Where ever someone tries to state that morality is objective or subjective, I wonder at the context by which they make their claims. Is good real? Is bad factual? Most arguments I’ve come across grasp either at secular law or the evolving morality of a religion, neither of which are defined in clear terms. TheContinue reading “Moral Relativism”

The Comfort Game
Victims come in two forms: real and fake. The actual victims of abuse, public humiliation, assault and marginalisation are easy to spot with a particular look and manner, and responses which are not conducive to self care. Fake victims, and Western culture is full of them, are easy to spot with their hyper vigilance directedContinue reading “The Comfort Game”

Testosterone vs Oestrogen
1. Having experienced matriarchies, I can no longer support this element of feminism. 2. I can only be a feminist if I ignore the contributions of men. 3. Trans activists and their enablers want to erase me from existence just like the keenly religious, the hyper conservative, and that political group from Germany in theContinue reading “Testosterone vs Oestrogen”

When is violence morally acceptable? The Original Series gave way to a cartoon series then a series of movies. The NextContinue reading “Pfffffffff….”

Educational institutions which do not teach their staff the differences in teaching or in learning, nor the differences between childhood education and adult learning. Counselling students who are not vetted by counselling or counsellors but merely learn about counselling. Jobs which require communication skills but people running the course have not listened to themselves communicate.Continue reading “Dickhead”
Who’s in Charge?
Domination in a social setting seems quite important to many people, according to my observations. In Japanese culture, dominance is assigned according to an hierarchy of gender, age, position, class, income and race. In Australian culture, however, the boundaries are not just blurred, but fluid. This creates a complex of problems. Not only are interactionsContinue reading “Who’s in Charge?”

The Rebels
They were fighting against tyranny, of course. Clear lines and imaginative set-ups and pay-offs, the original trilogy of Star Wars was great story telling. Good versus Evil is easy to understand. The how and why made sense for each character, each of whom went through personalised character arcs. While Good vs Evil is still theContinue reading “The Rebels”
Spirituality
The Meaning of Life People are not wearing enough hats. Matter is energy. In the universe, there are many energy fields which we cannot normally perceive. Some energies have a spiritual source which act upon a person’s soul. However, this soul does not exist ab initio as orthodox Christianity teaches, it has to be broughtContinue reading “Spirituality”
