Would We Have the Mind of God or Simulacrum? Imagine a world where every idea is a god, and every thought is a prayer. How would such a world look? It would be a place where no one could ever truly believe in anything, for every belief would be an idol: a stone carved from…

National Disgraces in Corporate Malfeasance Criminal syndicates entwine themselves with the levers of power. This is well documented throughout history, and they will use people, even their own, to acquire such power. Corporations owned by ethnic criminal syndicate, especially those not original to the nation, corrode the foundations of society. Corporations aren’t generic disinterested economic…

Holy Purpose in Division Paulus said, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Galatians 3:28).

Reconciling Objective and Subjective If Heidegger’s existentialism sought to reconcile a perspective of Christian theology with the modern age’s fragmented self, Kierkegaard took a different path, one that rejected even the idea of universal truths in favour of the individual, as the sole arbiter of meaning and beauty. Is this not a structure built on…

If we fall into the sin of ‘Amnesis,’ of forgetting the self and who we are supposed to be, then we must find a way to awaken that memory, to rediscover who we are. This is where anger comes in, especially in times of strife. For when we see lies, deception, and corruption; when we…

Forgiveness Necessary in Search of Divine Beauty; Ultimate Psychomenal Activity To grasp the significance of Magnanimity, we must delve into the very essence of our being; our connection to the divine. God’s love isn’t a distant, impersonal force; it’s an intimate, enabling gift that permeates every aspect of our lives, literally the empowerment of our…
