About - Contra Mordor

Actually I am a Christian, and indeed a Roman Catholic, so that I do not expect “history” to be anything but a “long defeat”—though it contains… some samples or glimpses of final victory. – J.R.R. Tolkien

-Classical/Augustinian Christian— Reformed Catholic with doctrinal/historical sympathies in Anglicanism; Amillennial in the theme of historical development. Perpetually unsettled by Modernist Evangelicalism.

-American Paleoconservative; influenced heavily by the Counter Neo-Conservative front waged by Chronicles Magazine, Paul Gottfried, Sam Francis, Mel Bradford, during the Reagan and Bush years. Currently writing a biography of, and editing a festschrift for, Paul Gottfried.

-Reactionary/Traditionalist Rightist; lover of Old Europe and its history, sentimentally and instinctually a Southern-style, regionalist American.

-Agrarian/Distributist critic of modernity’s predominant political systems: industrial/financial capitalism and communism

-Fascinated by historical revisionism, especially in the 20th century.
