Reader Email: Possible Duke Contradiction?

JM writes:

Dear Sir,

In your latest article “Where do we go from here”, you state: 

And will we, as all civilizations eventually do, soon go the way of ancient Rome? It's possible. Remember, however, that when Rome fell there were still people living in her lost lands. They still had to forge societies. And some did a better job than others. 

As a fellow Christian, I viewed the entire article as an appropriate view of our current society and likely future. 

I read your article about Justice Roberts’ decision regarding Obamacare (a low point in history for the court) where you made the statement: 

(If you're unusually astute [this does not include Roberts], you understand that civilizations move through phases, and our current leftist one won't last forever.)

In less than three weeks you went from “phases, and our current leftist one won't last forever” to basically advising to stockpile and form local groups for common defense and needs.  That’s a bit of a change of perspective in such a short period of time.  This change of attitude is what I would like to see explained a bit further. 

Sincerely,

JM

Dear JM,

Duke Responds to Reader: What is the Nature of Law?

A reader recently posted the following response to my article "The Truth on Biden's Abortion Malarkey."

Very nice discussion, Mr. Duke, but you present a false alternative. It’s subtly implicit in your text here: “So a just law must reflect morality, but what is morality? Who determines it? There are only two possibilities: man or something outside of man does.”

The Irrationality of the Left: Duke Responds to Reader on Constitution

By Selwyn Duke

Since an understanding of the Constitution is so rare nowadays, I've decided to respond to a poster who advocates the reckless and unlawful "living document" philosophy.  I address his points at length, and I think you may find elements of the response useful in framing your arguments when defending the Constitution.

Duke Reponds to Critics of Sexual Identity Crisis Article

This is a response to critics of my piece "Death of the West: Our Sexual Identity Crisis." It originally appeared at American Thinker.

By Selwyn Duke

Because of the controversy this article has evoked, the editor of American Thinker, Thomas Lifson, has requested that I address some of the criticisms I’ve received.  And I am happy to do so, as it’s obvious that some critics haven’t read the whole piece, have only skimmed it, or reacted to it so emotionally that they couldn’t digest what was actually written.

Reader Email: What Does "Turn the Other Cheek" Really Mean?

By Selwyn Duke

Today I'm going to respond to a reader who had a question relating to my last article, "Which Side Really Inspires Violence, the Right or Left?"  Here is the email the reader, LR, sent:

Reader Email: More on Hating Whitey

By Selwyn Duke

Today I will publish two more responses to my controversial piece (it is so because it expresses Truth in an age of lies) "In Defense of the White Man."  One of the emails is positive, the other negative . . . to say the least.  The first one is from Robert, who writes:

Duke Responds to Poster: In Defense of the White Man

By Selwyn Duke

Not surprisingly, my recent piece "In Defense of the White Man," evoked a tremendous response (emails are still coming in).  Also not surprising is that some of them were negative and expressed some very common misconceptions relating to the article's subject matter.  Because of this, and being that the issue at hand here is so important, I'm going to respond today and in the near future to some of the comments I've received.  And today I'll focus on a post left at my site by "Sam."

Mailbag: Duke, You're Insensitive! How Dare You Doubt the Altered Men!

By Selwyn Duke

After writing my piece about the man who won the women's long drive contest, I received a lot of criticism from altered-men apologists.  One of these critiques was just posted at my site, and here it is as it was sent to me (my response follows):

Reader Email: Hey, Why Don't You Lay Off Obama and His Birth Certificate, Duke?

By Selwyn Duke

Many people think it's crazy that some Americans are questioning whether Barack Obama is a natural-born U.S. citizen.  For instance, ST writes:

Duke's Reponse to Loving, Angry Atheists

By Selwyn Duke

The great G.K. Chesterton once said, "Really, there are only two kinds of people: those who accept dogmas and know it, and those who accept dogmas and don't know it."  If you want to read the musings of those in the latter category, you need look no further than the hostile postings left under my article about would-be philosopher king Richard Dawkins.  These individuals are some of a legion of folks under Dawkins' delusion.  In fact, so dogmatic are they that they never even gave the piece I wrote its day in court in their minds.  So here is my response to them.
