Terrorism and the Catholic Death Penalty
Archbishop Phillip Hannan, former Archbishop of the New Orleans Archdiocese, roughly about 2 million people and 1.5 million Catholics made an important statement. He is very active despite his age; he was a frontline Chaplin in Europe during WWII.
He said the death penalty was justified in certain cases such as terrorism. I don’t think … More ...

More rightwing internet futurology
In the ’60s we had the “television generation,” the first generation to grow up watching TV. Today we have the “Internet generation.” The change in ways of finding out about the world ought to mean something, even though the effects are diffuse and so hard to interpret.

Book notes: Rene Guenon
I just finished reading Rene Guenon’s The Reign of Quantity & the Signs of the Times. It’s an interesting display, by the French Traditionalist metaphysician (and mathematician), of what can be done through systematic application of simple concepts.

The ever-more-glorious present
More signs of the times:
- The Canadians are closing down potluck suppers and bake sales. It seems they’re not regulated and bureaucratized enough (home kitchens aren’t inspected for compliance with commercial standards) and so are bad for public health.
- And in Michigan, a female middle school teacher who lives with another woman and their
