Trump

Worshipping the Golden Jackasses

The boys who commissioned the statue and put money down couldn't seem to come up with the balance. The artist knew the administration's playbook all too well and hid the sculpture in a warehouse until the balance was delivered and the check cleared.

Abbott

If Loving Texas is Wrong...

...I don't want to be right.

With God On Our Side

With apologies to Bob Dylan.

Religion

From a Distance

"A species that is currently killing its own members over whose interpretation of God is correct is not ready to be told that the God question may need to be reopened from the very beginning."

Religion

Stand Back. We're Spoutin' Religion Today...

Well, Pope Leo, at least you tried.

Trump

Shittz and Giggles

The absurdity of it all jumps in front of you, and you have to laugh just to keep from committing a violent crime.

A Cosmic Hammer?

"The experience is real to her. I can’t say there are aliens abducting humans. But I have no way to account for what she is experiencing or thinks she is experiencing."

Texas Politics

Judge Not, Lest You Aren't Elected

...marching as to war.

Texas Politics

The Three Pendejos!

The idea that "no one could have seen this coming," or that "nothing could have been done," being repeated by officials is just a deflective exercise in CYA. (Cover Your Ass.) And did you know that Ken Paxton had an affair?

Trump

A Warm Place in Hell

"You're just a dude. You look like a McKinsey consultant. Or some Wall St. rando." He laughed. Hard. "Wall St. I mean, a huge client base for me, that's for sure!"

Religion

False Profits

Evangelicals have become a political force in this country, and they hope to take over every facet of our existence. Trump, an irreligious man, has them all fooled into believing he is a believer. He has never read the Bible, but, if asked, he’d respond with, “Nobody knows more about God than me.”

Trump

We'd Nail Him Up Again

He would call her a “Radical Left hard-line Trump hater” on his Truth Social site. He demanded that the Bishop apologize. Because she asked for mercy.

Religion

Boxing with God

"Tonight at 7:00 p.m., Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick will join Matt Crouch, Chairman of Trinity Broadcasting Network, and Dr. Phil for a thought-provoking discussion: whether President Trump’s survival of the recent assassination attempt was a mere stroke of luck or divine intervention."

Culture

Sacre Bleu!

Wherein we all get our knickers in a twist over the French.

Trump

Make the Bible Great Again

Your "God Bless the USA Bible" will ship with a copy of the Declaration of Independence, AND the Pledge of Allegiance! You will never have to worry about the separation of church and state again!

Religion

Is it Time for Churches to Pay Taxes?

When it comes to churches that act like political action committees, I think we should continue to ask; why hasn’t their tax-exempt status been revoked or at least challenged by the IRS on a grand scale?

Texas History

What Really Happened at Waco

"Everybody was panicked, I can tell you that. Especially those guys who had been hit. They were screaming. I think one or two of them got hit in the gut just below their armor... No one other than the ATF and the Davidians knew what started all the shooting."

Religion

"Is Gandhi in Heaven?" and Other Conundra for Our Times

Sister Mary Elizabeth was my sixth-grade teacher at St. Peter, Prince of the Apostles grade school in San Antonio. I do not think I am being immodest in saying that I was probably the most arrogant, annoying little smartass in the class.

Religion

Render Unto the Orange Julius Caesar...

Religion and politics can be a toxic mix and one that Jefferson guy warned us about.

Religion

The Least of These

“The bosom of America is open to receive not only the opulent and respected stranger, but the oppressed and persecuted of all nations and religions; whom we shall welcome to a participation of all our rights and privileges.” - President George Washington
