Builtin Transcendent Romanticism What is God’s love, though? We’ve talked before indepth of it but what is it actually? How can one thing encompass both the vastness of all infinity and the infinitesimally temporal as singular human life? We are at the lip of precipice. Across it is a straight and narrow bridge of ice,…

Rivalry in Redemption Dearly beloved of God, on this most holy of days, I wish to discuss with you the broader theological implications of this apostolic drama, and what it all means in terms of virtue. Immediately recognisable, the dynamics between the other apostles and Paulus are reflective of the ongoing tension between our basic…

Respecting Differences Without Privileging Weakness This is not to be blamed solely directly upon minorities, but rather their status as created artificially and the only paths to rectifying it all (https://YourFight.Club/read the club is Christianity), the responsibility of which borne most by minorities by not being part of majorities instead.

Paulus and Modernity What does it mean to live with faith in a world where faith is so often misunderstood, seen as extraneous, outdated, or irrelevant? What is the purpose in all this? Let’s ask a question which lingers in the back of so many of our minds: What is the purpose of being brought…

Admissions in Practices of Psychiatry and Psychology You do not know everything. I know, big shocker, right? Even if we deny the spiritual entirely, there are still things in any given case which are unknown and, perhaps, unknowable. A person’s obsession with things to gain power may be labelled as “narcissism,” but it could also…
