  We revisit professor Glenn Diesen’s book Russian Conservatism, which examines how Russia after a century of experimenting with communism and liberalism, has returned to its long conservative history, which dominated before 1917.  The Cold War continues to dominate the West’s analysis and understanding of Russia. From 1917 to 1991, Russia was interpreted through the lens of communism, and since …

  In my book, The Tyranny of Good Intentions published 23 years ago, I pointed out that “law and order conservatives” enabled government to set aside protective aspects of law in order to easier and more certainly convict the Mafia, drug users, child abusers–whoever the target was at the specific time. Western World Is Now a Tyranny: I said that the law …

  The 20th century introduced Marxist, atheist emptiness to the masses in the West. It may be argued that with it came the notion of life as a meaningless burden. With no heaven ahead and no hell to fear, the conscience was deemed an unnecessary relic from the past. Only the empirically observable was to be considered real, eternity regarded …

  The term “secular” has been completely redefined by the New Left Western atheists. Secularism was invented in the 1600s as a guarantee that all faiths would be respected. Secularism was never defined as atheism or godlessness, but rather the very opposite. To be secular meant to respect religious freedoms for all. Today secularism is often understood as a political …

  It is Easter. We celebrate the Easter message of Jesus Christ as he was willing to suffer an excruciating death in order to give his life for the redemption of human kind. Those who attempt to follow Christ, are to take up their cross and follow his example in love for humanity, writes Hanne Nabintu Herland for World Net …

In a time of upheaval and radically changing values in the West, it is important to reflect on the world view that shaped the West and historically created a strong civilization. The origins of traditional Western values are mainly found in the Greek, Roman and Judeo-Christian heritage. The radical Hebrew–Christian contribution to the concept of Western values differed from both …

    As history is twisted to fit the atheist Marxist narrative, we are made to believe that modern Western values are of secular or atheist origin. This is not correct. The Western success story: Leading scientists and philosophers during the 1600’s Enlightenment period and earlier were devout Christians. They developed ideals such as equality regardless of race, creed and …

  On Christmas eve in Paris the police were battling violent protesters from the Paris Kurdish community. Clashes of this sort have become common all over Europe. They are the product of “diversity” and “multiculturalism.” Countries that constitute the West are no longer nations. They are conglomerates of populations that have nothing in common. There are no common mores, no …

  For too many decades the American people, by which I mean the people born and raised in the US in neighborhoods where there were family and neighbors who shared a culture, language, values, and history, have sat tolerantly while a tiny percentage of the population took away their culture by making it offensive to the tiny minority for Americans …

  We now celebrate Christmas and the magic of the baby boy born in Bethlehem who grew to become the world’s most significant person. As over two billion Christians across the globe seek the grace of this celestial king, the man with greater spiritual powers than anyone else on earth, we also reflect on the powerful ethical standards and values …
