[January 28, 2025] The brilliance of the Bible in its wisdom is beyond mind-blowing. Dennis Prager tells us of one of the most profound passages in the Book that gives us crucial advice that we should – counterintuitively – listen to hypocrites.

[January 26, 2025] Machiavellianism is a personality trait that we find common in U.S. military leaders.

[October 8, 2024] On occasion, I run across someone with the good sense and moral courage to stand up and tell the truth.
