Leftist Jews need to start appreciating Christians

Posted on November 30, 2023November 30, 2023 by Bookworm

Up until the Enlightenment, Christians, on the whole, did not treat Jews well. This left Jews suspicious and fearful of Christians. They need to get over it. For almost two millennia, Jews in Christian domains did not fare well. This didn’t come from the Bible. It came from the European

It’s time for my version of a Christmas post

Posted on December 24, 2020 by Bookworm

2020’s agonies make it more important than ever that I count my blessings — and sharing America’s Christmas spirit is a very big blessing. Every year, I post my favorite Christmas song, which is Josh Groban’s live version of O Holy Night. This has been a strange year but I’m

AG Barr on Radical Democrats, the Disingenuous Media, Systemic Racism, Equal Rule of Law, and More

Posted on August 9, 2020August 10, 2020 by Wolf Howling

Mark Levin conducted a wide-ranging interview of AG Bill Barr that aired Sunday night. Barr is perceptive, honest, plain-spoken, and uncowed by the progressive morass he is battling. The interview, embedded below, is enlightening. Part I — America has fundamentally changed in the past 30 years as radicals have withdrawn

Happy Easter

Posted on April 11, 2020April 11, 2020 by Bookworm

Happy Easter! To all my friends who celebrate Easter, I wish you a joyous day. This will definitely go down as the most peculiar American Easter in the last 100 years. I am certain, though, that you will discover, as we Jews did with our very peculiar 2020 Passover seders,

I really like American Christians

Posted on June 11, 2019June 11, 2019 by Bookworm

I was reminded today, as I am often reminded, that American Christians are extremely nice, generous people, and that I am lucky to live in America with them. I stopped by my local Dairy Queen today for a treat: a chocolate dipped cone. Yum. If I didn’t have some common

The sex scandals in the Catholic Church reflect the Left’s long march

For my first post at The American Spectator, I write about the communism driving the Catholic Church’s current travails.

Calling Christ a drag queen pedophile shows what’s wrong with academia

Posted on April 1, 2018April 2, 2018 by Bookworm

An academic article calling Christ a queer, pedophile drag queen reveals that modern academics know nothing about anything — and then teach it to our kids. I finally got around to reading the article about Holy Cross College professor Tat-Siong Benny Liew, who has some interesting ideas about Jesus Christ (whose resurrection

Middle Eastern Christians: To understand their plight, look to the past

Posted on March 19, 2018March 19, 2018 by Bookworm

Muslims have recently escalated killing Middle Eastern Christians. Robert Spencer explains the deep historic roots behind this new slaughter. One of the family jokes is that, when the kids used to ask me for help with their history homework, no matter the historic subject at issue, I’d always say either “You

Does BYU’s online high school gov class promote an antisemitic canard? UPDATED

Posted on February 23, 2018February 24, 2018 by Bookworm

Am I overreacting to think that BYU’s online government class slipped in a gratuitous, classically antisemitic trope about Jews controlling foreign policy? I’ve written before about BYU’s online high school government class and, frankly, didn’t have much nice to say about it. It’s poorly written, poorly structured, and poorly informed.

From the People’s Cube, NYT’s coverage at Christ’s birth

I have nothing to add here beyond telling you to click on the image to enlarge so as to get the full glory of a Leftist view of Christ’s birth. Hat tip: Wolf Howling

May Christmas bring you everything that you are wishing for

Posted on December 24, 2017December 24, 2017 by Bookworm

Last year was a better year than I could have dreamed and I hope that, for Christmas, we get the promise of an even better New Year. I was delighted with Wolf Howling’s caroling contribution to Christmas. I know you’ll enjoy all of the videos he posted, but I especially

Trump Kills The HHS Mandate: CNN Preaches To Christians; The NYT Preaches To Progs

Posted on October 15, 2017October 15, 2017 by Wolf Howling

Whether it’s CNN telling Christians or the NYT telling progs, the message is the same: Christians have to get with the program; socialism trumps principles. CNN is at the vanguard of a progressive jihad to drive Christian voters away from Trump. CNN’s two openly gay (one married) hosts, Don Lemon and

Look to the pagans to understand why Western Civilization matters

Posted on October 11, 2017October 11, 2017 by Bookworm

Without Western Civilization, we veer dangerously close to reverting to our pagan roots — roots watered with the blood of human sacrifice. For millennia, Jews have forbidden human sacrifice. Although there are myriad more sophisticated interpretations examining the Biblical narrative about the Binding of Isaac, the most basic interpretation was
