Topics and truths shaping our world — from diplomacy to conflict, propaganda to peac
Man is a deeply religious creature. From the towering cathedrals of Christianity to the grand mosques of Islam, from Hindu temples echoing with chants to Buddhist monasteries tucked in the mountains — it looks like God must be clapping His hands in delight. Perfect! Humanity has remembered its Maker. People gather, sing hymns, fast, tithe,…
If you’ve ever wondered why life feels like one challenge after another, you’re not alone. From ancient scriptures to modern faiths, one theme keeps surfacing: life as a test.Not a test for God’s information—but a test for spiritual growth and character development. Funny, but I came up with this same conclusion independently, and it’s at…
Conflicts will always exist. They might come from history, identity, or security. They might erupt in our homes, at work, or on the global stage. But how we choose to see those conflicts determines whether we fuel more fire or build bridges. That’s where the idea of lenses comes in. Just as a photographer uses…

Then the fridge beeped. Not the usual “door…
Let’s face it—God seems to love to deal with us as a group hint..hint (Ice Bucket Challenge for God) He made one man (all of us at once; squeezed in Adam’s B**ls). Saw he (we ) was bored. Boom—woman. Man sinned. God cursed everyone—even snakes got the memo. Then came Noah’s time: humanity got so…

That’s when lots of nations jump in, usually over some ideal—like land, pride, or revenge. But what if I told you that World War III already happened, and nobody noticed?…
