The Immoral State

Government is immoral.

The Price of Beauty

The Price of Beauty is eternal damnation moderated by good works and acts of contrition. Peccat fortiter, Luther said. Peccat, brother, but also build in the name and for the Glory of God!

Cappax Imperii – Part 1

To be a Leader takes balls, smarts, and discipline. These are values as scarce in politics today as an honest man in the Temple at the time of Jesus of Nazareth.

Born Too Late for Honor and Glory

This day and age makes me sick. In fact, it makes us all sick. It sickens me to live in this ignominious world inhabited by so many ignoble creatures. If I had a time machine, I'd use it.

Surrender or suicide

Nuclear arms have kept the world at Peace since 1945. They are the best guarantor of World Peace ever invented by mankind. It's a MAD world out there. You need to understand that.
