Reflections on faith, science, reason, and belief By Wayne Allensworth Be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you—I Peter 3:15 Let all mortal flesh keep silence,And with fear and trembling stand;Ponder nothing earthly-minded,For with blessing in his hand,Christ our God to earth descendeth,Our full homage to demand. It was Advent season in a...
By Tom Piatak As everyone knows, the Roman Catholic Church has gone through a period of greatly diminished growth, and worse, in the last few decades in the lands it once dominated, defined, and even brought into being, in Western Europe, North America, and even Latin America. And no quick end to this crisis is in sight. To take just one statistic: In the mid-1960s, roughly one third of all...
By Wayne Allensworth In an earlier article, I wrote that resistance to Biden’s “vaccine mandate” was growing, not just out of fear, but as a matter of principle: “Millions of ordinary Americans wish to make their own decisions about whether they will be vaccinated, weighing the claimed benefits vs. potential hazards, and considering moral concerns about...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) CNN was hit with yet another major scandal on Friday when authorities arrested a top producer in connection with a child-rape scheme that led to “unlawful sexual activity,” as federal prosecutors in Vermont put it. Senior producer John Griffin paid a mother $3,000 to rape her daughter, the indictment alleges. Griffin brags that he worked “shoulder-to...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) Three reports on border apprehensions through the past week suggest that no end is in sight to the deluge of Central American and Third World immigrants streaming across the border from Mexico. The number of illegal aliens apprehended every day is nearly incomprehensible, but consistent with the Biden Regime’s policy to flood the country with...
By Wayne Allensworth If I were asked to point to one life-lesson I learned from my parents that meant the most to me, it would be this: Your life is not your own. It’s not something they explicitly told me when I was a boy. It was something I absorbed by watching them. My father did whatever he could for his family without ever making an issue of it. I noted that he was a loyal friend, and never...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) President Joe Biden is keeping his campaign promise not only to illegal aliens but also the Democrat Party strategists who see open borders and no deportations as the means to elect a new people. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has deported 80 percent fewer illegals since last year, and 90 percent fewer since 2019. And the agency, controlled by Cuban...
By Darrell Dow Little is more needed than a revisionist view of the great civil war that took place within Western Civilization between 1914 and 1945. December 7 is always a good place to begin because it was the “sneak attack” on Pearl Harbor that dragged the United States into World War II. If you have not read Robert Stinnet’s Day of Deceit about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, it is well...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) The more than 150,000 illegal aliens apprehended at the U.S. border with Mexico probably liked news this week from Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, the Cuban-born visa fraudster. Immigration authorities under Mayorkas’ sinistral command, he announced, will not deport the “majority” of illegals here now. Instead, authorities will go...
By Tom Piatak Rod Dreher is singing the praises of Eric Zemmour’s announcement of his candidacy to be president of France. Understandably so. It is a powerful, moving speech. It is so powerful, in fact, that YouTube has “age restricted” it. We can’t have the kids listening to Zemmour without a warning! In any case, Dreher also composed his own version and asked readers to imagine the...
