Democracy?

In the past, the youth sang songs of protest. Today all we get is vapid pop songs. I guess we have to leave it up to the old guys to wake us up.



Why are we willing to give up our freedom to any totalitarian who promises comfort even though we know deep down it is a lie?

To be clear: Atheism is not a disbelief in gods or a denial of gods; it is a lack of belief in gods.

Not believing isn't the same as believing not.

I must assume that knowing is better than not knowing, venturing than not venturing; and that magic and illusion, however rich, however alluring, ultimately weaken the human spirit.

Democrats were highly successful at preventing forensics experts from examining Dominion voting machines after the 2020 election until after election workers had wiped them clean of 2020 evidence. Nevertheless, we still have incontrovertible evidence of a far left democrat supporting Dominion official promising to prevent Trump from getting elected in 2020.
