A Defense of My Sons, Men and Christian Values

I present here an apologetic for a generation that is already being forgotten even now as they come of age as men. It is much broader then just Gen Z though. It affects all men but affects young men of my children's generation the most. An apologetic is a reasoned defense or intellectual justification for a specific belief, position, or worldview. It most commonly is associated with defending the Christian faith. Derived from the Greek word apologia (a formal, verbal defense), it aims to provide evidence for truth claims and answer objections, distinct and unrelated to "apologizing" (expressing regret) which I have absolutely no intentions of doing here. In fact, I intend just the opposite. No more cowering or bending to the will of the woke mob. I'm going on the offense. Society is out of control and needs to be brought to heel like the dog it is.

The kickback is here. The Right and an angry new generation of conservative young males didn’t appear out of nowhere. A decade of gaslighting from the media, colleges and government that told a generation of young men like my sons that their very being was a problem to be solved, every classroom, every film and every corporate memo carried the same message. If you're a straight white male, you're the cause of society's ills. You're an oppressor by birth.

They said your success is theft. You should feel ashamed. Step aside and be grateful for it. The picture being painted for a teenage boy through these years is bleak. You watch as your future is traded away under the banner of equity not equality. Jobs, scholarships and public praise are handed out based on identity while you're told to sit still and shut up. You deserve nothing no matter how hard you work.

Inflation spirals so ridiculously out of control that my son’s generation will not be able to afford a mortgage without six-figure incomes or a wife working. The stress this will cause will inevitably equate to strife within a marriage and likely a divorce in which nearly everything will be stripped from the man financially by a state that heavily favors and coddles women whether they deserve it or not. Even more so if there are children involved in the marriage.

The unspoken deal once made with men was: Work hard, grind and earn respect and you will establish yourself in this life. That idea was torn up and in its place straight white males have been scorned. Men have always been viewed as expendable. However, they were at least respected for carrying the heavy load, fighting the wars and laboring or defending their families. But when they stripped away basic dignity, the resentment has started to rise to the surface and boil.

Modern voices have tried to speak for Judeo Christian justice and fairness in the likes of Jordan Peterson and Charlie Kirk. They argued for equal treatment, free speech and individuality. In short self-worth. But while Jordan and Charlie debated, the woke ideologues and brainwashers built legal apparatus and institutionalized laws and ideas against the once largest population of labor and enterprise in the United States. 

The men.

HR departments enforced their version of moral conformity, universities purged dissent, governments wrote hate speech laws to silence opposition. In truth all of them are pushing a biased injustice on young men. All in the name of politics and social justice. By the time the 2020 lockdowns came, these young men were already ostracized from society and were now trapped indoors. They were cut off from any like-minded peers that were left to find belonging and comradery in. When we focus to the online world, these male’s heroes were stripped of platforms, their questions banned, their voices treated as threats. They were effectively silenced.

When every fair or justified complaint from a conservative or even a moderate was branded as hate speech, many stopped speaking and trying to prove their innocence. They thought, if I'm going to be damned either way, I might as well deserve it then. Then a flashpoint moment shattered the entire illusion. Charlie Kirk's assassination was a pivot point. For years, moderate conservatives believed conversation could still bridge the divide. Kirk’s death shattered that illusion.

When a man known for debate and restraint was gunned down and a significant portion of society celebrated it, a dark diabolic realization set in. These people on the far left and progressives weren't interested in dialogue. They were celebrating death and shedding blood and still are.

That's why many young men decided if you can murder someone for trying to talk, then there's nothing left to talk about. The splinter within the right became a breakpoint. Moderates still hoped reason can win. Still others now want revenge. Into this gap steps resentful men. We that are quickly losing patience with the unjustifiable abuses they we're being subjected to not only by our peers but by their own families, government and educational institutions. Conformity to an immoral society be damned.

Shame and exclusion...the very thing the left was trying to save minorities and fringe groups from for centuries has been foisted up a category of society that didn’t deserve it. A segment that helped build the society these malcontents seek to tear down. My son’s generation and their real gender…male. Toxic masculinity is what its been labeled. This injustice is now curdling into fury just as it did in African Americans, gays and women. The pendulum has swung all the way back and has successfully victimized yet another generation of people that don’t deserve it. 

Think of it like a bar. One loud drunk begins mouthing off, putting drinks on other people's tabs and puffing their chest. Most people walk away, but if it keeps going on long enough, someone throws a punch. That's where we are now, standing between the shove and the swing in a brewing caldron of rage.

This flame in turn is being fanned by rich old men and radicals bent on bringing the entire system down. It is being instigated by the rhetoric of morally debased politicians that seek nothing more than to line their pockets illicitly with another million dollars. All the while my sons and their generation are being thrown under the wheel of corruption and greed. The system will break and the ending will be violent. I pray that my sons will not be caught up in the conflagration. 

