Dealing with people and evangelism is often messy.” Reflecting on my conversion story, I agree that one can get their hands dirty by dealing with lost people. At the age of 19, I was a drug addict and never believed in God, and anytime my neighborhood clergyman told me about salvation, I turned him down, not once and ...

Happiness is one of the most sought, but yet one of the most elusive humankind’s wishes. The greatest thinkers in history have all touched the idea of the happiness, and possibly how to attain it. Many Buddhists will avoid any activity that causes pleasure, since they believe that positive physical sensations distract the brain from achieving meaningful moral clarity.

Whether by force of stereotypical perception or the prevalence of such interpretation I the political discourse, people have always perceived racism through the prism of economic and legal mistreatment of black people. However, people can maltreat their own fellow countrymen with skin color other than white by disposing of hazardous toxic waste in immediate proximity to their area of residence.

People with a corrupt kind of business acumen exploited the weakest segments of society in the poorest regions. Praying on a naïve boom psychology, businessmen led a devastating attack on the Midwest that ultimately was not curbed by politicians or financial institutions until the middle 1930s. New businesses exploited weak government controls and took on many of the same exploitative practices as the Robber Baron businessmen of the 19th ...

The term ‘new macho’, upon first inspection, is a paradox: the encouragement for men is to adopt their ‘new man’ status through taking “girly jobs” and “dirty diapers.” Put basically, the new macho-man should be willing to take on jobs that are considered to be traditionally feminine as the new man is not affected by what is/isn’t masculine, and is more concerned with completing the tasks as and when they need doing. For example, if the baby’s diaper needs changing then the man should do it. The concept of ‘new macho’ is not interested in traditional gender ...
