“This book is the product of massive and original scholarship....the book requires an almost total rethinking of how we look on Mary today, this in the light of how medieval Christians understood her.”—Fr. James Schall

In the Middle Ages, when fire struck, as it often did, Christians took it as a sign to renew their faith and rebuild their church.

In case you were wondering: it's a lie. "White nationalism" is just a term used to frighten Americans who voted for Trump into thinking their concerns about our country are nefarious. That is exactly what the Other Side wants you to think.

John Daniel Davidson nails it: "The only alternative to paganism is Christianity, and paganism never went away. Anywhere Christianity recedes, paganism comes flooding back in. "It's a binary. You either recognize you are with God... or you're with the devil." Choose wisely.

There is no such thing as "white culture." The phrase is an oxymoron. "Culture" requires cultivation and worship, and "white," aka "WASP" is the antithesis of culture. This is why your children are all being seduced by the rainbow. You abandoned your cult for the vending machine.

Want to know why they killed the humanities, particularly the study of grammar, rhetoric, and logic? Because grammar teaches DEFINITION; rhetoric teaches PERSUASION; and logic teaches ARGUMENT. Tl;dr: They are tools for lie detecting. And TBTB don't want you to notice.

It is said that those who do not study history are doomed to repeat it. Studying history teaches that most people don’t study history. Empires gonna empire. The “bad guys” are always the previous empire, and the “good guys” stay “good” only as long as the propaganda holds.

“All religions” do NOT “teach the same thing.” Only Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. If some religions teach Truth, it is only because all Truth is Christ. The Accuser cannot create, only mimic, which means even when he lies, he must mimic Christ. #artwar
