Facebook is ready to police online debate in the lead-up to our democratic elections. Why do we need Big Tech paternalism interfering with civil discourse in the exercise of our democratic rights?

Civil, reasoned, friendly and free debate is becoming extinct. Instead, one is expected to always adhere to the general consensus and align with the official narrative. That is not healthy for creativity and democracy. Autumn in Surry Wood by William Russell Flint (1880 – [...]

Oversimplified narratives and kneejerk reactions are dividing our society. By extending grace to others and taking a breath to consider their perspectives, we can save our communities from increasing polarisation. Our world is fracturing. It’s fracturing across many issues: from politics to race; from climate [...]

This Christian doctor desperately needs your support: What would you think if you lost your livelihood, your career, your only source of income, all because of the radical cancel culture? How would you feel if you studied hard for years for your chosen professional career, [...]

Fear greatly our loss of freedoms and basic human rights: When the ever-expanding State effectively colludes with monolithic Tech Giants and Big Business to censor free speech and free thought, you know you are living in very dangerous times. And using the excuse of COVID-19 [...]

The West is at war with itself: It does not take astute analytical abilities, incisive perception, or acute political awareness to see that the West is fraying at the edges. Indeed, it is a world splitting apart. The older I get, the more I grieve [...]
