Great Replacement

When white racists or supremacists claim that the racial mix of their country that belongs to their ancestors who first came to the land is now being disrupted by the growing population of the black and people of color, and by the influx of both illegal and legal immigrants from third world countries, and they need to do something about it to prevent themselves from becoming the minority group in the country.

From the US to the UK to Australia, right-wing politicians are promoting the great replacement theory among frustrated or unemployed voters, who feel that their lands are being invaded by Mohammedans, Africans, Asians, and refugees, who would one day form the majority of the population, if there is zero restriction on immigration.

Mathematically Irreverent

Christ and Corona

When Jesus Christ, the King of kings, allows Satan, the “father of lies,” to call on Ms. Corona, the “queen of the viruses,” to roam the earth (and possibly hell, too) to infect millions of people, and to prematurely end the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, young and old, rich and poor, or smart and dumb.

Although God has the power to stop the pandemic any time, however, it looks like He decided not to get involved in any conversation between Christ and Corona, or between Corona and Lucifer, for whatever spiritual reasons unknown to the earthlings.

The God Who Numbers Your Days

The awareness that you need to treasure your time on this side of eternity until your last heartbeat, living a purposeful life, and not wasting your life away, complaining that life is not fair, or living dishonestly to acquiring material wealth.

If only more people were to count their blessings, be it beauty, brain, health, or wealth, there would be less comparing with, and complaining about, others—when they can tell friends and foes that “the God who numbers your days is also the One you’d remember in both good and difficult times.”

Masiku

Short for “mask haiku.” A three-line poem, written in a 5-7-5 syllable count, that can help activate the oft-atrophied right part of the brain, which is responsible for creativity in the arts.

Let’s indulge in some masikus.

MASK & MATH

Both hide much from us.
If we could see what’s behind
Fear would have to flee.

THE MASK OF MATH

Math won’t reveal much
Until we use our mind’s eye
To see its beauty.

THE MATH OF MASK

Mask diplomacy.
China and Russia ship them
By the ten millions.

Wi-Fi Idol

When someone spends an inordinate amount of time daily to keep themselves hooked to the internet that a slight withdrawal from social networks could trigger a “digital fit” in them, which would adversely affect their well-being.

Instead of treating the Wi-Fi as a blessing rather than a curse, Jane has allowed the Wi-fi idol to enslave her to the point that she’d need to go for spiritual deliverance to free her from digital addiction.
