Sacred Marriage, Esther; Rainbow Baseball; Ashamed of God

The Time Dividend: Don’t Cash Those Checks Yet
There’s no mistaking the power of artificial intelligence. I’ve seen it at work and count me among the impressed. That said, as is our wont, I’m afraid we might have gotten a bit ahead of ourselves, whether we are Chicken … Continue reading
Why is the government so consistently dishonest?
Because such is conducive to maintaining and growing power. If justice is the goal, honesty is a necessity. If power is the goal, honesty is a hindrance. I remember it like it was yesterday, my father telling me the story … Continue reading
