“So much so did the Southern ministers stir up the people against tyranny and wickedness, that one Yankee critic said he believed that the unmitigated set of villains in the South were the Methodists Baptists, Presbyterian, and Episcopal all talking secession, drinking mean liquor, and advocating the cause of Jeff Davis and the Devil. Every one of the officers of one Texas regiment was made up entirely of Methodist ministers”

A few years ago, I wrote a book about the rise of a new educated class, the people with 60’s values and 90’s money who go to Starbucks, shop at Whole Foods and drive Volvos. A woman came up to me after one of my book talks and said, “You realize what you’re talking about is the Jews taking over America.”

My eyes bugged out, but then I realized that she was Jewish and she knew I was, too, and between us we could acknowledge there’s a lot of truth in that statement. For the Jews were the vanguard of a social movement that over the course of the 20th century transformed the American university system and the nature of the American elite.

Your biggest help to me dear reader will be to often remind me that God is Sovereign and that all that is, is because it pleases him.
