We have all heard the claims and warnings — some quite hysterical — that our use of fossil fuels is recklessly irresponsible and immoral. If we don’t make dramatic changes ASAP, the end of civilization will be upon us in mere decades, if not just a few years. But, this is nothing new. Since at […]
The other day I (re-)discovered a comment that a reader named “Ian” had left on a blogpost of mine a couple months ago, and I had forgotten all about it. The blogpost itself was from 2011, in which I presented the “just one question” argument for the pro-life position. For a number of reasons, I […]
In honor of this month marking the 10-year anniversary of the “A View from the Right” blog, I have decided to don my “psychic’s” hat and proclaim 10 predictions that will come true in the near future. In no particular order… 1) Trump will tweet something vague and people will choose to be offended, assuming […]
What do Benny Hinn, the Big Bang, and Joe Biden’s gun-grab have in common? Nothing, as far as I can tell, other than the prominence of the letter “B” and the fact that all three show up in this blogpost. Stick with me… Despite having gotten a good-sized post published on time last Sunday, the […]
“Its prophetic voice has remained surprisingly contemporary, both in its particular forecasts and in its general tone of semiserious alarm.” — author/editor/publisher Martin Green Something a little different for you today… In 1946, Aldous Huxley wrote a Forward to the new edition of his Brave New World (1932).

Following the “A View from the Right” year-end tradition, this year’s final post is a sampling of my favorite posts ranging from 2010 thru 2018.

“These aren’t people, these are animals, and we’re taking them out of the country at a level and a rate that’s never happened before.” — President Trump, in response to a California sheriff’s frustrations with state “sanctuary” law making it difficult to deal with MS-13 You’ve probably heard about this story already, but allow me […]
In what has become something of a year-end tradition here at “A View from the Right”, my final post for 2017 is a “Top 10” of links (with associated excerpts) to posts from preceding years. (The first two even go back to 2010 and 2011, respectively.) The idea is to give readers — especially newer […]
Liberal progressive. Atheist. Member of LGBT community. Pro-choice, feminist icon. Given the above attributes, you wouldn’t think there was much for a politically- and religiously-conservative individual like me to agree on with Camille Paglia (silent ‘g’), writer of Sexual Personae and Free Men, Free Women. For the most part, that’s true. But, Ms. Paglia is […]
It has been a busy weekend, and I wasn’t sure what I’d have time to share with you this week. I knew I wanted a political element to it, though. So, I looked back at several articles from the past few days and came up with a few items of interest to briefly comment on…. […]
