Prof of religions 43 years, b1951, HRT 2018. Married to a woman since 1982, 1 son. 6 books so far. Out awkwardly as trans mid 2020, resigned Dec 22, OK now.
My letter in the Jan 6 NY Daily News:
As we pass the fifth anniversary of Jan. 6 with President Nicolás Maduro in handcuffs, it’s worth noting that our Justice Department could have handcuffed President Trump on the day Joe Biden took office in 2021. Trump wouldn’t be president now.

Germany fell to.Fascism after losing the Great War in 1918 and 15 years of hyperinflation and chaos. The US is spending itself toward fascism.

Epstein was the glamorous, cool patriarch Trump wanted to be. At his Zorro Ranch near Santa Fe, 3+ miles on each side with 20 buildings and an airport, Epstein planned a woman bearing his child in each house.

Religious history suggests a three-state solution. Gaza was the Palestinian (Philistine) stronghold centuries before David ruled Jerusalem. Make Gaza a state now, then settle Muslim and Christian rights in a Palestine interwoven with Jewish Israel.

President Zelenskyy of Ukraine should win the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize. He bravely resisted both the Russian war machine and bullying to surrender by Trump and Vance.

Awfully nice that demonstrations in Chicago forced Trump to shift his armed occupation plans to Memphis! Now maybe Trump can enjoy reminiscing about Epstein with UK Ambassador Mandelson on his State Visit.

PM: I would never have appointed Mandelson had I known full Epstein links
The PM says a due diligence process was gone through before Lord Mandelson was appointed US ambassador.

I think Putin had Charlie Kirk shot by a sniper because Kirk wouldn't stop podcasting about Epstein. Putin protects Trump and Putin killed Epstein in 2019. Here's what Google AI replied to "Charlie Kirk on Epstein,"

The mother of the MN shooter gave Robert permission to change to Robin at 17, in 2020. Robert went to the school, and she was a beloved secretary at the church She "retired" in 2021 at a young age. Any thoughts?

The idea that we will build new nuclear reactors to power server farms needed to mine cryptocurrency and enable AI to concoct elaborate parodies of human culture is mind boggling in its suicidal stupidity

Is it "common sense" for trans kids of 18, 17, 16, 15, 14 and younger to lose the puberty blockers and hormones some have had for years? Only because Trump wants votes from haters. So do Vance and Elon. Let kids, parents, and doctors decide, not politicians.

And I thought what Jon Stewart said, that Trump didn't care about underage sex but was upset over his omelet cook! It was MUCH WORSE!

And he was Epstein's bestie for 15 years Now trying to distract with incoherent rambling about 2016 in the Oval Office. He's toast
