The death of Michael Jackson and the ensuing struggle between those that want to deify him and those that — pardon the pun — want to bury him for his alleged crimes, opens the door for a much needed discussion about child molestation.
Full disclosure: not a fan. A visually compelling artist perhaps, with [...]

Michael Jackson, Farewell Pedophile.

So I heard back from the great Christina Hoff Sommers yesterday regarding the two videos I made last weekend on her article. In the time since she’s wrote something equally good called “Persistent Myths in Feminist Scholarship.” Magnifique! Enjoy, LINK.
“One reason that feminist scholarship contains hard-to-kill falsehoods is that reasonable, evidence-backed [...]

Special midday biggun’ update. First Comes Love, Then Comes Obesity? Article in TIME, LINK. Very incriminating and a must read. I’m surprised they’d publish it, frankly.

“It’s full-on wedding season, but anyone about to pledge to have and to hold should pay closer attention to the bit about “in sickness and in health.” New research shows [...]

Cap and Steal Passes House. What a disgrace. No warming since 2001 but the topic is not open for discussion. The left wants to punish us and take over our lives. This will be yet another mechanism by which they can do so. LINK.

Well friends it’s not looking too good for me doing any INFERNOs this weekend. After work yesterday, a bolt of lightning hit our building’s transformer box and I haven’t had power since with the exception of my bedroom (where the computer has now relocated) for whatever reason. They say we won’t have power through the [...]

Choosing the rule of law over the rule of man marked a signal event in the history of civilization. Those seeking to implement “social justice” through the courts want Lady Justice to take off her blindfold so she can see the faces of the poor huddled victims of American class injustice—and rule accordingly.
Make no mistake [...]

The End of the Samurai: Japan Goes Metrosexual…LINK.

“Today, Igarashi has a new identity (and plenty of company among young Japanese men) as one of the soushoku danshi—literally translated, “grass-eating boys.” Named for their lack of interest in sex and their preference for quieter, less competitive lives, Japan’s “herbivores” are provoking a national debate about how [...]

Self-styled pro-family advocate, Scott Lively, has made a career of drawing parallels from Nazi Germany to modern homosexuality. Director of Abiding Truth Ministries, Lively has gone around the world with the message that homosexuals were responsible for Nazi totalitarianism. On the contrary, my research leads me to believe the more common view that homosexuals were indeed victims [...]

Amazing article from PJM’s Mary Grabar about “Feminist Chickens Coming Home to Roost” in regards to the appointment of Judge Sodapop Curtis–eh, I mean Sotomayor. This academic knows all about of which she speaks…unfortunately for her. LINK.

Group at the University of Chicago forms called MEN IN POWER. It drives feminists wild. LINK.

Last week I fished out on the INFERNOs as a result of 4 hours of hockey watching–and concomitant festivities at a local pizzeria–but this won’t happen tomorrow. There will be at least two updates tomorrow or my name isn’t Nathan P. Arizona. Until then, here’s an interview I had with that fellow who wrote The [...]

Disrespect and Manipulation
Humans are biologically wired for infidelity, we hear. Monogamy is an artificial lifestyle, they say. Men and women cheat on each other because they just can’t help themselves, right?  Wrong.
People who respect and value themselves don’t cheat; moreover, they attract like-minded partners.
Infidelity is a choice — as obesity, substance abuse, and ignorance are [...]

Is he pro-life or pro-choice? That was the giant unknown hanging in the balance one day in 1990 as President George H. W. Bush nominated a mystery man named David Souter for a Supreme Court seat. Both sides of the abortion issue badly wanted answers. I remember those debates, and especially the uncertainty.
