Theses of Ascesis

It would seem that in the world of quick pleasures, the practice of asceticism has no place or even right to exist. However, it turns out that abstinence is the key to most of what a person desires.

You’ll Never Believe It!

So why has there been so much talk lately of people not believing in science? Several hundred years of science in practice, and 100% effectiveness (sooner or later) in rejecting erroneous ideas and hypotheses—are these not sufficient arguments for abandoning the notion of “faith in science” and simply trusting it?

The Spirit of the Gift

Gifts release social energy. They are the opposite of commodities, which are bought or sold and do not help create communities. Rather, the gift strengthens bonds, builds trust, builds community.
