When we talk about light opposed to darkness, us being humanists, what is the “light” we talk about. “The shining light at the top of the hill”?. To understand this, we need to go to the root of the understanding. The root of the understanding is the Egyptian lore of the ancients. These illustrious people […]
Praying is one of those tools of the faithful, that is more than just idle past time. We do it to be heard by spirit, and to change our lives. Now, Christianity is very much on its heels in most of the Western world. I see this, and I understand, as a Jew, that this […]
Climate Change as an idea and a philosophical trend in the world stems from the battle between German and British thought in the 18´th century.

According to Iamblichus, the pupil of Plato, G-d is what is good. Then the next pertinent question is; what is good. This question is a question that we often fail to put to ourselves, and often when we do, we just imitate the ethics that is around us. Leaving us prone to manipulation. According to […]
If we are to unite the Americans around a subject, I believe, that it is pretty obvious what project that would potentially be. That of public service, humanism and the American dream. What is that? Essentially, it is about seeing the need of the society and not only our own needs. Shedding some of that […]
We Jews uphold a tradition called Purim, every once a year we celebrate the miracle of the rescue of the Jewish people around 2500 years ago. According to the story the Jewish people was held hostage in Persia by the Persian empire. A great and vast civilization at the time. According to legend the evil […]
The reason why I try to induce the Middle Eastern states to find peace, is not only because war is a truly terrible thing, but also because the advent of Israel is more than just a territory for Jews. Yes it is also the hallowed ground of Jews, sought for for thousand and thousand of […]

The Temple is where the three faiths has its core tenents praised and developed. So what is the Temple of Solomon really. The Temple that is the […]
I have often wondered about political science. It seems such a shallow endeavor. Being a polymath, I work in different sciences; politics, metaphysics, law, economy, art, business ethics, pedagogical methods, science methodology and many more. Among them a penchant for magic in a classical sense. When you read all these different subjects, you tend to […]
From time to time I fall upon songs that really makes me cry and gives me faith in a much better world. As a Jew, with all it curtails of faith in giving and not taking, seeking justice where that is ever possible. Sometimes you hear a song from a fellow Jew, that in a […]
One of the main problems of humanism, is the fact, that it does not have a clear credo. Then again, off cause enlightenment as represented by the Statue of Liberty and the Socratic fight of Voltaire, is a centrepeace idea. But the human understanding and caring of the individual does not really have a credo. […]
Having founded something, and seeing it to the end politically is pretty awesome. When I was a bit younger, it was all fire and brimstone, now I suppose that I am a bit older and more wise. The youth is a time of no compromise, while as getting older one realizes, that lifes taken is […]
