Pastors will confidently sermonize on politics in ways they’d never sermonize on plumbing, insurance, or finance.
Why does theological training apparently confer expertise on tax policy and foreign affairs?
The Very Respectable Evangelical Conservative:
“I DENOUNCE Trump’s rhetoric for the 256th time!”
Yeah, we get it guys. You’re so very holy. So righteous. Well done. 👍🏼
One of the greatest myths of modernity is being “set for life financially” before having children.
Having children isn’t an economic question, it’s a question of honors. And take it from someone who had his first child his senior year of college and second while only making $35k a year living in one of the most expensive cities in the world (And I’m doing great now with four beautiful children).
Once you’re a parent you’ll realize you never have enough money — no matter how much money you make — because you want to give your children everything. And the most important thing you can do is not prioritize simply making money, but sacrificing for them: physically, via time, etc.
This is the epitome of selfish, obnoxious leftist behavior. Making life difficult for innocent, hard-working Americans just trying to do their jobs. Absolutely disgusting.
Oh, give me a break. The reason the US Conference of Catholic Bishops is speaking out against Trump’s deportation of illegal immigrants is it directly cuts into their own funding.
The federal government was paying them hundreds of millions of dollars to facilitate housing etc. for immigrants.
This is the dying gasp of zombie corporate conservatism. This is a rage filled and organized attempt by men with broken egos to attack the MAGA movement indirectly based on a strawman and loose guilt by association plot.
It's not going to work.
People who’ve been in the trenches their whole life getting called Nazis by people who just joined the party a few years ago—par for the course these days.
They only gain traction by either serving the interests of bad actors or fooling people in the audience who don’t know the landscape while smearing those of us in the ring for years.
The sad thing is this makes it harder to actually reach and shape the coalition and the young for good.
I have a lot of hope for the future, regardless. But it will take new institutions, businesses, and approaches.
I'm sorry that the murdered man hurt your feelings in the five podcast quotes people are repeating over and over. This must be a very difficult time for you. Thoughts and prayers.

Charlie Kirk’s memorial was a complete indictment of what many of our pastors have been saying for years: politics is a poor medium for the gospel.
What it really comes down to is this: they’re afraid and ill-prepared.
Charlie’s memorial, among the many heartfelt presentations of the gospel, was a total indictment of the pastoral class and their incessant belief that politics is a poor medium for the gospel.
Here’s the issue… George Floyd dies, @milesmcpherson ups his book, writes his articles, does his interviews and podcasts.
@charliekirk11 dies, he posts a video, gets a little pushback, takes the video down, and releases a video on “why can’t we all come together and fight the devil.”
This is how the DEI machine chains the church. “Pastors” dance for the drug addict, and then apologize for the Christian.
