“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

r/K selection theory made simple

It would appear that Bill Whittle picked up a copy of Michael Trust’s Anonymous Conservative’s best book, The Evolutionary Psychology Behind Politics, and came to much the same set of conclusions that I did when I read it. And, in his usual lucid style, he...

Psalm 23

There are times in one’s life when things seem to get out of control, and the world ceases to make sense. Times when tragedy and loss strike quickly and easily, and when even the strongest man can be brought low by the weight on his shoulders. It is precisely...

Back when George W. Bush was elected President, an email hoax was circulated reporting that President Bush had the lowest IQ of any occupant of the Oval Office in the entire history of the nation, and that President Clinton had, by far, the highest ever recorded....

Red-card the whole thing

The folly of unlimited immigration becomes more transparent by the day: The overwhelming majority of immigration to the United States is the result of our visa policies. Each year, millions of visas are issued to temporary workers, foreign students, refugees, asylees,...
