Why You Should Listen:
Because Prometheus is still chained—and you might be holding the fire he gave. This essay isn’t just a myth retold. It’s a mirror held up to now. If you’ve ever warned the room and been ignored, ever paid the price for seeing clearly, or ever felt the weight of knowing too soon—this one is for you. Come for the Greek tragedy, stay for the truth we keep punishing.

Why You Should Read This

Because we’re not just living in an age of collapse—we’re living in an age of disconnection. Not only from institutions or each other, but from meaning itself.

Because too many are telling us to choose: soul or science, ritual or reason, belief or evidence—as if wholeness demands allegiance to only half the truth.

Because the world is coming apart precisely where our moral architecture used to hold—and we need more than slogans, soundbites, or sterile debates to rebuild it.

This piece is for anyone who has knelt in pews and in protests. For those who quote Baldwin and the Beatitudes in the same breath. For the hospice nurse who sings Psalm 23 without needing to prove a Shepherd. For the atheist who still builds the ramp. For the believer who still asks questions. For the doubter who still loves deeply.

It’s not a call to compromise—it’s a call to courage. To moral reintegration. To a sacred alliance between the sacred and the rational.

Because the truth is: cruelty is organizing. Disinformation is winning. And if goodness is to survive, it must unify its language, stand its ground, and refuse to let compassion become a casualty of division.

Read this if you're tired of false choices.
 Read this if you're aching to feel whole.
 Read this if you're ready for a deeper kind of covenant—one that remembers what it means to be human.

Why You Should Listen

Because the country you were told to believe in may never have believed in you.
Because the promise you were raised on might have been someone else’s inheritance.

Because pretending everything’s fine is how we got here.

Because democracy isn’t a souvenir—it’s a practice.
And right now, it’s on life support.

Because the story we’ve been told about America—the myth of unity, the holiness of the Constitution, the inevitability of progress—was never the whole story. It was edited. Cleaned. Sanitized for comfort.

Because truth-telling isn’t treason.
And asking for justice isn’t asking too much.

Because the old blueprints were rigged.
Because the old scripts were cast without us.
Because waiting has never been enough.

Because history doesn’t just happen—it’s authored.
And if we don’t pick up the pen, someone else will.

Because the future is still unwritten.
And it’s ours to claim.

In a world that rewards noise, cruelty, and numbness, this essay is a quiet call to sacred defiance. The Liturgy of Refusal isn’t about grand gestures—it’s about daily acts that keep your soul intact when the culture asks you to sell it. If you're tired, heartbroken, or quietly outraged, this is your reminder: resistance can be small, holy, and deeply human.

Why You Should Listen

Because our highest court is starting to sound less like a pillar of democracy and more like a mystic riddle machine.

Because if you’ve ever squinted at a Supreme Court ruling and thought, “Wait… did they just legalize that or vaporize it?”—you’re not alone.

This essay pulls back the velvet curtain (and the smoke machine) on how judicial ambiguity has become a tool of power. It compares today’s cryptic rulings to the ancient Oracle of Delphi—only instead of inhaling volcanic fumes, our justices are channeling the Founders through a Ouija board.

With biting humor, mythic parallels, and a dash of righteous fire, Trial by Oracle makes the case that the real danger isn’t just what the Court decides—but how vaguely it does so.

It’s funny. It’s furious. It’s unsettling.
And it just might help you make sense of the nonsense.

If you've ever felt a quiet grief for the country you thought you knew—if you're struggling to reconcile the ideals you were taught with the reality you see—this essay is for you. It doesn’t offer platitudes or easy hope. Instead, it offers something more honest: a clear-eyed look at the myth of American unity, the cost of pretending, and the quiet, necessary work of becoming something truer. It’s not just a critique—it’s a moral invitation to mourn, to reckon, and to help build a future worthy of belief.

Because we’re all looking for something solid to stand on—and maybe, just maybe, it isn’t one side of the divide but the bridge between them.

This essay is a conversation between two ancient instincts: the longing for something sacred and the determination to face life with clear-eyed reason. It's for the spiritual and the secular alike—those who pray and those who ponder, who kneel before mystery or marvel at a nebula.

You’ll meet Abraham Joshua Heschel and Carl Sagan—two men who never met, but whose lives echo one another in moral clarity, awe, and courage. You’ll find not a debate, but a harmony. Not a sermon, but an invitation. Not certainty, but meaning.

If you’ve ever wondered whether faith and logic can live in the same heart, this is your field guide.

Read it for the flame. Stay for the light.

Because the GOP and their “Big Beautiful Bill" want you to feel powerless—and that’s precisely when you must remember your power.

This essay is not a think piece. It’s a warning flare. It’s what happens when a lifetime of service collides with the brute spectacle of a government punching down. What you’ll find here isn’t decorum. It’s defiance.

The GOP just shoved a flaming dagger of a bill through the heart of the Republic—and called it policy. But this is no bill. It’s a ritual of domination. A test to see how far they can go before we break.

This is my answer.

If you’ve ever felt like shouting into the void—read this.
If you’ve been wondering whether anyone else sees the game being rigged in real time—read this.
If you need a voice to match the fire in your gut—read this.

Then send it to someone who still believes this is normal.

This essay doesn’t ask for permission. It demands attention—and maybe even a little rebellion.

Because this isn’t just satire—it’s survival instinct with a microphone.

Christian National Lampoon: Vacationing in the Theocracy You Never Asked For takes you on a blistering, bitingly funny tour through the rising movement that wants to turn your democracy into a sanctuary city for spiritual authoritarianism. We expose the Christian Nationalist playbook using laughter as a weapon, scripture as theater, and policy as prophecy.

You’ll meet the people, trace the money, map the takeover—and still laugh hard enough to stay human.

If you’ve ever felt the creeping dread that some Americans want to swap the Bill of Rights for the Book of Revelation, this episode is your field guide and fire alarm. It’s part road trip comedy, part Orwellian travel advisory, and all protest.

Listen to laugh. Stay to fight. Pray they don’t get your school board before you do.

We’re opening up a cold one.
And by that, I mean a political party that’s been dead for decades.
