ANARCHY IS FAITH! A Journey Beyond Political Labels | Ep 103 I crossed back from "Communist Massachusetts" into the "The Free State" of New Hampshire. As I drove, I reflected on Christians and political parties. This video is for Christians identifying with any political party, whether Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, or others. The message? True freedom comes from faith, not politics. Inspired by a friend who transitioned from conservative Republican to anarchist-libertarian and a young woman who left the "Democrat plantation" for a life guided by the word of God, I explore the concept of anarchy. Anarchy, derived from Greek, means "without rulers," not "without rules." It's about natural laws and God's laws, which are superior to man-made laws. I discuss the definitions of atheism, theism, and agnosticism, emphasizing the importance of knowing oneself and one's beliefs. Those who don't believe in a supernatural God consider God to be the natural order, like gravity, which is constant and universal. The discussion extends to the idea of government as a potentially satanic entity opposing God's natural order. We explore the natural consequences of actions, such as the difference between murder and self-defense, and how empathy towards others' beliefs can lead to a more harmonious society. Join me in this philosophical journey as I advocate for a life guided by faith, free will, and understanding. Let's challenge the status quo and seek a deeper connection with the universe and each other. *Side Note:* I understand that as a speaker exploring unconventional viewpoints, my ideas may not align with everyone's beliefs.

On January 23, 2023, I captured my thoughts on living a moral life amidst societal chaos. While running errands, I reflected on the strength of diversity, the essence of anarcho-capitalism, and the importance of the non-aggression principle. Engaging with diverse perspectives on Twitter highlighted how diversity enriches our understanding. I explained anarcho-capitalism and its need for practical application, similar to scientific principles. The non-aggression principle was a key focus, stating that initiating force is immoral and only self-defense is justified. Anarchy is a state we can live in now. As Christians live their values despite societal opposition, we can live our anarchist principles within societal constraints. This includes making ethical choices, such as veganism, extending the non-aggression principle to all life. Living a moral life means navigating societal norms that may not align with our values. Sometimes, compromises are necessary to avoid more significant harm. The key is to work within the system while staying true to our principles. Join me as I break down these ideas into relatable insights, blending philosophy with practical advice. This episode is a call to action for those who value ethical living and want to align their daily actions with their principles.

*Self-Medication: Confronting Fear and Desire | Ep 101* Happy New Year! On January 3, 2024, I delved into the often misunderstood concept of self-medication and its implications. With a 45-minute drive ahead, I shared insights on the dangers of self-medicating and the importance of addressing health holistically. From discussing the difference between street drugs and prescribed medications to the significance of balancing chemical systems in our bodies, I emphasized the need for physical health, proper nutrition, and mindful practices. Drawing parallels from popular culture, such as Kratos' journey in 'God of War' and the resilience seen in 'The Shawshank Redemption,' I highlighted the importance of confronting our inner demons and working towards a balanced state of being. I also touched on meditation, not as a way to ignore our thoughts but to understand and address them. Stay tuned for more reflections and practical advice on maintaining health and navigating life's challenges.

*Veganism a Pro-Life Stance Against Abortion | Ep 99* Hello everyone, it's December 18th, 2023, and before dropping off Christmas sales at UPS, I had to share my thoughts on some pressing topics.

I discuss my journey as a vegan since 2015, guided by a commitment to reducing harm to all life forms. This episode examines the contradictions of being a Pro-Choice Vegan or a Pro-Life Omnivore and emphasizes the importance of consistent life ethics.

*Discovering the Power of Individuality and Community | Ep 98* On December 16, 2023, around 4:30 p.m. EST, I took a moment to share my reflections while running errands. As I gear up to release new content starting January 1st, I've improved my audio quality. This video delves into the importance of personal freedom and community building. I explore homeschooling, decentralized systems, autonomous organizations, and cryptocurrency. Through the lens of healthful living, I discuss the impact of government influence and cultural battles on our daily lives. I advocate for positive actions and peaceful parenting as essential elements for a thriving community. My societal observations emphasize the need to trust in a higher plan, whether divine or based on reason and evidence and redirect our energy toward creating an autonomous environment. I also touch on libertarian philosophy and anti-government principles, highlighting the value of focusing on positivity. Using Dylan Mulvaney as an example, I reflect on the importance of addressing issues within our communities rather than getting consumed by the actions of others. *Side Note:* I understand that as a speaker exploring unconventional viewpoints, my ideas may not align with everyone's beliefs.

Welcome to my channel, Dave Wright The Thinker! In today's episode, we dive deep into the nuanced debate surrounding the origins and evolution of holidays in the U.S., focusing on the tension between government-dictated celebrations and religious freedoms. Why is the government influencing when and how we observe Christian holidays? We'll explore the secularization of Christmas, the cultural vs. religious celebration of holidays, and how this reflects broader changes in American holiday culture. From the perspective of someone who grew up celebrating Greek Orthodox holidays, I bring a personal touch to this ideological exploration. I discuss how different religious observances—such as the varying dates for Greek Easter—offer a contrast to government-declared holidays. This episode also challenges the digital age’s impact on maintaining traditional values amidst government control and secular influence. Join me as we unravel the complexities of secular holidays, the Christmas secular debate, and how these dynamics play out in public holiday debates nationwide. This is more than just a reflection; it's a call to rethink how we celebrate and uphold the true meanings of our holidays in a rapidly evolving society.
