Freemasonry’s Ancient Origins The idea that masonic ritual originated in the 15th or 17th centuries is an ignorant one. Although it might be said that the modern freemasonry organization, as it is presently constituted, is a modern invention– much of the symbolism, ritual and tradition come from far older traditions.

LDS Articles of Faith with my commentary 1 We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.

I hope in this article to try to share some things that have helped me figure out how my religion fits with all the other religions in the world (pluralism); thoughts which have helped to break down barriers that inhibited my abilities to accept, love and learn from aspects of humanity not sharing my faith. Ideas that made me afraid […]

Apart from quotes by Joseph Smith and his pre-1844 contemporaries (quotes of which are covered in my Joseph Smith Quotes on Book of Mormon Geography article) the one of the first […]
What to do about Porn. The advent and spread of internet pornography is a radical, polarizing social experiment whose impacts are just now beginning to be widely pondered, studied, discussed and learned from. What are we to make of it? There are literally tens of millions of people out there dealing with the effects of […]

That cosmic bodies, humans, and atoms all share a “fractal” (ie. microcosmic) relationship and thus share inherent similarities and adhere to similar physical laws. Atomic and cosmic bonding, […]
