Israel and the Canaanites

The Old Testament reports that the people of Israel went from Egypt to Canaan. During this trek was when the Amalekites infamously waylaid the people of Israel. Yet the vengeance war against them was later, the people of Israel were on their way to take Canaan from the Canaanite tribes. There were many Canaanite tribes. […]

Gilgamesh throughout the Signs of the Zodiac

The prototype of the solar heroes, who traveled along the zodiac through the sky, was Gilgamesh. I asked the Chinese AI agent DeepSeek to assign the stations of Gilgamesh’ journey to the twelve signs of the zodiac. It took several sessions until I was able to persuade DeepSeek to consider the works of Robert Temple […]

How to Bring a Nation Down

A German tourist saw a sign at a university in South Africa. It read: The destruction of a nation does not require the use of atomic bombs or long-range missiles. It is enough to lower the quality of education and let students cheat on exams. Patients die because of doctors like that. Buildings collapse because […]

It’s Germany’s Chimney Sweepers’ Day

On October, 15th in each year since 2010 is Chimney Sweepers’ Day! At least in Germany, where the Federal Association of the Chimney Sweeping Handicraft in 2010 initiated this fancy holiday. So some people wanted to celebrate themselves, while other people celebrate Chimney Sweepers’ Day because the chimney sweeper in his black working garment is […]

Education Supposed to Be Free?

When Martin Armstrong complains that no economics examination is required to enter the Senate, then he in truth doesn’t understand fundamental principles of democracy.

World Standards Day!

On October, 14th in each year since 1970 is World Standards Day, sometimes also called International Standards Day. The World Standards Day was initiated by experts of the International Standardization Organization (ISO), of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), and of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), who wanted to celebrate themselves. They had this idea in […]

German Peculiarities: Educational System (Part 12)

To me is only logical that the training for a profession should include theory as well as practice. Perhaps only because I grew up in Germany? Many vocational schools exist in Germany. Who in the age of fifteen graduates from school, still has, at least in some German states (Bundesländer), a year of the obligation […]

A Matter of Faith

I recently did again stumble upon a religious tv program and watched the 2014 American christian drama movie A Matter of Faith. I missed the first minutes, but I still can say that it began with the typical byplay for introducing the main characters. Then it made a beeline for the main event, which was […]
