An article I read today announces that they have found a way to test for 3,500 genetic faults, raising concerns (the article says) about the ethical implications. The story veers headlong into a sustained bout of research that I am currently engaged in, research that began by wanting to answer the basic question “how does …
Jaffe Memo Part 10, Religious principles that secularists have and why it matters

I have now spilled much ink contending for the proposition that religion and politics must mix, using the Jaffe memo as my leaping off point. On the face of it, such a proposition would fly in the face of the notion of a ‘separation between church and state.’ However, it is important to note that…
Contrarian View: The Real Cause of Hyper-partisanship: Moderates, et. al.
| February 1, 2012 | Posted by Anthony under Blog, Christianity and Culture, General, Obama, politics, Secular Humanism |
I just posted an essay taking aim at American Catholics who voted in Obama (54%), supported Obamacare, and are now dumbfounded- shocked, I say- that Obama refuses to exempt Catholic organizations from requirements that infringe on their religious liberties. This essay should be read in conjunction with that one, because I refer to a much…
Jaffe Memo: Part 7, Religion, Politics, Scientism, Climate Change, and Secular Humanism
| January 1, 2012 | Posted by Anthony under abortion, Blog, eugenics, General, Global Warming, Obama, politics, science, scientism, Secular Humanism |
This series began as a reflection of the contents of the Jaffe Memo, a Planned Parenthood document from 1969 that discussed ideas for handling the ‘population’ crisis. This memo succinctly lays bear an agenda that has been in play since before the Civil War, and as I have demonstrated in previous parts of this series…
Proper Response to Genuine Social Injustice: Reflections on Obama’s Student Loan Proposals

Thomas Paine said: “is so exceedingly complex, that the nation may suffer for years together without being able to discover in which part the fault lies; some will say in one and some in another, and every political physician will advise a different medicine.”
Exactly. But it would appear that some modern ‘political physicians’ specifically wish to create systems that are ‘so exceedingly complex.’ Keep the patient sick seems to be the order of the day. Otherwise, he won’t need a doctor.
Watson, Racism, Evolution, Herr Professor, Reprise
| October 22, 2007 | Posted by Anthony under Blog, General |
Well, I suppose at some point this cycle of responses between Herr Professor and myself is going to have to end. I thought it kinda funny to basically be in a conversation with the gent, but of course in the abstract, where I pretend that my comments are to some ethereal group of readers of…
Dr. Watson, I presume?
| October 19, 2007 | Posted by Anthony under Blog, General |
Unlike Dr. Livingstone of lore, we can expect that if Dr. James Watson- of DNA and Francis Crick fame- were to go evangelizing in Africa today, he’d not fare very well. In an article from the Independent I read: “Dr Watson said he was “inherently gloomy about the prospect of Africa” because “all our social…
