down Tuesday at an upscale marketplace in Islamabad by a member of an elite police security contingent, officials said. The brazen killing threw an already teetering U.S.-backed government into even greater turmoil. Salman Taseer, the governor of Punjab province and an avowed […]

Sodomy Is Not Pro-Life

Just pointing that out for the benefit of Andrew Sullivan who claims to be Catholic — e.g., his post about Epiphany — and seizes upon Ross Douthat’s pro-life column today to make a plea for “expanding adoption opportunities.” Nudge. Nudge. While it’s tragic, I suppose, that Sully isn’t a zillionaire rock star who can afford […]

‘If We Go Back to Darfur, These Arabs
Will Shoot Us, They Will Kill Us’

From an Associated Press story about the Jan. 9 referendum for South Sudanese independence: While some Arab northerners have been selling their southern homes and businesses to move north, Darfuris say they have no plans to leave. “If we go back to Darfur, these Arabs will shoot us, they will kill us,” Adam said. Now […]

OMFG: Katy Couric Says, ‘Maybe We Need a Muslim Version of ‘The Cosby Show’

Yes, she really said that. When I heard the audio Steve Foley posted at the Minority Report, I could scarcely believe it. How could anyone — even Katie Couric — be so incredibly stupid as to say this aloud? “Maybe we need a Muslim version of ‘The Cosby Show.’ . . . I know it […]

She’s More Catholic Than the Pope

Lisa Graas wants to update the “about” page on her blog, and is looking for commendations from other bloggers, so there’s mine. Lisa always kids me about the fact that among the top referrers to her blog, it’s a bunch of hardcore Catholics and me. Being a pro-life Protestant (and father of six) probably explains that. […]
