The election of Donald Trump and the rejection of Kamala Harris has given us time, but this is not the end of the war. Our culture is in a dire state, and our political sphere will always reflect that. Celebrate the victories, but don’t walk away.Από τον Sarah Cain

There’s a strange quiet in the run-up to the election, when we know that everyone has already chosen their side, even if they haven’t yet voted, and we’re just waiting for the tallies. Here are some thoughts to keep your sights properly aligned, regardless of the outcome.Από τον Sarah Cain

When Americans hear of blatant human rights abuses in other Western countries, they typically rejoice that such a thing cannot happen here, a notion usually based on the perceived strength of the U.S. Constitution. Yet, as our society loses the understanding of what rights are and from whence they came, that document will lose its meaning and its f…

There is a 2-mile stretch in Queens, NY, reminiscent of what one only expects to see in the third world, or perhaps deep in Bangkok. When police moved in to stop it, protests commenced. There is a tendency in the modern age to favor such vapid individualism that some will celebrate another person’s demise if only it can be alleged that he chose it.…

There’s been recent momentum around shaming people for getting high-paying physical jobs or for demanding better working conditions. There’s nothing ‘conservative’ or ‘traditional’ about wanting workers to suffer and get paid less. If we want to encourage families (and we should), this is one place to start.…

We become acclimated to a certain state of life, and we expect that it won’t change. Likewise with our civilization, we grow complacent to the reality that it too can crumble, as others have throughout history. Too many are experiencing this myopia now, to the detriment of all.Από τον Sarah Cain

The University of Pennsylvania’s course on abolishing the family succeeds in saying the quiet part out loud—outwardly expressing the fact that so many really do think that the family ought to be destroyed, for it is a hindrance to a different vision of society.Από τον Sarah Cain

There’s a common error that those in the modern “Progressive” movement are going forward and in some way advancing, but they’re actually just resurrecting old heresies and dead pagan practices. They’re not quite anti-history, they’re simply anti-Christian.Από τον Sarah Cain

In a society that doesn’t cherish the good, childhood innocence is discarded as a bygone notion. Parents are increasingly treating their children as peers, and something tragic is being lost in the process.Από τον Sarah Cain

The audacity of Joe Biden to talk about violence against women in a recent op-ed is unbelievable, considering the myriad of ways his administration made such violence more likely. An establishment that cannot even define a woman is hopeless to protect them.Από τον Sarah Cain

I had a terrific conversation yesterday with Fr. McTeigue, S.J. about the difficulties in dealing with our political arena when there is a widespread desire to improve society without reference to morality or its source, Christ. We dove into some topics that are not being talked about at the national level, to the detriment of us all.…

President Trump’s recent announcements in favor of IVF and against heartbeat bills (as “too short”) are alienating the people central to his base, and will undermine the goals that he wants to achieve.Από τον Sarah Cain

Going on a leisurely walk and would prefer a safer, prettier neighborhood? Bigotry. Want to drive surrounded by fields and flowers instead of concrete? Racism. So says your overlords.Από τον Sarah Cain

The recent arrest of the CEO of Telegram is easy for some to ignore, especially if they don’t use the app, but it’s just one piece of a much larger attempt to control speech and information on the Internet.Από τον Sarah Cain

In a 5-4 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court has temporarily struck down the Biden Administration’s attempt to effectively nullify Title IX by redefining sex according to “gender identity”.Από τον Sarah Cain

Now that the monkeypox hysteria is back, we can expect the news media to avoid the mistakes it made last time, instead trying to mainstream the illness and downplay the stories of gay “parents” infecting the children placed in their care (or purchased through surrogacy).Από τον Sarah Cain

Do the British understand what kind of culture they had, or what they want? Fighting for a mere absence isn’t enough to sustain for long. Modern Western nation-states are inherently weak to invasion because of their self-loathing posture.Από τον Sarah Cain

I went on The Catholic Current with Fr. McTeigue, S.J. to discuss nationalism, a two-tiered justice system, and the riots in England. What can Americans learn from both the causes and the effects?Από τον Sarah Cain

It’s easier to focus on battles afar because they demand less from us, precisely because they don’t affect us in a tangible way. Our communities—where we live—that’s another matter.Από τον Sarah Cain

The Olympics began this year with the mocking of Christ and quickly moved into watching men punch women in the face. The two are probably related.Από τον Sarah Cain

Careless Masses such as this are not a unique experience—sadly, it’s not even rare. It’s become a too-common reality wherein the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is reduced to a kumbaya session in which the consecration is treated as getting in the way of the “important” things that people want to do.

As a result of the closed communities that once made up our reality, people were forced to deal with one another, even when it was difficult. Nowadays, avoidance is much easier, and new options like “ghosting” allow us to hide from uncomfortable exchanges. But, is this better for us and society itself?…

The near assassination of President Trump was in many ways the culmination of an environment of near-constant lies, omissions, and manipulation by a media circus intent on preventing people from being informed. Don’t allow rhetoric against radicalization to be used to silence the only remaining honest sources of news.…

I went on The Catholic Current yesterday to talk about what the role should be between the Faith and the government. Should we aim for a full “separation,” as is common among atheists and Christians alike in the modern age? If not, what would an alternative look like? It was a really enjoyable conversation on one of my favorite topics: https://dire…

A giant inflatable IUD has been traveling the United States as a monument to contraception. It says so much about our culture that it could be promoted as a net good, or worse, as a “right”. Read the essay at Homefront Crusade.Από τον Sarah Cain
