Without Firing a Shot
One of the major hindrances to the advancement of mankind is the subliminal mind control of political correctness—or PC. Once thought of as merely a method by which society could become more sensitive to the needs of others, PC has become a brainwashing technique used by those who wish to control not only our minds, but also our actions. Those who use PC in this manner prey on natural human compassions to further their own hidden agendas. They will advance their agendas by almost any means necessary, including the use of false accusations and outright lies. Far too often those agendas have very little, if anything, to do with the problems they claim to solve. In most cases, they ultimately...

Stopping School Violence
This volume presents the Bavarian roots and early story of the Dominicans of Racine, Wisconsin. It takes the reader through more than seven centuries in the monastery halls of Heilig Kreuz in Regensburg, into the lifetime of that monastery's eventual prioress, Maria Benedicta Bauer. It traces Benedicta's path through thirteen years in that office, through the turbulent events leading to her deposition and her emigration to the United States, and along her winding road to Racine with her loyal companion, Maria Thomasina Ginker. It follows the young new community through its first four difficult but hope-filled years, up to the deaths of its founders. It is a story, however, not just of the past but for the present as well.
