A Response in Refutation of the Cited Story On The Second Amendment
I’d just like to say that this person’s arguments in the listed article, are the very definition of clueless for the most part. By way of example, they talk about the idea of “well regulated” as though it was intended to discuss gun ownership, not the militia. Well regulated was intended to describe the militia,…

So this is Fifty Four
I hope it’s true for everybody, age aside, that they learn a little more—become a little wiser and a little bit more able to deal with their respective world—on a daily basis. I’ve never been one to celebrate my own birthday, and I’m not intending to “break that trend” today. Rather than throwing confetti or…

Where And Why Politics And Christianity Intersect
Perhaps in a perfect world, there would never be a need to discuss politics among Christians or between Christians and unbelievers. Maybe that’s not the case, but whether or not it is, such a need assuredly exists. The funny little reality is, my support for a particular political perspective comes out of my belief in…

On Sanity
Much has been made by a great many people—myself included—about the need for standards. So significant is this need, that it is hard to imagine a life without them existing. In order to distinguish between righteousness and unrighteousness, rectitude and error, suitability for purpose or lack thereof and so many more things, it is necessary…

On the First Amendment to the United States Constitution
I have yet to meet an individual who, on looking at it, would state that the United States Constitution was not a pretty amazing piece of work. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure such people exist. I’m simply saying that, either they have chosen to bite their collective tongues when around me, or I have…

On Being Versus Doing And Discrimination
Perhaps by this point in my life, I should be used to the idea that a good many people tend to have a very limited “depth of consideration” when looking at almost everything found in the World about them. This certainly seems to be quite true when considering the idea of discrimination. One of the…

On Race
One of the most important things I need to do in life is also one of the things I least like doing. I’m getting better at doing it, I think, both in accepting the need for it, and being willing to allow for it to happen. What is that thing? It is the willingness to…

On the Concept of Wage Slavery
Having recently heard the term “wage slavery” used by someone on social media—who said it and on what social media is pretty much beside the point—I came to the conclusion I had to write an article on the subject. The more I considered the concept, the more I realized that it was a sort of…

On Equality
One reality of life is that generalization is a necessity. If we cannot compare two things and talk about how they are alike and different, it becomes more than a little difficult to learn “new” things. That having been said, an important realization is that, while two things may have similarities that make it possible…

Choice, Where the Rubber Meets the Road
It turns out that some of the most difficult things to discuss are the most worthwhile. Sometimes that’s because of the complexity involved, sometimes not. On the present subject, in truth, though there appears to be the result of a high level of complexity, I don’t believe there really is a great deal of difficulty…
