It’s time for us to start taking culture seriously instead of passing it off as mere fluff. What we’ve long considered unimportant and not intellectually serious is what’s forming the souls of those who have nothing else to form them.

Commentary on the making of a home and simple beauty of doing so

Escaping victimhood changes everything.

What most of feminism’s adherents have missed is that the first feminists asked the wrong question.

Could it be that elite women have finally spent their credibility? Could they have finally lost the sway they have held on to with well-manicured fingers for five decades?

The power of the new feminist fairytale is highly compelling, but it comes at a cost.

That pseudo-litany chanted by the 12 women in the upper room has been heard, felt, and suffered by all the world as the family has been destroyed, replaced by a population of noble narcissists.

With so many feminist advances, women should be getting happier instead of just more medicated.

It is no accident that fruitfulness is now missing on the spiritual level. With some exceptions, it has been all but abandoned by the culture and even the faithful.

We now live with a cool and edgy cocktail of Marxism and the occult. Women have been drinking it up ever since, with men either embracing it or left unsure how to counter it.
