Spoils of War?

Hindu ( ॐ ) depiction of the Battle of Kurukshetra ( कुरुक्षेत्र ), between the Kauravas ( कौरव ) and the Pandavas ( पाण्डव ), recorded in the Mahabharata ( महाभारतम् ) Spoils of War? Friday – October 9, 2026 D euteronomy 13:12 – 18 states many things and the purpose of this post is not to recount that entire passage of the Torah ( תּוֹרָה ), but among one of the things that this passage mentions is the spoils of war that the Israeli nation must take from the town that they have just defeated in a holy war fought in the defence of the name of Yahweh ( יהוה ) . Now, the question then becomes what should be done with the spoils of war? Yes, because today there are plenty of wars being fought all across the earth, read " My Views on Warfare in Modern Times ", and I have been forced to wonder whether or not there are any spoils of war left these days, or if perhaps the power of destruction leaves nothing left to the imagination? See, what Deuteronomy 13:12 – 17 eventually makes ...

Biblical ( תַּנַ״ךְ ) depiction of the flight from Sodom and Gomorrah Family Honour | Thursday – October 8, 2026 F amily and the honour of family can sometimes be quite sensitive subjects, especially when people outside the family have a very culturally divergent concept of honour, and this is perhaps and in particular noticeable in the context of multiculturalism in the Western world , where many Westerners have a completely libertarian and almost hedonistic sense of honour based only on individualistic and material standing in the world. This largely Western and may I say action oriented sense of honour will invariably clash with other cultures' sense of what true honour is, and on top of this the Western sense of honour is essentially disconnected from history , which only furthers this painful friction.     Now, in this part/installment of this series, " Answering Readers series ", this is exactly the question that I have been asked to deal with, and I should warn al...

Image of the Hubble Ultra-Deep Field The Universe | Wednesday – October 7, 2026 P rofane Science has unveiled an enormous cosmos that really must be said to be quite incomprehensible to almost any man. Indeed, this image of the so-called "Hubble Ultra-Deep Field" is one but many examples of this, and according to the American National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) the image featured on this page contains more than 10 000 galaxies, and each of those galaxies contains between hundreds of millions to billions of stars, and this particular images is just one small representation of the universe form one tiny dot in the sky.      Indeed, this is quite simply amazing and should serve to put it all into perspective, whether or not you are a proponent of profane science or not, and I must admit that I have never quite understood men who claim to oppose profane science, for profane science in and of itself can surely be demonstrated to hold true, and none of th...

Photograph of the Atlas globe Carpe Diem? Tuesday – October 6, 2026 T his Latin saying of Carpe Diem is perhaps a true cliché, meaning "pluck the day", and I must say that I do not regard this saying in and of itself as quite annoying, but I do find it to be a very overused phrase and I would prefer that all of these pretentious people stopped using it. The thing that really set me off against people using "Carpe Diem" was reading a very painful autobiography written by a profoundly unemployed liberal man in the United States , and since I refuse to engage in marketing on this blog , you will have to figure out for yourself what book I am referring to. Now can you imagine the title of that autobiography? Yes, it was "Carpe Diem", but I stated that I was not going to do marketing, and I am not; there are at least 1000 autobiographies with that title written by profoundly white liberal and useless men. So really, there I am running no risk by revealing the...
