The same condition that prevented the Houston Rockets from winning a championship when James "Hardwired" Harden plied his trade in that market is the same condition that will prevent the  Philadelphia 76ers from winning a championship as long as James Harden is an employee. And what is that condition? In a word: Harmonics.  Some explanation is due of what it means to be Hardwired as that term relates to James Harden's inability to contribute towards winning a championship, as well as how Harmonics relates to the NBA. First. James "Hardwired" Harden is not wired to win team championships, any more than your refrigerator is wired to operate off the same wattage as your computer screen. Harden is hardwired to succeed and be recognized as an individual, and as an individual only. If that means the remainder of the team has some degree of success, that's fine with him. If it means they remain or become mediocre underachievers, that, too, is fine with him. When y...

Here is a link to an article from a study by the New York Department of Health, published in the the Bulletin of the American Statistical Association in 1922. The entire article, which deals with the "epochs" of influenza pandemics over a five hundred year period, is informative and instructive in light of the current Covid-19 pandemic.  Here is the most pertinent, Covid-related take-away:  "The fifth epoch (Spanish Flu) began in 1915 and is still in progress. The first pandemic invasion was the great wave of 1918, which has been followed by several revivals in various countries, some of serious proportions as to mortality. This, doubtless, was the most fatal of all influenza pandemics and was perhaps the greatest single catastrophe of modern times,not excepting wars. Therefore the duration of the first four epochs being roughly 24, 15, 28, and 12 years respectively, or an average of 19.8 years, it is clear that the epoch beginning in 1915 will very probably contain on...

There are only two places in the Bible where an individual is referred to as Supreme. In each case, that individual is the King.  In Biblical times, almost all countries were ruled by a King. The modern counterpart of the King in Democracies has the title of President, Prime Minister, Chancellor, etc. In autocracies or dictatorships, the person in charge of the government is referred to as, in the example of North Korea's Leader, Supreme Marshall, or sometimes simply as Supreme Leader or Supreme commander. People who so freely bandy about the words "white supremacy" have given little thought as to what the word "supreme" really means, especially in its socio-political and religious contexts.  In those contexts, as we have pointed out, only one person in a country is truly supreme, and that is the person at the head of the government. Biblically, Kings were assigned the attribute of "supremacy" because they were the earthly beings who exercised civil au...

  In President Biden's address to a partial Congress last night and in Senator Tim Scott's response, we heard two starkly contrasting answers to the Biblical question, "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" (Mark 8:36) President Biden, who could not even bring himself to utter the words "under God" after pronouncing us "One nation" during his speech, answered the question with "Everything." Senator Scott answered with "Nothing."  The most compromised President in American history, jointly owned by the Chinese government, the Democrat party, and the Media, would gain the world. Senator Scott, on the other hand, a professing Christian who knows what the real prize is and who knows who wields the real power, would not forfeit his soul for power or any other worldly gain. How refreshing it would be to have a President who, at the very least, knew the correct answer to the aforement...

Soon, people will be able to say that they are card-carrying "Kamala Harris card" carriers (see image below).. What else is on the Kamala Harris card? Nothing, presumably just Kamala Harris. And you don't even get a piece of bubble gum. They say they don't want your money . . . now. But as soon as the card gets printed, it will be available for the price of a donation to the DemocRAT party. And where will that money go? Well, you can be sure it won't go toward anything to help YOU, as a citizen or individual. Your donation will go towards the care and feeding of the Washington, D. C. Swamp Rats. What a racket!

Joe Biden is owned by the Chinese, and because he is owned by the Chinese he is also owned  by the radically-leftist Democrat party and by the Media. Had this not been true, he would never have been nominated or elected. Here's how it all shakes out. The China Compromise It is plainly and clearly established that Joe Biden is in bed with the Chinese. His son, Hunter Biden, is little more than the laundryman for the money and perks that Joe Biden receives from the Chicoms. The Chinese, naturally, have taken advantage of the compromise and will increasingly do so for the next four years ("mi compromiso es tu compromiso" when it comes to soon-to-be President Kamala Harris, whose future role as President was sealed by Biden's Chinese compromise).  ". . . so help me, China." The Socialist-Democrat Party Compromise It is plain to see that Joe Biden would not have been the Democrat nominee for President of the United States, save for his Chinese compromise, which l...

I don't give a rat's patootie that professional athletes have a "large platform." What does that mean, anyway? Hitler had a "large platform." So did Stalin. And Marx. And Al Capone. Is there some natural correlation between fame and good sense? Fame and wisdom? Infamy and honesty? Fame and holiness? I know people who don't have a "large platform" but have wisdom, knowledge and experience that far surpass that of most professional athletes, most of whom barely (and usually fraudulently) obtained a college degree. Remember back when they aired that program "Scared Straight?" The felonious prisoners in that show had a "large platform," yet I did not hear anybody asking them for their take on social issues.  Polls show that most people don't trust politicians or journalists. But we trust and hang on every word that a famous athlete utters? What's with THAT?  It's Not How Fast You Are News flash: running a 4.4 40-yard...
