• It is quite easy to be a clown; you put a hat on. You paint a face, honk a horn. Even then, clowns aren’t very funny. What is somehow treated as more comical than a clown is fighting a bulls*** war for another country. Oh, wait, that isn’t funny at all. It’s stupid. For the…

  • Existential Exhaustion

    Recently, I have had a falling out with my belief in Jesus of Nazareth. It is not that I no longer believe in God, or in the figure (and divinity) of Jesus, but rather that I have been moving toward a rejection of the faculties of belief in him (and God) altogether. I began to fully…

  • If one decides to be religious—what defines their religion, and how? Do they have to do anything with their religion? Is it a ‘work,’ a type of faith, belief, or choice? Are they predestined for these actions? Do they need to earn ‘it,’ or are they given ‘it’? Is religion a passive encounter with the…
