Why I Half Believe In God

It’s one thing to gaze sanctimoniously over a church hymnal and speak about the reality of God, but its entirely another thing to look at pictures of flat bed trucks piled high with the mud caked, silent, naked bodies of children, and ask the question.

Conspiracy to Kill Your Brain

What do we really know? Do we understand how money really works?  Do we really understand how our government is run?  Do we really know what’s in the food we are eating?  Do we even fully understand all the religious rituals we follow and where they came from? My brother and I were having a [...]
