The soul longs for the synthesis of the evangelical and the analytic. They exist instead in psychological tension. Sometimes paradox is synthesis unborn. Christ is love and logic, the ground and personification of both. These are, at bottom, an identity. Thus, hope. Love is…
The left is going to pretend none to the woke craziness ever happened, and they will do it by demanding you provide on-the-spot citations for every memory of the early 2020's that you have, and then calling you a liar if you don't large numbers of citations committed to memory.
The dean of the university asks the head of the physics department: "Why do you need such expensive equipment? Why can't you take a cue from the math department? All they ask for is pencils, paper, and wastebaskets! Or the philosophy department? All they ask for is pencils and…
I think this is at root the same phenomenon underlying what’s happening in the story about test scores that’s been going around, which is that it’s ultimately a refusal to accept the existence of irreversible consequences. In the one case, you committed the crime, and you get…
Psychiatrist Sally Satel explains why she believes the execution of the schizophrenic man who stabbed a Ukrainian refugee on a train would be an act of cruelty, not justice.
I don't think the late 20C, to say nothing of the early 20C, was a problem-free time. but i think the fundamentals of America and the broader Western project were on a firmer footing, while we've been collapsing quickly in 21C. I also think we were close to some kind of…
in reality, so i guess im asking your perspective. or just putting forth, I don't see this century as significantly worse than the last one. dooming involves a lot of fantasizing. although I agree that we're not "going back" to the world your parents lived their early lives in
Personally I think it's great we can now automate slop music
This AI “singer” has 2 million monthly listeners on Spotify. I hate this so much. I cannot describe how much I hate it. If I could commit a genocide against AI, I would. AI “art” is the death of the soul. Pure dystopian hell. Did I mention that I hate this?
Obstacle: "I sin time and again, and therefore I do not dare to come again unto God—it would be as if I were mocking with God." Answer: When you [first] prayed in a most acceptable manner [for forgiveness] and when God [first] heard and answered your prayer, God saw all your…

I spent years working these kinds of jobs. I detest valorizing them above skilled white collar professions. 99% of the men who work those jobs wish they could be doing anything else and spend all day complaining about their lives. Sure you can work them cheerfully with the right…
men need to be working real jobs again. muscle and a shovel style jobs. testosterone levels would rise and men would feel like they had a purpose again. men yearn for the oil rigs and coal mines not the excel spreadsheets and 9-5 grind. we've neutered them, one business day at a…
About "vibe shift" stuff. Something is definitely happening. Traditionalism, conservatism, and high churchism are *cool* in ways they were not 10 or even 5 years ago. 2025 is a fascinating time to be alive. There are both bright opportunities and major worries. One the one hand,…
Thucydides: “Civil war ran through the cities… And they reversed the usual way of using words to evaluate what they did. Ill-considered boldness was counted as loyal manliness; prudent hesitation was held to be cowardice in disguise, and moderation merely the cloak of an unmanly…
Read a Saudi Arabian novel a while back. It hit me how over there, and maybe among all Arabs, routine phrases are full of praises of God. We say “How ya doin?”, they say stuff like “The sun, the moon, the stars, and now you! God gives me so many gifts. Are you as lucky as me?”
If I ever publicly refuse the oversight of my appointed shepherds, and refer to pastoral evaluation of my public persona as a "struggle session," you will know something has gone terribly wrong with my soul
As I already told him. If he wants me to debate him, the only condition I asked for is that we bring his priest on and I get to show him all of Paul's sinful promotion of open racists and heretics, and then we debate whether his priest will find any of it problematic.
My most bespoke parenting opinion is that big screens are perfectly fine for kids but small screens are bad. We have a projector in our living room with a huge 6'x10' screen. When the kids watch things on it, they are in motion. They roll around giggling; they climb on the couch,…
This attitude is exactly the difference between people the Ivies want (at their best, anyway) and those who whine about being rejected because "they deserved to get in." Humility, humility, humility! It's one of the most foundational and beneficial virtues.
An admissions officer at Penn told me once that they could replace all of the admitted students in a class with the best ones who were rejected, and their stats would look nearly identical. The reality is that the majority of students applying to elite schools all have perfect…
extremely distressing part of getting older is seeing relatives of my generation failing to become adults and realizing with dawning horror that things that should have been a phase are just where they stopped developing and that's who they'll always be
This is a yearly reminder that "April Fools' Day tweets" are lies that will inevitably mislead and confuse many other people who don't catch the joke, for zero benefit. Not godly behavior.
If someone brags about "thinking in categories" I immediately stop taking them seriously.
She demanded we walk slower because her plant was “wiggling a lot” and she didn’t want it to get too tired before we got home. How did I make it 32 years without her in my life?
If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.
