I noted a red flag when 'the-science' became a monolithic proper noun/weaponised term. One of the hardest questions to answer plainly, is "what is ____" [insert term or object of choice].
Steven, thanks for sharing the "inner workings" of Pitchfork Papers. I had gathered some of your ideals from past newsletters, but to read them as unifying principles was insightful.
I share you concern of external meddling in the affairs of business. As a life-long restauranteaur, I would rather write about how to make an excellent hamburger. However, I find myself drawn towards defending my business from the tyrants and charletans who seek to politicize my hamburger for their personal gain.
From my limited understanding it seems Buddhism offers some profound insights even beyond those of the western religions. I should emphasize I am not intelligent enough to be sure of this.
Stephen, thank you for this explication of “why” you write and “who” you are committed to be. When we are next together, I wish to hear more about Machiavelli, King David and Jesus.
Great introduction! I'm glad I found you. Your 7 beliefs are wonderful. I also tip my hat to Ben Hunt who has inspired me in both finance and politics. My new Substack will offer political discourse because I, too, feel politically homeless. I focus on common sense with liberty & dignity. My goal is to heal national divisions and rebirth a healthly system. Keep writing!! Thanks!
Thanks for the reading list!

Stephen, I found you by chance through Lykeion and I hope I will never lose you again!
Very inspiring and heartening. I love your musings.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write your weekly posts. You have no idea how much pleasure I get from reading them.
Kind regards

Beautiful and thanks for sharing.

Thank you. That is very, very helpful. A shortcut to reading your older posts and figuring it out for myself. (Although I will read your older posts.)
