Musical Objective

Posted on May 14, 2014 by ehurst

Virtual Morals

Posted on May 12, 2014 by ehurst

If you can understand the virtual world, then quantum moral reasoning is not such a big leap. Most people do not recognize the huge difference between meat space and online. They keep trying to apply their meat-space expectations to the … Continue reading →

Gossamer Thunder

Posted on May 7, 2014 by ehurst

I realize it all sounds like bullshit. You. You are the project. Not someone else and certainly not the world around you. No other part of this reality is of any real concern. Your reactions are what you need to … Continue reading →

Moral OPSEC

Posted on May 3, 2014 by ehurst

Human conflict is a given. It requires a special kind of truculent stupidity to imagine we could ever remove it from human existence. It’s why we have the military. Experience in the military tends to affect the way one thinks … Continue reading →

The Stink of Hell Nearby

Posted on May 2, 2014 by ehurst

Posted on April 27, 2014 by ehurst

Therefore, if you have been raised with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Keep thinking about things above, not things on the earth, for you have died and your life is hidden … Continue reading →

Posted on April 23, 2014 by ehurst

We have a dozen words that could serve as synonyms for “love” in various contexts, but it is a testimony to the failure of Anglo-American culture that we still abuse the word with such ambiguity. We confuse it intentionally; we … Continue reading →

Living Law

Posted on April 21, 2014 by ehurst

Most people get God’s Laws all wrong. It’s not that they can’t understand the words, and to some degree the higher concepts, but they insist on seeing “law” as some reflection of what our society has done with the concept. … Continue reading →
