Advancing Psychological Education for All
True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise human doubts often, and changes one’s mind; the unwise individual is obstinate, and doubts not; one knows all things but one’s own unenlightenment. As you know, self-consumers have a self-production supply below the self-consumption demand for a good or service. In turn, this is called prosuming, … Continue reading
Conventional economics looks at purchases like these as consumption. However, there is a completely different way of thinking about them. What they really represent is a large-scale investment in capital goods that increase the still largely unmeasured value of their prosumer output. Today, in advanced economies, an inventory of capital goods found in an ordinary … Continue reading
Once the World has been purged of ghosts and spirits, it reveals to us that the critical problem is scarcity. Nature is a stepmother who has left us unprovided for. However, this means we need have no gratitude. When we revered nature, we were poor. Since there was not enough, we had to take from … Continue reading
There are some serious arguments for us to consider when dealing with the revolutionaries who accepted our principles of freedom and equality. Many believed that we had not thought through these cherished ideals. Can equality really only mean equal opportunity for unequal talents to acquire property? Should shrewdness at acquisition be better rewarded than moral … Continue reading
In America, the elite, the top one percent of earners, no matter what their race is are considered the cream of the crop. America is a capitalistic society where the dollar is king. Much immigration followed the end of slavery because people need to new supply of labor. Since then, America has become a diverse … Continue reading

First, we accept what they seem to offer us, we express it, we weave it into a “view,” and then think we are aware of our World. However, we come to see that what we … Continue reading
A story of confession—man tells how he reached the true meaning of his experience of life, and that this meaning border directly on the eternal. Satan first appeared in the sixth century B.C., in Persia, under the name of Angra Mainyu. He was usually represented as a snake, or as part lion, part snake, which … Continue reading
As God has set the king of America, so in our Psalm he has set the intermediary—beings—here called “gods” and elsewhere called “sons of God,” over the nations of the Earth, each over one of the nations, in order to manifest in its structure and government the justice of the Judges of the World.

Some years ago, while watching a program called the Vidal Sassoon Show (now mercifully defunct), I came across the quintessential example of something very fascinating about things that used to be exclusively adult secrets, and how this privacy has been lost. Vidal Sassoon is a famous hairdresser whose television show was a mixture of beauty … Continue reading
It is normal for a sober adult citizen to take the wildness and absurdities of the younger generation tolerantly and with a touch of envious admiration, just as those adults who are more inhibited and insecure always must deplore them and feel that things are going to the dogs. In solidly established Augustan ages, such … Continue reading
A mental disorder has been taking place, reflecting not only individual psychological strain but also the broader social and environmental forces that shape mental health.…
People often assume that sharing a physical environment means sharing a psychological or social reality. Yet this is one of the great illusions of modern…
Surely it could not be alive in there. And yet something stirred — not with the vulgar animation of breath, but with the slow, drifting…
