Confessions of a Conservative Atheist
The world’s only one man media empire
It’s human nature, but if you value what you have now, what you’ve seen, done, and hopefully learned, why would you want to go back to a point where you had none of it or at least less of it? Aging is a funny thing to say the least. I suspect almost all of us… Continue reading New Year’s, the mysteries of aging, and whether we’d really want to go back in time to be our younger selves
Lying about the mental state of the President and failing to discharge duties related to that mental state are both conspiracies against the United States, punishable by law, but accountability beyond jettisoning the perpetrators into political oblivion will be hard to come by. Conservatives have long been convinced that President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline… Continue reading Don’t look now, but the year is ending with the biggest political scandal in the history and no one seems to care
For billions of Christians around the world, Christmas honors the birth of their savior, Jesus Christ, who lived to die to purge humanity of original sin in the ultimate sacrifice, but what if you believe in none of that? Why is a holiday to honor what you don’t accept still so important? For billions of… Continue reading An atheist on the spirit of Christmas
There has never been a partnership like the world’s most powerful and world’s richest man seemingly attached at the hip, neither of whom can be intimidated by anyone, under any circumstances, and whom the establishment has absolutely no power or control over. I’ll admit: The sight of the world’s most powerful and world’s richest… Continue reading The Elon Musk Factor shouldn’t be underestimated in Trump’s second term
They did whatever they could, however they could, to take Trump out, and they did so in plain view of the public with a plain purpose in mind. They lost, but now we’re supposed to feel sorry for them, so sorry that they failed to achieve the goal and the person they persecuted, relentlessly, maliciously,… Continue reading The media is only getting what’s coming after losing a nine year war against the most powerful man in the known universe
The entire aside is unnecessary purely in terms of the plot, but Hamlet remains about far more than that. Perhaps, it is best seen as a vessel for ideas, where they come from, how they evolve, and where they go, and the beings that carry them. The eminent literary critic and scholar Harold Bloom once… Continue reading “We fat all creatures else to fat us, and we fat ourselves for maggots,” how Shakespeare captures both the circle of life and the futility of existence in a single sentence
President Trump has an opportunity to deliver on his promises that he didn’t have in 2016. The world is watching and more people than ever, from average Americans to world leaders and business tycoons, are rooting for him. If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em. The old expression appears to capture a willingness to embrace… Continue reading Trump’s victory has completely shifted the political and cultural landscape, making him more popular than ever
If it was up to me, health insurance companies would not continue to exist in their current form, but blaming them for all our healthcare woes is like blaming the doctor for giving you a bad diagnosis. Sometimes, the bearer of bad news is just the bearer of bad news. The cold blooded killing of… Continue reading Americans on both sides remain deeply confused about healthcare
Progressives have been quick to proclaim a not guilty verdict after a man defended passengers on a crowded subway was a travesty of justice while praising the death of the UnitedHealthcare’s CEO, abandoning all pretenses of morals in the process. Earlier this week, CNN’s Scott Jennings held up a piece of paper on Aby Phillip’s… Continue reading Progressives aren’t morally confused, they don’t have any morals at all any more beyond the pursuit of power
Since the 1960s, scientists have focused on a gene’s ability to encode proteins, resulting in a causal chain of gene expression from the initial coding in a strand of DNA, to the extraction of the code into RNA, to the formation of the protein and it’s ultimate expression in an organism. This view now appears… Continue reading A better late than never paradigm shift in molecular biology, long predicted by Richard Dawkins, happening right before our eyes
