Like several recent posts, I really don’t want to write this one, because I know it will make some people angry, but I must. And I write not as someone who claims to have all the answers, but as a fellow seeker of the best future for our country. The subject of this...
Recent Events
Declaration of Dependence
Much has been written about our 250th Anniversary by people much smarter than me. I particularly enjoy the Opinion pieces in the Wall Street Journal. Here are two really good, recent ones by Gerald Baker and Barton Swaim. I also re-read the post I wrote 13 years ago...
Three Short Observations
There are many difficult, weighty issues confronting us this Memorial Day Weekend in 2026, but I’m going to begin the summer with three unconnected, much lighter personal observations which won’t take long and which probably won’t mean much to anyone else…but here...
How Claude AI Compares Progressive Conformity to Faith-Based Western Beliefs
I'm sure that many of you are deep into using AI to assist in both work and leisure tasks. Others may not yet have ventured into these waters at all. Either way, I hope you will read through this post, to see Claude AI's comprehensive answers two of my prompts on how...

Will We Learn This Time?
The death of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis should rightly concern everyone and invite transparent investigation. Early this week the truth appeared to be coming out, as one would hope, and so far it has certainly not been on the side of the Ice Agents or the early...
Five Fabulous Fixes for President Trump
Whatever you think of President Trump’s accomplishments in the first nine months of his second term, you have to agree that they are significant, and that he can be a strong force for change. But he will soon be a lame duck, unable to run again. And he will then be on...
The Spiritual Battle
September 10th has now taken its place with September 11th and December 7th as dates we will always remember, because on those dates our nation was attacked and then tested. The cowardly assassination of Charlie Kirk is, I believe, a watershed moment. I was praying...
Engage, Don’t Demonize
I had lunch with a good friend this week, and we lamented the demonization today of almost every public figure by some group or other public figure. Since I’ve written two novels about demons and spiritual warfare, with the second, Nation On The Edge, set in...
