@BradWilcoxIFS Excellent. How we define “love” maters so much. Dallas Willard: “Love is not desire—it is to will [and work for] the good of others.”

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@MGKlingenberg I wonderful professional application of “do unto others…”

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@McCormickProf CS Lewis’ “inner ring.”

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@usabmc The largest battle in American history when it was waged (yes, much bigger than all those more famous Civil War battles)! And the birth of modern American warfare.

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@nut_history Great. But throwing against front porch stairs is even better.

@RossBrian30643 @BeschlossDC Suggest you give this a read: https://t.co/i8tMLUfVDL

@p_emory Thank you for this, Paul. How does he handle the 1950s? Billy Graham, Eisenhower, etc?

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@IkeLibrary Ike knew how to hold a glove and a ball, and he knew his way around a diamond. I see at least two other presidents in that shot…

@MGKlingenberg Not that teaching at a service academy (or elsewhere) is a bad gig!

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@NoOneCaresEver0 @SteveStuWill Sadly, it’s much worse than mere overreach, incompetence, and negligence. The history communism is filled murder, genocide, and other horrors. You might give this a read…

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@BradWilcoxIFS Whew

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@FeserEdward @DrJBhattacharya Reread Eisenhower’s famous “military industrial complex” speech and note that we should remember it as the “military industrial and educational complex” speech; Ike was concerned about federal domination of science already back then!

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@RonDeSantis Just like the GI Bill

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@nut_history Then I want to hear more references to Stade Pershing, Paris’ oldest continuously used baseball field!

@andrewklavan Pretty sure I’ve never dined with anyone but sinners, even when I’ve dined alone.

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@DavidAFrench @thomaschattwill Love your enemies.

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@dtspesh4545 @thomaschattwill Certainly not geographic scale, but American casualties in the Civil War were significantly worse than in both world wars, as was the physical and social destruction.

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@dtspesh4545 @thomaschattwill Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses Grant would disagree

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@MGKlingenberg Man proposes, God disposes.

[Mark Grotelueschen @markethangrote]

@thomaschattwill And, it’s better to give than to receive. Truly.
