A View from the Right Science, POLITICS, & Religion

“I just don’t think that we really need to make a projection when it’s such a moving target that you could so easily be wrong and mislead people.” — Dr. Anthony Fauci in New York Magazine‘s Intelligencer Today, I present to you three articles I thought were pretty good reads regarding the COVID-19 situation. First […]

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” — John Adams, 2nd President of the United States Over the past several weeks, I have shared portions of Dennis Prager’s Still the Best Hope — twice from the section on Leftism and once […]

“Whether you are a person of faith or of none, you cannot escape the fact that the last six days of this man’s life, and his death, changed the world.” — Hugh Bonneville, actor A couple years ago, I came across this article about actor Hugh Bonneville (“Downton Abbey”) and the documentary he had completed: […]

“Only science gives reliable truth.” — believers in scientism Have you ever heard of a self-refuting view or idea? This is an idea that, when examined, actually defeats itself. It commits suicide. There are different types of self-refuting ideas, and some are easier to recognize than others. For example, if someone says, “All English sentences […]

Honestly, I’ve never been a big fan of practical jokes — at least, not when played on me. Don’t like the attention or appreciate the embarrassment, and it’s all the worse when things get damaged or need to be cleaned afterward. But, some people enjoy them. With April Fools’ Day (April 1) fast approaching, I […]

From Dennis Prager’s Still the Best Hope: Why the World Needs American Values to Triumph, this week’s post is from the section on Islam and Islamism. Prager examines the Palestinian refugee problem and its real function within the Muslim obsession with destroying the Jewish State of Israel. You may be surprised… “Much of the Islamic […]

“People commit crimes all the time without knowing it. It’s impossible to know what sort of behavior is criminal.” — Rafael Mangual, Manhattan Institute (a conservative think tank) Let’s play a game. Have you ever… walked a dog on a leash longer than 6 feet while on federal property? lied to your boss over the […]

Have you ever heard of Fundacja En Arche (i.e., the Origins Foundation) in Poland? They are much like a young Discovery Institute, in that they deal with Darwinism, intelligent design, and the relevant scientific and philosophical issues. A lot of what they do is translate ID-friendly books (e.g., Darwin on Trial, Darwin’s Black Box, Signature […]

This week I offer another citation about Leftism from Dennis Prager’s Still the Best Hope: Why the World Needs American Values to Triumph, in which he addresses a particular apparent inconsistency between the values and actions of those on the Left. Good questions, helpful answers. “Another revealing example of the moral confusion of the Left […]

“Thirty days hath September, April, June and November. All the rest have thirty-one, except February alone, which has twenty-eight rain or shine, except for leap year, 29.” — traditional mnemonic verse (though, there are variations) Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you probably realize that 2020 is a “leap year”, since February will have […]
