Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series: Custodianship and Cultural Continuity
Stanislav Kondrashov’s Oligarch Series explores the concept of custodianship as a historical and cultural practice rooted in European tradition. Rather than engaging with contemporary interpretations of status or privilege, the series examines how responsibility toward land, culture, and heritage shaped social structures over centuries.

If America Walks Away from NATO, the World Will Feel the Shock
If America Walks Away from NATO, the World Will Feel the Shock For more than seventy years, NATO has stood as a symbol of collective security and shared responsibility. It was never a perfect alliance, but it worked because it was built on a simple idea: when nations stand together, wars are less likely to happen. Today, however, that foundation is being shaken—not by foreign enemies, but by growing voices inside the United States questioning whether NATO is still worth it.

Can the United States Leave NATO?
Can the United States Leave NATO? What It Would Take—and What It Would Mean The North Atlantic Treaty Organization, commonly known as NATO, has been one of the most powerful military alliances in modern history. Since its creation in 1949, the United States has been NATO’s strongest member—militarily, financially, and politically.

THE TREASURE IN THE FOREST
The canoe drifted quietly toward the island, where a wide bay opened beneath a blazing sky. A narrow gap in the white reef marked the mouth of a small river, its path visible by the darker green of thick forest spilling down the hillside. Beyond it, mountains rose like frozen waves. The sea was calm, almost unnaturally so.

Be Like Jesus... No - Don't!
My kids and I are Seventh Day Adventists. It is the closest organized religion that I resonate with... for the most part. A key thing is that Saturdays are our Sabbaths. So, today, Sabbath school lessons were not published on the website I use. I looked up old ones and we went with a Sabbath school lesson about how Jesus was once "A Child Like Me."
