Christian Nationalism in NAZI Germany
On March 5 1922 at the Reichstag, Hitler made a speech. In part, he said: “The national regime seeks in both Christian confessions the factors most important for the maintenance of our folkdom…. The national regime will concede and safeguard to the Christian confessions the influence due them, in school and education. It is concerned with the sincere cooperation of church and state. The struggle against a materialistic philosophy for the creation of a true folk community serves the interests of the German nation as well as our Christian belief.” The following month he delivered a speech at Munich, which contained this sentiment: “I say: my feeling as a Christian…

Grief is the Only Response
Since I heard the news that Charlie Kirk died from the gunshot wound, I have been fighting back tears. I did not agree with his politics or social views, but he was a child of God, a loving family man, and he stood for what he believed in, as the Constitution gave him the right to do so. This type of tragedy should never happen. The very first posts I saw on Facebook after he was shot, and even before he was pronounced dead, was from my Democrat friends. They were shocked and stunned. “No, no, no,” they lamented. “We want change, but not like this. Violence is never the…
What Do You Meme? (Update Sep 7)
Memes, memes, they’re everywhere! Some are funny, some are inspirational, and some are just designed to spread false or misleading information. As I find memes I want to feature, I will post them here. I will limit the number to about 20 per page. When this first page has less than 20, I’ll keep adding new ones to the top until it’s full, then I’ll move them to the next page and start filling the front page again. Please note that only this first page will show on the blog, and will be the only meme page with a comment box. Subjects will include politics, science, and whatever else moves…

US National Debt
Just a few highlights of the national debt since the beginning. Maybe someday I’ll come back and make a more complete list, but I’m feeling lazy.

George Orwell’s novel 1984 appeared to be prophetic – until it got stood on its head. Cameras, Cameras, Everywhere The first closed-circuit television system (CCTV), came into being in 1942 in NAZI Germany. It was invented by an engineer named Walter Bruch for the purpose of monitoring rocket launches at a safe, indoor location. It had no recording capability, which would have made it useless for security applications, but it set the groundwork for future technology. In 1966, Marie Van Brittan Brown patented the first home security video system, but due to the high production cost, nothing much came of it directly. However, it did garner recognition in the world…

Christian Nationalism – a Dangerous Movement
This article was written by Art Jipson, Associate Professor of Sociology, University of Dayton, who originally published it on The Conversation under a Creative Commons license so it can be freely reprinted. Here it is below, unedited. I didn’t change a single letter. My own thoughts follow the article. What is the ‘Seven Mountains Mandate’ and how is it linked to political extremism in the US? Vance Boelter, who allegedly shot Melissa Hortman, a Democratic Minnesota state representative, and her husband, Mark Hortman, on June 14, 2025, studied at Christ for the Nations Institute in Dallas.

The Dope on Epstein & Trump
dope: (dohp) noun informal: a stupid person informal: information, especially from a reliable source We’re in the middle of the biggest presidential scandal since Watergate. Except I think this may keep getting bigger until it makes Watergate look like a Sunday picnic. I decided to take a brief break from the post I’ve been working on about an historical figure, and dash this one off. In my heart of hearts, I think Trump is probably guilty of, or somehow involved with, the sex trafficking and rape allegations. But my court judge mindset says they are only allegations. Nothing has been proven, and even though the circumstantial evidence is compelling, we…
The Case for Evolution
Who doesn’t love dinosaurs? My introduction to them came when my mother bought me a set of children’s encyclopedias. Maybe I was around four years old? I fell in love! Then, when I started to school, the library had books on dinosaurs. I was in heaven! Many decades later the internet came along. When Facebook got started, I found science-oriented groups to join, and I learned more about dinosaurs. And I’ve found so many wonderful videos and documentaries online at YouTube and other streaming sources. I’ve learned more about paleontology, anthropology and geology in a few years than I did my entire life before then. The Emergence of Paleontology Humans…
Social Media Experiment
I seldom post anything political on my Facebook timeline because fights erupt amongst the commenters. Once in a while I’ll post something, though, but I include one or more links to provide the relevant facts. The other day, I saw the above meme. As is, it’s deceptive. I was going to post it with a link that clarified the details. But at the last second, I impulsively decided to omit the link, and in lieu of the link and explanation, I posted the statement, “You get what you vote for”. That was my amateur version of a sociological field experiment. I wanted to see how people would react. Oh My…
Boys vs. Girls in Vintage TV Shows
The photo above is a CBS promo shot from 1966. The child stars shown are Bill Mumy, Barry Livingston, Ron Howard, Anissa Jones, Stanley Livingston, Johnny Whitaker & Clint Howard. I was noticing only one girl and started thinking… why were most of the television child stars in the 1950s through the mid 1960s boys? Why so few girls? When there was a girl, she was usually one of two or more children. Examples of popular shows follow. Notice a pattern? If there was one or two children, they were almost always boys. Andy Griffith Show – Opie Flipper – Sandy and Bud I Love Lucy – little Ricky Dennis…

Keystone Cops DC Style: The 1st Hundred Days
Have you ever seen any Keystone Cops episodes? This was a slapstick film series popular in theatres over a hundred years ago, good for a lot of laughs. The Keystone Cops were bumbling, incompetent fools, their attempts to keep law and order ending in a series of disasters. Hmmm, that sounds familiar. The second Trump administration is a group of bumbling, incompetent fools, but without the benefit of jocularity. This post covers only some of the goofs, oops, screw ups, mistakes, blunders and “administrative errors” made by the Trump administration in the first hundred days. I’d have to write a book to cover all of them! One of his first…

The Last Supper
Bumping this for Easter. First published March 30, 2024 This post is for anyone who is interested in having a clearer picture of the most famous Passover meal in all of history, or any Passover meal from that time period. It’s interesting how society is so strongly influenced by everything from fiction novels to modern media, movies, and even the paintings from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. People get such wrong ideas about all kinds of things. This phenomenon is illustrated well by “The Last Supper” mural by the Italian artist Leonardo Da Vinci. Aside from his suspiciously Medieval European depiction of Jesus and the apostles, he has them…
