Rebuilding Christendom and the Consideration of the Alternative
As we slowly, but I trust surely, rebuild Christendom, i.e., push back and defeat secularism, Christians and the church in general need to rebuild the Christian plausibility structures of Western society. I recently wrote about the role Jordan Peterson is playing in...
To a Thousand Generations: The Triumph of the Covenant
I was born and raised a Catholic which was my religious life until I went away to college at 18 and was born-again into an Evangelical and Protestant faith bearing little resemblance to Catholicism. The primary reason I embraced this new version of Christianity was...

In a comment on Facebook recently I said, “Secularism is dead,” and I got this not unreasonable response: Not sure why secularism is dead, but post-modern thinking and critical theory are alive and well. Looked at as a snapshot of the current historical moment, of...

The title of this post is almost an axiom among modern Americans. We may hear it put in other ways as well, like "as long it makes you happy," or "you must do what's in your heart." I've heard it said that we live in the age of "the sovereign self." In our age, the...
Bob Dylan And His Classical Education
Although I've never been a big fan of Bob Dylan, I've always appreciated his genius, and especially his ability to capture the cultural Zeitgeist. A piece by Rod Dreher titled "Bob Dylan On The Road To Damascus" explains why he was so good at this. We learn from...
