I'm sure that many of you are deep into using AI to assist in both work and leisure tasks. Others may not yet have ventured into these waters at all. Either way, I hope you will read through this post, to see Claude AI's comprehensive answers two of my prompts on how...
Progressives
Trumped at the Midterms?
I’m generally a conservative-libertarian person of faith. On most issues you’ll find me in the middle of a square roughly defined by Ronald Reagan, Thomas Sowell, Charlie Kirk and Michael Youssef. I was so energized after the 2024 election, as were most friends and...
Engage, Don’t Demonize
I had lunch with a good friend this week, and we lamented the demonization today of almost every public figure by some group or other public figure. Since I’ve written two novels about demons and spiritual warfare, with the second, Nation On The Edge, set in...
The Common Sense Vote
It’s twelve days before the 2024 Presidential election, so as I write this monthly post I have no idea who the winner will be. But if Donald Trump is elected, itwill be mostly because he has a huge, loyal following, but in part because many Democratic policies of the...
Jim Crow–Ukraine–DEI–Woke
Let me stipulate up front that this post contains several generalizations which I know do not apply to everyone in every case described. But focus with me on the larger picture, and I hope you will find the generalizations to be useful, as well as the many embedded...

Speaking Simple Truth to Obvious Lies
I’m glad to be back after a six-month pause. During the break I finished and published my fourth novel, Nation On The Edge, which I hope you’ll read. And I released the audio version of On The Edge, read remarkably well by a computer! Old dog, new tricks. Pause or...
What is Woke?
A recent email to me from a frequent correspondent right after the SVB/Signature bank failures criticized some conservative news sources for blaming the banks’ problems on being “woke.” And he asked what does being woke even mean? He wrote: “Being ‘woke’ doesn’t mean...
Policies Matter
This month, just before the Midterm Elections, I’m focused on the perfect storm created by the intersection of three disastrous forces running amok in our nation today. I wrote about the first force back in 2013, in “What We Don’t See is Killing Us”—I hope you will...
Solutions Too Simple to Work?
This month I have another Summer Quick-Post on a few problems, the solutions to which seem so obvious to me that either I am a simpleton, or the ruling class makes everything far too complicated (to try to stay in power?). Here they are: 1.There are millions of people...
