If one looks at the US, one can say that many of the founders were of Anglo stock and were either a variant of English Protestant Christian persuasions, sometimes known under the title of “mainline Protestant”, or a sort of agnosticism under an equally diverse list of names. But whatever one was, the fact is […]
If the Democrats are the “real deal”, then then Republicans are the same thing, just a watered-down version of them. This is an observation that many political observers have made throughout the years, and while it is certainly not an “official” position, it is based on clearly documented and consistent themes. The Democrat Party in […]
Voting is one of those activities that draw the attention of the public because whether one believes in it as an efficacious tool of expressing political will or not, the vote is one way that binds all citizens to voluntary participation in the life of their nation. Voting is traditionally a practice reserved for adults, […]

I do not believe I have ever covered the issue in writing, but from reading about trends in the fields of parenting, adoption, IVF, and essentially a modern and new form of trafficking in children, that in the name of ‘helping’ families, it would lead to serious abuses. One of the most obvious and blatant […]
Wars fought over resources are always a constant fact of human history. However, while many people think of “resources” such as farmland, mines, or wealth (gold), there is one commodity that is even more important than all of these- water -because without this simple thing that is so hard to acquire at times, entire civilizations […]
One may remember the year 2000, where during that presidential election, amid chaos and confusion, Florida was the ‘swing state’ that swung the election from Al Gore to George W. Bush. Now there are still a LOT of questions about that election and the ‘vote counts’ that went on, and with good reason. But speculation […]
One of the trends that I have pointed out to watch for the future is suicide rates. Most of the time I have discussed this in the context of the Millennial women, since owing to the fact that many are not married, nor having children, nor have any plans of having children in the future, […]
Yesterday, I made the point that California is fleeing wildfires, and some of these people to other states as part of a large migration, since political conditions as well as climate change (in the non-political sense) cause people to settle into different areas. I noted how this would have major impacts on politics as well […]
For a long time, one of the hallmark points made by the civil rights movement and other anti-racism advocates- and a correct point, I should add -is the disparity of goods and services that was offered to certain races versus other ones.

Wildfires are a well-known problem in California. However, it seems that with each year, the wildfires are getting worse. There may be truth to this, as the AP reports that the current round of California wildfires are some of the worse on record and continue to sweep the state. When it comes to California wildfires, […]
The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) poses a very serious set of consequences for the world, as it contains within it the seed to potentially alter forever the means of human interactions, economics, and more fundamentally speaking, what it means to be a human and the relationship of man to robotics. There have been many […]
There is always a lot of controversy it seems around the Trump administration, but Axios reports that a new book by Robert Woodward has new allegations reporting in interviews that major figures in the Trump administration have deep suspicions of him, including ties to Russia and to other nations. Former director of national intelligence Dan […]
The situation of jobs today in the US is serious issue, for amid changes taking place caused by COVID-19, there are a lot of people out of work and still more at a serious risk of losing their jobs. However, there have been a lot of people who are trying to say that things are […]
