Noted author and scholar R.R. Reno said, “From the end of the Civil War until the 1960s, the wealthiest, best educated, and most powerful Americans remained largely loyal to Christianity (but) that’s changed…” He was not alone in arguing that material attainment and ethics are often mutually exclusive. Growing rich, is demonstrably under attack, […]

This week, pompous hypocrites filled the news space with talk of war crime tribunals. In an unprecedented move, Biden ordered the U.S. to share evidence of war crimes with international courts. During the same news cycle, America and allies threatened to pull aid from Niger, the poorest country in the world, because “they” overthrew a government […]
Holier than thou, Governor Ron DeSantis told “his” government to probe whether Bud Light’s parent company breached its shareholders duties over its transgender partnership. He was speaking before Christians United for Israel, a group that fails to mention, Israel’s ethnocide of Palestinians and systemic racial violence.

Dear Executive Director, The US is the most dominant country on the planet and yet it insists on encouraging a WWIII. The military budget of America is equal to the next 20 countries combined. Saying that the rights of Ukraine must be respected and Russia has no rights, is hypocrisy. RE: Despite […]
Valentine’s Day is much like April 1st because we are fooled into becoming an unconscious part of a corporate business model. Valentine’s Day, invented by Hallmark Corporation in 1913, has become their biggest revenue generator—and the kind of barefaced consumerism that makes individuals weak and institutions powerful. It may be fine for some to need a […]

In 1492 Columbus Sailed… With a PR Team Today is Indigenous Peoples Day.
