Humanity’s Greatest Promise: The Birth of Universal Human Rights
Introduction On December 10, 1948, in the aftermath of two catastrophic world wars, the United Nations General Assembly adopted one of the most significant documents in human history: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). Crafted as a global roadmap for freedom, dignity, and justice, the UDHR stands as a powerful commitment by the world community to uphold the inherent rights of every individual. In an age still healing from genocide, oppression, and war, this declaration became a beacon of hope, guiding the path toward a more humane world.

What Would World War III Look Like Today? When people imagine World War III, many still picture massive armies, tanks rolling across borders, and cities reduced to rubble by bombs.

A Jealous God. Content Warning.
My boyfriend and I had a conversation about religion the other day that sparked my thoughts on something that has long confused me. My God is from the Bible and jealousy is often deemed a "bad" emotion, so... why does the Bible say that God is a jealous God?

The Past Is Louder Than We Think. AI-Generated.
The Past Is Louder Than We Think We like to believe the past is quiet. That it sits politely in history books, trapped between dates and footnotes, waiting to be remembered only when exams demand it or anniversaries arrive. We treat it as something finished—sealed, settled, harmless. But the truth is far less comfortable. The past is not silent. It is loud, persistent, and endlessly present, shaping our lives in ways we rarely stop to notice.

Can Global Peace Exist Without a Global Authority?
Can Global Peace Exist Without a Global Authority? The idea of global peace without a global authority sounds appealing to some people. In theory, nations could manage their own affairs, respect each other’s borders, and resolve disputes peacefully without an overarching institution telling them what to do. Supporters of this view argue that global bodies are slow, biased, and often ineffective. But history and current events raise a difficult question: can lasting global peace truly exist without a central authority to guide it?
