Capitalism, the laissez-faire kind, not the crippled-market/fascist/socialist hybrid that masquerades as capitalism, does have a tool, and this is the tool that allows the planet to support more than 6 billion souls. The economy of utility from the division of labor leads to productivity increases. Thus man’s knowledge increases over time and can be used to drive productivity up and prices down. This and only this provides the abundance of the modern world. Read more at LewRockwell.com.

"His reaction was less that of a scientist to questions than of an archbishop to heresy."

Evolution is a religion, evidenced by its adherents foaming at the mouth at any opposition. I think that's the jist of this article.

Thank God for year-end vacation time. Or thank the boss. Whatever! I'm just thankful.

It's the end of 2009 and the beginning of 2010. Did this year just race by anybody else? This was the quickest year on record!

What's to come in your 2010?

I would love to gradually leave the Internet. Not because it isn't fun or pleasurable, but because it is insignificant. It is inefficient. There's a job to do and, while it (the Internet) makes that job, at times, easier, it mostly just distracts. Can I do without? (More...)

A formidable coalition of 150 Catholic, Orthodox, and evangelical leaders is calling on Christians in a new manifesto to reject secular authority — and even engage in civil disobedience — if laws force them to accept abortion, same-sex marriage, and other ideas that betray their religious beliefs.

There will be something that unites Catholic and Protestant faiths, and it will undoubtedly be the perceived immoralities of the secular population. On top of that, these perceived immoralities will be blamed for the significant problems we are facing today as a country.

The government faces a payment shock similar to those that sent legions of overstretched homeowners into default on their mortgages.

The potential for rapidly escalating interest payouts is just one of the wrenching challenges facing the United States after decades of living beyond its means.

So the U.S. is in a position to default on their debt. What happens when billions, even trillions, of dollars don't get paid back to countries around the world from whom we've borrowed to fund our idiotic economic recovery programs, unnecessary global military conflicts, unsustainable entitlement programs, and other wasteful programs such as the war on drugs?

Steph turned 17 today. She's not only 17, she's also pretty awesome!

Happy birthday Steph.

The Oath Keepers pledge to do their best to keep the US of A from becoming a dictatorship. Are their services needed?

What's interesting is how everybody who disagrees with Obama is "racist" or "a terrorist." Why is that? How clever it was for the elite to install a black man in the White House and then deflect criticism with accusations of "racism" or "disharmony." They think they can get away with anything, don't they?

Everything you have been taught about natural selection is wrong.

Police endorse spying on neighbors - Jesus warned about this.

The Los Angeles police commander Joan McNamara said, "We're not asking people to spy on their neighbors," in an attempt to soothe privacy fears. However, this is the first step in a citizen spying network that will work against end-times Christians in the years to come.

Americans who volunteer for military service effectively write a blank check, payable to the United States of America for an amount "up to and including my life." The United States, in turn, promises to spend these checks responsibly. That bargain implicitly includes a promise by the United States to protect them and to seek retribution against anyone who harms them. In the case of USS Liberty, the United States has failed to keep its end of the bargain.

Read about the USS Liberty incident here, here, here, and here.

I'm on the run from the cops. They tried to arrest me for a crime I didn't commit. I'll be posting here less frequently than before, and you can keep up with me here. I gotta go. Somebody's knockin' at my door.

Did you know Joshua turned 18?! Wow. That's old.

He'll be either getting a job or enlisting in the Navy or Air Force.

Here are some pictures of him through the ages.

Send him a birthday wish!

A look into the incredible mindset of today's liberal.

Charlie Sheen calls on President Obama to open a legitimate investigation of 9/11.

I'm not an atheist, and I don't think I can call myself a pantheist. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many languages. The child knows someone must have written those books. It does not know how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. The child dimly suspects a mysterious order in the arrangement of the books but doesn't know what it is. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of even the most intelligent human being toward God. We see the universe marvelously arranged and obeying certain laws but only dimly understand these laws. Our limited minds grasp the mysterious force that moves the constellations.
