Having, not exhausted, but laid a simple framework for building, my views on 'Life, the Universe, and Everything', including the role of God - The Good - which I may yet expand on, I am now free to say something more about climate. I noticed during the previous year of 2023, a change occurring in... Continue Reading →
Should I Talk About God or Climate – Part 2
This is a continuation of my previous post 'Should I Talk About God or Climate?'.โWe will begin from where we left off.โWhere I asked the question - "If the gods humans worship and serve are not really gods, but there is actually a real god (which they claimed to fully understand), who or what is that...

Should I Talk About God or Climate?
It was a toss-up tonight, as I wait for my online gaming maintenance period to end, whether I would talk about god or the climate.โWell, it turns out they are kind of related, so we'll start with god and, if I run out of things to say, I will move on to climate. I will... Continue Reading →
A Wake Up Call For 2024
Because it is a beautiful thing and perhaps nothing more than that, and because as we begin another calendar year in a world where beauty and things which stir and elevate the mind are increasingly in short supply and, incidentally, a world without any gods to guide us, we need something that may lift us...

A Christmas Reset
Coming, as it does, almost midway between the traditional settings of both Western and Orthodox Christianity of the original Christmas story, this is as good a time as it gets to raise the subject of the birth of the central figure of that religion. โ It is difficult to know just how many modern day...

A Growing Isolation
In the world of geo-politics, global trade, military muscle, cooperation rather than coercion, who is feeling themselves having been placed, by subtle but open maneuverings, somewhere on the outer fringes of world affairs?โYou got it in one!โOf course, it is none other than the global hegemon and its EU/NATO underlings.โAfter so many years, decades, perhaps...

In The Beginning…
From time to time I have endeavoured to lay out some of my personal views on the ancient history of mankind, much of which history has been coloured by the views and peculiarities of men, mostly men, whose ideas were shaped by what they understood or were told themselves by others.โIn particular, those views were,...
