    The show must go on . . . or not

    In a recent dream, I am backstage in a Broadway theater where the shows are becoming more lavish and professional, but the staff feels under pressure. I see two or three racks of costumes. I then see an actor wandering about. He is from a show that ended a long time ago. I look out at the...

    Republicans who retire, seems they are the only ones who dare criticize Trump

    Corker, Flake, seems only Republicans who are retiring will criticize Trump. Why is that? Why bother? Are they trying to be on the right side of history?

    Racial self-perceptions of whites compared to Asians

    (So I am the only one that has posted about Asian race issues???) Honestly of all racial groups, I find these two contest the most, especially these days as Asians are starting to climb the ladder of success at a rapid rate. Whites for obvious reasons (colonialism, being the majority and...

    Democrats Are No Longer the Racist Party – If They Ever Really Were

    Few things annoy me more than when people who want to stick a thumb in the eye of Democrats resort to tactics such as pointing out they founded the Ku Klux Klan or pushed through Jim Crow laws following the Civil War.

    USSR-Russia. 1988-2018. Timeline.

    Over the past 30 years, Russia has gone through a very difficult path. Few people imagine this process. And not only in the West, but many people forget this already in Russia itself. Also, very many people who knew Russia only in the 1990s, judge it for that period. In this topic, I'll try to...

    The evidence continues to pile up - how will atheists continue to deny it?

    It's getting harder and harder for atheists to keep their primitive views as archeology, science, and technology converge to prove the Bible was accurate... Whoa, Bethsaida! Archaeologists May Have Found Peter’s Home Town | The Stream
