Five out of ten homeschool moms homeschool so we have an excuse to study history!
What If?

Glad my husband could be helpful.

I am impressed at your knowledge. History is absolutely fascinating, but,of course, real people suffer while it is the present.

James, aside from the fact the Fillmore (and Pierce after him) didn't seem to have the wisdom/guts/principles to help solve a crucial problem and instead exacerbated the situation, I was struck by how no one expected Taylor to die and Fillmore to be president. We are not in control and we must behave as if our actions and choices have consequences, as they do. That's a dichotomy with which we live.

With the huge sums allotted to my Musings research team ($0), I didn’t uncover exactly what precipitated these words. But a cursory review of Fillmore’s career did remind me that this isn’t the first time that we humans are making a mess of things. A favorite theme of science fiction literature imagines how history would have changed had certain things... Continue reading

Humility coupled with strength - wouldn't that be an amazing combination.

There we were in a Tom Thumb supermarket in Dallas, the city we were visiting last week. My husband was speaking at a number of venues, and we stopped at the supermarket, which has an expanded kosher section, to pick up a few things. The weather was hot; it was over 100°. In my view, that is pe...
I get not wanting to run with Donald Trump, but it seems as if Kasich has been on a bit of a vendetta regardless of how that might help Hillary.

I am curious if people in Ohio are praising or upset with Gov. Kasich for his anti-Trump actions and statements.

There are obviously wonderful people and terrible people in all places. But there are different cultures, some of which encourage friendliness and kindness and others that discourage it. We do get affected by where we live.

I really appreciate these words, Lora, because I am truly finding this election cycle agonizing.
What Trumps Abortion?
Wow! That was my reaction when I checked a week ago Friday morning to see if anyone had left a comment on the Musing I wrote about Ted Cruz’ speech at the Republican convention. There were more views to my page by 9 a.m. than I usually get within 24 hours. A few hours later, my husband mentioned...
How sad.

Well, that's one way to think of it.

In a weird opposing symmetry, Clinton's words are good while her actions are deplorable while Trump's words are deplorable while his actions (in terms of how he treats employees, etc.) are good.

One of the "can't vote for Hillary" ideas for me is remembering how contemptuous she was to the military when she was First Lady. I admit I trust her more with the nuclear button, but less with caring about the lives of our troops.

Whether or not what you heard was accurate, there is no question that one side of the political aisle wants to end differences between men and women and people and animals. All of those are scary.

Peter, your comment is long but I hope people read it. I really "get" those who want to sit this election out. It churns my stomach to think of voting for Trump. But, as I wrote, I think that is what I have to do. Though, this year more than any other, I think that decisions will be made at the last minute.

I have been listening to a series of podcasts about American presidents and it does remind me that God sometimes uses people in ways we don't expect. We should be storming Heaven with prayers.

Thank you for jumping in and getting into the trenches. You are right that local elections are of the utmost importance. We have awful choices facing us and the potential consequences are literally life and death for individuals and our country. One of my goals is to remaining united with those who share my values even if our conclusions differ. Thank you for giving me the benefit of the doubt.

It seems anything is possible this election, but that doesn't sound right to me.
Couldn't Happen to a Nicer Party
This past Monday, I finished writing the first part of a Musing about the dilemma of the pro-life movement in dealing with Donald Trump. I am shelving it for the moment, because I must comment on this week’s Democrat convention, which is not going exactly according to plan. (I’m writing this Tue...
