How and Why Do People Have a Problem with Inclusivity?

Any problem with inclusivity comes from artificial lack, scarcity, and insufficiency. It never ceases to amaze me how bent out of shape people get over inclusivity. No matter what the topic – race, gender, color, religion – you will find somebody objecting to inclusivity. Logically, and reasonably, this makes no sense at all. Why would you want to deny other people their rights, freedoms, and acts of basic human decency? In asking this question lots and lots, I believe I

Do You Have Some Days You Feel Like You’re Living a Lie?

I believe that everyone has some days like this. Who in the hell am I? That’s the question, isn’t it? Who are you? Then, because that question alone isn’t sufficient, where, how, and why also get tossed into the mix. Everyone makes choices every day. Some are small and largely automatic. Some are huge with massive effects/affects and/or consequences. Whatever the case might be, you will have both good days and bad days. Among these, some good days are life-changing,

“Us” versus “Them” Is A Lie

Unless you are living under a rock, and to some degree I kind of envy you if you are, you see the travesty happening in the United States Senate currently.  The hearings for the President’s Supreme Court nominee are a total circus.  Despite multiple accusations of sexual misconduct, there is almost an entire party, comprised

Some thoughts on True Things

Truth.  Most of you reading this know it already.  Those who most need to see this, to fundamentally understand it for what it is, probably won’t.  And even if they did, they would likely dismiss this as liberal bullshit, or some such. Mexicans are not pouring across our border as though the dam is broken.  Not by any stretch of the imagination.  Illegal immigrants are not everywhere, and taking your jobs!  This is simply a great big lie. Refugees are

What happened to Truth?

When did it become ok to lie? When did we stop caring about the truth, and accept lies? When did we stop questioning what was really happening, and accept lies without a second thought? It is to the point where I daresay it is an epidemic.  Worse than any disease, worse than any threat of war…lies have become perfectly acceptable in the reporting of the news, in political discourse, our schools, our workplaces…everywhere. Lies of every size, shape and color
