How Christians Are Killing Christianity
A Washington Times op-ed points out how faith is necessary for our nation to work well. Agreed. But sometimes those of us of faith are our own worst enemies.

The Best Argument For the Electoral College, Ever
The race for the next Governor of California is, given Katie Porter’s face-plant, turning into a three-ring circus. With the jungle primary system, the host thinks the leading Republican, Steve Hilton, has a shot. The Democrat Party is currently as fractious as the Southern California earthquake fault system, but I do not share his optimism. My reasons are for another post, another time. Meanwhile, the Dem zoo is all working to see who can get to the left farthest, fastest and that has lead to one candidate offering a position that is simply remarkable.

It’s Not About Something To Be Thankful For
I have been trying since the weekend past t0 make a single point – that we should be thankful. Not wait around for something to be thankful for, but for what we have now, in this moment, even if it is not exactly what we want or somehow less than ideal. Thankfulness as an attitude makes every thing better.

Perception, Reality, Thankfulness
Jim Geraghty, a definite realist, but no Trump fan, wrote yesterday about economic reality and the fact that Trump’s braggadocio about affordability may exceed reality. The headline was , “You Can’t Spin People’s Perceptions of Their Own Finances.” Geraghty has a point – to a point.

Little Data, Lots of Fear, and “An Abundance of Caution”
Post covid, few phrases should be more chilling than “an abundance of caution.” Based on that phrase, when data on the actual danger of covid was quite scarce, we shuttered the world. The cost remains immeasurable to this day. Much has been poured into examining the educational costs, and they are extreme. The economic loss can probably only be (poorly) estimated. We know there have been rises in deaths from disease that might have been preventable had healthcare permitted screening and routine examinations. We will be paying for our covid related “abundance of caution” for a very, very long time. And yet that phrase continues to haunt us.

The California Nightmare
I hope you are following the story of the Palisades fire last January in Los Angeles. We are in this space, but I worry that many of you tune out thinking I am just obsessed with justifying my decision to leave the state. Nothing could be further from the truth – California is a cautionary tale and it should be carefully studied and understood lest the rest of us follow suit. There is shocking new information in just the last few days.

Gratitude Is What Makes America Great
Yesterday I hinted that socialism might be a Christian ideal, but that it was impossible to execute until everyone was on the Christian bandwagon. I have been a lot of places and seen a lot of socialism, there is one single reason why it just does not work unless everyone knows God.

Politics…Imagined
It has disappeared almost as fast as it sprang into the discussion, but the video from veteran Democratic persons in Congress, telling members of the military they did not need to follow unlawful orders bears further discussion. (I had to search far and wide, but found it in unaltered, unedited and uncommented form on the Facebook page of one of the Congresspersons involved.) Everybody has rightfully asked, “What orders?” But I don’t think the non-existence of such orders is really the heart of the issue here.

The Death of Higher Education
New reports out note that college students can’t do Math (arithmetic actually) and now Harvard admits “A’s” are normative, not exceptional (breaking the heart of this once proud straight-A student.) We have a problem. Our best and brightest aren’t and our university system will soon collapse as the financial cost of engaging in it seems less and less worthwhile. Earlier this week Mary Katherine Ham told the host she did not know if college would be worth it for her children. It is a big problem.

Does Bureaucracy Breed Confusion? (Hint: YES!)
Long long ago, as the fires burned, I said that government ineptitude was at the root of all of it regarding the Los Angeles fires of last January. But that it would never be exposed because the bureaucratic stew was too thick to pick through. That it would end up with a bunch of agencies pointing fingers at each other with the responsibility ending up so diverse there would be no one person or agency to hold accountable. As investigations and reporting continue, that is in fact exactly what is happening.
