One Take on the National Conservatism Conference in Rome
CWR Dispatch: In the Eternal City, the second National Conservatism conference concludes by Titus Techera
National conservatism both holds Christianity in high regard, as the title of the conference acknowledges, and makes certain demands on Christianity at a political level.

If You Oppose the Bishops
on these points, will you get a verified yellow check?
US bishops oppose expansion of immigration restrictions
Colorado’s Catholic bishops back death penalty repeal
When the bishops are able to distinguish between Tradition, the Natural Law, theological opinion, and private judgment/opinion, maybe they can have the authority to hand yellow checks to Catholic bloggers and commentators.

A Membership Problem
CNA/CWR: In major change, Knights of Columbus drop secret initiation ceremony
The Freemasons are having difficulty getting members and they and similar organizations opened enrollment to women. One reason is the breakdown of communal bonds in general. But another would be their perceived irrelevance, and the same could be said of the KoC, who despite their good works, won't be able to recruit men who no longer go to church and the number of men who continue to go to church greys, with few younger men to replace them. When the church is feminized, of what value does being a KoC really have? What men should have been doing is organizing and bringing about reform to their local churches, either collaboratively with the priest and bishop, or through confrontation and conflict.

Stop Eating Carbs
Fasting and exercise bolster brain health in aging by depleting liver glycogen.
— P. D. Mangan 🇺🇸 (@Mangan150) February 2, 2020
What is not said: you can deplete glycogen by not eating carbohydrates.
Saying that carbs promote aging is the most politically incorrect idea in aging science.https://t.co/JhkjERXHQl pic.twitter.com/RxlptfTlv0
American Bishops Should Read This
CWR: Love, Loyalty, and Justice by James Kalb
Higher principles do not require a featureless global society ordered by commerce and public administration and run by billionaires and bureaucrats.

Top Gun Superbowl Commercial
Probably this is the summer blockbuster to beat this year. But the movie is as woke as the actual US Navy, and the movie will still be a reminder of how badly things have changed in the last 34 years. Too bad they weren't able to film the original with the equipment they had for the sequel.
Chinese Girl Power Fantasy
Maybe it would have been better if Disney had hired a Chinese director experienced with wuxia films. Maybe not. Hey Disney, does it look and sound bad if all of your cast speaks English with accents?
Superbowl Fail
The 49ers weren't good enough to win. But this is the reason they deserved to lose, for peddling SJW convergence in partnership with Microsoft.
Yeah, that Superbowl halftime show was a horrendous display of girl power and feminist absolutism which is defined by the freedom to flaunt one's sexuality in the face of others.

The Gentlemen
Funny and fun movie. No good characters (it's a gangster comedy by Guy Ritchie), no morally praiseworthy character arcs. (It gets an "O" from CNS.) One could try to make the claim it's a Machiavellian ethnonationalist/political allergory, I suppose. It's definitely not politically correct and the SJWs are complaining about it being racist, outdated, etc. In that way it could perhaps be lumped with 1917, Ford v. Ferrari...
