Re: Rebels Without a Clue
PRESSURE TO END APARTHEID BEGAN AT GRASS ROOTS IN U.S. They are young and full of idealism, and thank goodness for that. They may not know all the ins and outs of how their universities, or the universities in the city where they live, are invested in Israel and support for the current right wing i...

Re: The God of Spinoza
Well to be fair, I think that piece is meant to be quoting Einstein's description of Spinoza's God, and the term egomaniac has been in usage since 1890 so it certainly wouldn't be out of Einstein's wheelhouse, considering that Einstein and Freud engaged in lengthy correspondence.

The God of Spinoza
I found this online and it was not attributed. When Einstein gave lectures at U.S. universities, the question students asked him most was: Do you believe in God? And he always answered: I believe in the God of Spinoza. Baruch de Spinoza was a Dutch philosopher considered one of the great rationalist...

Re: Home for Random Thoughts
However mean your life is, meet and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, ev...

Re: SCOTUS arguments on presidential immunity
I agree with you Big RR; I listened to the arguments in full and felt very much like democracy was hanging in the balance. I don't think there should be any immunity from criminal law for any office holder at any level in a democracy. Plenty of functional democracies around the globe have tried and ...

Re: 40 years ago?????
She loved the experience, because she loved me and I was clearly delighted with it all. I think she was a little embarrassed by the sex parts, which isn't a shocking response from a grandma after all. Also at the age I was then (13) I hadn't quite grasped the scope of my grandma's life, which began ...

Re: 40 years ago?????
Yes, I saw it happen from my grandmother's car at a drive-in movie theater in Hyannis, Massachusetts! My grandma thought it was all so silly.

Re: Israel at War
Watching Speaker Johnson speaking at Columbia University while Palestinian/Hamas supporters scream at him in response. What a bizarre world where I am aligned with Speaker Johnson and grateful for his leadership. This whole protest thing on college campuses is troubling. I follow another internet bo...

Re: A local story
Our prosecutors are not elected, and yet still have a tendency to grossly overcharge in cases involving the death or injury of police. One case that was only resolved days ago involved a family in a SUV in an underground parking garage who were swarmed by a group of plainclothes police who the fami...
