A while back I unfriended a Facebook friend for saying about the damages that businesses incurred during the Seattle and Portland riots, “Stores have insurance.” I’ve always felt bad about that. I don’t feel so bad today.
You wear a suit to an interview because you want to convey the message that you’re a pro. The way some people dress also conveys that they’re pros — the *other* kind of pros.
We pay people to *do*, not *be*, certain things. So long as people behave rightly toward all in their place of employment and get their jobs done, that should be what matters most.
The 1619 Project’s chapter and verse numbers have not yet been assigned, and its books are not so pithily named as “Psalms” or “Proverbs”. But it’s fairly clear from the titles of its first twelve selections that a new body of scripture is taking form right before our eyes.
Liberal pundits inform us on multiple cable channels that racism has deep roots in America’s bones. If the constant numbing barrage of accusations of racism hasn’t made you stop caring whether you’re racist, you’re wondering whether you’re racist.

“A 37-year-old sexualizing a 17-year-old? That’s GROSS!” But the average age of consent across all 50 states is 16-1/2. As a matter of law, the average American believes it’s perfectly okay for 17YOs to have sex with whomever they want. Why criticize the 37YO for *wanting* what you won’t outlaw him *doing*?
In 2003, more than a decade before it legalized gay marriage, the Supreme Court declared all anti-sodomy laws unconstitutional. The United States could no longer punish a same-sex couple for engaging in homosexual acts. And that, combined with Roe v. Wade, is when America ceased to be a Christian nation.
