Julia Malott is a thoughtful, well educated transgender woman who has not allowed her identity as such to poison her vision of reality. She is in fact a wonderful example of the Mind’s ability to transcend the sort of circumstances which the neuroscientists cited in my last blog claim to be Deterministic. Her Sept. 23 …
An integral aspect of the Left’s Ethos is the belief that we do not have Free Will, that our beliefs and values are determined for us by factors beyond our control or understanding. Several recent books endorsing this hypothesis come to mind, including Francis Crick’s “The Astonishing Hypothesis” [1994], Sam Harris’ “The Moral Landscape” [2010] …

In an article published by the Free Press of Bari Weiss on Oct. 2, Freddie DeBoer, a devout Marxist, explains why he feels the contemporary Left has betrayed its fundamental values. Ironically, in doing so, he exposes the superficiality of those values. Hopeful that the workers of the world might still unite in toppling the …
