The charge taken up here is one of the oldest, and at the moment one of the most effective. It holds that Christianity never truly cleansed the sacred world of the nations: that she came late to ground already holy, condemned its gods with one hand, and quietly kept their worship with the other, so that beneath the Christian names the old cults go on, renamed and absorbed but never converted. Against this I mean to show what the charge cannot see, that the Church, where she is allowed to be herself, has the power to heal and to purify fallen worship. She does this neither by pretending the old cults were harmless nor by flattening the world into the dead matter that the secular age prefers to manage. She does it by judging the idols, by casting the demons out of the places they had seized, by blessing the creation they had only counterfeited, by praying for the dead instead of feeding them, and by handing a man’s whole world back to the God who made it.

Did Christianity Steal from Paganism?, by Brother Nilus - The Unz Review - (One of the best insights I have read. - CL)
The Racism Police - Vox Popoli
Rape, assault, and theft aren’t considered crimes in the UK anymore, not when they’ve got emergency racisms to stop!
The furore over two-tier policing intensified last night after a supermarket boss accused officers of treating a false claim of racism more seriously than rampant violence by shoplifters. Iceland founder Sir Malcolm Walker says ‘two-tier policing isn’t just happening on the streets’ as he revealed cops rushed to one of his stores three minutes after a phoney accusation of racism was made against a shop supervisor.....
Existence and collective self-defense has never been a sin and it cannot be a crime. The crime here is being committed by the Clown Worlders, who have openly admitted they are trying to stamp out the existence of specific peoples, religions, and cultures. And remember that every single individual who has been accused of “racism” and “white supremacy” has been set up and falsely accused by the most evil creatures on the planet, literal demons and cannibals, who are anti-human and in whom Jesus Christ himself declared there was no truth.
Equality is a lie. Racism is an inversion. Civil rights are neither granted by God nor guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution. The Enlightenment was constructed upon an equivocation. Do not be deceived.
The Finding in the Folio - Vox Popoli - (Shakespeare was a plagiarist fake! - CL)
Dennis McCarthy offers further proof that Ben Jonson, and a number of his colleagues, knew very well that Thomas North was the original author of most of the Shakespeare plays.
As we shall see in this article, Jonson’s celebrated ode contains a shocking secret—a dead giveaway to the true origin of the canon. In other words, the answer to the most significant literary question in history—who was the original author of Shakespeare’s plays?—has been sitting prominently in the front of the First Folio for the last 400 years. Jonson was not being remotely subtle…
As I frequently point out with no hyperbole: the second greatest plagiarist in history has not borrowed half as much, perhaps not one-tenth as much, from another writer as Shakespeare has from North......
It’s interesting to see how long ago writers were having to skirt the mainstream narrative in order to avoid getting canceled.
Ben Jonson's Ode to Shakespeare: The Stunning 400-Year-Old Secret at the Front of the First Folio
This is a big day for All the Mysteries That Remain, as we are about to solve one of the more puzzling problems involving the true origin of Shakespeare’s plays. I’ve tried to write the article so that it is easily understandable to lay people—even as it answers questions that have vexed the most engrossed of Shakespeare researchers, both orthodox and heretical (like my dear friends over at Who Wrote Shakespeare.)
In 1623, Ben Jonson wrote one of the most famous odes one poet ever crafted for another—To the Memory of My Beloved the author Master William Shakespeare, and what he hath left us. The poem was prominently placed at the beginning of the first official collection of Shakespeare's plays known as the First Folio. Yet some eight years later, the poet Leonard Digges wrote a scathing rebuttal to Jonson’s ode, denouncing it as an attack against Shakespeare.1 He was so furious that he wanted Jonson's supposedly abusive poem removed for the publication of the Second Folio (1632)—and replaced with Digges’s own defense of the Stratford playwright, answering Jonson’s insults “point by point.”2 In 1693, the renowned Shakespeare enthusiast John Dryden responded similarly to Digges, labeling Jonson’s poem as “an insolent, sparing, and invidious panegyric.”3 And Brian Vickers has noted that Dryden’s “judgment has been echoed many times.”4
But no one has been able to explain what was so insolent and invidious about the poem—until now. As we shall see in this article, Jonson’s celebrated ode contains a shocking secret—a dead giveaway to the true origin of the canon. In other words, the answer to the most significant literary question in history—who was the original author of Shakespeare’s plays?—has been sitting prominently in the front of the First Folio for the last 400 years. Jonson was not being remotely subtle. And, at the end of this article, you are almost certainly going to be asking yourself the same question I think about daily: HOW ON EARTH DID EVERYONE MISS THIS?
Israel Asks For A Guaranteed Share Of U.S. Weapon Purchases – Moon of Alabama
The colonial expansion of Israel is openly subsidized by the U.S. with currently $3.5 billion per year. Most of that money is bound to Israel’s purchase of U.S. made weapons. The stipend is controlled by Congress and must pass the yearly budget review.
The Israeli government is trying to change the stipend into a more lucrative racket.
It has suggested to replace the yearly subsidy by a ‘deeper military cooperation’ which is code for the guaranteed U.S. purchases of Israeli made weapons and continuous profits for Israel’s weapon manufacturers. To institute the new scheme Congress will pass a law that will integrate Israel’s military-industrial complex into U.S. procurement and production lines.
Israel's Meddling MUST BE STOPPED - Denninger
Even the DIA -- the part of the DOD that monitors intelligence-related threats -- now classifies Israel as among the most-serious threats to the United States when it comes to espionage.
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon is increasingly concerned about Israel ramping up its spying on the U.S., recently raising the counterintelligence threat level from America’s top ally in the Middle East to the highest level, according to two U.S. officials and one former U.S. official.
That's not a "fringe conspiracy theory" it is the assessment of the Pentagon itself.
We must cut said ties. Period.
That's not a "fringe conspiracy theory" it is the assessment of the Pentagon itself.
We must cut said ties. Period.
America must make its defense-related decisions by Americans, for Americans, and for no other purpose.
All so-called "allies" who engage in this sort of conduct, which is not the same thing, obviously, as consensual and knowing sharing of information related to joint operations and interests, must be entirely blackballed in all respects by the State Department and their so-called "allied" status revoked.
There has to be a price for this sort of misconduct and that is the clear and obvious price that must be enforced -- and we must, as a nation, make clear that to be our ally you may not be engaged in such conduct. If you do so then you're out -- period.
Work, Brothers - Vox Popoli
Russia appears to be gearing up for something, if Putin’s coded message to her soldiers is any guide:
Rather than engage with Zelensky’s proposals, Putin turned away from the letter entirely. He said the ones to be addressed were Russia’s combatants and soldiers at the line of contact, telling them:
The country is proud of you and places its hopes on you. We should address not the authors of this letter, nor lovers of the epistolary genre, but our fighters on the front line.
He then closed with the phrase: “Work, brothers!”
To understand the import of that phrase you need to be introduced to Magomed Nurbagandov:
Now the limits of the US military have been clearly established, it makes sense that Russia no longer feels the need to maintain the holding pattern it has been in for the last three years. And unlike his people, who are primarily focused on Ukraine, and to a lesser extent the European Union, Putin understands that their real enemy is Clown World.
