Assange and the Decline of the West

It is rather surprising to see how minor a topic the imprisonment of Julian Assange is in the daily discourses of the Anglo-American world. I write “Anglo-American” because Assange had been tried in the UK and is now readied for extradition to the United States where he will be further prosecuted for publishing highly-classified documents […]

Major Florida Superintendent, New Director Named in Ongoing Lawsuit Alleging Suspect Hiring Practices of Serial Criminal Child Abuser

As a broadcaster and writer, I always encourage my audience to focus on improving their local community rather than fixating on endless drama out of DC. So it disturbs me to discover some serious questions parents are asking in my native Polk County’s School District, one of the largest in Florida and the nation with over […]

Government Is a Mass Violence Machine

Tyranny is a habit which may be developed until at last it becomes a disease.

Evangelicals and Their Nietzschean National Security Nightmare

A Reflection on the Storytelling Crisis

The recent Star Wars trilogy, known as the sequels, roped in an estimated two billion in box offices worldwide. It is the highest-grossing trilogy of the franchise; immensely profitable, yet there is a crisis that is revealed at the center of it—a crisis that, unsurprisingly, runs deep in most artistic products of contemporary secular culture. The new Star Wars movies, […]
