No Kings?

They forced your businesses to close; but we have no kings.

They forced you to stay home; but we have no kings.

They forced you to mask; but we have no kings.

They forced on you the so-called vaccine; but we have no kings.

They forced on you social distancing; but we have no kings.

They forced on you quarantine; but we have no kings.

They forced your children out of school; but we have no kings.

They forced you to sit by while radicals burned their cities; but we have no kings.

They forced you to sit by while they arrested anyone not staying home; but we have no kings.

They forced the elderly and infirm to die alone without family; but we have no kings.

They forced the closure of houses of worship; but we have no kings.

They forced the banning of family gatherings; but we have no kings.

They forced clergy to stay out of hospitals comforting the sick; but we have no kings.

They forced families to stay away from their departed loved ones; but we have no kings.

They forced the closure of doctors, yet kept the abortionists; but we have no kings.

They forced bans on travel, yet opened wide the borders to all; but we have no kings. 

They forced you to stay home, so many lost work; but we have kings.

They forced you into fear of your neighbors; but we have no kings.

They forced you into a life of subservience and obedience; but we have no kings.


America has no kings; this much has always been true.  Yet the question isn’t whether there is a king, so much as “who?”.

If you allow yourself to be micromanaged by a political party in the name of “public health”, and gleefully surrender all civil rights that your ancestors fought and shed their blood for in the founding of this nation; you are the last person who has the right to protest “no kings”

Robinson: Right, Wrong, or Repugnant?

Image
 Recently, a well known Anglican conservative commentator and clergyman named Calvin Robinson was dismissed from his position within the Anglican Catholic Church, after his appearance at the National Pro-Life Summit in Washington, DC.  He wasn't dismissed for attending the summit or even for speaking at the same; but rather for a (for him) unavoidable incident of public trolling those who disagree with his positions on things.  First and foremost, the action in an of itself was not terribly horrible; a simple mocking replication of Elon Musk's "my heart goes out to you" gesture from the night of President Trump's inauguration: which prompted accusations of "Nazi salute", despite it being a quite common gesture before large audiences.  The gesture of placing your hand on your heart and then extending it out towards the assembly is a widespread gesture; and has even been used by politicians on the Democratic side, from Hillary Clinton to Tim Walz, Kamala H...

Ordinations and Construction

Image
 This past Saturday, the Diocese of which I am part held its ordinations to the priesthood.  This year we had 3 goodly candidates for orders, all sincere men who have expressed clearly over their years of formation a desire to serve and build up the church of God.  The service was obliged to be held at St. Timothy's Episcopal church in Winston-Salem; due to the fact that none of our own chapels at present would be able to hold the number of people who attended the service. I and the entire diocese are eternally grateful to the rector and people of St. Timothy's for allowing us to use their smaller chapel (to the side of the main church).  Words cannot possibly express our gratitude for their friendship and mutual work over the years.   The smaller chapel at St. Timothy's is not as small as it may sound, it's actually a quite decently sized church, and was the original church that their congregation started in many decades ago.  As I myself stood in the...

The Seal and the State

Image
 The state of Washington today instituted a new law which claims to seek protection for victims of child abuse; however in reality is a bill that seeks to compel clergy to violate pastor-penitent privilege in order to gain information.  On the surface, and indeed according to the supposedly Catholic governor of Washington state; it would seem a noble thing that there is now a law which requires clergy to break the seal of confession to report any and all instances of abuse brought to the confessional.  In reality though, such a law not only violates federal law ensuring free practice of religion; it also violates the constitution of the United States, which ensures a separation of church and state and also freedom of religious observance.   The long and the short of the sacrament of confession is this- no matter what sins may be uttered, what horrors of a past life divulged; the sins that are brought to the foot of the cross in confession do not belong to the pr...
