Saint Sebastian is one of the great ancient martyrs of the Roman Catholic Church as well as one of the saints most frequently depicted in artwork down through the centuries. The image of Sebastian tied to a stake, his body riddled with arrows, is one of the most immediately recognizable and jarring images of the ancient martyrs. As with many of the martyrs from the days prior to Constantine, his story has become somewhat muddled. He is mentioned in a homily of Saint Ambrose (On Psalm 118) as having come from Milan. Most of the rest of his biography comes...

Gov. Ron DeSantis remains vague about whether he received the COVID-19 booster shot. In Sarasota Friday, the Governor was asked whether he had gotten the booster, a question he evaded previously, and he suggested yet again he may not have gotten the shot. “So that’s something that I think people should make their own decisions on. I’m not going to let that be a weapon for people to use. I think that’s a private matter,” DeSantis said before turning the question as a cudgel against the Joe Biden administration. “The FDA recommended against boosters for people in my age group,...

American basketball player Sonny Weems was subjected to racial abuse in China after his team Southern Tigers played against Liaoning Flying Leopards last Thur. In a viral video, fans of Flying Leopards repeatedly shouted the "N" word at Weems as he’s exiting the team bus.

The Roman Space Telescope is a NASA observatory designed to unravel the secrets of dark energy and dark matter, search for and image exoplanets, and explore many topics in infrared astrophysics. Credit: NASA A team of astrophysicists has created a simulated image that shows how the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope could conduct a mega-exposure similar to but far larger than Hubble’s celebrated Ultra Deep Field Image. This Hubble observation transformed our view of the early universe, revealing galaxies that formed just a few hundred million years after the big bang. “Roman has the unique ability to image very large...

Somewhere deep down, Chuck Schumer seems genuinely to believe that, however many times Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema choose to make themselves clear, they are destined to end up admitting that they like green eggs and ham after all. I cannot count the number of news stories I have read in the last six months that included both a confirmation that Schumer intended to steam ahead and sentences such as “despite Senator Manchin’s opposition” or “despite not having the votes” or “despite the exercise being destined ultimately to fail.” In Schumer’s imagination, Washington, D.C., seems to work like a scene...

The star sold 100 million albums worldwide and also appeared in movies like Fight Club, the Rocky Horror Picture Show and Wayne's World.

Some people are born to be the pocket…some are born to be the pocket pet. Unfortunately people like George Soros are the former and the majority of our political class the latter.And that reminds me of a song: Willie Nelson, Everywhere I Go I'll take you with me everywhere I go I'll put you in my pocket, who will know? Right next to my heart at every show I'll take you with me everywhere I goNo matter where our trails will finally wind Our paths will just keep crossing, yours and mine Until then, and in my pocket you must...

So many things the Democrats organized have turned out to be false flag operations (Whitmer kidnapping, January 6) that it would be safe to assume that everthing they do is a false flag operation until proven otherwise. This brings us to the strange case of the imminent Russian invasion of Ukraine. We are supposed to believe that the modern Machievelli, Vladimir Putin, has had 100,000 Russian troops camped out in the snow for months on end, poised to invade Ukraine. No complaints from the Russian troops have been heard, so these must be really hard men, capable of enduring enormous...

As many of New England’s industrial cities fell into decline in recent decades, the wealthier residents of Martha’s Vineyard, a regional center of affluence and privilege, have gotten richer, building and rebuilding beachfront megamansions. But their good fortune has hardly benefited everyone on the island, where economic inequality has run rampant. For Michael Friedman, a 55-year-old IT engineer, rising prices driven by rich residents’ expanding wealth have made it harder to stay and raise his family on the tree-covered Massachusetts island where he grew up. “What can you say?” he says, driving past the Obama family’s Vineyard property in late...

Post-Patriotic America Will Be Worse Than You ThinkSaving America means saving more than just America. As a high school and university civics teacher for 24 years, I am rarely at a loss for words. But today, some of the things my students utter leave me more than a little intrigued.“I just don’t want to live in a country with a health care system like this one.” “I’m not sure the compromises in Philadelphia two hundred years ago were worth it.” “I don’t think patriotism makes any sense. I didn’t choose to be born here. Why be proud of it?” Ten...

On January 8, a so-called ‘transgender woman’ swimmer calling himself Lia Thomas (real name: Will Thomas), after sweeping NCAA races in December, lost to a woman who claims to be a man but still swam as a woman. I wrote then that Thomas’s race looked like a set-up intended to prove that, just because men claim to be women, that doesn’t mean they have a competitive advantage. Now, one of the real women who swam at that meet has come forward alleging that the fake man and fake woman did indeed collude before the race. You can read my January...

Today Mars, Inc., the company behind those bags of M&M’s, has announced that the sugar coated chocolates are going woke. Specifically, they’re making the female candy characters more masculine in a bid to make the sweet treats “inclusive.”

More prophesy being fulfilled with one world religion.

A biological female member of the University of Pennsylvania women’s swimming team said she believes her transgender teammate Lia Thomas colluded with a Yale transgender athlete so she could lose to prove a point, according to a report. Yalie Iszac Henig, who is transitioning from female to male, beat Thomas in both the women’s 100- and 400-yard freestyle races during an Ivy League swim meet on Jan. 8. Henig was reportedly able to compete on the women’s team because she had yet to start testosterone treatment. Thomas, who has been shattering women’s team records, has become a lightning rod as...
