Short introduction to the work of Dr. Benjamin Wiker and his book on the Reformation documenting the actions of Martin Luther, Calvin, Savonarola, and many others. Dr. Wiker considers alternative historical choices that could have been made which may have altered history. Christianity has experienced a series of reform movements (indeed Reformations) from the very beginning. Wiker acknowledges the many bad popes who riddle Catholic church history but balances this by noting the shortcomings of Luther and others in the Protestant movement. Wiker issues a hopeful message regarding the state of Christianity by pointing out the ways in which the believers must respond to the dual threats of the secular State and also Islam.
I balance this presentation by mentioning the work of "agnostic Protestant" John Julius Norwich a prolific, multi-time best-selling author who has written a couple of books on the history of the papacy. Most importantly Norwich penned, "Absolute Monarchs" which documents in depth some of the more notorious actions of past popes including a chapter on the dubious character of Pope Joan.

Peter Boghossian and colleague James Lindsay collaborated on the creation of a hoaxed article to poke fun at postmodernism and to further demonstrate the complete lack of critical thinking involved in PoMo studies. The article also helps to demonstrate the lack of consistent standards in certain fields of study.
The article which claimed that the penis is a mere social construct is similar to a 1996 article by physicist Alan Sokal who notoriously (and uproariously) fooled the editors of PoMo journal called 'Social Text'. Sokal used the article to parody relativism and Boghossian used his article to parody the various 'studies' programs which are loaded with negative assumptions about males, climate change theory, and so on.
I apologize for the background noise as this was recorded in a (noisy) car.

Are there scientifically established correlations between intelligence and crime? For purposes of commentary and criticism, I read portions of a number of articles and publications regarding the science of IQ and relationships between that and crime but also religion. Additional commentary and some criticisms are also mentioned.

Herein I offer a variety of perspectives on psychiatric diagnoses, talk about some of the views from those of an anti-psychiatry frame of mind, and the overlap between psychiatry, psychology, and psycho-therapy. Then I move on to document the massive increase in psych disorders diagnosed on U.S. university campuses and the exploding rates of STD's (or STI's) among university students. When misdiagnosis and overdiagnosis is combined with the alcohol and drug culture on many campuses, it has created a toxic milieu wherein STD's are but one of the dangerous impacts upon society.

The central issue is the murder case of Karen Klaas, which was a cold case that has recently been solved due to DNA evidence.

It is known as the Cold Hard Cash corruption case.
In this episode I explain what that was and the ways in which corrupt politicians came to the rescue of another corrupt politician. Yet America seems to have forgotten about this case.
In May of 2006, the FBI conducted a raid of the Congressional office of William J. Jefferson of Louisiana. He was indicted on 16 charges and later found guilty on 11 of those. He faced a sentence of 13 years in prison, yet ended up doing less than half of that.
Over the years, Jefferson appears to have been involved in millions of dollars of bribery and funneling money to family and friends. The FBI was able to catch him on video accepting $100,000 bucks in $100 dollar bills. When they later raided his office, they found some $90,000 dollars wrapped up in $10,000 dollar increments inside his freezer in various packages of food.
Jefferson was immediately supported and defended by two highly corrupt and immoral politicians and in this episode you will find out who they were.

On my continuing investigation for the Satanic Panic Reconsidered, I have noted that a number of people involved in constructing the mythos make preposterous claims. Claims such as: children are sexual from birth or that many children are not harmed by sexual abuse but are more upset by upset parents than anything else. I wanted to know where they were getting such absurd notions and I found out. Many of the key claims regarding children and sexual responses can easily be tracked back to a scientific fraud perpetrated by Alfred Kinsey.
Demented abuser Alfred Kinsey, is lauded by the elites or our so-called betters as a "scientist" and a "hero". But what is the truth about Kinsey? The truth is disturbing to say the least. As a scientist, he engaged in what has since been exposed as blatant fraud. As a human, he has been exposed as a monster. Much of what Kinsey started has been a major cause of modern degeneracy, increased STI's (or STD's), increased divorce, increased family disruption, the distortion of human sexuality and sex education, and finally has been a central figure both explicitly and implicitly relied upon by the crafters of the witch-hunt narrative or creators of the Satanic Panic Mythos.
The sexual revolution belong, more or less to Kinsey and his fudged study results which he skewed to get results that he wanted for propagandistic purposes. The sexual revolution and the so-called "liberation" that it brought was a sexual devolution and only brought a new set of chains for those who delved to the deepest depths of depravity.

Bonus episode for the Satanic Panic Reconsidered series: Country Walk - The Nightmarish Frank Fuster.
Despite the fact that Frank Fuster is a convicted killer, multi-time felon, admitted child molester, and is serving what is effectively a life sentence for massive child abuse at the Country Walk daycare, journalists from a number of "respected" publications plea for his release. They decry Fuster's conviction as an example of the "Satanic Panic" or hysteria or witch-hunt or you pick the term during the 1980s. They do this by lumping together a series of cases not technically even related to one another and try to say that grave injustices were done in either thousands or hundreds of cases. These claims are factually and provable incorrect.
Fuster abused one of his wives, Ileana Flores (Fuster) when he was in his mid-30s and she was but a child of 14 or 15 per her own account. This is also ignored and/or downplayed by the crafters of the Satanic Panic mythos. Fuster's abuses and crimes are legion, yet he has defenders from PBS, the National Review, and several journalists, academics, and others who should know better.
