New here? These are a few positions I hold.
I am a Christian. I take the Bible seriously.
The fight for truth is part of the fight for souls.
I am a capitalist. The U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence are correct. Individual rights come from our nature, not from the state.
Government exists to ban the initiation of force. The same principles that make a government necessary also set its limits.
I oppose using the state to police doctrine. Jailing a pastor for denying the Trinity, or making blasphemy a crime, is a mistake.
America is nation built on a creed, not a bloodline. I believe in lawful citizenship, liberty over servitude, and inalienable rights as final.
All races are equal. Cultures are not. Race and culture have no essential link. I denounce white nationalism, white supremacy, and racism.
Leftism is incompatible with Christianity. There is no coherent “Christian Left.” Democratic politicians are morally monstrous, as is the party platform. Voting for that platform or those people is a serious moral wrong, and a local church must expel people who do that.
On immigration, secure the border first. Treat illegal entry as a breach to be stopped and reversed, not managed. Allow no new legal immigration until we have abolished the welfare state and public education.
All immigrants should be barred from welfare immediately.
Socialism and similar collectivist ideologies are the major cause of injustice in the world.
My frame: reason, individual rights, limited government, and a country that stays able to defend them.

I am convinced that the people running around, saying the most insane things are either clinically ill or just evil.
#AristotleBot Question 2 of 150:
Is faith believing without evidence?
No. That’s the skeptic’s definition, and a lot of Christians have quietly accepted it.
So what is faith?
In Hebrews 11, faith is assurance and conviction. And a conviction has to come from somewhere. In Redeeming the West we put it this way: “Faith does not supplement the evidence; it is a response to the evidence.” (p. 31)
Faith comes after knowledge. It doesn’t fill the gap where knowledge runs out.
Here’s a simple example:
Say you loan a friend money. You can’t see the future. But you’ve known him for years and watched how he keeps his word. Your trust rests on what you know about him. That’s faith, and it’s reasonable.
It works the same way with God. A man hears the gospel and sees that it matches what he already knows. He knows he’s a sinner. He knows the world points to a Creator. God changes his heart too, and I don’t want to skip that. But the step right before his assurance is a thought. As the book says, “Faith is a response to the real knowledge that Christianity is true.” (p. 42)
And this matters for Christians.
If you think faith means believing without evidence, you’ll end up misunderstanding how all knowledge works. That mistake doesn’t stay in church. It spreads into ethics and politics.
A faulty concept of faith sits underneath a lot of the conformity and cowardice causing the decline in the West.

When Proverbs mentions "the scoffer," just imagine this face.
Replying to @conservmillen @MattWalshBlog
This stupid face is literally the only argument they have lol

At this point, would you even be surprised to see a real version of this image come across your screen?
Men ought to deal with one another by persuasion. We are rational beings who are designed to do so—and who are capable of doing so.
~From “Redeeming the West”
Q: Do you have advice on maintaining a godly attitude and pattern of speech toward others while criticizing them?
A: The measure of prudence should be:
-Were your words true?
-Did you have reason to think it would be beneficial and strategic to say it?
-Was there something good that you planned to accomplish by saying it?
It is a good idea to pray that your words will do good and not damage in the long term, and to pray that you will always speak in a way that pleases God.
Given the kind of things I discuss in my online writing, I frequently pray that I would treat other people as I would have them treat me, if the situation were reversed.
I believe that, if I am intending to follow the golden rule, that will save me from many unnecessary errors throughout my life.

