The Path to True Liberty: Reason Over Rebellion

Parenting with Love and Logic by Foster Cline and Jim Fay advocates for raising responsible, self-confident children through empathetic discipline and natural consequences.

Breaking the Punishment Trap: How Punitive Mindsets Undermine Reasoned Consent

Consent is the voluntary agreement to an action or proposal, expressed either explicitly through clear statements or actions, or implicitly through conduct that reasonably indicates acceptance. In legal contexts, implied consent may be inferred from suffering (enduring without objection) or tolerance (allowing without resistance), though these must align with rational, uncoerced choice to be morally valid. Coercion is the act of compelling someone to act or agree through threats, intimidation, […] Read more »

The Great Reset as a ‘Great Reckoning’ of Accounts Due

We are individually and collectively approaching “Childhood’s End”. The Great Reset is a proposed global rebalancing of societal and economic systems, envisioned as a reckoning where individuals and institutions face accountability for their moral and transactional choices. It forces an internal confrontation with one’s ledger, aligning outcomes with the standards—reasoned or exploitative—chosen by each. Klaus Schwab’s concept of the Great Reset is a proposed global initiative to reshape societal and […] Read more »

According to Black’s Law Dictionary, 2nd Edition 1910, something that is “mandatory” is essentially a “command” (see full definition in graphic above) from one party to another. This begs the question, are commands issued from […] Read more »

Protesting is an Appeal to Author(ity)

What does protesting accomplish besides acknowledge someone else’s power and author(ity) over us? From my understanding of US history, protesting is a relatively new form of expressing one’s frustration in the hopes that those who are watching are intimidated enough to listen to our pleas, but current politicians don’t serve us, rather they serve people way scarier than us. Is it really exercising our right to free speech to go […] Read more »

Clearing up Confusion About Freewill — What is it?

It is important to clarify what freewill is and what it isn’t, since many people think it is the freedom to act, even if another person may not appreciate being on the receiving end of such behavior.  Whereas freewill is the freedom to create, ask questions, and receive anything we choose, it is not the freedom to give answers or anything else we choose to those who have not asked […] Read more »
