Millennials in space! — A different take on The Last Jedi

Jan 10, 2018 by American Vision 17 Comments

A guest post, by Suzannah Rowntree (Warning: This review contains spoilers for Star Wars: The Last Jedi). Since its release last month, the most recent Star Wars film has proven to be somewhat divisive. Personally, I loved The Last Jedi for the very same reason some conservatives hated it: the themes of progress and repentance. […]

Hey now, let’s go easy on Kuntzman’s AR-15 trauma

Jun 17, 2016 by Dr. Joel McDurmon 5 Comments

This story has made its rounds for amusement, but it should also be highlighted as an example of the fine acumen of liberal reporting. Seriously.

Jun 29, 2015 by Dr. Joel McDurmon 41 Comments

Among the limited but strident opposition, with few exceptions, was exhibited much of the sentimentalism and illogical non-sequitur already refuted in the article. For the few exceptions, perhaps, if time and chance allow, I will offer my responses at some later date. I wish only […]

America’s first gay marriage, the welfare State, and the Republicans who made it all happen

Sep 3, 2014 by Dr. Joel McDurmon 24 Comments

I made the point in Restoring America, in both the chapters on Education and Welfare, that the welfare state in America grew out of secularized (apostatized) New England Puritanism. I had no idea exactly how deep that rabbit-hole goes. What I had not realized fully at the time is just how far this movement spread […]
