No Human Gospel

Jacques Monod was a brilliant microbiologist, one who was present at the very beginning of the explorations that led to the discovery of the role that genes play in the development and evolution of life. Along with his coworkers, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1965 for physiology / medicine on account of their elaboration of the mechanisms by which genes are either expressed or repressed in the course of an organism's development. As detailed in this biography , he was a fierce partisan during the years of the Vichy government's betrayal of France, and played a leading role in the forces of the Resistance movement -- at considerable risk to his own life. The same book chronicles his lifelong friendship with another Resistance supporter, the Algerian-born Albert Camus, who clandestinely inspired his countrymen through his uplifting editorials published, despite numerous Nazi attempts at suppression, in an underground journal of the French resistance during World War II, c

So who is the most unfunny "comedian" in America? Kathy Griffin? Bill Maher? Chelsea Handler? There are lots of choices, the state of comedy being what it is these days. My nominee would be Sarah Silverman, a semi-literate woman known mostly for voice work ( The Simpsons , Crank Yankers , and Wreck-It Ralph ), sexual and scatological "humor," and the foulest mouth this side of an NBA locker room. She did nothing to change that reputation in a recent plunge into abortion politics. According to LifeNews : On February 1, the Lady Parts Justice League , (founded by Daily Show creator Lizz Winstead) held a 'telethon,' called Life Is a Living Nightmare: A Telethon to Fix It. [I won't link to it. If you want to pollute your mind, you can find it on YouTube.] The fundraiser, hosted by Winstead herself, along with comedian Sarah Silverman, featured almost 4 hours of bizarre content, including abortion charades, an interview with abortionist Willie Parker, and p

God, needless to say, is neither male nor female. He is, however, referred to in almost exclusively male language in Scripture. Jesus, for instance, usually calls Him "Father," and presumably knew a thing or two about the proper way to address the Almighty. To the extent that feminine language is ever used, it is strictly metaphorical, and refers to one of God's attributes. There's good reason for this, aside from God's self-revelation, the most important being the need to distinguish the God of Israel from the female fertility gods of the Canaanites.  None of this matters, however to the modern female [anti-]fertility cult that the Episcopal Church has become. So at its diocesan convention this week, the delegates of the Diocese of Washington DC decided that they knew better how to address God than Jesus. According to LifeSiteNews : The Episcopal church in the Diocese of Washington, D.C., passed a resolution last week to stop using masculine pronouns for G

Edina, Minnesota is a suburb of Minneapolis, a town of almost 50,000 that has apparently been invaded and conquered by disciples of Mao Tse-tung. Its public schools have been transformed into re-education centers, complete with punishment for dissenters and mobs of mindless ideological robots demanding compliance with Racial Orthodoxy. Katherine Kersten of the Center of the American Experiment reports at the Weekly Standard on the progressive effort to reshape an entire school system in accordance with the most bizarre, totalitarian impulses of academia's social justice warriors: The shift began in 2013, when Edina school leaders adopted the 'All for All' strategic plan—a sweeping initiative that reordered the district’s mission from academic excellence for all students to 'racial equity.'  'Equity' in this context does not mean 'equality' or 'fairness.' It means racial identity politics—an ideology that blames minority students’ acade
