…d a pedophilia ring involving members of the Democratic Party, including Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager, John Podesta.

The World Turned Upside Down would prove so enduring that it has been an English folk ballad for more than 350 years. The song’s opening verse, “Holy-dayes are despis’d, new fashions are devis’d. /Old Christmas is kicked out of Town” remains pertinent. It seems that a suppose…

Love the Scholarship But Hate the Scholar’s Sin?: ‘Himpathy’ for an Academic Pedophile Enables a Culture of Abuse

By Stephen Young

…ch as sympathy, empathy, trust in one’s friends … their naïve deployment will tend to further privilege those already unjustly privileged over others.” Himpathy is powerful.

So when, to use one of Manne’s examples, Brock Turner was caught raping a woman, his father pleade…

…ruitment video the other day, unsettling even by their standards, issuing all but a call to arms to battle protestors, liberals, and anyone else standing in the way of the Trump agenda.

By Peter Montgomery

Human Rights Watch released a report calling for an end to cruel, degrading, and useless anal exams that supposedly “test” for homosexuality: Some countries where authorities have used forced anal exams in the past, most notably Lebanon, have taken steps to end the practice. But others, including Egypt and Tunisia, rely on them with great frequency in prosecutions for consensual same-sex conduct. The use of forced anal examinations appears to b…

By Chrissy Stroop

…alots who consider this fauxgressive bait-and-switch ad campaign that actually benefits their cause to be an unacceptable compromise of the gospel. I’ve been among those digging into the campaign’s funding and goals since it was first introduced about a year ago, and the evidence is unequivocal that “He Gets Us” is designed to pull people into the kinds of churches that will teach them to conflate their faith with voting Republican and going “cuck…
