There has been a long discussion regarding the institution of the family. As of now, this has been, largely a failure. Why? Because most of the issues that has been discussed are difficult to be in accordance with, because they happen too fast. One thing is to root out corruption, nobody has anything against this, […]

When we hear about fear, angst, tragedies, we know that someone are hurt, feel threatened and afraid. This is human, and if we do not accept human insecurtiy, it will often turn into war. Right now, Palestinians are rioting, why? Because they are afraid. Why do they show rage or anger? Because they are afraid, […]

The relationship between mr. Barack Obama and mr. Binyamin Netanyahu is very bad. I understand, but I hope that we can see it as something else than personal disagreement, and see it for what it really is; politics. Mr. Netanyahu needs to underpin the conservative part of his voterbase. Why? Because they got really angry […]

The East and the West is in confrontation, but the hand of peace is outstretched, and can be taken and shaken. As I understand the latest development. Mr. Putin is ready to recognize the Ukrainian independent state, including the elections that was predominantly won by pro western parties. This is an outstretched hand, and should […]

It has been a while since I thought about Sweden. But all of a sudden, Sweden is all over the news here in Denmark, and somehow we as Danes have a sort of helping role in the intellectual development of Sweden. Please let me explain with a little story. I have this amazing friend. He […]

It has been a while since I have been in company with a Jew. Not that I do not follow things in Israel on the net, but just having friends who are jews, sharing time together, has been a long time. I am not one of those too enthusiastic converts who wants to do everything […]

There has been another attack on allied ground on a central governmental institution. The war against IS has been domesticated, and the fatwa that the leader of IS gave has been heard and followed up upon. The war between the Phoenician and the Roman empire has taken yet another turn for the worse. As in […]

When you lead someone, all actions are compromises. Compromises on the interests you represent. When you lead a place like Israel, this can be like a steering in the middle of a typhoon. You have to stay calm, be honest, strong and wise for all of those you represent. This is, at best, very difficult, […]

Due to a personal ruin, and too much stress on the family front, I have not really had the energy to support you Barack in this election. I would have wanted to do it, but when you have to rise 6 o clock in the morning just to get the most important written, it is […]

When I walked on the Camino, a pilgrimage from north east Spain to the sea of the Atlantic I changed my course. As they say, those who have walked the Camino, your walk will not start before you get home. At that time, I thought my walk would give me a place in the world […]

When we try to understand the problems we are in, we often reflect them in earlier times, and try to understand them in the light of the foregone. A popular parallel between today and other historical events is Rome. Some see us as a corrupt and falling superpower. A power that has seen better times, […]

A friend of mine was just to put to jail in Sweden. Ok I do not know him that well, but one of my close friends, is one his best friends. So we are, in a way closely connected. What was the crime of this friend? Was it to steal? No he has been living […]

We hear a lot about the presumption, that there is no ultimate goal to the fight against the Islamic State. Well there is; to beat the Islamic State. The way to that goal is however extremely difficult, basically because it is a very complicated work we are doing, and have been doing for a long […]

When we look at the problems we face with IS fighters in Denmark, we need to realize that we are in a war with them. Not just in Iraq and Syria, but also in Denmark. We try to be delusional about it, but when the IS supporters believe that the war also encompasses Denmark, and […]

We are entering a very difficult phase of the renewed discussion on family ethics in the Catholic church, the conclusions we draw, will be everlasting, or at least lasting for many, many years. So we have to be super serious about these discussion, base them on deep knowledge and established philosophical principles. Otherwise we risk […]

The family as a unit and as a frame for our development as human beings, has had a bit of a comeback within the frame of Catholic thinking, in fact the synod that is currently under way has a lot of promise on this area. You have to stay in your A-game. Do what you […]

The order of the European Union is slowly falling apart. The southern Euro countries are suffering under a fiscal policy they cannot sustain. The open borders are wrecking havoc in the Northern countries. The antinational propaganda is creating generations of citizens without any relationship to their home country or anything at all. Well, this is […]

Seen from a perspective of peace, the latest developments in the Middle East region has gone the wrong way. We did reach a solution in the Gaza/Israel war, that ended up in a situation where our kids can go to school, and the Gazans did not get totally destroyed, a winning scenario for both. But […]

Sometimes when you are ruling, you also become pretty isolated. You end up in that gilded tower, powerful but in want of some good friend to pup by and drink a glass of vodka or just have a friendly talk. I as one feel this often, being a blogger isolated, and having very few friend […]

We are backing one horse, without backing of the other horse. In the antique metaphysics and physics was one, in fact metaphysics was the most challenging part of the natural sciences, so to say. Today metaphysics, the lore of G-d is almost extinct. We believe this is a natural thing, and if we sometimes think […]

So the fight against the IS has entered a new stage, the coalition is more or less in place. The western world has come together to meet this new threat to democracy and freedom. There is however just one problem, and that is the fact, that we have a huge part of the population in […]

When you pray, often you do it to make amends, look critically upon yourself, have a little chat with spirit, reach out for another person you may miss, or just feel the comfort of silence and rest. But a few times in your life, you really are in a deep crisis, it can be in […]
