“Where there are no gods, ghosts reign….” Novalis, 1798 We have a myth in Western society. It is that the world was once magic and religious and that now it has become (with a few hold outs) largely secular and atheistic. But some historians have pointed out that this narrative doesn’t exactly hold. Poll after poll shows that populations, even in supposedly secular societies, tend to hold views in direct contrast with scientific materialism. If those populations don’t explicitly affirm belief in an organized religion or theology (such as Christianity) the people nonetheless tend to believe in ghosts, spirits, the...

After it was asserted that cow flatulence contributes to “global warming,” some greentopians concluded that all animal agriculture should be ended; this, of course, means eliminating most of the cows on Earth. Given this, with a new study claiming that human breathing also contributes to global warming, should most of our planet’s people be gone, too?Actually, this has already been suggested, with a World Economic Forum (WEF) advisor saying last year that we “don’t need the vast majority of the population” and that there was a growing class of “useless people.”

Peter Boghossian taught at Portland State University until he saw how DEI turned our education system into social justice factories where grievance and division are the only outputs. While Peter and PragerU CEO Marissa Streit disagree on some issues, they find common ground on the fact that our education institutions need to be abandoned and started anew.

For all their talk of evenhandedness, winsomeness, and giving others the benefit of the doubt, these ideals are tossed out the window the minute the discussion turns to matters that conservatives deeply care about and are willing to advocate for at the political level. As Christians, we should call out this double standard for what it is: hypocrisy. The term “white evangelical” has become purely pejorative in both secular and professedly-Christian news outlets. We live in contentious times. With virtually every major event or story comes a flood of news reports from both major news outlets and a seemingly endless...

In his commentary, “Crazy Stuff—Fabricated Details of Western Oil Sanctions Against Russia,” Sundance over on the The Last Refuge casts light onto the fabricated reality we are living in. The West and America are now as the Soviet Union had been—existing in a fabricated reality behind an iron curtain:“ I’m very serious when I share with people that almost everything we understand about the geopolitical purposes and impacts of sanctions against Russian economic interests is entirely fabricated. However, because the scale of the propaganda against us is so effective, breaking the mental/cognitive barrier is almost impossible.” SundanceThe iron curtain symbolizes...

The USA led “western” sanctions against Russian interests were not designed to keep Russia isolated financially, they were designed to keep USA and Western banking customers walled in. The end goal? To create a dollar based CBDC for western finance.In order to accomplish that goal, WESTERN govt/banking needs full control. Any alternative (BRICS+ currency/trade) is a threat.
