I've seen this question posed a fair bit lately. The frequency of the question has certainly increased after the publication of Steven Hawking's latest book The Grand Design where, on the first page, you see the words written "philosophy is dead". But even before this book I often heard the...

Have you ever seen a conservative trying to be funny? From what I've seen it is often a sad state of affairs. The word 'lame' comes mind. there seems to be very little grasp on humour, or satire for that matter. This is a broad generalization, but I'm curious to see what responses people...

I don't know why I expend so much time and mental energy on following, and forming opinions on, world events. I've been listening and following the news too much lately, and it is battering down my optimism! The ultimate solutions to our most pressing problems are likely decades or centuries...

Maybe it's a little reactionary to start questioning the use of nuclear power at this point. But it does strike me as a good question to grapple with. Should we not be placing all of our ingenuity and innovative energy into creating cheap energy alternatives to oil and nuclear power? The former...

I was skimming through a few threads here and noticed one comment about Pentecostalism being a "false teaching" Now, I have no wish to defend this denomination entirely. I was raised pentecostal and I'm all too aware of the kinds of neuroses that upbringing can impart on an individual. A quick...

Last night I dreamt that I smoked crack. Not "blue crack"...but real crack. It was quite the time we had in my dream, until everybody started laughing at me because I could not smoke crack right. Eventually the night descends into an oblivion of debauchery and arrests.
