Burke Cannot Save Mainstream Conservatism

What has movement "conservatism" or the Republican Party conserved? Nothing. The essayist naively assumes that either of those two entities would be interested in adopting Burke. Only an alternative can protect legitimate traditions rooted in the Natural Law.

Human laws and institutions should reflect the order and goodness of God and His eternal law, which man defies at his peril.

What Robert George has been up to recently...



Austin Ruse: Robert George Says Believe James Martin









This is how academics usually roll: operators posing as moderates who are of the center.

The day of the Catholic academic taking for granted a role as a member of the Catholic intellectual leadership is coming to an end.

Is there any "New Natural Lawyer" who isn't a liberal and a civic nationalist, and thus a useful idiot for the state?

It should not be necessary to say this, but even Roman Catholics can be cuckservatives.

John McLaughlin Passes

‘McLaughlin Group’ Host John McLaughlin Dies at 89
NY Daily News

I watched McLaughlin Group during my undergraduate days; part of my movement conservative phase. While I liked PJB being on the panel, I didn't really pay much attention to him at the time. I did pay attention to McLaughlin because of his rather brusque manner and because he was supposedly Catholic. At the time his being a former Jesuit and an ordained priest didn't bother me so much, compared to his status as a political pundit. Did he ever write about being a Catholic or his experiences with the Jesuits? What did he think of Pope Francis?
