OKLAHOMA Wesleyan University President Dr. Everett Piper at Life Site News:

“Now how in the world is it possible for anybody to be pro-woman if they now, under the Title IX ‘Dear Colleague’ letter, which tells us to deny the biological fact of the female, and give her rights — the biological female’s right to the athletic field and to her shower and to her toilet and to her facilities — give those rights to someone who fancies himself or fabricates female identity out of thin air?” Piper asked.

Frederick Bastiat, writing in his little book, The Law, made the profound observation that the perversion of law takes two divergent forms: simple greed, and the pretended love of humanity.  C. S. Lewis made a similar observation, as did Jesus when he singled out for special condemnation both the love of mammon and the moral hypocrisy of the religious leadership of the time.  What is profound is that these two styles of faithlessness––which on the surface seem to be opposed––both spring from the same root.  They are both forms of idolatry whereby the God of heaven is deposed in favor of the gods of self and of this world.

Sadly, Trump’s supporters believe he has the power to ensure America’s continued place as the world’s largest producer and consumer of material goods, as if this were the highest goal a nation and its people could aspire to.  Even so, he probably won’t succeed. (more…)

HERE ARE two additional comments — powerful essays, really — to add to the long and sometimes heated discussion on  “Exercise and Femininity.” The first comment is from Mrs. W. (who goes by her full surname here). She began the original conversation. Stephen Ippolito also responds with further thoughts on the concept of dignity and how the Mother of God is the highest counter-force to feminism. It’s a long comment, but well worth reading in its entirety.

Mrs. Willodson writes:

Thank you for your opinions and for those of your readers. Most helpful to me was your comment:

“I think a woman should not rush too much or push. She should be as much as possible in a state of potential prayer.”

That is what woman is. Tranquility. Peace. Calm. Her husband, and children and everyone around her for that matter depend on her for this. Exercise and clothing (even posture, hand gestures, hair style, facial expressions, etc.) that don’t outwardly complement or cultivate this type of inner peace is unbecoming to a woman. Some of your readers may say that jogging or swimming or whatever brings them this inner peace. Indeed, I have before had the habit of “clearing my head” by running. But this is a farce. They are wrongly depending on a natural activity for inner peace instead of doing a supernatural one: prayer. And they are forgetting that they do not live for themselves. Men and women both need to act in such a way as to not cause scandal to others. (more…)

  A SCENE from the TV show "Portlandia."

Rabbis wholeheartedly welcome refugees to Texas, but are noticeably silent on the possibility of welcoming refugees to Israel, which is much closer to Syria and Africa --- and has taken none. Do you think the idea that American Jews, with many noble exceptions, are collectively waging psychological and political warfare against the non-Jewish American people is an irrational conspiracy theory? Here is an ongoing list of prominent anti-Goyimites. Many make a career out of vilifying, marginalizing, and demonizing whites and aggressively working for the wholesale transformation of Western society, or what's left of it. And they call us the haters! The guilt industrial complex includes Jonathan Wittenberg (below), who wants the UK to welcome thousands more new immigrants, making the English a minority in their own land because "God loves the refugee," and Ian Reifowitz, the Huffington Post journalist who says, "White identity offers bland nothingness or racism." Imagine gentile intellectuals in Israel (there are few) making comparable arguments against the majority culture. You can't imagine it because it wouldn't happen. While white-bashing is de rigeur in American corporate and academic institutions, just watch what happens to any American intellectual who criticizes Jews. His career is over. He is defamed and stabbed relentlessly in the back until he is a bloodied non-person. Only a demented hater would dare to criticize the Holy People. We've fought for them, we've died for them, we've cried for them. But after all that, they still don't like us!

COMMENTARY by Jon Rappoport:

Holt adopted the persona of a machine, and he pulled it off.

Which means? This is where the world is heading, if the technocrats have anything to say about it. You “need the best data—and one day soon you’ll get the data from a computer your brain is connected to. All will be well.” (more…)

Eva Woods does not have the capacity for self sacrifice.

In the article she mentions a beautiful wedding held inside a 15th-century castle in Ireland. They took exotic vacations and owned a beautiful home. However one thing is glaringly obvious: No children. It is a shame because motherhood could have slowly chipped away at her debilitating ego.

