Think for Yourself

Rumblings of opposition and isolated incidents of challenges to governmental forced behavior are not enough. If personal freedoms and Constitutional protections are to prevail, we must each be courageous enough to stand and be heard for what we know to be true. Carole looks at the how these rumblings and history can provide you the incentive to find your own voice.

We've been taught that religion and science are like oil and water...they don't mix well. But a20th century thinker and author proposed otherwise. Combine the ability of everyone to access knowledge 24/7 with the power and correct usage of our minds opens doors to infinite possibilities. Carole discusses this how this unity takes place, why we need to get it right and what happens when we do.

The misinformation and disinformation that proceeded and followed both those verdicts is a perfect case against mob rule. Its why we're not a democracy and shouldn't want to be one. Carole explains.

Dennis Praeger posted about how Conservatives have more difficulty coming out of the closet than do gay people. He makes a valid point. Carole read the post then walked into a real life example of how it happens. Carole tackles why overcoming the reluctance is key to moving the culture in the right direction.

There are many narrative out there now being marketed that simply do not add up. So what are you supposed to do when being told that behaving in a certain way is in your best interest...except it sure doesn't feel that way? Carole goes down a few of those rabbit holes to expose their inconsistencies.

Alec Baldwin has given an in depth interview with George Stephanopaulos regarding the fatal shooting of his director. The problem is that Baldwin has difficulty placing responsibility where it , at least partially, belongs. What exactly is the cause of his relcutance? Carole examines that very question and its broader implications.

Everyone has a perspective and, too often, an agenda.  We see it in the news and in political ideologies. Yet, there is a bit of truth in all of it...regardless of perspective. So how do you weed out the wheat from the chaff? Carole looks at both Rolling Stone Magazine and Donald Trump's new digital media platform for the answer.

Ever wonder why some people or movements succeed and others don't? Ever wonder what fuels positive outcomes? Would you like to know and be able to affect the changes you want to see in your life and, of great importance, the future of the nation? Carole points to an unusual example of the power of certainty in terrorist recruiting practices and explores the wisdom to be gained from understanding and applying it.

If you're questioning whether the Rittenhouse trial and verdict was just, all you need do is compare and contrast it with the O.J. Simpson trial and verdict to get a clear answer. Carole examines both cases and leads you to one inescapable conclusion.

The lesson to be learned from watching the Rittenhouse trial is how our political agendas and predisposed thinking interferes with our getting at the truth. Carole discusses exactly how this happens and why its dangerous.
