Some Good Nazis
Certainly there were. Similarly, we might say today that we know some good people who support “abortion rights,” even though we regard such a deed as the murderous, blasphemous, holocaustic slaughter of innocents. We confess that we know folks on that “other side” who are otherwise fine people. So, again, there were some good Nazis […]

Song of Solomon 3:6f. (Poetized)
Like “columns of smoke perfumed with myrrh” Came Solomon down the road With all the scented powders of a merchant, A traveling coach of sixty men around. (7) O what a mighty fine sight it was: All eyes upon him! What’s the buzz?” The men were all “”wielders of the sword”; (8) Guarded against terrors! […]

Perverts Do What Perverts Do
“Don’t like abortion? Don’t have one!” So goes the flippant quip offered by Some asinine pro-aborts in reply To the call for folks to stop murdering Those little ones in the womb. Quite a stupid little quip, indeed. Like: “Opposed to slavery? Then don’t buy any slaves!” “Opposed to rape? Then, Just don’t rape anybody!” […]

Pater Familias Paraphernalia
Pater familias paraphernalia Is a problem in our house: Dad likes to save mementos: Mom likes to throw them out! Everyone’s got his “thing” to do: Some like to work, some like to chew And don’t know just what to do. We, each, have a plan; Can’t just sit, (You understand!): Some like to write, […]

The Resurrection of the Body to Come
As the flesh wanes and we lose our strength, we may think upon the words of Tertullian. Our flesh, indeed, will rise. It will be reconstructed, indeed resurrected from the ground or sea or dust on the moon (post 20th century!) He writes in book book V, chapter 10 of his treatise “Against Marcion” he […]

Ike and the Ladies (or “Family Reflections”)
Ike grew up with lots of carping; There were ladies everywhere. Over anything they loved to chirp (He offered no more than a burp), But he made a way through the harem Played around sometimes to scare ’em. ‘Twas a mighty fine way to grow up! Then college came along to interrupt. They, each, had […]

The Devil
Devil keeps thrashing at the Church, Cutting off a leg here, an arm there, But never quite getting that blow, The lethal one to the neck! He just can’t seem to get there. O but relentless he tries and lies To himself and everyone, and he cries: “I’ll cut your throat! I’ll kill you!” But […]

A Bit of Stupidity from George Carlin, Recalled
“How come when it’s us, it’s an abortion, and when it’s a chicken, it’s an omelet?”—George Carlin Kind of stupid, actually, George. We eat chickens; we don’t (we civilized among us, that is) eat children. Can’t figure out the difference between a chicken and a human? Well, that is understandable if we are all just […]

Spring Board Diving
A Lost American Treasure Let us reason together. How boring is it these days to go to a pool and watch kids float around with their plastic, air-inflated devices? Absent from our times now is the high dive! It was my go-to event throughout the summer wherever we lived growing up in eight states from […]

What is with NR?
National Review is too pure for American Revolutionaries, Civil War heroes, or anyone else standing for truth and against The American Holocaust. Would it have been okay to use some rough antics in opposition to Hitler? Think of the pro-abort Dems as just that – Hitlerians – nothing better! Best buck up, NR! No time […]

Not a Regular Trooper
Now, if I were a trooper, Not a regular pooper, I’d want my life to count! Not a run-o’-the-mill guy; I can tell you why: Bought by the One who had to die When the Father sent Him down; Had to give up that crown. So I give up mine just the same; It’s not […]
