I’ve been studying the Constitution for several years, and the Bible for decades before that. As you might imagine, I’ve learned a lot about how to effectively study. One of the most important of those skills is to spot gossip being used as evidence to prove an argument.
Webster’s 1828 dictionary defines gossip as “To run about and tattle; to tell idle tales”, and let me tell you, there are plenty of idle tales told about the Constitution of the United States. The best way I’ve found to weed out such gossip actually comes from the Bible.
Since I’ve studied the Bible much longer than the Constitution, it should be no surprise that I first learned this technique from a verse of Scripture, Act chapter 17, verses 10-11:
“Then the brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. When they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews. These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.” I recommend we take some time, listen to what is being said, the go to the Constitution to see if what we are being told is true.” - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel

Who is in charge of your children? That has been a perennial question that has grown in importance over the last few years. When I was a child, it was understood that, with rare exceptions, parents were in charge of a child’s upbringing. This included medical, religious, and educational decisions. However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts. What happens when the goal of the experts differs from those of the parents? Who decides the future of the rising generations? It was understood that the state acted in loco parentis, in place of the parents, only for the safety of the child. A recent case in U.S. District Court shows that be it health departments, child services, schools, or even the courts. Government not only believes they know better than the parents, they are more than willing to act in loco parentis tyrannis.

With the release of ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence (AI) applications, there has been a lot of speculation and downright assertions about our future. With over 30 years of experience in Information Technology (IT), not more than a passing understanding of AIs, I've come to the conclusion that much of what I've heard is more science fiction than fact. A recent court case decided in the D.C. District Court revolved around one very important question. Do AIs have rights?
In this third installment of the three-part series on the branches of government, we look at the role of the third and weakest branch. At least that is what our Founding Fathers thought of it. What is the role of the federal judiciary? What are the extent of their powers, how do they related to the other two branches of government, and why is a proper understanding of the role of the judiciary critical if the United States is to remain a constitutional republic?

We all have priorities. We may prioritize work over family or visa versa. We may prioritize our belief in climate change over our own economic benefit. Or we may just prioritize a political movement over our rights and the rights of others. A quick look at some recent events and I think you’ll agree, some people’s priorities are showing. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

America has become an extremely litigious society. Not just because we have more attorney’s than doctors, but because most Americans, including those attorneys, don’t understand the supreme law of the land. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

With all of the rhetoric about the government “shutdown”, one would reasonably believe that the world is coming to an end because of the arrogance of the political parties. However, for the most part, this shutdown hasn’t roared over the lives of the American people, it’s meowed. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews
