About The Father’s Business

Defining Obedience… “Man is not, however much he may talk of autonomy, a self sufficient creature. He is necessarily dependent upon others. Coupled with this necessary dependency is the fact that he is created in the image of God. Man is a purposive creature: he is goal directed. God created him to be his vicegerent over the earth, to exercise dominion and to develop the meaning and scope of God’s reign and Kingdom. Man’s life thus is colored in all things by a purpose, meaning, or goal.” Dr. R. J. Rushdoony... Read article

Philippine Extra-Judicial Killings Continue

Obama’s Response In Question… On March 23rd, Sabina Ariola, the leader of “Citizens for Excellence, Progress, Peace towards the Country’s Great Future,” was gunned down. She is the 992nd civilian to be killed in the ongoing spree of extra-judicial killings that have been occurring since 2001, when Gloria Macapagal Arroyo assumed the presidency. Another particularly despicable killing that occurred in March was that of Rebelyn Pitao, a 20 year old teacher in Davao, southern Philippines. She was... Read article

Next Added 100 Million Americans: Plague of Plastics

Chapter Seventeen… “And Man created the plastic bag and the tin and aluminum can and the cellophane wrapper and the paper plate, and this was good because Man could then take his automobile and buy all his food in one place and He could save that which was good to eat in the refrigerator and throw away that which had no further use. And soon the earth was covered with plastic bags and aluminum cans and paper plates and disposable bottles and there was nowhere to sit down or walk, and Man shook his head and cried:... Read article

It’s Time for a Greed Czar

With the recent passage of the “TARP bonus” bill, it’s obvious that our politicians are finally serious about tackling the problem of greed.  It’s about time, too.  We’ve long had “hate crime” laws, so one had to wonder when the next deadly sin would make it on the legislative agenda. This bill targets people at certain companies – most visibly the much-maligned AIG – taxing any bonus pay pushing one’s income over the $250,000 threshold to the tune of 90... Read article

Video: Popular Blogger Summoned to White House

WorldNetDaily is reporting that Bob Basso, who has released videos urging Americans take their government back from corrupt politicians, was reportedly “summoned to the White House by President Obama to discuss the subject matter of the short films.” featured stories Popular Anti Stimulus Video Blogger Summoned to White House Obama featured stories Popular Anti Stimulus Video Blogger Summoned to White House In the video below, Basso, who portrays Thomas Paine, author of the “Common Sense” pamphlet that made the case... Read article

From Populist Rage to Revolution

Americans clearly are capable of being outraged.  Missing, however, is a sustained, vibrant demand for deep reforms of our political and government system.  You hear a lot about populist rage these days, especially connected to the AIG bonus debacle.  But populist rage as a reflection of class conflict and anger about our economic meltdown does not necessarily make a political revolution.  The saddest thing about Obama winning the presidency was that his change message drained what might have been sufficient national... Read article

The Worsening U.S. Failure

At the recent climate change conference in Copenhagen, attended by more than 2,500 researchers and economists, studies have been presented portraying a world in which there is a strong possibility that fifty percent of the Earth’s surface could become uninhabitable in the not too distant future, a slight shift upward in temperature could let loose a carbon “time bomb” from arctic soils, crop yield losses could be thirty percent or more on several continents by 2030, seventy-five percent of the Amazon forest... Read article

Missouri Scraps MIAC Report

Well, there is still hope for liberty after all! After multiple thousands of phone calls, emails, faxes, and other communications from outraged citizens, the State of Missouri has rescinded its controversial “militia” report. This proves the point I made in this column recently that the most effective way to fight an ever-encroaching federal leviathan is to focus on our individual states. Let me review the events of the last few weeks so as to help readers familiarize themselves with this historic–and... Read article

Fisk Misses the Target

The great British journalist Robert Fisk wrote a few days ago: Why Avigdor Lieberman is the worst thing that could happen to the Middle East. Fisk is usually wonderful and knowledgeable, but now he was mistaken. He’s got carried away by Lieberman-bashing, this popular pastime of Left Zionists. Indeed you may condemn Lieberman and still be admitted by every Jewish and Zionist organisation – precisely because Lieberman (and other hardcore Jewish nationalists) is of little importance. There is a worse thing... Read article

How to Use Your Children to Annoy a Liberal

Since liberals place a premium on tolerance, the loving and charitable thing to do is help them develop it.  Note here that, unbeknownst to many, tolerance involves enduring something considered to be a negative.  We don’t tolerate a fine meal or a nice car, for instance; we relish such things.  But we might have to tolerate bad weather, a cold or Nancy Pelosi.  Now, since liberals actually perceive a great many positive things to be negative, placing them in situations wherein they may cultivate tolerance... Read article

Bend Over and Say, “Uncle Sam”

Geithner Update… Timothy Geithner refuses to take underwater banks into receivership and resolve them, but has no problem transforming the FDIC into a hedge fund. Go figure? Here’s what everyone needs to know: The US government (you) will provide up to 94 percent of the financing (low interest, of course) for dodgy mortgage-backed assets that no one in their right mind would ever buy so that wealthy and politically-connected banksters can scrub up to $1 trillion of red ink from their balance sheets. Ugh! The... Read article

The Twin Crises

Immigration & Infrastructure… “In August 2008 the U S Census Bureau projected that U.S. population will be 433 million by 2050— an increase of 135 million, or 44 percent, from current levels,“ Rubenstein said. “Eighty-two percent of the increase will be from new immigrants and their U.S. born children. The brutal reality is that no conceivable infrastructure program can keep pace with that kind of population growth.” On Sunday at church, my preacher said, “If you want to be happy for a moment, eat... Read article

Natural Adversaries

In any debate regarding the current economic crisis, the antagonistic relationship between workers and investors seems most conspicuously missing from discussion. Everyone seems to have a solution for fixing the economy, and every theory is a little bit different. The best ones suggest placing purchasing power directly into the hands of consumers, which actually makes the most sense in terms of “fixing” the economy. But even this approach naively assumes a prevailing desire to actually “fix” or stabilize... Read article

Israel’s Dilemma

How to calculate the risks of getting un-Chosen… Israel’s current hard-liner government is now being forced to face a very real dilemma. At what point does its behavior become so outrageous that it risks pissing God off? How far can the current government in Tel Aviv go before the Chosen People of Israel start running the risk getting un-Chosen? If the Promised Land keeps getting trashed with too many high-rise condos soaking up all the natural resources in Eden, too much use of questionable eminent... Read article

Judgment Day for Geithner

Whether he deserves it or not, Timothy Geithner has become the poster boy for everything that’s wrong with the government’s scatterbrain financial rescue plan. Geithner was in the wheelhouse at the New York Fed when Bear Stearns and Lehman Bros defaulted, and he played a central role in the $165 million AIG bonus scandal which ignited a populist firestorm across the country. Now everything even remotely connected to the bank bailout has become a source of fist-clinching rage. The mood of the country has darkened... Read article
