But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared...

But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. -Titus 3:4-7

The heresy of putting the baby Jesus into a people-smugglers’ dinghy One of the most remarkable failures of this theology, embraced even by respected intellectuals, has been the inability to distinguish between different kinds of refugee experience.
   The Holy Family consisted of three people, fleeing imminent death for a limited period, who returned home once the danger had passed. They did not seek economic advantage, permanent settlement, demographic transformation or cultural domination. They entered quietly and they left quietly.
   There is almost nothing in common between that pattern and what is occurring in the West today.

UK: 86-Year-Old Targeted by Cops for… Spitting Out a Leaf  The information has only come to light in the past few years, with Mr. Marsh recalling to the BBC how he was resting when a gust of wind blew a reed into his mouth. After spitting it out, he was approached by two police officers who claimed they had seen him spit on the ground. Despite explaining the situation, Mr. Marsh was issued a £250 fine, which was later reduced to £150 upon appeal. He paid the reduced amount.

15 dead in shooting at Bondi Beach Hanukkah event, including children At least 15 people were killed, police said, with 27 other people still hospitalized, including a dozen who are in critical condition, after a shooting at Australia’s famous Bondi Beach in Sydney.

The Bondi barbarians...This anti-Semitic terror attack in Australia must be the final straw If Jews aren’t safe in Bondi or Manchester, if they cannot attend a Hanukkah celebration or synagogue on Yom Kippur without their mind beginning to turn to the worst, then we can no longer claim to be enlightened nations. Leaders have looked the other way as a sulphurous Jew hatred has bubbled up from below, welcomed in through porous borders, fomented by multiculturalism, propagandised in the streets by Islamists, and enthusiastically embraced by woke useful idiots.


Islamic supremacism is on the march, its triumphalism augmented by its alliance with Western progressives who denounce any reminders of Christianity, including celebrations of Christmas.
   Burn a Koran or post a meme mocking Islam, and go to prison for a hate crime.  Burn a Bible, and hey, you’re bravely speaking truth to power.  Citizens of the West all know the drill by now.

More Than 9,500 Commercial Truckers Taken off U.S. Roads Nationwide Because They Couldn't Speak English  The “alarming trend of illegal aliens who are unlawfully present in the United States operating commercial vehicles … raises significant safety concerns,” Acting Buffalo Sector Chief Border Patrol Agent James D’Amato said. “Drivers who are not fluent or with little to no ability to speak or read English pose a serious risk on our roadways, especially when operating large vehicles that require a high level of skill and understanding of traffic laws. The ongoing major accidents nationwide involving such drivers highlight the critical need for enforcement and vigilance to protect public safety.”

God’s wisdom is so much better than AI responses; his love is so much deeper and wider than the “likes” of social media; his presence is sweeter than any screen-based interactio

The AI Illusion: How Technocracy Threatens Human Freedom  AI is increasingly positioned not as a tool but as an administrative authority over knowledge, economy, and behavior. The illusion is that it knows. The danger is that society begins to confuse calculation with wisdom.
   Without independent judgment, technology perfects systems of control rather than systems of liberty. A civilization that delegates its decisions to machines does not become enlightened—it becomes efficiently managed.
   The future will not be determined by better algorithms, but by whether human beings retain the courage to exercise judgment in the face of automated authority.
