So, I’ve updated a few things on Loki Listens today, and I’d like to take a moment to bring your attention to them.
Now, at the bottom of every post and page, you can find Sociable buttons! This makes it easy to share my posts with all your friends and neighbors through whatever social network [...]
Wow, I had no idea how long it had been since I had posted an entry here. What can I say, sometimes life just catches up with you.
This is not to say that I stopped writing all together. I’ve made a lot of headway on my two big fiction projects, The [...]

What is Ideology?
In the simplest of terms, ideology is the study of ideas.
In the previous philosophical series, Developmental Theology 089, we talked about very basic ideas that can help develop an open mind, and teach us how to create our own philosophical views, overlooking prior prejudices. You can read the entire Developmental [...]

When I asked the community for an inside view of Humanism, I never expected to get such a rich and detailed version like the one Ryan provided for our last lesson.
In this lesson, we’ll talk about Humanism, using the information that is generally available across the net, and some of the remarks Ryan [...]

Touching on key points, comparing to a couple of other ideologies, talking about famous Humanists, and hopefully getting a [...]

I’m working on a set of articles for the Basic Ideology 101 series that covers dominant and popular ideologies in use around the world today. These articles will be in-depth, but, hopefully, easy to understand.
We will talk about philosophies, religious views, politics, and cultures. Along with ideologies you may already be [...]

As I write these lessons and examples, I think I am learning more and more about how to teach. I am making this journey with you, every step of the way. Richard Bach once said that we teach best what we most need to learn. So, I guess, really, I’m just trying [...]

Richard Matheson wrote What Dreams May Come in 1978, as a love story to his wife. It pops up every so often in my life, and reminds me of the things that I love, and gives me hope. I may disappear from time to time, but it is within my nature to run. [...]
