Visionary Non-Fiction
Hard questions are the ones really worth asking. I'm no scientist, nor am I a sociologist. Still, I've seen much of the world and I've experienced enough beauty and horror, wealth and hardship, to know that we need to see beyond the smokescreen of politics and social contentions. We need to drop the things that divide us and wake up to the real challenges that will face us and the next generations. Once we do that, we will prevail over whatever perils lie beyond the turbulent horizon.
Universal Utopia
Are profits our principal reason for existing? Are we not more than the sum of our belongings? Then why don't we ACT like it?
At the end of the day, it’s obvious enough to most of us that CONSUMER SOCIETY isn’t perfect, but is it at least what it promised it would be? Has trading off our CONSCIENCE and CULTURAL IDENTITY for MATERIAL WEALTH really brought about a richer life and greater freedom? Will consumerism ever bring about happiness?
"UNIVERSAL UTOPIA" is a work of reflection on the course that contemporary society is taking with regards to divorcing traditional values that once ruled themes like moral flexibility, business ethics, relativism and the surrender of personal conscience.
​
It issues a warning against giving up personal responsibility over one's decisions, and it offers insight into how we could go about reverting what went wrong.
Was it all worth it? Read about it, reflect on it.

Morals
Dilemma for the Anesthetised Mind
Are you a moral individual? Do you consider yourself an ethical person? What about in business? Does success justify our bending a few rules? Is it all fair game in love and war?
In "MORALS: Dilemma for the Anesthetised Mind" you'll find an introductory essay discussing the impact of a moral individual in a social context that invites people to escape the moral repercussions of their decisions.
The contentions between STATE, RELIGION, SCIENCE and SECULARISM are briefly explored alongside the idea of PERSONAL CONSCIENCE and FREE WILL.
Is Religion the villain in modern democracies, or is the State more intrusive? Is mere pluralism the width and breadth of a genuine democracy? Should MORAL TOLERANCE be infinite? What part does INTOLERANCE play?
Explore these subjects and awaken your mind to the central dilemma of our generation.
