  • COVID-19 and Comorbidities – Religion and Politics

    So where that six percent number isn’t indicative of all people for whom COVID-19 was even the primary cause of mortality, it’s still a helpful indicator when determining the best course of action going forward. What should that look like? I’m no expert, and my answer is strictly based on how things look to me…

  • Catching More Flies – Religion and Politics

    Dr Martin Luther King Jr made it his business to be non-violent. He was kind and polite. That doesn’t mean he sacrificed his principles or beliefs on the altar of friendliness. That man was willing to die for what he believed; in fact, it’s entirely correct to argue that’s exactly what he did. Just remember…

  • Alert Systems – Religion and Politics

    I get wanting to have various services that keep people up to speed on impending issues and dangers. Overall though, I truly question whether they do more harm than good. I’m no genius, as such I’m not sure what can be done to make them more relevant, but it seems to me, this is something…

  • Sex Trafficking Versus Sexual Abuse – Religion And Politics

    So remember, those working to end human trafficking aren’t belittling or disparaging those seeking to end domestic abuse or sexual abuse. I don’t expect those trying to stop domestic or sexual abuse are doing likewise when it comes to human trafficking. A person has only so much capacity, he or she must spend his or…

  • LinkedIn And Politics – Religion and Politics

    Do politics belong on LinkedIn and other social media? I contend they do. As with any subject though, the discussion of things in that strata should be respectful and civil. If you cannot manage that, perhaps you shouldn’t voice your opinion.

  • The How’s Important – Religion and Politics

    Here’s the point of this piece though. One of the absolute most important abilities you’ll ever acquire is that of getting some message across to others without boring them to tears or leaving them bewildered as to what you had in mind to purvey. If you can manage that, many other parts of life will…

  • Reasonable Force – Religion and Politics

    In your official capacity, you may think it unreasonable to deploy force against rioters and looters. If reasonable force is used though, you might very literally save lives. Nobody’s asking you to shoot rioters and looters on sight even though they’re in breach of law. People just want you to employ reasonable force. If it’s…

  • Due Process – Religion and Politics

    Maybe a person acts in a way that society at large considers worthy of that worst of all penalties, execution. Perhaps there are people who would wish to see him rapidly enter his final resting place. The simplest, most telling question is, “What if you’re wrong?” What if he’s innocent? This applies to less serious…

  • Opposing Views – Religion and Politics

    In the end, the point of this little piece is to indicate that disagreement and argument are not inherently evil or problematic things. They can even be considered necessary ones. Evolution of ideas, even for a single individual is largely predicated on one’s ability to have contentious discourse with others. Arguing that this is some…

  • The Cost of Mayhem – Religion and Politics

    If you think you’re doing anybody a favor by rioting, looting and, destruction, you’re not just lying to yourself, you’re harming people about whom you claim to care in the process. To say nothing of others you’ve never even met, who might seek to be sympathetic to your plight, were it not for your untoward…
