Previous: Solzhenitsyn's Warning About Communism Applies To Today's Culture War Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote The Gulag Archipelago, One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich after serving in Stalin's gulag due to criticizing the Soviet leadership's actions during World War 2.

Q: How odd would it be to turn on the TV and see a show about child birth with an all male panel? A: About as odd as a program about sports where all the pundits are women.

The historian Edward Gibbon, in his monumental Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, discourses at length in the second volume of his history on the corruption of the Roman army's fighting abilities during the principate of Constantine (A.D. 306-337).

Commands became spoils to be handed out to political favorites, rather than offices earned through combat experience.

Return Of Kings has been open for 27 months. What started out as a modest group blog now reaches 1 million people every month and is on its way to becoming an alternative news source for men.

At the same time, we just got a rash of complaints when we allowed an “internet marketer” to sponsor our pages, saying that it damages our reputation (I don't wholly disagree on this point). We're caught between a Read More
