The Cultural Futurist

The Extinction Cabaret

This is an old piece of mine that has been updated a bit. With Cultural Futurist Salon II - Cabaret of Secrets soon approaching, it feels like a good time to share. Enjoy! A performer named Climax Change is going to speak her truth. She’ll create her own praxis with her theories of death and eroticism. She’s just another Sylvia Plath in this factory of d…

We are more alike than we are different. At the core of every human soul is the desire to be seen, loved, appreciated….comprehended. This is what drives everything we do, even when we’re unaware of it. We all desire love because we are love based beings, sent to experience this truth in bodily form…

Why are People So Divided and Hostile? – The Dangers of Racial, National, and Political Identities

“We fall captive to the herd animal if we cannot reach the individual divinity in ourselves.” Carl Jung, ETH Lecture December 1939 A healthy sense of self is built upon two primary components: the realization of our unique potential and the identification with a set of collective norms. If we tend too far in the direction of either one of these components our personality will develop in a distorted manner. An extreme individualism is anti-social and does not give proper weight to the wisdom of tradition, while an over-identification with the collective leads to pathological conformity and a lack of self-reliance. The ideal is to strike the golden mean between these two extremes, embracing both our individuality and our collective nature…

Attorney Bobbie Anne Cox... Knowledge is power!

Climate Lockdowns Have Begun!

Well folks, I really hate to say this, but it’s another win for the conspiracy theorists. They can take off their tinfoil hats and take a deep bow. Yet another one of their outrageous “predictions” is coming true. For anyone keeping score, sadly the score card is rather one-sided. I think the count is something like Conspiracy Theorists = 1,000,000 …

On the Loss of "Communities" and The Evolution of Self

I suppose I’ve always been somewhat of a black sheep, a renegade, a heretic. One could look at my life, my background, my upbringing, my traumas and wounds and come to that conclusion – that assessment – that judgement. It’s not really for me to say – as this is for others to determine (or project) or not. But given various attributes, characteristics, …

Let heaven exist, though my own place be in hell. Let me be tortured and battered and annihilated, but let there be one instant, one creature, wherein thy enormous Library may find its justification. —Borges, from “The Library of Babel” Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call to her tribunal every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the exis…

The Freedom Scale

The Day I Stopped Being an Atheist

I believe in God. I was not raised that way, however. I had to come to it myself. Back in December, Max Borders wrote a piece documenting some of the reasons why he is no longer an atheist. It occurred to me then that it might be interesting to share my story. (Naturally, Christmas and other things intervened, so I am only getting around to it now…

Post Post Modern

The end of an era is a time to begin.

As I sit to write this post, I can see a bright orange glow gradually introduce itself to the waking sky. The SUN. For just the second time in months I can actually see the sun well enough to watch it as it rises. I know, I know- big deal, right…
