One Problem With Untethered Empathy

"Remember that the greatest blasphemy ever committed was the conviction of Christ on a blasphemy charge. What was actually happening was invisible to the perpetrators.

So when empathy wars break out, one of the first things we should notice is how
precious little empathy is displayed by those defending empathy.

Not only do they not display the thing that their banners stand for, they also display a real-time embodiment of the concerns expressed by their opponents. It is like watching berserkers storm your ramparts, with banners unfurled above them—felt banners that have inspirational messages on them, like Try a Little Tenderness, or God Don’t Make No Junk.

Say, for example, that a critic of untethered empathy says that it amounts to a feminist-coded word that provides a way of surrounding a particular emotional maneuver with certain feminine virtues, such that to strike a blow against empathy, you have to be willing to hit a girl. And so the retort comes that this argument amounts to a misogynist attack on all women. To which the critic might simply reply, with a smile, Q.E.D."

Where Will President Trump Be Buried?

We don’t know. Are plans being made for a magnificent sarcophagus? Something like the huge, elaborate one he imagined for Charlie Kirk? Not that I know of. When will be the day of his death? I don’t know, but his Creator has already appointed the day and the hour.

Will his funeral be meaningful, theologically? With Christian theology? I don’t know that either.

But I have been impressed with the funeral of one great nobleman who died 25 years ago at age 99, buried in Austria. His final resting place was not elaborate, but significant. It was in the crypt of a Capuchin church, the place where his royal ancestors, monarchs of a vast, 600-year-old empire, had been entombed for centuries. The crypt was locked and guarded by Capuchin friars.

Prince Otto von Habsburg, born in 1912, would have been the next in line as king of that empire, but Hitler invaded Austria and ordered the arrest and murder of the prince, who escaped into Europe and played a leading role in world affairs for ...

Two Lethal Weapons Which, Taken Together, Attack Cancer

First, ivermectin appears to target cancer stem cells—the small, highly resistant population of cells that drive recurrence and metastasis. Most conventional therapies fail to eliminate these cells. You can shrink a tumor, but if the stem cells remain, the cancer often comes back. Laboratory data suggest ivermectin disrupts this root system.

Second, mebendazole interferes with microtubule formation, which is essential for cell division. When you disrupt microtubules, cancer cells lose their ability to replicate effectively. This creates a direct anti-proliferative effect.

Third, mebendazole also impacts tumor metabolism, particularly glucose utilization. Cancer cells are heavily dependent on glucose to fuel rapid growth. Limiting that pathway places them under significant metabolic stress.

Hungary in Peril

In about ten hours the polls in Hungary open. Then, over the next 13 hours Hungarians will decide if they want a culture of life or a culture of death and slavery. Those stakes affect not just one nation, and not just one continent but the entire Western world.

If elected again, the current government of Viktor Orban will continue boldly down the path which will honor Christian Hungary’s thousand-year legacy of fighting for freedom. Orban will continue unashamedly to champion the case for a painstaking return to a European Christendom. He is setting the example of how that can be done, even in a land oppressed by decades by communism.

The alternative candidate is a feckless puppet of the popular globalist agenda, which will then sweep over Hungary like a storm, destroying Hungary’s progress, sovereignty, economy, freedom of speech and courageous governmental reforms. But most threatening of all is the plan to invalidate and annihilate all of Orban’s efforts to remind Hungary of ...
