Children of the state

Apparently there is no freedom of education whatsoever in Germany.

Familiar pattern

It is remarkable how certain phenomena start popping up in similar forms more or less at the same time in the most disparate corners of the world.

They are back

A few months after the gospel of Judas, here comes the tumb of Jesua. The only interesting question is: why would anybody think that this is interesting?

Confusion

The British government is divided about whether it is better to have two parents in a family.

Big problem

Giuliani's Catholic problem. The real problem is that his whole persona embodies the cultural meltdown of east-coast "ethnic" cultural Catholicism. Does faith have any relevance to real life?

Cultural poverty

It seems reasonable that if a society fails to educate the young, the result will be a new kind of
underclass. But the origin of the problem is not globalization; it is a neglect of humanity.

Work of mercy

On Catholic education in Jordan.

Ironic

England is experiencing massive Catholic immigration.

Survival of the fittest

Many people are not aware that the US had its own age of eugenics.

Self-hatred

Another depressing but brilliant Dalrymple column.

Illiberal

An interesting discussion regarding the growing intolerance of religion among certain "liberal" figures in the US.

"A left-liberal commitment to religious freedom is not something that can be counted
on any more"

That has been one of the most impressive and under-reported cultural shifts in this country over the last decade.

Hegemony

Given that the Atlantic Monthly is a serious magazine not given to right-wing conspiracy theories, it is remarkable they published this.

The road to slavery

It is undeniable that the New York Times stands out today as the media outlet where news are most thoroughly shaped by radical ideology.

Totalitarianism III

From Canada

traditional religious groups essentially must either abandon any religious beliefs that conflict with the ideologies of the state, notably that of radical feminism, or cease to make any claims to special financial considerations for their charitable, non-profit works for the community.

Delusional

Mark Davis on motherhood without fatherhood.

Fear of competition

George Will on school choice and its enemies.