James Fishback is the right hand of the left.
I will take this opportunity to answer his claims in the same fashion that I responded to the @AFpost misleading post:
I was a guest at the event, seated in the VIP section alongside several Florida District 13 Republican leaders. The event through @RepLuna and featured Byron Donalds @ByronDonalds, Ashleigh Moody @AshleyMoodyFL, and Jim Jordan @Jim_Jordan
as speakers.
Mr. Fishback is an agitating propagandist. He is attempting to spread anti-liberty concepts (what amounts to a form of Critical America Theory) alongside radical formulations of Christian Nationalism. Christian Nationalism of this stripe is simply Roman Catholic Integralism with Protestant characteristics: a rejection of classical liberalism, religious liberty, and the American order in favor of subordinating the state (and economy) to a quasi-spiritual authority for the “common good.”
Fishback is attempting to use Trotsky-inspired entryism to gain control of Florida’s young conservatives.@ConceptualJames has done quite a bit of work exposing entryism strategies over the last 7 years.
Entryism is a strategic process of infiltration into an institution (in this case, conservative Florida politics) by hostile forces - the strategy of entering an institution and insinuating yourself as a subversive, disruptor, divider, wedge, or plant in order to eventually transform it from within and bring it into service for your militant ideological ambitions.
It is an old Soviet/Communist technique (linked to Trotskyist tactics and “boring from within”) used by Gramscian infiltrators pursuing a “long march through the institutions” to establish counter-hegemonic control. Marxist or Woke entryism, in this sense, means going into and infecting institutions that would not normally welcome the ideology.
The pattern is the same whether the content is left-wing Critical Theory or a reactionary faux right-wing Integralist/anti-liberty program. The core premise is to first make entrance, then purge “enemies” (the existing membership and the hegemony, political positions, beliefs, or culture they maintain).
The five steps of entryism:
1. Demand access
2. Demand accommodation
3. Demand a seat at the table (access to power)
4. Demand the table (control of the rules/power)
5. Demand control over the institution (or the whole room)
Once inside the targeted organization (in this case, the Republican Party of Florida) the entryists do exactly what entryists always do: they sow internal discord (“They kicked me out of the rally!”), introduce polarizing topics on polarizing terms (antisemitism, socialism, “the real right,” etc.), use whatever standing they gain to bring in more of their ideological comrades, and then purge the people who actually belong there.
To sum it up: the goal of entryism is simple and always the same: enter an institution (a political party, a church, a movement, a media company), transform or capture it from within, and subordinate it to a radical militant agenda. That’s precisely what the DSA and Justice Democrats already did to the Democratic Party. It’s what the Woke Right and various other entryists are now attempting inside the Republican Party and Christian denominations.
Don’t let them.

Helpful concepts.
I want a more Christian nation for me and my family to live in.
I want secure borders.
I want immigration control.
I want a lower crime rate.
I want liberal judges who legislate from the bench replaced.
I want abortion abolished.
I want stronger families.
I want fathers who lead their homes.
I want children raised to love Jesus Christ.
I want churches that preach the whole counsel of God.
I want biblical morality to shape our culture.
I want our nation to respect the sanctity of human life.
I want religious liberty protected.
I want our communities to be safer, our marriages to be stronger, and our culture to reflect biblical truth.
But here’s the question: How do we get there?
The answer isn’t simply to elect the right president, pass the right laws, or put the right people on the Supreme Court.
Those things matter. But they cannot regenerate a human heart.
The gospel must be the starting point.
The gospel transforms individuals.
Transformed individuals build Christ-centered families.
Christ-centered families strengthen local churches.
Faithful churches influence communities.
And communities shaped by biblical truth can influence the direction of a nation.
This is a bottom-up mission, not a top-down strategy.
I’m not saying Christians should abandon politics. I’m saying politics cannot accomplish what only the gospel can accomplish.
Our ultimate mission isn’t to establish an earthly kingdom through political power. Our mission is to proclaim the kingdom of God through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
If we want a nation that honors Christ, we must start by proclaiming Christ.
Not the government as our savior.
Not a political party as our hope.
Not the state as the engine of spiritual transformation.
It’s Jesus Christ. He’s the answer.
El-Sayed’s new ad: your groceries cost too much because of Israel
This is one of the most comical ads this election cycle. Yes, Americans are chatting at the grocery store about how they can’t buy groceries because their tax dollars “go to Israel” 🙄 😂 nevermind the fact that Israel has invested 100% of military aid in the U.S. economy since Oct 7, and has also purchased over $1 billion *additional* in arms, according to DoD. Federal military aid is also prohibited from being spent on anything other than U.S. arms, so the line about healthcare is even more comical. El Sayed and his Islamist fans like Cenk Uygur want and expect American voters to be so stupid they never check.
Not only is this ad insane, conspiratorial, and antisemitic — it is also flat out false. El Sayed isn’t for the people of Michigan, he isn’t even for America. He is for the Muslim Brotherhood.
