To Purify the Church, Cut off the Money

Folks I interact with IRL and online increasingly ask me what they can do about the American Catholic hierarchy's deafness to their concerns. Whether it's complicity in the canon law-violating restriction of access to the sacraments, covering up abuse of adolescent boys by gay priests, or facilitating the invasion of…

The Moral Calculus

A reader lays out the moral calculus of taking infanticide-related medical treatments, specifically for the purpose of warding off Corona-chan. Here is my take on things: -The vaccines were created using cell lines from aborted fetuses. Some just in testing, others in production. Thus using them constitutes cooperation with evil.…

Escape from LA

Escape from LA

In the early 21st century, an American presidential candidate wins a highly unorthodox election by leveraging a national disaster. As the front man for an extreme moralizing movement, he oversees the implementation of sweeping neo-puritanical directives to enforce his sect's moral vision nationwide. Federal law enforcement is tasked with prosecuting…

The Frog for Whom the Bell Tolls

The Frog for Whom the Bell Tolls

One of my recent posts on the last great age of 2D gaming put me in a mood to revisit the tragically poorly served classic Link's Awakening. I'm still savoring this playthrough, so a full review will have to wait. In the meantime, here's an intriguing tidbit from retro gaming…

Death Cult Sacrament

Death Cult Sacraments

The paradox of tolerance was a favorite canard of the Left back when they were still pretending to be moral relativists. You still hear it sometimes from Gen Xers who didn't get the updated Woke Cult rubrics. According to philosopher Karl Popper, the paradox goes that a total commitment to…

Renfield Americans

An enduring meme phrase used to describe out-of-touch and out-of-control Western elites is "the Vampire Castle." This term gained traction because it's easy to picture people like Hillary Clinton, Bill Gates, or Klaus Schwab dangling upside down from the rafters of some crumbling fortress overlooking the Rhine.  They may as…

Shadow Hearts

Victory may have defeated JRPGs, but video games represent the one segment of pop culture that survived Ground Zero. At least for a decade or so. Today, the corporatization of vidya has made up for lost time with a vengeance. Consider the outright disappearance of the entire video game midlist.…

Demon Face

It Showed Itself

A comment occasioned by a recent post offers us a twofold tale of high strangeness and spiritual warfare. I have seen demons myself. One night, after a series of bizarre dreams, I woke up to the faint sound of my mother calling for help. My mother lives far across town…

The Devil Believes in You

Recently I've received a number of questions pertaining to spiritual warfare, particularly the mechanisms of demonic activity. New readers find this blog all the time, so it's important to give refreshers on the basics from time to time. Sun Tzu 101 dictates that you can't beat an enemy you don't…

An Icon Not Made by Hands

A major point in Christianity's favor that sets it apart from other religions and bolsters its truth claims is the historicity of its central events. Unlike other traditions' myths of demigods and divinized heroes, Christ's birth, ministry, and death are not said to have occurred in some nebulous age of…
