  • Equal Opportunity is Achievable… Equality, Not So Much….. July 07, 2016

    For me to think that I could do things a large man could do is insane. I could never do the work of a fire fighter. Lifting the heavy gear they use would tax my abilities beyond their capacities. Sure, there are some things I could do that they do, but not all… and to…

  • Humanism: An Ideology–Atheism: Non-Belief … June 26, 2016

    Atheism is non-belief. It asserts no beliefs. It has no philosophy. Its roots emanate from reason. It contains no morality. It asserts no morality. It is a stance based on the premise: There is no god. No, many atheists will not go that far. They simply say there is no evidence. Is negative evidence, evidence?…

  • Contagion in a Closed Room… My Skin is Crawling… May 22, 2016

    PC, politically correct and progressive demands that everyone accommodate every fetish imaginable. Society is forced to accept the presence of what amounts to a contagion… in a room of finite size… and close the door. With skin crawling, everyone looks at everyone else… those with fetishes most dangerous and strange… look all the same. Everyone…

  • Compassion and Caring Roadblock May 15, 2016

    I find myself having difficulty having compassion and caring for people who experience overdoses of illegal drugs. It troubles me that tax dollars go for treatments of these self-inflicted problems. A recent case of a heroin overdose brought this to mind. A new drug is on the market which brings these people who have overdosed…

  • Big Brother is Really Big Sister… May 8, 2016

    The Constitution says innocent until proven guilty. However, in the court of public opinion people are condemned daily, without due process… and for many that means ruined careers and lives. The stigma of such condemnation sticks like hot tar on the bottoms of your shoes. Your innocent outcome in court is rendered meaningless. This is…

  • List of the Untrustworthy … May 7, 2016

    A list of groups of individuals who I have found Untrustworthy. Conservative far right Progressive left Libertarians Green Party Politicians Feminists Humanists Part thereof, but not listed: criminals, dictators, Big business, the rich, and more. Members of those listed may not be all untrustworthy, but many have been found to be so and all should…

  • The Lone Ranter Rides Again … May 1, 2016

    Well, it’s time again. My hackles have once again been raised by that which defies the bounds of logic, that evil that permeates our time, the betrayers of half the human species… stinkin’ feminists. There once was an old woman, her name was Shulamith Firestone. She hated and spoke publicly of this hate, a hate…

  • Popular Mascots Must Die for Political Correctness Sake…. April 24, 2016

    Chief Wahoo, the mascot of the Cleveland Indians, like, forever, is going to be slowly, increment, by increment, retired. A case, I think, of a people that take themselves way too seriously. Meanwhile, another business, and yes the Cleveland Indians is just a business, Manner’s BigBoy continues to use a big fat white kid for…

  • Pacifist Illusion … April 17, 2016

    Is it possible to be a pacifist? It would seem nearly impossible to be a total pacifist. How can a pacifist be safe? In some way a pacifist would not be so, as they would have to rely on a non-pacifist to protect their safety. Could it be that pacifism cannot exist? How would a…
