Can we ever arrive at the “truth?”

I recognize writing of human communication as the apex of developing culture originating and transmitting ideas…

Who will keep you safe?  Every politician now running for office claims, pretends to guarantee, that he/she will. 

For the umpteenth time, someone I revere is saying that he or she will leave Facebook.  We voluntaryists believe that is one’s choice.  But for selfish reasons, I hate to see good people go.

After a consensus that the world was topsy-turvy, the most vocal segment claimed that parents were to blame.  The implication was that earlier generations of parents were better.

A horrendous TV news link appeared in today’s Facebook news feed, “Iowa school district promises to end seclusion rooms use.”  I read the term, “seclusion” as  “solitary confinement,” and I flash back to scenes from “Cool Hand Luke.”

If you were a Christian, this question should be like “have you said your bedtime prayer?”  But if your principles come more from Voluntaryism, you will know and respond to Lysander Spooner.  If you don’t know Lysander Spooner there’s no time like the present.

Isn’t the calling of one politician a “semi-fascist,” coming from the mouth of another politician, an ultimate hypocrisy?

We seem never to learn.  We have no recognition of destructive behaviors in our species.  We don’t know the difference between right and wrong.

We cannot avoid the inevitability of Nature by passing a pitiful fiction in a legislature, which is itself a fiction.  We cannot supplant Nature by toying with language in the courts, which are themselves fictions.
