“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

Mondays. They are THE SUCK. That, of course, is why we have the Great Mondaydact Browser Buster. And this week’s theme is a bit unusual. At the suggestion of our good friend, The Male Brain, the theme is all about the Jewish festival of Shavuot, which we...

Didactic Mind, Ep 79: The Izzlamic Dance

This week’s podcast is quite a bit longer than usual, because it goes DEEP into the subject of historical criticism of Islam. I unpack much of the latest evidence that we have about the very obscure origins of Islam. Following the data and evidence that Dr. Jay...

Sunday Scripture: The Coming of the Holy Spirit

2 When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. 3 And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and...

Guest Post: When It Rains, It Pours by The Male Brain

The other day, I asked our good friend, Dawn Pine, to provide his perspective on the current situation in Israel. If you haven’t been keeping up with the news – and, given what a crazy world we live in, I don’t blame you at all if you have simply...

Friday T&A: Stagflation Edition

Damn, I’m glad this week is finally over. I’ve spent the last several days up to my eyeballs in financial data, ratio analysis, and industry reports, and I don’t mind admitting that I’m quite exhausted. It will be good to relax for a little...

Monday morning Hannibal planning

OFMIM, AGAIN. Nonetheless, we soldier on – or, in my case, shuffle half-asleep onto a Zoom call. Nonetheless, the Great Mondaydact Browser Smasher is here to make it all a bit more bearable. Last week we featured one of the greatest TV villains ever, from the...

Didactic Mind, Ep 78: How to Start Your Own Heresy

We’re back this week with a new episode of Didactic Mind, after a week off. Today I discuss the ways in which questioning the standard “Narrative” will get you labelled as a heretic, and why that is no bad thing. I talk about how many of the...

Sunday Scripture: Orderly Worship

26 What then, brothers? When you come together, each one has a hymn, a lesson, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Let all things be done for building up. 27 If any speak in a tongue, let there be only two or at most three, and each in turn, and let someone...
