Thanks to Instapundit, who really put me out there, and my own surfing, I’ve found some link-worthy bloggers. Here’s a sample:
Check out D.C. Thornton, who owns guns and refers to himself as an American, not “African-American.” Now this man, I like. He’s a libertarian with a small “l”, but that’s OK. He’ll come around!
I’ve been to King of Fools blog before, but I don’t think I ever mentioned him.
Ryan’s (Head) baby started screaming when he saw a picture of Kerry. Coincidence?
Anthony has some cute pictures of his daughter over at The Useful Arts. I knew about his blog but hadn’t linked to it, either.
I’ll post more good sites later. And as you can guess, many other sites linked to me, but I’d rather not provide a forum via my blog for such views.

Dennis Prager explains what “Judeo-Christian” means and why it makes America unique among all the nations:
The United States of America is the only country in history to have defined itself as Judeo-Christian. While the Western world has consisted of many Christian countries and consists today of many secular countries, only America has called itself Judeo-Christian. America is also unique in that it has always combined secular government with a society based on religious values.
Prager articulates what I tried to when discussing whether the U.S. was called to uphold “Christian” values. His column is a good starting point for those who may want to delve further into the history and meaning of “Judeo-Christian.”

That was a wild ride! When I sat down the other day to draft the post on John Kerry’s misuse of James 2, I had no idea it would generate this much attention. The word of God is indeed powerful!
I was surprised — but pleased — by the onslaught of commentors and detractors. Based on the comments I’ve read from people on my own blog and other sites that took issue with my post, I stand accused of using the Bible to support a “conservative” position, when what I actually did was show that Kerry took James 2 out of context to support his opinion that George Bush is not “compassionate,” however one defines the word.
While I could have been clearer and more precise, I suspect some would still take issue with my assertion. Most critics responded with a barrage of philosophical arguments about government’s role in helping the less fortunate. My point, however, was that government social programs are not “fruits” of salvation. That’s it! That is my assertion. But no matter how clear you are, some will always come away with a different interpretation, just as they do with the Bible.
For example, most critics missed my point that James 2:14-17 does not pertain to governments. What Kerry implied in his “sermon” was that because George Bush is a Christian, he should be spending more of your tax money as a display of his “good works,” thereby proving his Christian compassion. That’s flat out unbiblical nonsense.

I’ve hit the stratosphere of the blogoshere: Instapundit linked to my “Kerry quoting Scripture” post.
