بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ The amount of spiritedness in discussion today is worrying.  While it’s likely nothing new, the speed at which information can travel causes more discourse then dialogue.  This is more worrying when one looks at the history of rhetoric and what groups/people provided later generations with a solid framework for rhetoric. Let’s […]

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ I’ve  been fortunate to travel quite a bit in the last few years, visiting places in Europe, the Middle East and the South Pacific.  One thing I’ve always looked for is the how the “capacity” of said place is, referring specifically to things that drive some type of economic benefit for […]

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ Living in a developed country offers many things not available in underdeveloped countries.  Impoverished people in developed countries often struggle for supplemental comfort such as shelter from the elements, clean clothes, comfortable sleep area, etc..   While the impoverished in underdeveloped countries struggle for more basic items for survival such as basic […]

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ I’m in a constant state of awe seeing how people enter these elaborate debates across all different mediums on the internet.  Due to the fear of bring branded non-pc, anti-Semitic, a fear monger, etc. people have turned to the anonymity of the internet.  This anonymity offers a shield where anyone (or […]

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ “Women totally dominate men of intellect and possessors of hearts. But ignorant men dominate women, for they are shackled by an animal ferocity. They have no kindness, gentleness or love, since animality dominates their nature. Love and kindness are human attributes; anger and sensuality belong to the animals. ” -Rumi The […]

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ I was in NYC the week before Christmas, 2007 for training.  One of the most interesting aspects of the big cities are the types of beggars.  The commons ones are as follows: The drunk: trying to fill his last empty cup with some change to score another drink The musician: who […]

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ I helped with interviews on campus this past Friday. Since it was my first time helping I doubled up with someone and took most of the notes while the other person asked all the questions. I took advantage of the opportunity to look for the the distinctive behaviors that separate the […]

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ Something interesting to note (at least in my mind): One of the most adopted concepts people love today is being a relativist, in more than one shape or form. A big one is the moral relativists, where whatever is acceptable today is acceptable, regardless of what history has told us. Or […]
