No News is Good News Wednesday, January 21, 2026
Remember that time I attempted to locate and identify an objective news source? Neither do I. But there are some aggregate sites online or via smart phone apps which allow you to create your own collection of RSS news feeds, plus some which weigh news stories and their sources depending on which way they lean politically. If you recall, RSS is an acronym for an acronym within an acronym: RDF Site Summary (RDF is an acronym for Resource Description Framework); or just short for Really Simple Syndication, which is a web content syndication format to upload/push and download/pull data in readable text in summary or in full. Right. So, if you don't know how to build your own aggregator, then here are a few of them to consider:

Say No to Wonder Bread Monday, January 19, 2026
In what was to be his final speech on April 3, 1968, in Memphis, TN, Martin Luther King, Jr. advocated non-violent protest against unfair financial and commercial practices by boycotting certain products, refraining from shopping at various locations, and putting money into specific institutions where their treatment of employees and customers was fair and equitable. The impromptu speech was entitled "I've Been to the Mountaintop" and is available to read here and listen to here. He emphasized peaceful marches and going on strike in protest — not looting, pillaging, vandalism, harassment, interfering with justice, and storming into churches to demonstrate an incognizance of freedom. He said it with eloquence, composure, and poise in the face of adversity — not yelling incoherently in opposition to sound reason. He said it to inspire and motivate — not to incite or inflame. Nor was he pretentious, intentionally misleading, and altogether wrong. Just saying.




Elephants in Rooms Sunday, January 18, 2026
For all the hours I've spent researching online (i.e., Googling), I could've just watched YouTube videos of Elephants in Rooms with Ken LaCorte, also available at Buzzsprout and Spotify. Ken spent twenty years at Fox News and now hosts his own brand of journalism with short videos and podcasts in search of the truth, which may or may not favor any side of a political argument. What matters is understanding the issue, its history, and the facts surrounding it. In his own words, he "researches controversial topics and does his best to give them to you in a way that's as fair and evenhanded as he can." Here's an example of a topic that is well summarized, except that he failed to mention that the Jews are still God's chosen people, which is the number one reason everyone hates them.



Sermon of the Day Sunday, January 11, 2026
Heavy metal pop group Slipknot has a catchy little tune from yesteryear called "People = Shit" filled with toe-tapping, nihilistic fun for the whole misanthropic family with lyrics like, "People equal shit, people equal shit, people equal shit," and so on and so forth. For those with sensibilities to electric guitars and multiple drum sets, this version by Richard Cheese may be a bit more digestible. But you may be asking yourself, "So what? Who cares? Who is Richard Cheese?" Well, the Bible also has a snappy little ditty from antiquity called "People = Sheep" by the star of the Bible himself, gospel legend Jesus Christ (John 10:1-21). Now, whether you are in the camp that compares people to fertilizer or the camp where people are like dumb animals which make fertilizer, my point is... uuuuuuuuh, um, oh yeah, something about "cultural totalitarianism," in which people are led to ideological conformity through psychological and cultural means rather than overt government coercion, much like what is happening in our country today. First formulated in the 1960s by white negro existentialist Norman Mailer, cultural totalitarianism emphasizes social and psychological manipulation rather than outright state control, which inevitably leads to political authoritarianism. Through institutionalized education, mass media, consumerism, and orchestrated gaslighting, a society's history is redefined, its heritage is manipulated, and its values are forgotten if not shunned. From this, a herd mentality favoring socialized communalism has arisen to form a collective autocracy that opposes traditional independence at all costs. Intellectual thought has been sacrificed on the altar of progressive conformity where conservative principles were renounced by a new generation of neutered sheep under the unscrupulous and duplicitous guidance of liberal wolves. Logic and reason have been traded for an ideology of universal inclusiveness regardless of its suicidal impact. Like a parasite feeding upon its host, these anti-nationalist patriots thrive in a healthy environment of constitutional freedom wherein they are enabled to devour their own liberties by criticizing its success, ravaging its prosperity, and casting its pearls before swine. Simply put, the sheep and the wolves have laid down together and are rolling around in their own shit until they have become indistinguishable. Again, you may be asking yourself, "So what? Who cares? Does Richard Cheese do any other cover songs?" My point is... uuuuuuuuh, um, oh yeah, we are not in a sociopolitical battle for votes, rather, we are in a spiritual battle for the souls of lost sheep (Ephesians 6:10-18). Although you knew that already, didn't you? Shave and a haircut, two bits.

Indiana 38 Alabama 3 Thursday, January 1, 2026
I'd like to welcome in the new year with a prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of your Son Jesus, please help me to be relatively objective and only slightly offensive. I ask that you lead people here who need to be here and smite the online trolls who work tirelessly from their parent's basement to subvert the truth. Amen. Now, looking ahead, there is a lot of evil out there in the guise of progressive, democratic, socialist liberalism which will need to be addressed. The U.S. teeters on the precipice of godless Marxism with the Islamic sword poking us in the rear end. While Democrats lead the charge to utter annihilation, Republicans watch from the front row and quietly tsk tsk so as not to be labeled xenophobic. There is too much at stake to remain silent. Our republic is under attack from without and from within. Our values and morales which have made us strong have been tarred, feathered, and run out of town on a rail. Our institutions have failed us: education, justice, immigration, government oversight, welfare, journalism, CFP.* But let us not be hasty and incoherent. Rather, let our conservative tongues be united in recuperation and not retaliation. Let those who profit upon fear be hanged publicly from the gallows of prudence and let those who fear global climate change turn and fear the Lord, who will unleash His own brand of ecological destruction upon the Earth in due time (Revelation 6-9). The end is nigh and, truth be told, things will get worse before they get better. However, they will only get better if we repent, which for most of us isn't written in prophecy.
