The ultimate question is no longer "who am I" or "why am I here." These questions were answered in the earliest civilizations by philosophers and priests. Today we live in an age of such rapid advances in technology and science that the ultimate question must be rephrased: "what shall we be"?

The Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, a major figure in world politics and an ardent opponent of apartheid, was shot dead on the streets of Stockholm in February 1986. At the time of his death, Palme was deeply involved in Middle East diplomacy and was working under UN auspices to end the Iran Iraq war. Across Scandinavia, Palme's killing had an impact similar to that of the Kennedy assassinations in the United States and it ignited nearly as many conspiracy theories. Interest in the Palme slaying was most recently stirred by reports of the death of Christer Pettersson, who was tried for...

The mother of all conspiracy theories concerns the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Many of its elements have even become part of American folklore: the single bullet, the grassy knoll shooter, and the mysterious deaths of interested parties.

JFK Assassination Logic shows how to approach such conspiracy claims.

The Day We Gave Up Health. How in the world did we get so fat so fast Obesity is now well beyond acceptable limits and it continues to rise worldwide. Even children and animals are now prone to obesity. Have we become lazier in the last few decades or is it due to our growing addiction to foods. Has global obesity become a pandemic by design or by chance? Are we, as humans, in a new phase of evolution due to the consumption of a new genre of foods and substances that are entirely foreign to our bodies? Are we going to make it as a species through this new phase or wither and die? Will we,...

Culture War Cracked

Robert J. Antonellis discovers the real reasons behind why, as Americans, we are always at the losing side of the culture war - the trench warfare and gridlock that is spreading from Washington D.C. to Main Street USA.

Calling upon his roots as an industrial engineer, Robert digs deep into our country's past and ultimately discovers and deciphers America's version of the Rosetta Stone -- the key that details who launched the culture war against America and why? It maps the dark and secret connections...
