I know people want him sent down, but I agree with Baroness Amos, Master of Univ, that George Abaraonye is allowed to hold abhorrent views and to express them. That is free speech. But he is not then free to be President of the Oxford Union, believing, as he does, that people

Christianity means apotheosis for all. It means that everyone will prove to have been a hero or a heroine and all will become gods.

A helpful tip for *theorizing* If you switch from “wondering” (or “noticing”) to “affirming” too quickly, you end up getting thrown back into the cycle. Every new fact creates a new world. Rumination is the key to avoiding this. Diagram from The Language of Creation

Photons are timeless entities. A single photon has the potential to generate the whole of existence, sketching out the universe without the passage of time. Should it make a second pass, it would in this way be capable of creating time. It is rather like the manner in which a CRT

It's interesting to think of the immigration issue as a matter of Xenia, the highest value of ancient Greece next to Kleos, or glory. Zeus is the god of Xenia, for Xenia is the sacred bond that holds society together, and Zeus is the highest god whose power and will unify the

Li Jingjing 李菁菁 In Europe the merchant class took over with the Industrial Revolution and the aftermath of WW1. Before this there was an aristocracy (or a learned gentry in the colonies) which while not without flaws, did not not state that profit was its master. Confucian lands were similar.

Isn’t it funny that the collapse of both broadly “socialist” as well as “conservative” cultural values in the 21st century really aligns with neither “left-wing” nor “right-wing” agents of decay in themselves, but rather with a technocratic axis directly opposed most of all to

There seems to be a sub-text to James Marriott of the Times' article "The dawn of the post-literate Society" of the present intelligentsia/elite/establishment seeking to explain to themselves why they are not being listened to anymore... See: substack.com/@joshlukerober…

Aristotle is not wrong to say "Man is a Political Animal". Followers of Christ need to care for the Polis because indeed, they are part of it. But caring for the Polis is to see that Christ's teachings, if followed, emanate out peace into its polis.. See: substack.com/@joshlukerober…

It is perilous when the woven fabric of myth spun through this ancient land of Britain returns renewed and fire forged. It challenges 'our modern idolatries, the literalness of language, our feelings of guilt; and the danger of mental passivity becoming habit.'
