The Necessity of Contrast: A Case for Eternity, Consciousness, and Divine Intent

The Necessity of Contrast: A Case for Eternity, Consciousness, and Divine Intent The Necessity of Contrast: A Case for Eternity, Consciousness, and Divine Intent Published: April 25, 2025 We often seek assurance of what comes after death—some hint, some proof, that there’s something more than this finite world. My mom once shared a concept with me that, the more I sit with it, the more it seems to answer more than just the question of an afterlife. It might just explain why we exist at all. The concept is simple, yet expansive: You can’t truly define or perceive the eternal unless it follows something finite. Infinity, by itself, just is . It has no boundaries, no context, and no meaning unless there’s something to compare it to—something limited, temporary, and perishable. That’s us. Human life is finite, and it is in this limitation that the possibility of eternity is revealed. This framework doesn’t just apply to lif...

The Federal Power Grab: A Warning Against the Erosion of State Authority

The Federal Power Grab: A Warning Against the Erosion of State Authority The Federal Power Grab: A Warning Against the Erosion of State Authority Published: April 23, 2025 By: Killian Yates A sweeping consolidation of military power is underway—and the warning signs are flashing red. Legislative Proposal 480 (LP 480) , signed into law as part of the FY2024 National Defense Authorization Act, allows the U.S. Space Force to seize control of state Air National Guard units performing space-related missions. This is being done without the constitutionally required consent of governors , a move that governors from all 55 states and territories have openly condemned. “We are particularly alarmed by indications that Space Force leadership is aggressively pushing a plan to fully implement Legislative Proposal 480 (LP 480) and remove units from states by the end of the year. There has still been no ...

Self-Defense Is Not a Second Amendment Issue

Self-Defense Is Not a Second Amendment Issue Self-Defense Is Not a Second Amendment Issue By Killian Yates | April 21, 2025 The ongoing debate around the Second Amendment often misses a foundational truth: the right to self-defense is not primarily derived from the right to bear arms. The Second Amendment was written in the context of a collective responsibility— the formation of a "well-regulated militia" for the security of a free state. That does not automatically extend to individual personal protection. “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” — Second Amendment, U.S. Constitution The true individual right to self-defense is not in the Second Amendment—it's in the preamble to the Constitution itself, which establishes the purpose of governme...

Data First, Not Diets: A Smarter Way to Manage Traffic

Data First, Not Diets: A Smarter Way to Manage Traffic Data First, Not Diets: A Smarter Way to Manage Traffic Published: April 21, 2025 This Newsmax article on road diets shows how we’re solving the wrong problem with the wrong tools. Traffic management isn't about removing lanes and slowing things down—it’s about understanding how, when, and where traffic actually flows. And that means we need *real data*. Data that tells the truth, not theories based on outdated assumptions or political agendas. Here’s how we start doing it right. Step 1: Connect GPS and Road Data First, we partner with companies like Google, Apple, and Waze to get anonymized GPS data across road networks. This gives us a dynamic, real-time map of where traffic is building, where it’s backing up, and how fast it’s flowing. Step 2: Unify Intersections with AI Monitoring S...

Pope Francis I has passed away - Monday April 21, 2025

In Memoriam: Pope Francis - Catholic Church Information In Memoriam: Pope Francis Official cause of death: stroke and heart failure Today, we mark the passing of a global spiritual leader whose presence impacted millions. While I did not know him personally, nor followed his life closely, I recognize the weight of this moment for Catholics and for the broader faith community around the world. The role of the Pope has always been more than ceremonial — it's a symbol of continuity, reflection, and conscience in turbulent times. In a world so often divided, his passing reminds us of the need for moral grounding, thoughtful leadership, and humility. My thoughts are with those who are mourning, and I stand with all who now look to the future with heavy hearts, seeking wisdom, stability, and hope in the traditions they cherish. — Killian Yates Featured Videos on the Legacy of Pope Francis ...

A New Vision for School Lunches and Public Assistance

Feeding the Nation, Nourishing the Future: A New Vision for School Lunches and Public Assistance Feeding the Nation, Nourishing the Future: A New Vision for School Lunches and Public Assistance Published: April 20, 2025 Figure: A blueprint for nourishing families through decentralized public benefit models and local economic engines. Decentralizing Nutrition, Empowering Communities Instead of relying on centralized food contracts packed with preservatives, we propose a system where local restaurants—diners, food trucks, and family-run kitchens—serve as the primary providers of school lunches. Their participation would not only improve food quality and freshness but also qualify them for partial tax offsets, effectively substituting a portion of their federal or state tax burden with active community service. Federal and state rotating inspectors, including from the ...
