Inspired from youth by Albert Camus' sense of the Absurd, I try to be a voice for REASON in the growing darkness and moral insanity of global capitalism .

Truly Satanic hate is being unleashed - a war between the sexes ?
The capitalist ruling class would rather start a ridiculous war between the sexes, or between the races, or between the nations, or between ethnic groups than suffer a much more sensible CLASS war.
Truly Satanic hate is being unleashed. Oddly enough, the last chapter of the Lucretius Latin language classic " On the Nature of Things " is not about blissful materialism. It is about the horror of life during the plague that struck " democratic " Athens.
Ironically Lucretius ridiculed individuals driven mad by sexual passions.
Albert Camus concluded his novel " The Plague " with the happy thought that there is more to admire in men than to despise.
What coming " plague " will teach us that ? Or that blissful capitalism is forever?
