  • The Full Extent

    by Richard Botelho
    In the early 20th century, discoveries in quantum mechanics proved Consciousness is the ground of all being. This finding contradicted scientific materialism, which posited matter as foundational; instead, matter results from Mind.

Heywood does this by introducing facts and posing questions for which he then proffers a variety of answers, allowing ... more

In The Anthropocene Epoch, we will examine how humankind has altered the character of our home—planet Earth—over ... more

Note to Parents We don’t want our children to feel bad. But teaching them that it’s okay to feel sad or angry lessens the effect of those negative feelings. Studies have shown that when we avoid or distract ourselves from feeling bad, the emotions don’t go away, and may intensify or cause us to respond uninte... more