Several of her friend’s marriages also failed around the same time. Again, there are no children. I’m starting to see a pattern. (more…)

I AM not a fan of Donald Trump, as readers of this site know. I am not a fan of the Trump-worshipping cult of Ann Coulter, David Duke and the Alt-Right. Truthfully, it repels me. I don’t think Trump will bring about some great American renaissance. Aside from his character, his casino/mafia connections, his very immoral personal life, his blistering attacks on other countries and peoples, his fanatical support for the terrorist state of Israel, his militarism, his choice of neocon advisors and his support for the totalitarian LGBT agenda, aside from the reality that our problems are systemic, I don’t trust him. I don’t trust that even his nationalism is genuine. He is in bed with an evil oligarchy. Will he make American great again? No, he won’t. It wasn’t great in the first place, and his solutions are band-aids at best. Will he effectively tackle the immigration problem? I am not convinced that he will. As for the economy, the $38 billion we are about to hand over to Israel would pay for a lot of college educations and create a lot of jobs. Where is Donald’s good business sense when you need it? We are a debt-ridden nation. We are enslaved to the Federal Reserve and its state-sponsored usury. He will not change that. A revolution against the American system, its cabal of controllers and its debt-based, predatory capitalism is in order.

What should we do with this election in the meantime? Which of these two shady characters is less likely to lead us to World War III and wreck the remaining semblance of order? It’s a tough question.

EVA WOODS, a novelist and writing coach, dumps her husband because he no longer fulfills her romantic expectations and then adds insult to injury by writing about it. When women are taught from an early age that they are The Wonderful Sex, it's not surprising that so many become cruel and heartless egotists.

One way I entertain myself in line at the grocery store is to look at what other folks have in their carts. It’s really sad what I see most of the time. Here’s a tour of a grocery cart that wouldn’t be unusual at all:

·         Gatorade — It has electrolytes, doncha know? This stuff should, at most, be consumed by athletes in small quantities. If you aren’t sweating a lot, it is nothing but sugar.

·         Soda — No need to explain that. If you drink soda regularly, take a month or two off and try one. You’ll realize how bad they taste.

·         Packaged crackers — Even the crackers that advertise themselves as healthy are filled with sugar.

·         TV Meals — Who knows how these things are even made? They’re filled with sugar too.

·         Lunch meats — You might think these are made of the “other” parts of animals. I wish that was the whole truth, because then they would be somewhat nutritious. They’re made from the other parts plus a gross chemical slurry. (more…)

I WATCHED the presidential debate last night and was amazed at how the man famous for being a fighter left so much of what Hillary said unchallenged. I thought he would crush the Queen of War. He did not. He was forceful at moments, but at other times he seemed to give it away. (more…)

ON May 8, 1643, Noel Chabanel left his secure and comfortable position as a Jesuit priest and rhetoric teacher in Toulouse, France to travel to the Canadian wilderness to become a missionary among the Hurons. He never was as successful as he had hoped at his missionary work. Some say he failed to convert a single person among the Indians of North America. Though he was an intelligent man, accomplished in other languages, he could not master the Huron language, no matter how hard he tried. Being a person of delicate sensibilities, he found the ways of the Hurons, including the food, smells and customs, almost unbearable. It was so difficult for him that he vowed to spend the rest of his life uncomplainingly among these primitive people: "I pray, then, 0 Lord, that You will deign to accept me as a permanent servant in this mission and that You will render me worthy of so sublime a ministry." He was murdered when he was struck with a tomahawk on Dec. 8, 1649 by a Huron apostate and dumped in an icy river. His body was never found. Noel Chabanel, who died at the age of 36, succeeded magnificently at one thing in this wilderness: his desire to give his life for God. Today is the feast of the eight men known as the North American Martyrs, who together did succeed in converting many of the natives. They include Jean de…

ABOUT SEVENTY-PERCENT of the protestors arrested in Charlotte were from out-of-state. See more at Zero Hedge.

VIGILANT CITIZEN says something I have said here before: Donald Trump is purposely being used to discredit honorable opposition to open borders. Trump has deployed nasty verbiage (his loyal sidekick Ann Coulter is even more offensive) and the media has a field day with it: Trump’s role in this charade is to lead the anti-Soros movement, associate it with ugly terms such as “racism”, mix it up with the ridiculousness of the “Alt-Right”, and to ultimately crash the entire thing in an intense fire of stupidity. In this sense, Trump is just as useful to the elite as Hillary. Both of them play a role. The “outsider” will probably stay outside and the “insider” will mostly likely stay inside. And you don’t actually have a choice: The 2016 presidential election is a complete sham.
