I’m waiting for the first liar to come on here and say, “I’m reading The Federalist Papers”. As for me I’m reading Jim Butcher’s Codex Alera series. It’s good for my inner geek.

Wordy and stiff, but interesting.

Just finished “The Fourth Part of the World,” a fascinating account of slow and gradual process of learning the geography of our planet and how to map it, how America got its name, et cetera. About to begin reading “Rawhide Down.”

Just finished, The Question of God: C.S. Lewis and Sigmund Freud Debate God, Love, Sex, and the Meaning of Life by Dr. Nicholi, Jr.

Started Dalrymple's Life at the Bottom: The Worldview that makes the Underclass.

Dalrymple's book really explains what is happening in England now. The destruction of the natural family and the "Father" figure has actually destroyed the vibrant culture that used to dominate in England. Really sad but I see America as heading into that abyss of Marxism/atheism/paganism/occultism--away from the Judeo-Christian principles that made that country a true powerhouse.

The destruction of the white male is the destruction of the Protestant ethics and virtues. This destruction and atheism/occultism is extremely ugly. The dysfunction and ignorance of the children is creepy. The ugliness is perfectly painted with the prose of Dalrymple.
