  • Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” – Religion and Politics

    Most who know me are well aware that Christmas as celebrated is not an important thing to me. Visiting family can be a fun and exciting time for many. Getting gifts is a desirable thing for most, particularly young, people. Where I’m not inherently against either thing, I do consider the timing of at least […]

  • Free Isn’t Free – Religion and Politics

    I have to acknowledge that the subject about which I’m going to speak in this article is one that has been addressed by thousands of people in oh-so-many ways. I further must make it clear that likely none of my expression will not have been made by at least one or more of the people […]

  • Yes, That’s “Racism” Too – Religion and Politics

    If you’ve read much of what I’ve written, and most particularly if you’ve read anything I’ve written on the concept of “racism,” you’ve probably come across a disclaimer similar to the one I’m about to write. In essence, I don’t really believe in the idea of racism. This is because I consider race among humans […]

  • If Only I Were… – Religion and Politics

    I wonder how many older people, when they were younger, did not have the thought, “If I were rich, the world would be a better place.” I’m not saying that’s exactly what they would have thought; nor am I telling you that’s exactly what I thought. What I am  saying is that just about everybody […]

  • Love Versus… Everything Else – Religion and Politics

    I can’t think of any subject about which I both feel myself less qualified to speak and less able to fully understand than the subject of love. Sadly, love is—at least to me—one of those things about which one can say, “I may not be able to tell you what love is, but I can […]

  • That’s a Mountain, I’m a Tree – Religion and Politics

    I can’t tell you just how many people have complained about others expressing their beliefs, but if I had to guess, I would account the number of those who have to be larger than those who haven’t. There are a good many things folks believe with which I disagree, but if the individuals in question […]

  • The Spectrum and Levels – Autism

    It’s always hard to recall exactly when and where you have said what, and to whom. On top of that, even if you’ve said something multiple times, it’s entirely possible that folks have missed the expression of it, either by simply overlooking it, or because they haven’t read, seen or heard what you’ve said. One […]

  • Changing Feet – Bullying – Religion and Politics

    One of the obvious and at times, somewhat unfortunate realities of life—particularly the life of younger folks, though it happens to older ones as well—is bullying. I believe I have said it before, but I want to make sure to do so now. Bullying will never go away. That’s not to say we should ignore […]

  • Space, the Final Frontier – Religion and Politics

    Perhaps one of the funnier things I have seen recently, is the assertion that man will find his or her way into space and that this will help to solve various problems that exist here on our home planet. I wanted to take just a moment to address why such an idea is not particularly […]

  • Helping the Needy

    One of the saddest realities of the modern day, is the strong difference of opinion on a variety of fronts, between people who are “intended to be” united. An example of this comes to mind, in the form of a “reply” to a comment I made on a post on social media that was intended […]
