“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.”
The storms that had rocked the boats so badly, and had filled their holds with the sickness and misery of wretched troopers and sailors, had finally abated. The weather had cleared at least enough to permit the operation to proceed. And so, the great invasion fleet...
I am very pleased to present another guest post from our good friend, Dawn Pine, aka The Male Brain, over in Israel. This week’s post is a longer, thoughtful piece on The Art of Loving by Erich Fromm, and the lessons that our esteemed guest took from it. I am...
There is absolutely nothing original about comparing the very visible and observable decline of the West, with the decline and fall of the Roman Empire. I am certainly not the first to make that comparison. Assuredly I will not be the last. Unoriginal though such...

Our good friend Dawn Pine noticed that I’m rather busy these days and in dire need of some R&R, and very kindly wrote in with a guest post for The Agoge series. This post is all about getting your butt into gear so that you can go and get what you want in...
A very great deal of ink has been spilled about the latest round of stupidity from Harry and the Half-Blood Princess. Quite a few genuinely hilarious memes have come out of it all too. You saw many of them in a recent Great Mondaydact Browser Crusher. I have no...
