Breaking Free

2018_05 13 Breaking Free

I read this last night in one sitting … couldn’t put it down. Today is an especially appropriate day to feature this book, because it was the power of the author’s motherly love that ultimately gave her the courage to escape.

The inside story of the FLDS cult is interesting in itself and I particularly like how the author has sought always to do God’s will and find meaning and strength in all her experiences. But the story also has left me pondering how much of her cult experiences mirror the left-wing cult-ure in our country today.

Trump is More Factual than Media Fact Checkers

Trump: “Ninety-eight percent of mass public shootings have occurred in places where guns are banned.”

HuffPo called that a lie, alleging there is no “official” definition of “mass shootings.”

2018 Stormy Daniels and Michael Avenatti

Stormy Daniels is a hooker who apparently had sex with Donald Trump at some time in the past. I’m not sure what that has to do with anything or anybody besides Melania and God, but liberals (who think we should all PAY FOR THEIR BIRTH CONTROL) have  been acting all shocked and fainting-couchy about it.

Caritas vs. Charity

2018_05 11 God loves a cheerful giver

The great virtue known in Latin as “Caritas” is translated into English as “Charity.” Sadly, the word “charity” in English has come to mean:

1. an organization set up to provide help and raise money for those in need.
2. the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need. Continue reading →

Obama Library Meme

The collapse of the Iran Deal was yet another devastating blow to Barack Obama’s so-called “legacy.” It has also spawned a new giggle-icious internet meme.
