Sovereign God // A Christ Calendar // Lincoln's Racist Legacy

Tolkien and John Calvin would have scoffed at each other, but they shared a grand vision of God's sovereignty in their outlook and writings.


Fight Laugh Feast wants to "Colonize the Calendar" (Winter 2022)
We should mark the main feast days of Christ's redemptive work, to rejoice in Him and reclaim our time, and make June "life month" to oppose pride month.


Claremont, on Lincoln's view of blacks, in "Overcoming a House Divided."
Lincoln seldom confronted the cultural prejudice against blacks in his time.  But he did advocate for their natural rights and invited many to his White House, which outraged the press and much of polite society.  Frederick Douglass was an early critic won over when he saw the politically racist constraints Lincoln faced.  Lincoln risked much for them, and lost his life for it in the end.
