1.16.2006    |    John Knox, call your office...
...you're sorely needed in your native Scotland. Found, via LGF, this little gem of a story at Scotsman.com. Seems that some members of the religion of pieces would like a Catholic school in Glasgow to become Islamic. From the story:
Osama Saeed, co-ordinator of the alliance of Glasgow's main mosques and Muslim organisations, said he could see no reason why the main faith of the [Catholic] school should not change.
No reason at all. Except, perhaps, because, as the leading Catholic cleric in Scotland, Keith Cardinal O'Brien (hmmm, sounds Irish, ye asks me...) is quoted as saying something along the lines of "Scotland's core faith was Christianity and that other faiths should recognise they were living in Scotland as a Christian country."

According to the Scotsman.com story, this statement of obvious fact (see, for example, this sampling of writings by and about the various "Scots worthies" of the Reformation) "sparked controversy." Hmm. Bet it did. Among RoPers and their natural allies, the useful idiots who are ashamed of their Christian backgrounds.

Scotland, for those who lack any sense of history, was, arguably, the engine of the Protestant Reformation. I don't know what proportion of 21st century Scots consider themselves to be Christian. But I'd wager it's a fairly large proportion, if the other choice was to be a muslim.

This may seem a trivial example, but it's indicative of the continuing war against the West. By which I mean a war to finally defeat us Jewish and Christian "infidels," and bring us under the yoke of a world-wide caliphate. Only this time with some serious sharia mojo.

Public stonings will take place at Giants Stadium, Sundays at noon, for people who've been caught attending any synagogue or Christian church...

about this blog

I was born, grew up, and went to school in the Bronx, New York -- on the wrong side of the tracks. Got the chance to go to college, so instead of joining the NYPD (the obvious career choice at that time and place), I became an engineer. Spent some years designing things that go boom (or things that take things that go boom to their destinations...), principally for our military. Also took an interesting career turn and for some years was in charge of counter-terrorism for my agency...so I learned something about guns. And when to use them.

I am a believer, in God. Christian. My opinion of most denominations is that they seem to be more concerned with the collection plate and devising intricate rules as to who is in and who is out.

My politics are a mix of conservative and libertarian, as in live and let live. With one exception, I favor small government, maximum personal freedom, coupled with personal responsibility and accountability for one's actions. I also know that there are, and have always been, things that are true, and things that are not. Two problems: Being smart enough to know which is which, and having the guts to act on it. I make no claims...

The exception to small government? I favor a robust national defense, against enemies foreign, and domestic. Or, as Teddy Roosevelt should have said, "speak softly and carry a whole bunch of armored divisions."

This blog will focus on politics, culture, religion, national security. That's pretty much the same territory as the New York Times. Just that I will never label my opinions as "news."
