From being one of the principal partner in all heterosexual relationships, to being the primary care-giver of children in the family, and, arguably, of all or most societies.  Women, in all societies, perform a critical role in transmitting the culture and traditions of their society, from one generation to the other.  Even when aspects of those traditions and cultures are inimical to the position of women and, in general, females.   In terms of them perpetuating the social, physical, cultural and ethical principles and values which underpin their societies. As far as the care of the human race is concerned, god does not have it in his hand.  Men do not have it in their hands. It is, arguably though it might be debated, women who have the care of the the world in their hands.  With oftentimes, them having to protect it from the privation and destructive tendencies of Men and their gods. It seems accurate to argue that the living of all humans, both males and fe

On of the most reports on Saudi Arabia's war on the Yemenis, supported by America and Britain, was that 68 civilians have recently been killed by two air attacks by the Saudi, British, American and their Sunni coalition.  Sixty-eight people died, some of them children, which means that, as is the case with wars in general, not only is the present being obliterated, but also part or some of the future.  The war machinery might be 'modern and sophisticated', but the strategy of war is still the same as it has always been.  Namely to to kill 'your enemies', present and future, which means killing the women and the children as well.  Kill the people and destroy their livelihoods, scorched the earth and make it unable to sustain the lives of the people, who are now, or might at some future point become your new enemies.  Look around you and the evidence is voluminous and speak with the same unmistakable voice.  The land is made desolate, with the people&#

If anybody has any doubts about this, then let them to to other countries around the world.  Examine what has and is taking place in many African countries, countries in the Middle East, in the Americas, in Asia, et al.  Where, for millions of people, their daily lives are constantly filled with fighting against the odds.  Of course, in Iran some will already have benefited from the positive impact of the Nuclear Agreement.  And it is not going to be in their and the interests of others to follow, that discontented Iranians from the political classes  should now be behaving in a way which adds to the nation's challenges.  And could result in bringing at end to this process of gradual improvement in Iranians living standards. A situation which would then give rise to further discontent.  This is not the behaviour of responsible people, who are aware of their present position, relative to the nations around them, and within the geopolitical circumstances which are imp

After all, we are all aware that a thing, an idea even, does not have to accurate or true to have its intended effect.  All we have to do, is to propagate it 'as being true.' Fake it until it takes on the semblance, the demeanour of 'being the truth', and being accepted and interact with as such. Yes, just like religions of all kinds. And so it is that I, Donald J Trump, do not have to fully realise my mission of 'making America great again.'  Because, if I am thwarted from doing so, all I have to do, is to ensure that the people believe that I have done so.  Even if I and my great, my very great team have just had a terrific year of great successes. Of having made great strides in making America great again.  Of putting many thousands of Americans back to work. So that they can feed and housed their families.  And what of Obama's Affordable Care Act? Did I not say I would repeal it, and am I not well on the road to doing so? Yes, I am

Whom, as I have argued, are in us and of us. That we can only be truly free to help ourselves, if and when we free ourselves of the 'otherness' of the gods.   And accept that the gods are us; the collective human we, us. And that we should seek to serve us, humans, and not the out there, the 'other' god/s. After all, might it not be the case that, when all is well with us humans, all will be well with our perceptual world/s?  As we achieve greater symmetry with working with, and not against our eco-system and universe?  There is a case to be argued, that humans have  much to do to become a healthier and more efficient cog or link in the evolutionary chain.   To be spending so much of our time and resources attending to the imaginary needs of the gods, 'out there', instead on the actual needs of the people who create the gods; us. Which is why I felt so uncomfortable, so much like 'a fraud', as I part-take in this Mid-

Any such attempts are likely to fail and only increase and prolong the negative impact of the dominance of the orthodox religious establishment.  Astute and prudent political strategies by Iranian leaders, is what is going to, over probably a long period of time, carry the day for the 'reformists.' Violence begets death and destruction, which can then become cyclical.  It is right and understandable that the dispossessed Iranians should be allowed to demonstrate and articulate their grievances peacefully, and that their voices should be heard.  What should not be allowed, is for them to be able to bring havoc and further destitution and despair to the nation.  By causing and/or indulging in violent confrontation with the government, which then leads to destruction of property  and instability and insecurity.  Iranians who do not have jobs, who do not have adequate housing and amenities, are not going to get those things by destroying what other Iranians and th

By becoming a leader of men, first of the Disciples, and then of the Christian religion. Warming to his theme, imagine, said the Deputy Vicar, that the powerful leader of the United States President Donald Trump were to make himself into a lowly mouse, and appear amongst the people.  Consider how vulnerable he would have made himself? Thus intimating that Christ, the purported Son of God, had also made himself vulnerable by being born in a manger.  Of course, using President Trump as a metaphor, as, when he asked the congregation what they would have done, could not but result in a controversial reaction.  As there was a distinctive rustling within the congregation, with one person quipping that she would have stamped on the 'presidential mouse.' A view which many would have shared. Anyway, as I watched the progress of the ceremony. I could not but help thinking that, it would have been so much more relevant to and interesting for the congregation, if the ceremo
