Det goda livet
Vem lever det goda livet? "A contrast" (1862) av Josef Lies (beskuren)Självförverkligande eller gemenskap, bekvämlighet eller kamp: vad är ett gott liv idag? För Aristoteles var ett liv i filosofisk kontemplation det bästa sättet att leva. Men det var förstås inte alla som kunde leva så i det gamla Grekland. Dagens människa kan, särskilt i vår del av världen, räkna med en levnadsstandard som historiskt sett varit få förunnade. Fler än någonsin kan leva längre och rikare liv än någonsin förr.

Democrats cornered as President Trump blows up their inquiry
President Trump has got the Democrats right where he always wanted them to be: cornered. While the Democrats are trying to cry foul over this, it does appear that they know they are caught and they cannot get out of their position without either a humiliation or an utter defeat.

Ukraine Smolders: Greedy “Businessman” Father and Son Team!
In recent days lots of people have been getting a crash course on what is going on in Ukraine, not because it spikes their interest but due to its nexus with the US presidential elections and how things are done by the US under the guise of helping.

Secretary of Defense, Incorporated
This article originally appeared at TruthDig. The man is so beautifully bland. In fact, I’d wager that only a tiny segment of Americans could name the current Secretary of Defense – and far fewer could pick him out of a lineup. Perhaps that’s the point. President Trump, a celebrity ham, has tired of sharing the … Continue reading "Secretary of Defense, Incorporated"

Debate: Jay Dyer Vs Scott Smith – Orthodoxy Vs Gnosticism
I was invited back to Aeon Byte for a debate – this is uploaded with express written permission. Jay Dyer and Scott Smith joined us for a civil but passionate debate.

Is the Old Testament about a good or evil god? What were the true origins of Christianity? And much more. For some reason, my vaping was as incendiary as the topics.
