Jesus and the Christian Socialist’s Problem of Evil

In philosophy and theology, there is an issue called “theodicy” or the problem of evil. The problem of evil has been stated and restated several times throughout history. Put very simply, if God is all-powerful and good, then why is there suffering and evil? In fact, these very questions and issues (among others) are the bulk of the Old Testament book of Job:

Job 9:22-24—“It is all one; therefore I say,

‘He destroys the guiltless and the wicked.’ 

War and Trade Restrictions: Fallacious Paths to National Security and Prosperity

The US is ignorant of how to achieve two major goals: security and prosperity. Due to this ignorance, it has engaged in an undeclared war in the Middle East and has instituted protective tariffs at home. The war in the Middle East will not enhance American security, and the protective tariffs will cause economic harm at home, both completely opposite results of their authors’ intentions.

Why the Crash Was Delayed

Whatever happened to the mother of all crashes that was supposed to arrive when the Federal Reserve began tightening its balance sheet back in 2022? For several years, I’ve been scratching my head, convinced that draining the balance sheet by trillions of dollars should have triggered a systemic banking failure or some other Black Swan event. In the past, crises like Lehman/AIG or the 2020 lockdowns took the blame, when in reality, the root cause was always monetary.