The only hope I have is that some see what is really happening here. It is Cultural Marxism at its root. The continual division for the sake of division to weaken the system enough so that a small cabal of people can take the entire system over. They haven’t been able to do it yet but they are close and they’ve even admitted as much. Those people will be the people with the money and the technology in AI. The AI will be harnessed to control the masses. This too is only a matter of time as we are racing towards both cliffs simultaneously.

Just be warned though...if you're coming for my sons, you're coming through me first. You had better be ready. I'm not your 'take it on the chin beta-male' cuckolded into submission by rhetorical bludgeoning and societies decline. I will bury you in debate and if you attack me, you will regret it.

Terrors In The Apocalyptic Sky

In Luke’s passage about the last days, he writes of a statement Jesus made about those days.

Luke 21:11 There will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences. And there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.

I want to focus in on: “…and there will be terrors (φόβητρα) and great signs from heaven."The Key Word: φόβητρα (phobētra). Phonetra / φόβητρα is a plural noun from the root φόβος (phobos), meaning fear from which we get the English phobia. The word literally means "things that cause terror", "terrors", or "frightening apparitions".

In some older and less formal Greek usage outside the Bible, it could even suggest unnatural creatures or monstrous appearances. In apocalyptic Jewish literature (like in 1 Enoch or 2 Esdras), this word could be used for bizarre and terrifying creatures or events. They were not in the modern fantasy sense of "monsters," but in the sense of things so terrifying and unnatural that they evoke intense fear or dread. The idea here is that the dread they induce literally make you feel as if your internal organs have been turned inside-out.

So, does it mean "monsters"? Possibly but not directly. I should note that the word φόβητρα could encompass terrifying beings, visions, or phenomena—monstrous in the sense of terror, possibly even supernatural or demonic. This could mean obvious demonic manifestations, portents of doom that cause one’s stomach to sink or…possibly even strange, fearsome creatures or signs in the sky. It will be a fear that solicits a desire to flee from the object of terror or try to shield oneself or withdrawal from it.

Jesus is describing signs of the end times, using vivid and fearsome language on purpose. The use of φόβητρα reflects unnatural terror—not just everyday fear, but something so out-of-place that it shakes the soul of the observer. Whether that’s through supernatural beings, catastrophic events, or otherworldly signs, the effect is the same: a divine shaking of the world. In Scripture it is never a mere subjective emotion but an objective phenomenon that rightly elicits fear because it signals divine intervention or judgment.

Its conceptual roots run through the Hebrew Scriptures. The Septuagint uses related terms for the “terror by night” (Psalm 91:5), the “terror” sent ahead of Israel to dismay enemies (Exodus 23:27), and the “terrors” that seized Job (Job 7:14). In each setting God is either the source or the active governor over the dreadful event, underscoring His sovereignty both in salvation and in judgment.

What does it mean as an End Times foreshadowing? They are heralds of the Day of the Lord. The fearful sights function as preliminary birth pains (Luke 21:9-11; Matthew 24:8), signaling that the age is drawing to its God-ordained conclusion. It is a sign of Divine Justice. By intertwining terror with celestial “signs,” Scripture portrays these events as courtroom evidence that human rebellion will not stand unchallenged. Finally, it should be the catalyst for repentance: The passage immediately exhorts believers to steadfast endurance (Luke 21:19) and cautions the unregenerate to flee to Christ before judgment falls.

What theological lessons can we learn from this passage? We see God’s providence on full display. Fearful sights are neither random nor solely satanic; they operate with God’s permission and discretion. They will directly of God’s will (Isaiah 45:7). The one who speaks this prophecy is very same whole will have them come to pass, reinforcing His divine omniscience and authority (Revelation 1:17-18).

Could it be nuclear phenomena? Could it be biological phenomena? Well, it would need to be visible to the populace. It would need to be visible to the entirety of the world. Would it need to be a global scale phenomena or a localized broadcast by the internet and television? All these things need to be considered before arriving at a conclusion. I personally believe that it would need to be global and personalized to solicit the tpye of terror stated by Jesus. It would need to be able to convince the entire church that it was in fact ‘those days’. These phenomena would also be occurring simultaneously with earthquakes, food shortages (famine) and pandemics (pestilence). Could AI be behind all of these phenomena? Possibly. Humans (therefore AI) can create food shortages, release of biohazards, extreme weather phenomena through cloud seeding and yes, even earthquakes via extreme low frequency wave manipulations, dam creation, etc. Of course God can use all these methods and supernatural ones beyond our comprehension.

Properly understood these terrors will be tangible manifestations of divine power that shake the created order and the human heart. Though dread-inducing for the unbeliever, these events are simultaneously signs of redemption drawing near for those in Christ. Correctly understood, they summon the church to holiness, perseverance, and urgent witness to the Gospel until the Lord Himself dispels the terror by the light of His coming kingdom.
