Saddle up your camels, ladies, we're off to battle! A free-wheeling commentary of a lady who believes that women belong in combat, certainly not in the military, but in the home -- in the spiritual battle for their families. Join us on the frontlines as we cover homeschooling, the culture wars, raising sons, virtuous manhood and womanhood, helping our husbands, femininity, serving Christ the King, and all other fronts in the holy war we face. Up camels!

Deja Vu!

I nearly didn't click on this article because of the sensationalist name, but I'm so glad I did and I hope you will read it, too. There are some extremely alarming things happening in Russia that are very reminiscent of Hitler's rise to power. The first few paragraphs of this article emphasize the sensational aspects of the situation, but you really need to read the whole thing. The Whole Thing. Evidently, there is a rise of "Putin Youth" that needs no strain to bring to mind the HitlerJugend. That coupled with the rewrite of Russian history to sanitize, even idolize Stalin, one of the biggest mass murderers of all time (responsible for between 10 and 60 millions deaths), while denigrating Russia's brief foray into democracy ought to make your skin crawl. If it doesn't, you need a history lesson. Go back and click on all the links. When you know the history, you will be alarmed.
