So, if you ask any two fans about the “Matrix” movies, they will have some pet ideology which they believe the movies embody. And these are deeply allegorical movies, so I’m sure you can find influence or parallel to any number of schools of thought. I have seen some interpretations which claim that the entire …

Conversations with Atheists, 26 APR 21
Them: “How many people have you personally met, who attempt to force Atheism on anyone?“ Notice the immediate restriction: my opinion is somehow only valid if I have personally met an offender. Knowledge of world history, access to verifiable stories, documentary evidence; all are somehow meant to be made irrelevant by this sentence. I originally assumed it …
Life After Goog-a-zon
This will be an updating post as I begin migrating from the various social media sites and other “tech giants” who have chosen overtly destroy the right to free speech of their members–as well as censoring the sitting President of the United States. So far, I have deleted my Twitter account with no intended replacement, …
Tenets of Modern “Skepticism”
1. All human thought is either ‘science-based’ or ‘fantasy-based’. These are mutually exclusive, and there are no other possibilities. 2. Everything I like is ‘science-based’. 3. Because it is ‘science-based’, it has value in all situations. People who believe it are smart and good. 4. Everything I don’t like is ‘fantasy-based’. 5. Because it is …

All payroll deductions are a specialized case of indentured servitude. One in which the “servant” did nothing to deserve his bondage, and will never be allowed to …

It is an interesting correlation that all of the mass shooters were “mentally ill, and victims of American mental healthcare deficiencies”… And were also liberals.
We Forget the Lessons of Vietnam
I was going to do a political cartoon about our abandonment of the Kurds turning allies against us… But it’s already happened. The whole area aligning with Syria and RUSSIA. And hundreds of ISIS prisoners have already escaped from the facilities we left behind with forces about to be wiped out by Turkey. The response …

Me (in response to a Facebook meme): Atheism is fundamentally incompatible with science. Atheist A: “I would like you to explain that. I would never say general creationism is fundamentally incompatible with science. As the existence of a God can not be proven or dis proven. I would say young earth creationism is incompatible with …
Martial Arts in the U.S. Have Changed a Lot
I was heavily involved in martial arts in the 1990s. Having had no access at all to martial arts in high school, I had just finished a career as a wrestler through the 80’s. I started training in Shotokan karate and Cheng-system taiji in college, before being introduced to wonderful style called Hwarang-Do by a …
