ANARCHY IS FAITH! A Journey Beyond Political Labels | Ep 103
Dave Wright The ThinkerANARCHY 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.

Self Medication: Confronting Fear and Desire | Ep 101
Dave Wright The Thinker*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.

Discovering the Power of Individuality and Community | Ep 98
DaveWrightTheThinker*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.
