(ThyBlackMan.com) Elon Musk is a force of nature. He has assembled the greatest fortune (more than $450 billion) in the history of mankind with a maniacal work ethic and fearlessness in challenging orthodoxies or tradition. He is a one-man show at SpaceX, Tesla and X (formerly twitter), and is poised to dominate artificial intelligence. Mr. Musk is a marvelous combination of Henry Ford and Thomas Edison in the private sector. […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) As I write this article, I would prefer to be writing about the love sign at the Super Bowl in New Orleans a few days ago.  That message was preceded by something even more important: END RACISM. No matter how necessary those words about love are, END RACISM are words yelling louder. Ending racism doesn’t depend upon loving anybody.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Serious problems should be met with serious solutions. We have serious problems, namely a fast-growing debt and a need to extend some tax cuts in an unforgiving environment where interest rates are high and inflation is rising again. Unfortunately, despite a new mandate, House Republicans have yet to rise to the occasion. Their latest budget blueprint shows that fiscal responsibility vanishes the moment real choices arise.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Contrary winds have been blowing across the path of Christians for centuries, and over those same centuries events have occurred that were capable of destroying one’s faith in God, or debilitating the walk and witness of believers to make them ineffective. But still the faith “once delivered to the saints”, to quote Jude 1:3, refused to lie down and die. People of different persuasions, philosophers, atheists, scientists, scholars, historians, […]
