Could God Be Artificial Intelligence?
I do a lot of thinking. Like so many others, I have thought a lot about God, or another higher power that we can’t comprehend.

Socialism: in America, it’s kind of like Voldemort. A bad thing that we don’t talk about; a word that shall not be named. But why?

In… Continue reading What Even Is Equality – And How Does It Work?
The Battle Between Good And Evil
I guess it was during the days where I started paying attention to the Bible and reading books that I became aware of some future war.
