The Conservative Revolution

The American revolution may have been the only conservative revolution in the history of mankind. The rebels did not want something new, they wanted something old — their rights as British citizens. The implications of what they wanted and what they did shaped our founding and explain those curious provisions of the constitution like prohibitions on quarter soldiers and a right to keep and bear arms.

There's No Such Things as a Big Government Conservative

During the George W. Bush era, many conservative pundits began openly touting "Big Government Conservatism." There is, in fact, no such thing. But why did they do it and what can we learn from it?

Journalism in a Dot Com Era

A focus on the way journalism had evolved with the rise of the Drudge Report, blogs, the Huffington Post, Politico, and the media's desire to be first, not necessarily right.

The Electoral Outlook

A focus on the road ahead for Democrats and Republicans — what key races should be watched, where will Democrats do well, and can Republicans find their footing again.

Tea Party vs. the Establishment

Tea party activists swept the GOP back into the House of Representatives and many state and local offices around the country in 2010. They woke up the next day and found out many of those they elected turned out to be openly scornful of the tea party. Likewise, many party leaders look down their nose at the tea party. Understanding history reveals why.

Misplaced Faith

Evangelicals tend to get involved in politics to affect change in the world, but find that politics changes them

You Shall Be as Gods: Pagans, Progressives, and the Rise of the Woke Gnostic Left

by Erick Erickson

Our country doesn’t have a partisan problem, a political problem, a social problem, or an economic problem. We have a spiritual problem.

What in the world is happening? To many Americans, it feels as if reality itself has been turned upside down. Speaking truth, or even suggesting such a thing exists, is labeled as oppression and cause for social banning. Judeo-Christian values once taken for granted are not only routinely ignored, but openly attacked. Why is America being fundamentally transformed before our eyes?

As Christianity has been pushed aside, the Progressive Left has developed a new pagan religion complete with all the trappings: creeds, confessionals, sacraments and mantras, liturgies, shunnings, sacred books, redemptive rituals, and priests and priestesses. But the radical roots of the new secular religion are ancient. We’ve seen it all before. In You Shall Be as Gods, Erick Erickson traces the religion’s roots from Paganism and Gnosticism through the Age of Enlightenment all the way into the Postmodernism of the 21st century. At the heart of the ancient religion is a self-centered culture.

The Christian church today has been weakened by compromising with the neo-pagan religion, leaving the faithful confused and ill-prepared to counter the claims of society’s present-day doctrine. Yet there remains a significant remnant, perhaps even a silent majority, in America that refuses to bow to the rising belief system.

Just as in Rome and countless societies throughout history, the religions present two opposing stories of reality which necessitates conflict. In an era where the “Christian thing” to do seems to be to go along and get along, Erickson makes clear that the two cultures cannot peacefully coexist and calls the reader to speak the truth in love.
