The parent of a young student at a New York private school has published a scathing letter against the school’s implementation of Critical Race Theory into course curriculum….Why is a private school in New York City important?

Read MoreCulture is one of the hallmarks of what it means to be human. No other species develops and protects diverse ways of life, traditions, habits, foods, and practices like humans do. Indeed, nonhuman animals cannot even conceive of things as complex as culture. Of course, this is because humans are made in God’s Image.

Read MoreWhen the declaration of independence was finally drafted and signed it immortalized a philosophy of governance that allowed for the birth of the most powerful, free, and just nation in history. This philosophy is the idea that government exists to serve its people and it derives its powers from the consent of the governed.

Read MoreI did not watch the Grammys this year, and chances are that you did not either. According to media reports, the estimated audience of the awards plummeted by more than 50% compared to last year.

He declared that modernism would breed men without chests – people so concerned with the scientific that they failed to cultivate virtue and thus gave into their most base desires.

Read MoreDave Ramsey, who some have affectionately called America’s Uncle or Uncle Dave, came under fire for his remarks about $600 stimulus checks. Ramsey, on a Fox News interview, said that he does not support stimulus checks. He said: “I don't believe in a stimulus check because if $600 or $1400 changes your life you were pretty much screwed already.” You got other issues going on. Ramsey was accused of “poor-shaming” and many tried to cancel him. Being, the stubborn and outspoke person that he is, Ramsey did not cave to cancel culture.
