Our Culture and Christ: A Klavan on The Culture Christmas Blog

December 23, 2012 Culture

All art — all storytelling, picture-making, music — is an attempt to record and communicate the experience of being human. There are no words for this experience.

October 11, 2010 Culture

Last week, my friend John Nolte of Big Hollywood fame did one of his classic take-downs of an hysterical leftist reviewer, some doof who went ape over the new family film Secretariat.  To read the fearsome Noltenator at his Texas Chainsaw best, go here. But what struck me most–moved me most–about this excellent post was [...]

Celebrating The Good Stuff

April 12, 2010 Culture
