What Does the Future Look Like in Ten Years?

Tech will rule nearly everyone all the time. Ten years isn’t a very long period of time, yet with online technology exponentially growing, it is a long time for things to change. Already, look at what we’ve seen change since the smartphones came out in 2010! In just 16 years, our country doesn’t even resemble itself from before. This is the period of time when the Z generation came of age as well, around 2020, which also has changed things drastically. In ten years (2036), the Alpha generation will be 11-26 years old, therefor coming of age. This will change things drastically again, as this generation is the first to never know a world without a smartphone. The online world, smartphones, and smart tech, is ruining people’s character. Social media, social engineering, is ruining people’s values. The younger generations mostly have bad characters and will only get worse as technology becomes even more prevalent (the destruction of the Biblical family by feminism is key for this to happe...

What Would Draining the Swamp Accomplish?

Does humanity have the solutions for the human condition? Most of us would agree that there is a “swamp” in the power structure that needs to be dealt with and removed, yet what would happen if this actually happened? The bigger question is: Can humanity solve the problem of the human condition? The human condition is a modern way of saying we are under the curse of sin and death. We are fallen and naturally disposed for destruction. If we remained fallen without being redeemed by the faith of Jesus Christ, wouldn’t removing the swamp just be a temporary solution? Wouldn’t the swamp just come back and take over power again eventually? This may sound like a black pill perspective to those looking for solutions from humans instead of God, and in truth, it is a fatalistic perspective when it comes to humans being able to solve the problems of fallen humanity. See, if somehow we were able to drain the swamp and remove the bad apples from the power structure, they would simply come back int...

What are the values driving American society?

Where do our values come from anymore? As Americans, we share similar experiences from culture, society, and geography in some measure. Many of us have been here for generations and have a historical connection as well. Even going back to where we came from before we came to America.  Most of us can talk about similar movies, television shows, music, sports, and historical events that shaped our lives.  The Holy Bible used to create the majority of the values in America, yet now I would say the majority of the values come from social media.  Social media has replaced the Holy Bible when it comes to creating the values of American society.  Even the mainstream values before the smartphone and social media on the internet were much better than what we have now.  When we watched a sitcom, a movie, or listened to a song, we learned values such as: being honest caring for family and friends being a productive member of a community helping someone in need staying true...

Writing articles on LinkedIn vs. Medium

For those of us who believe our writing is a reflection of our values and a unique expression of our souls, finding the right platform to write on is important. Of course, there are practical aspects we must consider as well, depending on the purpose and reason for the words, etc. In this respect, I want to explore the idea of writing on LinkedIn vs. Medium. For non-robot people who actually take the time to write from their hearts instead of using AI to create some “content.” AI writers may create content, but they are not writers; they are just using words (however manifested) to essentially get attention and make money. Medium is a very clean and user friendly platform for writers, and the possibility of making money there with their partner program sounds great, especially, considering the popularity of the site. Yet, I’ve found through much effort, Medium is simply an illusion for 99% of the writers that find their way there, paying their monthly dues. See, you have to now pay Med...
