What is below was inspired by Bishop Barrons reflection on the Sep 17th Gospel and the book I have been reading by SR. Angela De Fatima Coelho INSIDE the LIGHT. Let me start with Bishop Barrons reflection. “In today’s Gospel Jesus observes that the people of this generation criticize Him as a friend of tax […]
The Declaration of Independence is one of the greatest theological and philosophical treatises on the origin of human rights and the idea that governments should be formed to protect these rights. It advocated that man should bind himself to the laws of nature and nature’s God. They provide an objective point of reference to truth […]
We are being lied to and have become numb to deceptions. We have allowed this misguidance to lead to the abuse of our free will and have become complacent in our acceptance of the lies being peddled before us. Rather than accepting these lies, let us follow the truth. The truth is marriage is an […]
It has been inaction rather than the actions taken by this governor that are endangering the rule of law and the fabric that binds us as a civilized society.

The Editorial on Jim Chmelik former Idaho County Commissioner can be read here. Well it’s been five weeks since the election and based on the amount of press, and e-mail comments from the left, I must be winning. The ideas I battle for are based in the truth, and they ring faithful to the blessing […]
Reply to Jim Caswell’s Article, “Looking Past Malheur: America’s real Public Lands Legacy“: Mr. Caswell’s comments in the Hill Magazine lack any understanding of our founding principal or any basis in economic reality or evidence to support his statements. As usual he claims the state will simply sell the lands when in reality that is […]
If you have not read Martin Luther King’s “Letter from a Birmingham Jail” you should. Though I do not write from a jail I feel the cold hard floor of the concrete and the imposing presence of the dark steel bars that are encaging the West.
