Excerpt reading from "Screwtape Proposes a Toast", a section of the larger book "The Screwtape Letters" by C.S. Lewis.

This particular section focuses primarily on political structure through the 20th and on into the 21st century. More strictly it focuses on the corruption of "Democracy", and a lack of virtuous human behavior which is the driving force of a nation's downfall.

What factors account for an individuals various beliefs, outside of the evidence which supports their perspective on a particular issue?

Do humans have a moral right to sustain and preserve life? Examining the foundations of self-defense and the natural law of self-preservation can offer some insight. We’ll discuss what natural law is and how to St. Thomas Aquinas offers insight into how your actions in any situation can be considered either moral or immoral.

Also, we’ll go over the five precepts of legal self-defense from a jurisprudence standpoint and what practical measures you can ingrain into your day-to-day life which will allow you to positively uphold the natural law of self-preservation.

Is “Masculinity” inherently harmful? The American Psychological Association sure seems to think so. In their newly released study "Guidelines for Psychological Practice With Boys and Men” the APA outlines how masculinity in boys and men, as a whole, is harmful to society. They subsequently offer a methodology on how to combat it’s supposed harmfulness in the practice of psychology.

We will give analysis as to why masculinity in boys and men is in fact, not inherently harmful, but instead is a pivotal social tool with the true purpose of benefitting both individuals and society at large. Also, we will examine how there is not an over-abundance of masculine men in society today, but instead a severe lack of them, and how this cultural trend actually causes the real harm. Finally, we will prescribe advice to listeners how they can positively embody, embrace and promote male masculinity.
