Sultan Knish: How America’s Polygamy Ban Blocked Muslim Immigration

Unlike modern presidents, Roosevelt did not view Islam as a force for good. Instead he had described Muslims as “enemies of civilization”, writing that, “The civilization of Europe, America and Australia exists today at all only because of the victories of civilized man over the enemies of civilization”, praising Charles Martel and John Sobieski for throwing back the “Moslem conquerors” whose depredations had caused Christianity to have “practically vanished from the two continents.”

The Constitution establishes liberty. Freedom. It doesn’t establish liberal ‘fairness’. The American Revolution was about liberty and freedom. Contrast that with the French Revolution, which was about equality and fairness.

The French Revolution, equality and fairness required so many heads of state that they invented the guillotine to keep up with the demand.

The WaPo’s lovely palpitations about new EPA head Scott Pruitt

The funniest thing about the article is the authors’ (yes, “authors,” as it took two of them to write this steaming pile of ignorance) . . . the authors’ certitude that consensus is the same as science. In WaPo land, there is no solar activity; there are no pauses in the warming; there aren’t any computer simulations that were decisively wrong; there are no laughable predictions about 20 foot increases in the ocean’s level or double-digit temperature increases; and, most significantly, there is no record of fraud.

Don’t replace it

Healthcare and healthcare insurance is not a right, or a government responsibility under Article One, Section Eight of the Constitution. Repeal it, don’t replace it. Honor the oath you took to uphold the Constitution.

School administrators don’t have much tolerance for student’s ‘straight pride’ posters | EAGnews.org

“Celebrate being straight at JHS by not annoying the heck out of everyone about your sexual orientation!” read the flyers, posted in the school’s hallways after classes last Thursday. “It’s easy! Just come to the JHS, then you go about your day without telling everyone about how ‘different’ and ‘special’ you are!”

If it is acceptable for Americans to say “no” to Muslims on the grounds that we don’t want any more Muslims, then we’re back to discussing the limits, if there are any, to the freedom of association. Put another way, if we don’t need a reason to say “no” to Mohamed, then we don’t need to ask for permission in order to say “no” to diversity.

I would like to discuss the topic of ‘gender.’

Gender is a term used in linguistics.

“In linguistics, grammatical gender is a specific form of noun-class system in which the division of noun classes forms an agreement system with another aspect of the language, such as adjectives, articles, pronouns, or verbs. This system is used in approximately one quarter of the world’s languages. In these languages, most or all nouns inherently carry one value of the grammatical category called gender;[2] the values present in a given language (of which there are usually two or three) are called the genders of that language. According to one definition: “Genders are classes of nouns reflected in the behaviour of associated words.”

In other words, it does not apply to people. People have a sex – male or female. Nouns and/or verbs have gender depending on the language. It tells me that the girl is ‘la muchacha’ in Spanish as opposed to ‘el muchacha’, which is entirely wrong.

So the liberals have it right! Gender is a ‘social construct.’ However, the construct does not apply to people. You are either male or female. It’s genetic throughout every cell of your body. You have XX or YX. No amount of surgery will change that.

No such thing as a ‘trans-gender.’
