Life Update: Reading Two Books at a Time was a Huge Mistake, Writing has Slowed to a Snail’s Pace, and Thoughts on Contemporary Life
Earlier this year, I was hoping to get through more books to read. I tried reading a chapter of Haught’s book and Stanton’s book each day prior to reviewing them. Long story short, it burned me out far more than I expected. I had assumed the burn out I was feeling would go away, but … Continue reading Life Update: Reading Two Books at a Time was a Huge Mistake, Writing has Slowed to a Snail’s Pace, and Thoughts on Contemporary Life

American Exceptionalism Strikes Back: COVID-19 Cases Rise Back Up to Previous Lockdown Levels
As expected of the exceptional nature of egregious US stupidity, the preventable COVID-19 infection is now back to lockdown levels as of two days ago and reached approximately over 100,000 cases yesterday because approximately 18 million Americans refuse to get vaccinated on a completely preventable infection that usually ends-up killing them once they contract it. … Continue reading American Exceptionalism Strikes Back: COVID-19 Cases Rise Back Up to Previous Lockdown Levels
Religion is Dying by James A. Haught is a Poorly Formatted Mess
First and foremost, this had to be one of the worst formatted books I have ever had the displeasure to read on Kindle.

Rethinking the Reason Endings of SMT3 Nocturne and Why They’re Not Useless: Musubi
One of the most notorious things about a game with six endings is that people will obviously try to do the route with the most extra content and then unfortunately quit.

Should the New Atheists be considered the Most Influential Western Philosophers of the Early 21st Century?
"The Christian share of the population is down and religious “nones” have grown across multiple demographic groups: white people, black people and Hispanics; men and women; in all regions of the country; and among college graduates and those with lower levels of educational attainment. Religious “nones” are growing faster among Democrats than Republicans, though their ranks are swelling in both partisan coalitions. And although the religiously unaffiliated are on the rise among younger people and most groups of older adults, their growth is most pronounced among young adults." - Pew Research Survey of 2019

Letters to a Young Contrarian by Christopher Hitchens
“Beware the irrational, however seductive. Shun the 'transcendent' and all who invite you to subordinate or annihilate yourself. Distrust compassion; prefer dignity for yourself and others. Don't be afraid to be thought arrogant or selfish. Picture all experts as if they were mammals. Never be a spectator of unfairness or stupidity. Seek out argument and disputation for their own sake; the grave will supply plenty of time for silence. Suspect your own motives, and all excuses. Do not live for others any more than you would expect others to live for you.” - Christopher Hitchens
