    Still Life from a Starbucks Civilization
    2008-07-10 16:20:47
    Just before the not-long-enough July 4th weekend, globalized coffeemaker Starbucks announced that it will be closing 600 stores. By now, we’ve heard gleeful reactions from people who support the demise of this Walmart of coffee beans. We’ve also, of course, heard the human side to these closings: 12,000 full- and part-timers are losing their jobs [...] ...

    Signed With Love, A Dead Civilization
    2008-06-23 20:20:18
     Signed With Love, A Dead Civilization By Rook Hawkins   Thomas Cahill wrote that “the Historian’s principal task should be to raise the dead to life.”[1]  Cahill is certainly right.  Often times in antiquity, ancient historians would take this statement too literally, raising their protagonist from the dead using all sorts of miraculous and fictional motifs to do it.  Thankfully, the days where city founders and saviors would meet their righteous followers on the road before ascending off into the sky are over, particularly when it comes to literary exegesis (although there are still a few evangelical and reactionary historians who try to do this with the Gospel Jesus).  Modern historians have new ways to bringing the dead back to life, and more often than not, this is accomplished with methods revolving around science instead of superstition.  read more ...

It influenced many social aspects in the region at that time, such as history of poli...

    2008-02-08 19:04:46
    if you follow news, two events in the the last few days might have caught your attention. one is from US, another from a far away foreign land, but with a very familiar name, Iraq. i quote from the news sources:1. Cruelties that defy belief | an ubiquitous phenomena for farm raised animalA shocking undercover investigation by The Humane Society of the United States reveals widespread mistreatment and rampant animal cruelty of "downed" dairy cows at a Southern California slaughter plant.Video evidence obtained by an HSUS investigator shows slaughter plant workers displaying complete disregard for the pain and misery they inflicted as they repeatedly attempted to force "downed" animals onto their feet and into the human food chain. In the video, workers are seen kicking cows, ramming them with the blades of a forklift, jabbing them in the eyes, applying painful electrical shocks and even torturing them with a hose and water in attempts to force sick or injured animals to walk to slaughte...

    The alliance of Western Civilization, Christianity, and Modern Science
    2007-10-01 11:35:00
    By the 6th century, the Franks were Christianised, and the Frankish Empire ruled by the Merovingians had become the most powerful of the kingdoms which succeeded the Western Roman Empire until their decline. In October of 732, the Franks led by Charles Martel stopped the advance of Islam in Europe at the Battle of Tours (1) preserving western civilization from Islamization and helping to lay the foundations of what became the Carolingian Empire. Charles grandson Charlemagne expanded the Frankish kingdoms into an Empire that incorporated much of Europe. After conquering Italy, Charlemagne tried to revive the Western Roman Empire and when the Pope crowned him Imperator Augustus on 25 December 800, Charlemagne became the first Emperor in what would become known as The Holy Roman Empire which lasted until being dissolved during the Napoleonic Wars (which brought profound change to Europe, then the New World, and finally much of the world). It was in this ever changing Western civilization ...

    Civilization: Amid Old Triumphs, New Threats from Fascism
    2007-08-13 21:01:47
    Bertrand Russell, in hisWisdom of the West, put forward a simple thesis. Western Civilization is essentially Greek civilization.There is no civilization but the Greek in which a philosophic movement goeshand in hand with a scientific tradition. It is this that gives the Greek enterprise its peculiar scope; it is this dual tradition that hasshaped the civilization of the west.--Bertrand Russell, Wisdom of the WestIn support of his thesis, Russell points to the authoritarian,theocratic natures of earlier civilizations --Egypt and Babylonia.Religion, Russell stated, seems inconsistent with the Greek spirit offree inquiry typified most famously by Socrates and the Platonictradition that followed. It is because Greek civilization was primarilysecular, Russell believed, that the spirit of "free inquiry" took rootin the west. This spirit, he believed, was incompatible with bothauthoritarianism and religion itself.A Renaissance of Western Civilization was associated with the pre-eminence of Lo...
