The new math, deriving from Critical Race Theory, is no idle matter, but an insidious attempt that will impair children and destroy nations. It’s time to say no. To deny reason and reality is nonsense. Stanford University Economist and Social Theorist Thomas Sowell speaks very clearly. Ours may become the
Even in the so-called Dark Ages, one plus one equaled two. But today, Critical Race Theory scorns that reality as “White Math.” Mathematics dates its discovery and articulation as a discipline to Pythagoras of Samos (569 – 475 BC). Historians recognize Pythagoras as the father of mathematics. Princeton mathematician Sergiu
Sergiu Klainerman was born to a Jewish family in Bucharest in 1950, in the impoverished Communist “prison state” that was Nicolae Ceaușescu’s Romania. After high school he studied Mathematics at the University of Bucharest. His circumstances and culture afforded little opportunity: he could hope for little more than being a

On June 13, 2020, thousands of French citizens joined a BLM protest in front of the Eiffel Tower. Before it was over, the protest had morphed to a riot. But this is not the first sign of Wokeness in France. Woke ideology permeated French universities for years, before infecting French
Centuries after the gospel brought compassion to ancient Rome, the context of our world today is equally difficult. I have been told of places in Africa where twins are seen as an evil omen; at birth they are not allowed to live. The reality of people begging on the streets
Compassion as practiced by the early church serves as a contrast to that of the Romans and even the Jews at that time. Very often, the Jews at the time of Christ were merciless to sinners and Gentiles. Their law forbid helping a Gentile mother and her child even in
Why does the world hate the Jews? Dennis Prager relates Hitler’s answer to this question. “We are fighting,” he said, “against the most ancient curse that humanity has brought upon itself. Against the so-called Ten Commandments, against them we are fighting.” His life’s mission, he said, was to destroy “the
