Harmful Ideas
I’m curious as to how we define right and wrong, and good and bad. I’ve been coalescing on this idea of biology being the foundation of our moral, social, interpersonal and religious definitions of good and bad and what is ‘evil’… and I believe I’ve spotted a missing cog. I cannot understand how women andContinue reading “Harmful Ideas”
Learning
Several months into my Diploma of Counselling, one key point keeps poking me. It’s a pokey point from my language coaching days in Japan and one which, to me, reveals a vital element in our psychology. I’ve researched widely: occult practices, religion, socio-political ideology, education, and psychology. One key insight of sociology is that civilisationsContinue reading “Learning”

That is, unless, of course, we fail to protect ourselves from the current and more immediate forms of totalitarianism in our midst. I simply assumed that everyone knew what secularism isContinue reading “Silly, SILLY me!”
Freedom
We have had a lot of this for decades in the West and most western countries extend this to guests and visitors as the default position. But what does ‘freedom’ mean and how do we know what its limits are? And how do we defend it? Even though our freedom in Australia was just shotContinue reading “Freedom”
Bondi
So here we have a country without leadership. For decades as successive liberal politicians have neither led nor been passive, Australia has gradually become ‘the most successful multicultural nation on Earth’. What does this mean, exactly? 100 years ago, Australia was a Christian country. Gays were an easy target for assault and murder and QueenslandContinue reading “Bondi”
