…unless we grasp this fact, we will never respond effectively. Consider the latest shooting in San Bernardino, CA. Right now, from the available evidence, it looks like it was probably Islamic-inspired. Now there’s a surprise! Shooter Syed Rizwan Farook had become increasingly radicalized, CNN reports, and had been in touch by phone and via social media with more than one international terrorism subject under investigation by the FBI. No, we are no… Continue reading
…disappear. Don’t fall for false alternatives. Years ago, a man told me he really wanted to become a presidential press secretary. And if that didn’t happen, he would have to end up as a greeter for Walmart. After I picked myself up off the floor, I realized this guy genuinely believed that there was simply nothing in between. In reality, there’s everything in between. All he had to do was to take off his blinders. Beware the foolish false alterna… Continue reading

It’s noteworthy that Hart’s fellow comedian Ellen DeGeneres — who’s usually politically correct and is a lesbian herself — stood up for Hart in this instance. I used to love Ellen DeGeneres’ form of humor, but once she started taking up for Obama and all his… Continue reading
…e is representative of emotion without reference to reason. Somehow, the incomplete halves are to come together to form a perfect union, a state of perfection rarely, if ever, to be found. (Interestingly, I’ve noticed the same dynamic at work in same-sex romantic relationships, where two partners similarly recreate the male-female dichotomy by this standard of the emotion-reason dichotomy.) From this traditional yet still rather prevalent mindset,… Continue reading
…ake it on? People talk about deliberately and regularly going out of their comfort zones — rationally, of course, when something makes sense and when it really has the possibility of advancing your life in some way. This is a good strategy. “Getting out my comfort zone” is a recipe for confronting your irrational fears deliberately, and actually growing and learning throughout all of life.

No, that’s not what concerns the U.N. in this report. From b… Continue reading
