Genius: Nature or Nurture
Sunday, 21 June 2009 5:06 A GMT-04
On the issue of Genius, I do not consider it to be reducible to either nature or nurture; I think there is probably a not-so-easily determinable degree of interaction between both factors (nature and nurture) for this issue. Intuitively, I am more li

Obama, Please Stand Up!
Friday, 19 June 2009 3:56 P GMT-04
For about a week now, we have seen real (and sometimes scary) demonstrations in Iran over the recently concluded elections. I am sure that most people have been following the coverage wherever they are, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to as

Black America: Will Obama Bring Home the Pork Chops?
Wednesday, 9 July 2008 12:03 A GMT-04
Winning the democratic presidential nomination is not everything---something Barack Obama already knows.
During the democratic presidential nomination process, something was happening in the Black/African-American political consciousness. For many A

George Carlin
Saturday, 5 July 2008 12:43 A GMT-04
George Carlin was definitely one of the most versatile, wide-ranging comic on the American Landscape in the past 50 years. And even though he has been dead for a few days now, I thought it necessary to devote a blog to him. I am not going to labor to

Self-styled Father of Modern Nigeria, ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, has become the central figure in another bizarre and mind-bending tale of colossal proportions! This time, he is mired in something far more serious and baffling than political dra

The Holy Trinity
Sunday, 6 January 2008 1:48 A GMT-04
There is an aspect of the Christian doctrine that I have, for a very long time, pondered upon. It is a topic that challenges the very core of Christian belief; a topic that has generated serious dissension over the years. I have heard and read many p

Redskins vs Seahawks
Saturday, 5 January 2008 7:19 A GMT-04
I am not a big fan of the Washington Redskins. Simple and Short. I hope I've not offended you because you expect that I should be one seeing that I live in the Redskins' home area.

When I was a young boy, I had a neighbor who was an avid animal lover. He had many pets???in fact, he had way too many pets. Because I was surrounded by these pet-lovers, I developed a strong love for animals at a very tender age. I remember those af
